Coffin Salesman – “Disappearing Acts” Aria Rad I know as a singer/bassist/songwriter of The Radicals, a great, local punk/hardcore trio that sadly, met it’s demise a couple of years ago. (Attacked by a family of rabid raccoons). Since then he [Read More]
Leash – “Dead End Breed”
Leash – “Dead End Breed” When I think of Leash I think of pretty flowers dancing in the sunshine. I think of cool, placid water with golden beams of light glancing upon it, blinding our eyes with warmth while rows of dandelions promenade over the [Read More]
The Ice Cold Killers – “Live And Let Down”
The Ice Cold Killers – “Live And Let Down” I like lots of different types of music. I suspect you do, too. It might comes as a surprise that my favorite music isn’t punk- though, it’s right up there. I love 40’s, 50’s, [Read More]

Gravel – “I Never Asked”
Gravel – “I Never Asked” Gravel usually plays shows that I don’t go to. Only reason being, they don’t play punk shows that often. Which is a shame, for me, because the one time I did see them I was very impressed. They’re an [Read More]

Mickey Rickshaw – “Behind The Eight Ball”
Mickey Rickshaw – “Behind The Eight Ball” When I was very young my grandmother took me to a small, outdoor Irish music festival. I thought it was the worst thing I ever heard. I’ve never been to a Grateful Dead or Phish show so that [Read More]
