bold = exclusive track / normal = non-exclusive track / italic = non-metal

J.D. PETERSON - The View From My Back Door
Female fronted pop/rock.
LARY PAUL - Desperate
Enjoyable powerpop.
OUTCAST - You Ought To Be In Pictures
Alternative rock with a throwback 60s rock & roll style.
KRYSTAL X - Pieces
New wave.
OCTAVIA - You've Succeeded (And Made Me Hate You)
Bluesy pop country from her album.
THE SNEAKS - Planet Love
It might be redundant to call a rockabilly song irritating but in this case I feel like it's necessary.

MAKESHIFT - Now That It's Over
Pop/rock which mixes AOR, country, and funk.
THE ISSUE - Bedroom Screams
Indie rock/new wave. They released a cassette and also appeared on another compilation, but this track is exclusive.
JEANNE BARNETT & THE EMERGENCY BAND
Terrible pop/rock that starts with a Cheech and Chong clip.
THE POORBOYS - I've Got A Secret
Country tinged powerpop.
THE SKY BRADY BAND - My Son
A slow and rather wimpy hard rock song, with the keyboards and what I guess is him talking to his son, but it does get heavier towards the end.
