 KILL
YOUR IDOLS- Funeral for a Feeling (Side
One Dummy) Seventeen fast, hard punk rock songs with vocals of
screaming variety. The music is most entertaining, but the singing did get
on my nerves after listening to about nine tunes. However, the intense
music really helped even out the nerve issue. “Fall Out” is great.
Hey, all the songs are cool. – Denis Sheehan

 MADCAP-
Stand Your Ground (Side
One Dummy) Catchy, if not particularly inventive, punk rock for the
post-Rancid set. There’s no arguing that Madcap has attitude in spades
and the band conveys a fun,
"the gang’s all here" vibe that’s probably a blast live.
Tackling issues less predictable and done-to-death than how much MTV,
"corporations," radio, and the government suck might make Madcap
more palatable and memorable, though. Regardless, there’s more than
enough to enjoy if you like your guitars loud, songs fast, and
attention-span short. ‘Stand Your Ground’ doesn’t veer from
already-established formulas, but the band gives it all they’ve got and
makes one hell of a noise. – Chris Wissmuller
