  Alice Rabbit — Authority: 120
  Rough Trade - RT119T First track is an excellent dancefloor-oriented remix of "Baby Turns Blue" from the LP "...If I Die, I Die", produced by Wires Colin Newman.

  Built on a Weak Spot — Authority: 462
  Not quite sure, but I think this is the third single from Pittsburgh’s Kim Phuc . I wrote a small bit about their last one awhile back after it completely steamrolled right over me when listening to it. This here single pretty much does the same exact thing by instilling the same tense and fear inducing rhythms ...

  Last Days of Man On Earth — Authority: 112
  TAR - Teetering // The In-Crowd (Touch & Go Records) 1992. Ahhhh yes, TAR. Another of the lesser known bands on the Am Rep roster and definitely part of the midwestern 1990s noise rock scene.
