       The long-running side project of Deviant (Mary, Pimmel,
       Six Inches). Laid to rest in 1995. Check the AMR Store 
       for the two volume retrospective, Clonography. 
       Volume One emphasises the noiser, more experimental early 
       material, where Volume Two shows the later more 
       song-oriented efforts.

       Long time publisher of War Against The Idiots, Liam 
       has had one foot in music for some time. Punk bands.

       Prog-rock out of North Carolina. Tull and Crimson

  MATT MORAN'S CONTRA BAND                            website mp3s
       DEVO-esque cocktail music from Ohio. Add some arty
       60's overtones and you get, for lack of a better term,
       evil new age music. Multi-instrumentalist Matt is just
       getting started... Current release: Operation Groove 
  ----------------------------------------------------------------

       Buck Naked and Dave Shameless are the undisputed 
       acoustic punk kings of kitsch rock. 
       Current release: Sexxxy Americanz (expected 7/20)
  ----------------------------------------------------------------
  THE NEWHEADS
       Self proclaimed "worst band in Vancouver" had such 
       low self-esteem that they paid to see a Circle Jerks
       show that they were opening for. 
       We've uncovered a lost recording and plan to release
       it. Some things just need to exist.
  ----------------------------------------------------------------

       Short lived demolition rock outfit out of Vancouver--
       punk-fueled rockers and an some emotional mid-tempo 
       numbers. Only release: Average Joes (1988)
