We the unwilling, led by the unqualified, have been doing the unbelievable for so long, with so little, we now attempt the impossible with nothing. - Mini-School Credo

Album Review

November 1, 1998 by Mini Archives

By Geoff Boller

Korn- Follow the Leader. “Dead Bodies Everywhere” “It talks about dead bodies everywhere and I like that.” (Sam)

Sublime- Live at Firecracker Lounge. “Pool Shooter” “I feel it was a very heart filled song and it predicts his death.” (Jeremy Latcham)

Mr. T. Experience- “When I Lost You” “The song is funny, the music is good, and poppy is nice.” (Aaron Sapp/ Man)

Limp Biscuit- “Three Dollar Bill” “It’s really cool.” (Kristina Petron)

Pink Floyd- “Wish You Were Here” “It gives a relaxing attitude.” (Jessica Turner)

Offspring- “Americana” “Pretty Fly For A White Guy” “I think that their songs have a good message to people.” (Tom Miller)

Dave Matthews Band- “Before these Crowded Streets” “The Dreaming Tree” “The David Matthews Band strikes me as so original and yet it has so many different types of music. “Dreaming Tree” is just a realistic look at the expansion of the human race and has a lot of feeling.” (Leah Shoberg)

Amebix- “U 2IVO Boot Leg LP” “I like the whole thing because the old “U2IVO LP” was pressed poorly.”

A Vice Peace Compilation- “Not new, but in my opinion it is the best record ever pressed. It’s a mid 80’s compilation that includes U.K. Crossover which is Vold Time Peace Punk mixed with Trash It. It also has one of a kind music that is Chumbawumba’s early recordings when they were punk mixed with folk music before they were ever heard of. Their lyrics were more political and meaningful instead of just being a late 90’s trend band. Over all, it’s a great composition to me that could never get dull or boring.
