I found the bill for all these cassettes. My memory was poor -- they were three for two dollars, not two for a dollar. Not such a great deal after all.

Okay, enough sarcasm, back to the music:

THE POSIES -- AMAZING DISGRACE. I might miss the post-grunge years had all the music contained such sunny harmonies. This album is basically what you would expect from the people who wrote "Dream All Day". It's a worthy successor to "Bandwagonesque" -- if Teenage Fanclub had chosen to stick with rawk and record such a sequel.

T99 -- CHILDREN OF CHAOS. Amazingly, this isn't "Anasthasia" plus support! Some parts are shockingly modern -- "The Skydreamer"'s lushness wouldn't be out of place on Ulrich Schauss' last album. Of course, the sirens and vocals have aged, but as far as early 90's rave albums go, this absolutely kills the Church of Extacy record.
