EXZOSKELETON/TITAN CLASH
Fireside Bowl, Chicago 8/8/00
Former Skin Graft staffer Billy Sides has started his own label, B.Sides Records, and its roster so far is small but ecclectic. Last year he put out bad- a place where guys fight over girls, money, and attitude but still also live ordinary and sometimes illuminated inner and outer lives, where there are "gigabytes of light, shining white bright" even as "your girl be my alibi, screaming, 'Why, why?'"
