Continuing its tradition of producing great compilation
CDs, Fat Wreck Chord’s latest compilation. Short Music
for Short People is an impressive collection of 101 songs
that clock in at 30 seconds or less from 101 different
bands, not all necessarily on the Fat Wreck Chords label.
The album showcases the many different sounds of
punk music. It could be used as a crash course in punk
music for those unfamiliar with the genre. The produc
ers wisely (or accidentally) accentuate the differences
among the sounds by placing the most unlikely tracks
side by side. Bouncy, pop-tinged tracks are juxtaposed
with stark acoustic tracks that mingle w ith ska-influ
enced songs, and so forth, leaving listeners to guess
what will come after the pause between tracks.
The album features almost every punk hand under
the sun, ranging from pioneers like The Descendents
to more mainstream bands like Green Day, but mostly
it showcases bands that don’t get the amount of atten
tion they deserve like Bracket and Good Riddance.
The 30-second-or-less length of each sting is both the
CD’s greatest weakness and its greatest asset — listeners
may long for a track to last longer, but wish another would
end before it began. I lowever, by the time the listener
finds the remote control to his or her CD player, chances
are the offending track is already over. (Grade: A+)
The soundtrack to Isn i She Great is some
like the movie - light and fluffy without mt
substance.
Featuring the musical talent of Burt Bach,
and only two tracks w ith any Fries, this CD

After track six though, mi
