2, "Numb", Island/KG Yep! New ! It 's industrial, it's full ol booming bass, birds chirp, organs play (well, just a few notes) and UEdge sings! Though he doesn't show off his incredible range (he sings in monotone), Edge takes us through from beginning to end of the U2 new single and the effect is numbing (surprise!). This is the epitome of cool for U2 with a different texture and a different direction from past NUMB releases. Zooropa is coming and "Numb" is an intriguing song worth checking out. Hey. It's U2!!

He wanted to be able to use a lot of musi- cal friends and this was the best way to have them all play. Thanks Matt.

Ron Stryker («LB) A 26 22 The Posies "Frosting On The Beater" says his station is taking a different approach.

I was also pleased to find that the KISS "Aive Ill" W 27 29 band still packed a terrific punch. Songs like "Just Between You And Me" and A 41 33 Bon Jovi "Keep The Faith" "Roller" were American hits from coast to coast in the 70's and still remain in the 25 31 Midnight Oil "Earth And Sun And Moon" classic file in small, medium, and major markets such as Chicago, Minneapolis, 23 .0 Blues Traveler "Save His Soul" and St. Louis. 29 33 Screaming Trees "Sweet Oblivion" A 42 34 Allgood "Allgood" ttitude is a great name for the new project (which was injected with even A 43 35 Gin Blossoms "New Miserable..." more during the transition from tape to disc). The opener, "Givin' lt, Takin' II" really cranks with the "A" vocals of Myles Goodwin and the force of 30 36 Vince Neil "Exposed" A Brian Greenway and Steve Segal on guitar. The Canadian winds have blown April 33 37 Circus Of Power "Magic And Madness" Wine's familiar sound back over the border with verve for fans old and new. If you 38 Hooters "Out Of Body" dig the sound of a good slide, you'll find some masterful riffs on "Good From Far" 35 39 Toto "Kingdom Of Desire" (Far From Good)". "Hour Of Need" is a solid ballad when you'd like to slow down 33 40 Def Leppard "Adrenalize" the pace (don't forget the massive success of "Just" to give you an idea). The clip A47 41 Bruce Hornsby "Harbor Lights" picks up again with a real rock hit we already know called "Here's Lookin' At You A45 42 Arcade "Arcade" Kid" (it sounds a little like something done by Vince Neil). It's been on the Hard 36 43 Aimee Mann 'Whatever" Hundred for 9 weeks and still moving up with a bullet and plenty of momentum Blind Melon "Blind Melon" (it's also had a fine C. OR. run).

As the album gets deeper, it gets better (and heavier). "Emotional Dreams" is dynamic, with 59 47 Savatage "Savatage" interesting time changes and syncopation to complement the harmonies.

JOHN CAMPBELL -- AN APPRECIATION By Earl Douglas first saw John Campbell at The Benson & Hedges Blues Festival a few years I ago at The Beacon Theater and my first reaction to him was that the cat was spooky. I mean, here was this tall, lean, menacing looking guy sitting on a stool, scowling, not singing the blues and playing the National steel guitar like he invented it. A few years later, I caught him at The Lone Star Roadhouse His debut album releases July 20 where threw him a party to celebrate the release of his new CD Featuring "Howlin Mercy". The show was a literal history of the blues - in fact, during the "1km Does It Feel" stunning "Saddle Up My Pony", Campbell effortlessly displayed the styles of Going for Adds June 29 Robert Johnston, Leadbelly, and Lonnie Johnson. You needed a forklift to lift my jaw off the ground. I was absolutely astounded. "Think t,t Fawn % Mt hear of John Campbell's passing on June 13th of heart failure left me in a o playing lint' Tstate of shock and sadness. The cruel irony of his death was that things were finally starting to happen for John both personally and professionally. Ilendria riffs." "Nowlin Mercy" received rave reviews and he had just completed a successful tour of Europe. He was slated to do some opening dates for Buddy Guy. If you -BiUturard had the opportunity to speak with him, John never missed a chance to talk about his wife Dolly or his baby daughter Paris. "People are getting out that flustin I n addition to those killer shows that I happened to catch, the things that stand out in my mind about John is that he was just a really nice guy. When guitar hew garland and art ready to Marty and I went backstage to discuss the possibility of taping a segment for plate it on the show, John was more than accommodating and a great conversationalist.

Dr. John Fdelivered a short but moving sermon and the surviving members of John's band played an acoustic version of "One Believer". After the funeral, Dr. John made an interesting remark. He told me "The land and the lame are still around and the good ones always seem to die young". How true. Fortunately for us, John Campbell left behind two brilliant records, "One Believer" and "Nowlin Mercy" and a ton of great memories. Rest in peace John.

THE REP ORT 30 CHECKOUT TRACKS

atthew Sweet, "The Ugly Truth," Zoo The truth is that "The Ugly Truth" was the most added song at Triple A, not to mention the highest debut at 28'. KGSR's Jody Denberg commented, "I was excited when l heard the Mnew Matthew Sweet was produced with Richard Dashut of Fleetwood Mac fame. And 'The Ugly Truth' doesn't dis- appoint. The Triple A version has a unique sound, almost reminiscent of late period Jefferson Airplane, except it's Byron Berline on the fiddle, not Papa John Creach!" WRSI's, Jim Olsen, added "Nice continuation of 'Girlfriend.' Good sum- mertime pop song."

--- :...... n..z- H eldl Berry, "The Moon And The Sun," 4AD/ReprIse Heidi Berry's melodic folk/pop defines the Triple A format The first single has already picked up adds from KBCO, KGSR, WBOS, KERA, and WXPN, where Berry immediately won the allegiance of World Cafe producer Bruce Rams, "Heidi Berry came by The World Cafe, and they were so impressed with their performance that they're thinking of putting some of the material that was taped here on B-sides or a CD5. The album is incredible, and their performance is one of the best sounding things we've had here in a long time. A definite million dollar performance."

im Finn, "Persuasion," Capitol We thought he was great in Split Enz and in brother Neil's Crowded House, but we think he's unbelievable on his latest solo album before & After. The Triple A buzz is loud and clear on this one: TWRLT's, Michael Parks, "I've haven't been able to take this out of my cassette player. It's rare that something comes along that so completely blows me away." WFXB's, Suzanne Michaels, "There's already a huge buzz on this album — and for good reason — it's wonderful" KZYR's, Jackie Selby, "Does that sound good! When you listen to it, you realize what a contributing factor he is to Crowded House, and was to Split Enz. He stands out all by himself"

urray Attaway, "Fall So Far," Geffen From the first time we listened to the advance cassette In Thrall has been a favorite here at Triple A Hardquarters. Most stations have already been several tracks deep on this album, but if NIyou've overlooked "Fall So Far," now's the time to catch up. KRVM's Jason Parker commented, "Murray's whole album has worked very well for us. It fits into the U2-ish kind of category. The listener response to 'Angels In The Trees' was great, so we're testing out 'Fall So Far,' and we're already getting a lot of calls."

Reaction Record of the Week 2, "Numb," Island When the innocuous looking 12" vinyl came in the mail this week with nothing but the words "Numb" and "Produced by Fee Dognoodle" written on it, we almost didn't realize that this was the U2 song. The first single from the forthcoming Zooropa. The one with The Edge singing lead vocals and Bono contributing background falsetto. Naturally, we jumped on the phone for Triple A reaction to the record, which was immediate and mired — most loved it, Usome weren't crazy about it, but just about everyone was playing it... MMM's Sybil McGuire, We had heard about this record, so I knew that it was going to be The Edge. And I knew that they were going to freak us out with the first single, just like they did with The Fly There was no artist glade but we knew right away what it was. I think Bono 's background vocals could have been Wmore present Quite honestly I'm not sure he made his $50 million with this one, tut Pm really looking forward to hearing the album." WFXB's Suzanne Michaels, 71 transcends everything else that they've done Its just great it has a little bit 61 something for everyone. I can't wait to get the full CD. They're my favorite band, and they continue to be my favorite band." KZYR's Jackie Selby, "It's great to hear from The Edge. It's one of only two songs he's ever sung for them. Accessibility, though, is another question. I believe it will end up being massively accessible." KGSR's, Jody Denberg, "If people didn't know this was U2, I really don't think they'd care. did a similar song on his last album, 'Ali Click,' that was artistically superior in the same thing. Still, we're exposing it to our audience, and we look forward to getting the whole album." KOPT's David Anderson, "It's the band's chance to do something that they want to do and be totally self-indulgent. I'm looking forward to the rest of the album. I love the 'producers' name, Fee Dognoodle. That's going to be my next radio name." WXPN's Bruce Rafles, "When I first heard it, it blew me away. U2 is one of the only bands that people will actually listen to on a piece of vinyl that comes in and not have to stand on ceremony and wait for the CD."

WRLT/Ilashville has signed longtime market AOR vet David Hall to the 3-7pm KMTT/Seattle kicked off the summer season with a Jimmy Buffett "Parrothead shift.

The money was raised through sales of The Cities' Sampler Vol. 4: Keeosakes. VP/GM Doug Brown commented, "On behalf of the entire staff of KTCZ I would like KSSY/Wenatche PD Greg Roberts wants to remind labels that the station has to thank everyone who supported this very worthwhile project We all look forward moved.

THE HARD REPORT JUNE 25,1993 31 andlebox, "Change", Maverick I warned you a few weeks ago that this record Cwas coming, and now with heads turning within the AOR ranks, it's only right that we refresh your memories about this one. Perhaps one of the most promising new bands out there this I AC/DC "Big Gun Northwestern four piece, (Kevin Martin lead Jacky' 'When Will It Rain" A 4 2 vocab Bardi Martin-bass, Peter Klett-guitar and Scott Mercado-drums) 3 3 Oueensryche "Real World" offer a tmsidfiny afew of chunky chordage, rough edged VOCdIS did] deep tex- Ozzy Osboume "Changes" A 5 4 tures. Already starting to click in at metal radio (they've had the first CD pro for a A 7 5 Anthrax "Only" few weeks now), it's here and at AOR that this band will ultimately shine. Aerosmith "Eat The Rich" 2 6 "Change" is rich in atmosphere and emotion, alternately mellow and heavy. At A 11 7 Brother Cane "Got No Shame" first sweetly sad and moody, suddenly explosive and angry — it's the kind of A 9 8 Megadeth "Angry Again" song you can't pull yourself away from listening to, and isn't that the key after Winger "Down Incognito" 6 9 all? I think this band should be huge and if you haven't contacted your Maverick Billy Idol "Shock To The System" A 10 10 rep yet for an advance on the full CD (which is pretty brilliant), you're missing A 18 11 Aerosmith "Cryin" out on one the best new breakthrough prospects around. Don't miss this one. 8 12 Stone Temple Pilots "Plush" A 16 13 Alice In Chains 'What The Hell Have l" 14 14 Dream Theater "Another Day" S Water weet Water, "Head Down", Atlantic Sweet Water are a rare beast. A Seattle band A 17 15 Arcade "Cry No More" who didn't jump on the grunge boat and make 15 16 Circus Of Power "Mama Tequila" * S for the big lights post haste. The band's music, A 23 17 Coverdale/Page 'Take Me For A Little..." e * 1 instead, careens heavily towards a much more 12 18 Raging Slab "Anywhere But Here" * accessible and recognizable style. Comparisons to 13 19 KISS "I Love It Loud" 4 The Cult are inevitable given the similarity in Adam 20 20 Savatage "Edge Of Thorns" Czeisler's and Ian Astbury's vocals, but it's important to really grasp what this A 24 21 Robert Plant "Calling To You" band is about. COR stations were hip enough to latch onto the upbeat polish 19 22 Pat Benatar "Everybody Lay Down" and fire of "Everything Will Be Alright" — which had a pretty good run on the A 3 23 Primus "My Name Is Mud" 50. The latest single however, is the anthemic and ultra catchy grinder "Head A 26 24 Soul Asylum "Runaway Train" Down" (which has kind of become a theme song for me). Sometimes it's just • D 1 25 C Of Love "Peace Mee" best to keep your head down and barrel forward, until you get the momentum A 27 26 Def Leppard "I Wanna Touch U" back. The song kind of describes those moments when we close our eyes to the A 29 27 Screaming Trees "Dollar Bill" world outside and get lost in our own realities — keep our "Head Down". Aside • D 1 2i3 Vince Neil "Can't Have Your Cake" from all that, the song simply rocks — it's heavy, catchy, crunchy and fast — A 31 29 Butthole Surfers 'Who Was In My Room... perfectly tailored for rock radio. They're on the road, catch 'em. 22 30 Lenny Kravitz 'Are You Gonna Go My..." A 34 31 Porno For Pyros "Pets" A 33 3.2 The Chance "See Me As You See Yourself' amn The Machine, "The Mission", 21 33 Vince Neil 'Sister Of Pain" A&M Until now, Damn The Machine have M D 1 '34 Bon Jovi "I'll Sleet, When I'm Dead' Dbeen worked only to metal radio, but that's A 43 35 Robert FLint "29 Palms" about to change. It's officially all yours to explore A 50 36 Stone Temple Pilots 'Wicked Garden" now (I wrote about them last week though), and this 32 37 Coverdale/Page "Shake My Tree" is just a reminder designed to hopefully nudge you A 48 38 April Wine "Here's Looking At You Kid" in the right direction. With the radio mindframe 35 39 Every Mother's Nightmare "I Hate Myself' widening to the point where bands never before played at AOR are now common- 29 40 Extreme 'Am I Ever Gonna Change" place, the timing couldn't be more perfect for a band like this one to impact. A 42 41 Flotsam And Jetsam "Swatting At Flies" Combining the graceful eloquence of progressive technique, with melodic acces- A 44 42 BulletBoys "Mine" sibility, Damn The Machine offer just the kind of innovative material the main- A 49 43 Steve Miller Band 'Wide River" stream seems to be aching for. "The Mission" is a lengthy (so go for the edit) 36 44 Sacred Reich "Crawlin" mesh of speed grinds (a la founder Chris Polands' past work with Megadeth) 41 45 The Posies "Dream All Day" and mesmerizing melodic breaks (a la his solo work with the instrumental pro- .P 46 Soul Asylum "Black Gold" ject Metalopolis). Powerful, sleek and radio friendly, don't forget to check into • D 1 47 Allgood "It Right" "The Mission". • • D 1 48 Galactic Cowbo s "I Do What I Do" • D 1 49 Damn Yankees "Fifteen Minutes Of Fame" • D 9a Pete Townshend "English Bo " Christine Black

Focus 50 C.O.R. CURRENT ORIENTED ROCK

creaming Jets, "Here I Go", rooArt/Atlantic This bright and brazen bunch PHOTO GALLERY Sof Australians, (Dave Gleeson-manic lead singer, Grant Walmsley-guitar, Richard Lara-gui- tar, Paul Woseen-bass and Brad Heaney-drums) first hit these shores two years ago, with their debut release "All For One" (through a different US label), and quickly enamored the masses with songs like "C'Mon" and "Blue Sashes". They came on like a much harder version of INXS — brash, young, intelligent and humorous, and their music flashed between straight forward barre chord rock n'roll and classy main- stream polish. Well, finally the Jets are back to invade our shores once again, this time with the help of Atlantic Records. Their forthcoming (in July) "Tear Of Thought", should further clinch the band's presence here in the U.S.. The first sin- gle now impacting at metal and COR is, "Here I Go" — driven heavily by chugging guitars and big drums, the song is high adrenalin, built around smooth curves and a highly memorable chorus — with strong layered vocals. I can't wait to check out the full LP. In the meantime, don't hesitate to jump on the Screaming Jets — its a ride worth taking. One last shot from KIRX's Rockiest, just because it was impossible not to print it. AL Check out these two mugs!

Actually I think this was shot after the newly shorn entered the room. ngines Of Aggression, "Speak", Priority I know some of you experimented quite a bit with FEC91.--7 11 Eindustrial music, primarily from genre creators like and Ministry. It isn't too much of a stretch then to expect you to really take notice of the Engines Of Aggression. Especially since they knock past the wall of noise, chaos syndrome and offer up a much more song oriented, accessible style that will enable a lot more folks to come to the party. The Engines (Rik Shaffer-guitar, Tripp-voice, Craig Dollinger-drums and Bulldog-bass/backing voice), work mechanical industrial grinds (they use drum machines and live playing) into their songs via samples and combine it with psy- chedelic flourishes that are very atmospheric. The six song EP offers up a variety of sounds from the very catchy prance of "Animals" to the more techno-industrial chaos of "Illusion Is Real" and "Slippin' Away". "Animals" is perhaps the best track to check out first. EOA are definite up and comers, so expect to be reading more about them here in the future.

an Moore, "How Does It Feel?", Capricorn /an stopped by the office this past week, and after a lquick trek to the Hard-dock-by-the-lake, dazzled us with his stunning six string expertise (his slide playing in particular) and his natural blues deliverance. The setting was perfect, the talent obvious.

Here we see Gruntruckers Scott and Tommy sidling up to Pyscho (Roadrunner) and IVXRC's through his fingers and a natural affinity for carrying Scott Cornette. We'll have some more shots of 'em next week. into the '90s. Having played for a year with the Joe Ely band, he's now a seasoned performer as well, and on the brink of his first solo effort for Capricorn. Not merely a guitar hero in the making, Ian also happens to have been blessed with a deep and passionate voice (kind of Hendrix-ish at moments), that tosses even more soul into the mix. "How Does It Feel?" is the first single, and it has enough edgy, wailing guitar riffs to make it a natural for rock radio, and enough feeling to captivate even the most jaded ears. It feels great, so do it. CHART THEORY

overdale Page, "Take Me For A Little While", Geffen Mr. Coverdale graced us with his presence (blond, tanned and very tall), this past Cweek, and it was a pleasure to hear that rather magnificent voice first hand. As it stands, the project with seems to be a raving success, especially if the band's success at COR radio is anything to judge by. This week, the latest single from Coverdale Page takes a little walk even further up the COR 50 from 23- 17'. This with 4 new adds (KZRX, WVCR, WXOR and WXTB plus 12 at AOR), and steady airplay on over 20 CORockers.

tone Temple Pilots, "Wicked Garden", Atlantic If I'm not mistaken this is the third single from the just turned platinum debut album from San Diego's STP. A beautiful process it's been to watch as they've grown, from S A981lock WXT8 sent out this lovely shot of the Testament gang stuffing their faces during the release of the hard hitting "Sex Type Thing", to the dark and brooding "Plush" a recent visit to Tampa. That's Brian Medlin (MD) standing in the back looking every — which exposed the deeper heart of STP. Now they take the spotlight once again bit the diabolical mad scientist. I wonder what he put in the food. with lush depths of "Wicked Garden". This week the song managed a 14 spot move on the COR 50 from 50-36* with new airplay at KILO, KRXO, KUPD, KZRX, WUFX and WXOR.

oul Asylum, "Summer of Drugs," Chaos/Columbia The forthcoming Sweet Relief: A Benefit For Victoria Williams features artists paying tribute to Williams and covering her songs. Profits and artist royalties from the album Sare going towards paying the medical costs for Williams, who is suffering from mulitple sclerosis. Some funds will go to the Sweet Relief Musicians Trust, founded by Victoria to help other musicians with similar medical needs. Besides Soul Asylum, the album features performances from Lou Reed, Pearl Jam, Matthew Sweet, Giant Sand, and Buffalo Tom among many others. Originally appearing on 1990's Swing the Statue!, this song has been covered by Soul Asylum with amazing warmth and sincerity, capturing the essence of the original version. You'll be hearing a lot more about this project in the next few weeks when the full record comes out.

inosaur Jr, "Gain Home," Sire/Warner Brothers Yeah, yeah, by now you know J Mascis is God, you know Dinosaur Jr is one helluva Sassy band and you know J and his buddies are doing the Lolla thing near you, so you should take all Dthis information and come to the conclusion that "Coin Home" is a must. "Goin Home "s slower pace is perfectly suit- ed for J's gravely vocals. Quiet, acoustic guitars and sustained organs take some of the bite out of J's vocals, leaving you with a more polished, flowing, calming tune. This track is perfect for all dayparts and it's so radio friendly even granolas can play it — what more could you possibly ask for? It's time to dig deeper!

uede, "Animal Nitrate," Nude/Columbia Is this even an issue? The biggest buzz band of the year is out with their second U.S. single (it's already been a huge hit overseas), and considering the success of "Metal Mickey" this one pos- Ssesses definite no-brainer status. With very cool fuzzbox guitars and Brett Anderson's howling vocals, this track should find a more than welcome home on your playlist Their mega-successful (albeit somewhat brief) U.S. tour ended a couple of weeks ago, and we should expect them back here by summer's end (after they're done HEADLINING the Reading Festival in England.) By the way, could Leno be more clueless?

he Jayhawks, "Settled Down Like Rain," Del American When Hollywood Town Hall came out last year, our format fell in love with the earthy, down-home sound of the Jayhawks, and subsequently crossed it over. The latest track off the Talbum exhibits all the qualities we found so endearing in the band Another perfect addition to the list of decidedly sum- mer-sounding songs the mailman has been bringing our (your) way. WXPN's Mike Morrison says, "Just when you thought they'd be out of your life forever, along come the Jayhawks with not only another classic A-side, but a brilliant cover of Tim Hardon's "Reason To Believe." Be sure to check out some of the live stuff on the CD-5.

lind Melon, "No Rain," Capitol Well, since we're in a "rain" frame of mind, we figured we'd continue the whole vibe with this cool track. Perhaps the most anthemic song on their record, "No Rain" is a sing-a-long summer song in the Btruest sense. Possessing a loose, jammy feel, this track's -acoustic nature and general feel-good disposition is perfect for your summer playlist The promo version of the single includes a real cool live version of the song which captures the communal spirit inherent in the track. With early adds from KROO, WDST, WilZ, WHTG and WBRU, the track has a jump start toward being one of the defining songs of this summer.

n absolutely stunning new record is A Century Ends (Caroline) by David Gray. ASinging with a raspy Gaellic growl and a ferocious demeanor, Gray writes songs bathed in lyrical complexity and heartfelt candor. A modern singer/songwriter that maintains his ties to the traditional (but distinguishes himself from the pigeonholed "label" the term implies), Gray's songs serve as a reflection on the anguish and constant irony pre- sent in modern day society and his personal life. There really are no weak spots to this vehemently passionate record, though "Wisdom," "Debauchery," and "A Century Ends" stand out in particular.

he new Band of Susans record is simply raging all over us alternative types here at Tthe Hard Compound... Veil (Restless) is the follow up to last year's Now EP, and it fea- tures the band at their warmest and most reso- nant. Legendary for purveying a killer, bombas- tic guitar sound and a driving backbone, the "SILVERBEET" THE LATEST Band Of Susans recorded an album overflowing with equal parts turbulence and melody. Their three-guitar overload RELEASE FROM THE BATS brand of blustery pop is here exhibited at its best. Favorites include the warped, beautifully thick "Mood Swing," "Blind," and "The Red and the Black"

xtremely interesting and the talk of the most modern of techno fans, Mona Lisa EOverdrive (on the newly-formed Max- Bilt label) fuses many diverse musical influ- ences and gives them new life while twisting and turning our perceptions of what techno is (and, more importantly, can be) all about. The material is intelligent, exploratory and takes the absolute latest in technology by the reins, bringing the listener face to face with the future. The band is Joe Faraci and Arthur Barrow, two bril- liant musical visionaries who provide the interface between man and machine (listen to the record and you'll see why.)

Contributed by Mike Cooper In 1984, a musical independence was launched in New Zealand by the Flying Nun record label when it put out an EP by the clean. During the 1980s, the label went on to release music-tom the Chills, the Great Unwashed, Tall Dwarfs, and a band called Bored Games, featuring Shayne Carter. Carter went on to form Straitjacket Fits, whose latest album Blow has just been released by Arista. The Hard Report's Mike Cooper touches base with Carter.

What's the difference between Auckland, on What's your view of what "alternative" the North Island, and Dunedin, on the South? means? Does each city have its own sound? Are you optimistic about Straitjacket Fits' chances for American success? Now the thing is all these fiercely independent and Dunedin is definitely a lot more independent — more alternative bands that sound like Sonic Youth or furiously so, whereas Auckland is sort of where the Pavement. I can't see what's so alternative about I would love to sell lots ol ecords and be rich and media is and it's a lot more industry-orientated. that. That's just towing somebody else's line.

What really made an impression on me about last year's festival was how peaceful every- one in the audience was. I didn't see any fights or real unruliness.

It was amazing because we spoke with the officials and police who were there throughout the day, and there was one thing that kept coming back to us: there were no major injuries and that this was one of the most peaceful crowds they had ever seen. There were no arrests. Zero. Pretty incredible considering there were 30,000 people in 90 degree heat in a place where beer was being purchased. To have that kind of coop- erative attitude among our audience, it was really a tribute to the people who listen to this radio station

THE HARD REPORT JUNE 25, 1993 47 Hard Rock/Heavy Metal

gnostic Front, "Last Warning", Relativity.... Long one of the forerunners in the scene, , after a long career, have called it quits. Obviously the musical trends in that city and around the world are forever in flux, with the hardcore Amovement only recently enjoying a resurgence in popularity. But this band can proudly say they were there "when"... in fact, they were there before then and they, through their fist clenched speed credos, influenced a tide of bands from Sick Of It All to Anthrax to Biohazard. And so it has come to be that ten years after their formation the band returned to the famed and wonderful hole in the wall climes of CBGB's to close it down the right way On stage, raging fury and oppressive pit action all in motion long-time members and Male Stigma along with Raybeez, Jimmy Gestapo, and Biohazard's Evan Seinfeld, tore through classic AF material — a perfect send-off. Included on "Last Warning" are 11 live tracks recorded as CBs in December that span the band's 10 year history, plus 9 tracks from the band's 1983 "" EP. Whether you remember the New York Hardcore scene in its heydey or not, you can't deny the indelible imprint AF has left upon the metal scene and how it lingers even today. They will be missed. Luckily you have their "Last Warning"— a very appropriate and heavy reminder.

ulletBoys, "Za Za", Warner Brothers... So you've had the four song "12 Minute Warning" to help you get acquainted with the new material from hard rockers, the BulletBoys. From that, you already know that they've churned a little harder, pushed a little more, and Bstretched into new areas. Personally, I'm reminded that "When Pigs Fly" cranks pretty hard every time I hear it, and I'm amazed at how tough the guitar sounds. Well, now you get the full "Za Za" CD to cruise through, so hopefully all of you that have been hemming and hawing over throwing the Boys into rotation, will get with the program. "Slow And Easy" is a blast of energy that you might want to click onto, and it segues moodily into the angry mesh of "The Rising". "Sing A Song" and "Mine" show extremely different sides of the band and their versatile abilities. "Mine", the torchy standard that it is, of course, makes the most of singer, Marq Torien's Motown past. Naturally, metal folks will want to skip these, but COR/AOR types really dig 'em. "1-800-Goodbye" gets back to the rock though, as does "The Show" and "Crosstop". "Laughing With The Dead" still sounds like a bonafide hit to me — it's such a cool song. Ah well, on with the show. Quick Pick

nyx, "Slam"/Bionyx Remixes, JMWRAL/Chaos.... What do you get when you mix hardcore Brooklynites Biohazard (in-house laves here at Hard), with slammin' rapsters Onyx — Bionyx remixes of course. That's right and that's just what happened in a NYC stu- Odio recently. We've been warning you for weeks now that this was coming, and here it is, the remixed (by Biohazard guitarist/vocalist Billy Orazladel) version of the hip-hopping rap hit "Slam" (perhaps you've seen the great, but hectic video featuring the members of Biohazard). F. Y./. all the live instruments were played by Biohazard, and much of the background yelping as well. The song is naturally infused with a brazen street vibe and the naturally aggressive tilt of hardcore/rap. It also represents a creative merging across racial borders (which we've seen more of lately), and given the nature of both bands and their respective genres, this makes a very important statement about music and its role in society. Also included on the CD is an Industrial Remix, the LP version, the Nuclear Waste Industrial Mix, and the Glow In The Dark Frustration Mk Go ahead, "Slam", it's great fun. Chart AXshun

hings are finally starling to get shook up a bit in the Top Five, as Del American's Danzig rapidly slots into #2, pushing long-standing res- idents, Monster Magnet (A&M) and Sacred Reich (Hollywood), back a notch each. Danzig are looking like they could be the first to Toffer Anthrax a major threat for their 11 slot. Glenn and the gang landed 7 moves into rotation, 12 increases, 1 new add and some 20 power rotations, not to mention 112 Most Requested (pretty impressive stuff). Next week's the one to watch.... Also jumping into the Top 5 (fill- ing in the void left by the B. Surfers) were Megaforce's Mind Funk crew (who slot nicely into /5, also landing t8 Most Requested). This, with 6 increases and some 20 stations pounding 'em in power or heavy.... Storming, not unexpectedly into the Top Ten this week, was the full Last Action Hero Soundtrack (Columbia). While the numbers have, for the most part, been scattered among tracks from catterd Megadeth, AC/DC and Alice In Chains (with a few here and there on Oueensryche, Anthrax and Def Leppard), most airplay home is now converting over to the full LP. Thus, the 20-9" rocket ride this past week (t3 in combined requests).... < Geffen/DGC's Galactic Cowboys are finally launched as witnessed by their 14-10* showing this week (#6 Most Requested). The full album has finally started to settle into playlists and the rave is on. This week the band landed 7 moves into rotations and 11 increases.... The inimitable, Cathedral (Earache/Columbia) certainly hauled home to the major, a very killer week indeed. t2 Most Added on the LP with 43 stations, 5 increases on the sin- gle and over 30 stations on "Ride" insures a monster move from 25-15*, with an even better week ahead of them as the LP slots in.... Metal Blade's reunited Mercyful Fate are still enjoying an excellent run with the first single, "Egypt". This week taking a 7 slot leap from 23-16" on Hard Hitters, with 5 new adds, 8 moves into rotation and 8 increases all helping the cause. Of course, as you read, the full album, "In The Shadows", should be arriving on your desks for adds. Watch 'em crush their way into the Top 5 in no time at all.... A&M has certainly made their presence felt at metal radio again. Where once Extreme and Soundgarden roamed, now pound Monster Magnet (still Top 5), Paw (#35) and Chris Poland's Damn The Machine, who knocked past another 8 bands for a 28-20" move on Hard Hitters. Helping were 8 moves into rotation and 3 new adds. They're certainly keeping competitive over there.... Our second biggest move of the week went to Giant's first foray into the death metal realms, Morbid Angel. "Rapture" had already impacted the charts, but this week with the full CD slamming into town, the band plowed up 16 from 41-25" (#5 Most Added/5 moves into rotation/7 increases).
