Sonic Overload 9/29/14

Back to full-strength turntable wise—actually, I had two turntables up and running by last Wednesday’s show on Stench Radio. Another week of punk rock and I’m almost recovered from the GBH/Angry Samoans/Reagan Youth show. I haven’t been going to as many of the “punk rock oldies circuit” shows in recent years but I haven’t seen GBH and the Samoans since the 90s so I decided to go (and thanks for the ticket hookup, Clay, if you read this). I’d still rather go see the newer bands in DIY spaces but there’s nothing wrong with nostalgia every once in awhile as long as you realize there’s still good punk and hardcore worthy of your attention...
