Sonic Overload 4/11/16

I realize that it’s not usually proper to speak ill of the dead and I’ll keep this brief but the opening song, Articles of Faith’s “I’ve Got Mine” goes out to Barbara Anderson, former head of the anti-tax group Citizens For Limited Taxation, who passed away a few days ago. CLT was behind Proposition 2 1/2 , a bill that holds property taxes in a community to 2 ½ % each year and doesn’t allow any increases over 2 ½ %. This usually leads to cuts in services—schools, police, etc, and the only way to raise funds is to put an override on the ballot. Anderson was essentially opposed to any sort of government assistance, even going so far as to say public libraries weren’t necessary. She was (as you probably guessed) inspired by Ayn Rand’s philosophy of selfishness. She also didn’t always express the most-enlightened attitudes towards immigration. She was a supporter of Cliven Bundy, the deadbeat rancher in Nevada. I can’t say I’ll miss her all that much. Unfortunately, CLT remains with us...

I’m going to Death Side in NYC next Sunday so I won’t be back in time to do a show. I’ll be back on the 25th.

Sonic Overload 4/4/16

It’s April 4 and it’s fucking snowing! Second time in two days, in fact. That’s after it hit 70 last week. That wacky New England weather. I’m not going to complain because it was a relatively mild winter. I wasn’t exactly feeling 100% while recording this show. Let’s just say getting to bed on a Sunday night/Monday morning at 1:30 AM, after a loud ‘n smoky punk show (at the Boiler Room in Boston, with Disguise and others) and then not being able to fall back to sleep after 6:30 might not be conducive to putting together a mind-bender of a show but I did my best. And, yes, I really did play and do like that Blood Sweat & Tears song. Deal with it.

Don’t forget I’ve moved the live show to Old FX Punk Radio and that’s at Wednesday nights from 9 to 11 PM eastern at www.oldfxpunkradio.com.

Sonic Overload, 3/28/16

This past weekend marked special anniversaries for a couple of albums in my collection, albums that are treasured by fans of each respective band –Thin Lizzy’s “Jailbreak,” which came out on March 26, 1976 and Slint’s “Spiderland,” released on March 27, 1991. 40 and 25 years respectively and I play them both on the show this week. “Jailbreak” was the first Lizzy album I got, after picking up the single of “The Boys Are Back In Town.” I got that on a shopping trip with my grandmother and the other album purchased that day was Blue Öyster Cult’s “On Your Feet Or On Your Knees.” The latter was kind of an odd choice for my first Cult album but it did whet my appetite to check out the back catalog.

As for Slint, the album didn’t really connect at the time and I ended up getting rid of it. Then, “Good Morning Captain” showed up on the soundtrack for the movie “Kids” and I was blown away. I revisited the album and, while it’s not 100% great (neither is “Jailbreak,” for that matter, it’s pretty groundbreaking stuff and  “Good Morning Captain” is one of the few songs that lives up to the hackneyed term “epic.”

Don’t forget I’ve moved the live show to Old FX Punk Radio and that’s at Wednesday nights from 9 to 11 PM eastern at www.oldfxpunkradio.com.

Sonic Overload 3/21/16

Some big news—the live Sonic Overload show has moved to a new time and station. It can now be heard every Wednesday from 9 to 11 PM eastern (8 to 10 central, 6 to 8 pacific) on Old FX Punk Radio. To be honest, this was a move I’d been mulling for awhile and finally made it last week. I did a “test run” last Wednesday night (March 16) and, if you missed it, it’ll be on the archive in the not-too-distant future. That will be the case with all future shows and Old FX will also rebroadcast my shows when no one is live on the air. It’s a cool station, founded by Dennis and Starsky, formerly of Stench Radio. I’d like to pause and thank Stig Stench for giving Sonic Overload a live home for nearly three years and I wish him and the Stench crew nothing but the best and continued success. And thanks to Dennis and Starsky for bringing me on board...

And, oh yeah, Happy Easter... I mark it with some perennial Easter/Holy Week favorites.
