Details Lead Performance: Babes in Toyland; Genre: Rock

Babes in toyland Nemesisters (Reprise) Believe it or not, these Minneapolis ragecore queens have toned down their maximum-stridency shtick a tad, delivering an album that at times actually skirts power pop (check out ''Sweet '69''). The result is still fairly punishing, but there's a reward for listeners who stick it out to the last cut: a killer version of Sister Sledge's ''We Are Family.'' B -Tom Sinclair
