Synopsis

Product Description
Scene Killer is a musical document of the New Jersey rock scene, an album of songs co-written and recorded by members of every important group in the region. As with the founders of the Seattle scene a decade ago, all of these musicians have been in and out of bands and projects together for years, so getting them back together for a record was a natural thing. The result is a collection of flowing riffs and fuzzed-out guitar blasts that unite as the unofficial soundtrack to the as-yet unmade sequel to Dazed & Confused. This is spur-of-the-moment greatness and unclaimed glory. It's loud, stony guitar rock like they made thirty years ago, and to hear it, you'd think these bands were there the first time around.

A piece of history
Nick West | Arlington, VA | 08/26/2002
(4 out of 5 stars)

""Scene Killer" is an odd collection of songs performed by various members of New Jersey's thriving hard rock scene. Organized by Solarized frontman James Hogan, the album includes appearances by musicians from Halfway To Gone, The Atomic Bitchwax, Monster Magnet, Solace, Solarized, and a few others. The songs are a bit strange, but this is a picture of the NJ underground that, if nothing else, captures a moment in rock history that I'll always look back on fondly. This isn't the best introduction to Jersey stoner rock, but it's a fantastic piece for those of us who already know and appreciate it."
