one of the best comps everJanuary 15, 2005 rydei(Seattle, WA USA) i got into a LOT of bands because of this compliation. it is varied, but nearly all the tracks are outstanding. amazon needs to fix their filing of this because it doesn't show up in the Kill Rock Stars series list with the other 2 (kill rock stars and stars kill rock). highly recommended. it doesn't say it on the track list but "Puffin Stars" is by Helium and is the only place to get that track.
Good compilation, but ironic mediumJanuary 26, 2001 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a good compilation from the Kill Rock Stars label. All the artists are punk rock or indie or whatever. I came to the record attracted by the Boredoms and Free Kitten songs. But a lot of the other artists I hadn't heard of turned out to be really good. This compilation might just serve as an introduction to these artists but the album is fun to listen to by itself too. I bought the LP version and have never seen the CD. It's really rather funny they did release this on CD because this record is clearly anti-CD. On the LP there is an essay by Sun Ra which explains that CDs are the lie which the industry uses to over charge the consumers.
