ROCK CANDY
Rising Boston Bands Span the Musical Rainbow from Pop to Funk
by Andrew Rimas, Boston Magazine, September 1999


...For every band falling, there is one glorious rising. The following bands
are pumped with helium and ready to hit it big....The PushStars....The Sheila Divine....Star Ghost Dog....

On the darker side, or at least the more shadowy side, is Reflecting Skin. Three members once belonged to the Goth band One of Us, so the group falls on the flip side of the sugar and Spice Girls coin. Add the odd mandolin, tribal percussion instrument, and quarter-tone singing, and you have an exploratory band that goes places 'N Sync only goes when it's smoking banana peels.
