Tracklist side A:
TENNIE KOMAR - Savannah Le Mar
Gothic/new wave.
SIDESTREETS - In The Shadows
Punk/powerpop with some hard rocking 70s guitar work for a nice touch.
FOREVER 19 - Into The Night
Powerpop.
SECRET FUNCTION - When I Close My Eyes
Bad pop/rock.
THE COUNT/D-10 - New Changes
Featuring label founder Joe Viglione on guitar, this sounds like TALKING HEADS if TALKING HEADS sucked.
Tracklist side B:
3D - A Bit Like You
Even worse pop/rock.
THRUST - Adriane
Excellent sing-along melodic metal. Similar to their track on
Massachusetts Metal
but with a more pounding rhythm.
MICHAELS MESSINA - Half Of Nothing
Hard AOR. That's him getting out of the car on the cover.
HOT PURSUIT - Shy Away
Brilliant melodic rock.
MAX THORN - Doorways
Powerpop with flutes.
SPARKY LANE - Dineen
Pop/rock.
BLOWFISH - City Magazine
Short comedy piece backed by synth music.
