3.0 out of 5 stars
Mislabeled as "Indie" - should be called So PUNK it Hurts...,
By
This review is from: So Indie It Hurts: Roir Rocks Volume One (MP3 Download)
Pretty good album but these are PUNK tracks not INDIE - in fact I'm pretty sure all of these songs were originally released before the term "Indie" was coined. It's a good sampling, not quite definitive songs for each band and don't expect polished tracks - they're raw and underproduced - but if you're an old school punk fan then you're used to that low-fi sound.

For Those Who Love it Raw,

This review is from: So Indie It Hurts: Roir Rocks Volume One (MP3 Download)
ROIR Records specialized in cassette-only releases that captured bands like the MC5, Fleshtones, Dictators and many more live and/or at their most raw. Anybody looking for polished musical gems from these bands should probably look elsewhere but if you want low-fi nuggets of rawk and roll history, this is definitely worth checking out.

"INDIE" not "Indy",
By mrrockandroll (East of New York) - See all my reviews
This review is from: So Indie It Hurts: Roir Rocks Volume One (MP3 Download)
This album is as "indie" as it gets. All these tracks share a certain d.i.y. aesthetic and are brought to you by one of the last true "Indie" record labels left on the face of this world. If you are looking for some typical "Alt-cliche", or the latest band to sound like a cross between Pavement and Vampire Weekend, you might want to go to Wal-Mart and pick through the "Indie" section. What is given here, freely is some god damned inspiration. Stop whining and start listening to some tracks that just might change your mind about a few things.
