Virus 100 is Alternative Tentacles' 100th release and a tribute to the Dead Kennedys. This is one of the best punk/metal/wacko compilations out there. There's really a broad range of genres on this one, and many different takes on some Dead Kennedys favoriites. Some faithful to the original, and some, well... not.
There's the wacked out rock-a-billy of Evan Johns and Mojo Nixon, metal from Napalm Death and Sepultura (fucking brutal), hip-hop stylings of the Disposable Heros of Hiphoprisy, and some weirdness from Faith No More, Kramer, and NoMeansNo, whose acapella version of Forward to Death is nothing short of amazing. A big highlight for me is Les Thugs version of Moon Over Marin . Who knew the song was tuneful?
