1. Live Fast Die - Bandana Thrash Record (Dead Beat Records)
A band with the catchiest songs around. And a truly appalling drinking problem!
2.Team Robespierre - 10" (Chrome Peeler)
Squatters like them. Metal girls like them. Being a happy combination of the two, FreshKills like them.
3.Bellmer Dolls - The Big Cats Will Throw Themselves Over (Hungry Eye)
Fellow Birthday Party fetishist kid touchers. Great EP.
4.The Baby Shakes - Stuck On Blue 7" (Shit Sandwich)
Catchy as all hell. Don't call them cute. They fucking hate that.
5.Made Out Of Babies - Coward (Neurot)
Steve Albini produced. When ever I DJ a song off this album every Jesus Lizard weirdo in the room rushes the DJ booth and asks who it is. I usually just make something up.
6.Breakup Breakdown - Tonight (Cordless)
Every pop band in NY sucks. I work at Sin-e', I know. These guys are the only exception.
7.Foreign Islands - Fine Dining With The Future (Nude)
Remember that thing I said about NY pop bands? Well it's even grimmer for dance punk bands.
Foreign Islands is the ONLY punky dancy hardcorey whatevery band in New York that has actual black people and homosexuals at their shows. All the other ones just have bloggers.
8.Services - Your Desire Is My Business (A Touch Of Class)
The most innovative album of the last/next five years. I'm not effing kidding. In
10 years, every band in Alternative Press will sound like this. The haircuts will be outstanding.
9.Baby Dayliner - Critics Pass Away (Brassland)
Another one who doesn't sound like anyone else out there. Great Songs. Looks good in a wifebeater.
10.Kid Congo and The Pink Monkeybirds - Philosophy and Underwear (New York Night Train)
Kid was in the Gun Club. Kid was in The Bad Seeds. Kid was in The Cramps. This album is smooth as fuck and you owe him.
