Sonic Youth
When DGC Records signed Nirvana in 1991, one of DGC's A&R reps expressed the opinion that, with plenty of touring and the right promotion, the new act might sell as well as its labelmate and touring partner Sonic Youth. The surprise success of Nevermind upended previous commercial expectations for Sonic Youth (among other established alternative ...

Various Artists
All of the tracks on Alternative NRG were recorded on solar-powered equipment -- it's a gimmick, because without the ploy no one would be interested in this hodgepodge of live tracks from mainstream alternative groups, including R.E.M., U2, James, Midnight Oil, Soundgarden, and UB40. While of the tracks are of interest to hardcore fans, any casual ...

Danielia Cotton
Hopewell, N.J. native Danielia Cotton called her first full-length album Small White Town because the singer/songwriter grew up in a small town that was, in fact, largely white. But Cotton herself isn't white. She's African-American, and she's the type of African-American artist who -- like Tracy Chapman, Living Colour, Joan Armatrading, 24-7 Spyz ...

Beaster

by
Sugar
Sugar's Beaster is actually outtakes from their previous dynamite album, Copper Blue. It comes off as some kind of deranged, ugly sister of that sparking album, a yin to Copper's yang, a violent, angry, and seething wall of aggression with (this time) little concession to Bob Mould's pop prowess. Perhaps the most densely recorded, heavy trip the ...

by
Sonny Fortune
It is not surprising to see Sonny Fortune pay tribute to John Coltrane. After all, perhaps more than anyone else, Fortune is carrying the torch that was handed off when Coltrane died -- his style owes a lot to the sax player, and some of his best work has been with others who contributed to the Coltrane legacy, namely the great McCoy Tyner and ...

Treadmill Trackstar
Treadmill Trackstar's major-label debut, Only This, is one of the better examples of post-Hootie & the Blowfish acoustic adult alternative pop. Where many of their peers concentrate on rootsy strumming, Treadmill Trackstar have zeroed in on the hypnotic elements of jangle, resulting in a record that's melodic and often enchanting. Lead singer ...

The pitfall of Stereo Sushi is undoubtedly its packaging. One look at its visions of anime and J-pop and a sensory overdose courtesy of too much sugar immediately comes to mind. No doubt many anime or manga fans have purchased this series, only to be let down by its inner contents. However, those familiar with the Hed Kandi label will know that no ...
