Excerpt from "Rough Mix"
By Peter Hanson

Certainly the loudest disc in this week’s onslaught of local recordings is the self-titled album from Phillips Head, a 15-song disc from the Glens Falls punk trio. Phillips Head was recorded at MaxTrax Studios and presumably produced by the band (no production credits are listed), with front man Jason Irwin contributing all the music and lyrics. Irwin gets extra points for the track “Poser Rock,” which manages to cop lyrics from Madonna’s “Vogue” and Dire Straits’ “Money for Nothing” while dissing musicians who talk like punks without walking the punk walk.
