Sonic Overload 10/22/12

I’m BAAAAACK!! Did you miss me? Our vacation in Seattle and Portland was a lot of fun. Well, the rain wasn’t a lot of fun and it rained about half the time we were out there but there was still plenty to do. I recommend checking out the EMP (Experience Music Project) in Seattle. It was nice to get together with people we don’t see all that often and I brought back a fair number of records, many of which can heard on this week’s show. I also pay tribute to the 30th anniversary of the Maximum Rocknroll compilation “Not So Quiet On The Western Front” by playing a whopping 10 songs in about 15 minutes.

I realize there’s a good amount of “lesser-known” bands this week and it covers a variety of musical styles (not that much straight hardcore) but I hope you’ll check them out and not just listen to the hits. Y’all might hear something you like.
