The Island of Misfit Record Reviews
Welcome to The Island of Misfit Record Reviews! There are the record and show reviews that I wrote when I was a wee lad. For the most part, they're awful. Don't take that to mean that the records themselves are bad, I still stand by a lot of the ones I had good things to say about, but let's just say that I didn't get my points across in a way that doesn't make my modern self deeply uncomfortable. So, enjoy?
