THE FLICKS - Down Town And Back Again
Terribly boring rock 'n' roll.
STRIPSEARCH - Didn't Want To Break Your Heart
New wavey pop/rock. This band also appeared on the Dream Sequence LP.
RANDALL TOLMAN - Oceanography
Another band that appeared on Dream Sequence, here they remind me of an inferior OINGO BOINGO.
GAZZARA - Queenie
Awful RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS style funky hard rock.
ROGER EVERETT - Lack Of Confidence
Fast-paced melodic southern rock.
BANZAI PLAINS - Black And White
Pleasant yet interesting melodic rock, somewhere between RED RIDER and THE FIXX.

TRANZLATOR - In The City
An early RATT like sound that's not bad but a little too slow paced to really excite.
TOMMI GUNN - Blue And Grey
Not the Hollywood band, but rather the one who released the Public Enemy #1 LP. Features early METALLICA riffs with sleazy vocals and a tin can production.
POWER RAGE - Guilty As Charged
Sounds like NASTY SAVAGE with some M.O.D. style mosh breaks.
BITTER ROUTE - True Love
Unintelligible blues rock.
SKILLET CHILDREN - Haven't You Ever Noticed
Alternative rock.
MIKE WRAN - Violence
Dark psychedelic rock.
STARZEND - The Craft
Folk rock.
