A madcap mix of the bizarre and the beautiful. ALICE DONUT sends me "Three Sisters". Infectious riffs, haunting vocals and a kick ass groove - these guys are one of the best 'unknowns' on the planet. Check 'em out and tell them the Waste sent ya. |

and passionate, nyc country folk rock from the heart. www.jessemalin.com www.artemisrecords.com |
 |
STERLING ROSWELL sends me "The Psychedelic Ubik". A spaced
out assemblage of jangely chords, ethereal vocals and after hours beats. Strange
mod sounds from across the pond... if you like 'em weird, this one's for you. www.jungle-records.com |

Ready to take you on... ROCKETS AND CARS send me "Conversation at
30,000 Feet". A driving collection of rock that rolls through the night.
Radio friendly power pop that shows no signs of stopping. www.motorroomrecords.com |

Here's a band that lives up to its name - PIGMY LOVE CIRCUS sends me "The
Power of Beef". Full on rock-n-death with all the trimmings. Highlights

& SKULLS, BLACK FURIES, THE AMPUTEES, DIRTY POWER and the FLESHIES

latest metal monster from UNEARTH. Lightening guitars, razor blade vocals
and powerful songs - these boys deliver. www.metalblade.com |

TEXAS THIEVES send me "Killer On Craigs List". Snappy post
punk with somthing to prove. Attitude and stolen licks... they remind me of something.

 |
One disc, two albums "Freak Show" & "Crawling Blind"
come to me from THE FREEZE. Garage punk with a punch, crusher guitars and

must be great live. Dr. Strange Records PO Box 1058, Alta Loma CA 91701 |

Friggin ahh... THE RITES send me "Wish You Never Knew". Wonderful
aggression, a fast and ferocious mix of septic speed and doom. Pure saturation for
the darker senses. www.coalition-records.com |

smart guitars and hellbound vocals. A 3 AM sound that grinds and rocks with the best
of 'em. www.amps2eleven.com |

sound to tear ya down, rockin rage with a whole lot of heavy. If your tired of the
