Local Loft Episode 102

The defining sounds of the Chicagoland area and State of Illinois always rocking local music scene,sometimes without the textbook defintiions. We won't deal with elaborate explanations,the music will do the talking and rocking.

Four man Chicago Metal band Comfort Scarcity has made a name opening for Pantera frontman Phil Anselmo,Saving Abel and many more. They have an old school sound that recalls Dokken,Metal Church,even Alice in Chains.But try to call them a Metal band,and they will frown on it. I talk to them as they get a Friday night crowd groovin at Q Bar in Darien.

From the area where Metal reigns supreme more than even the city of Chicago,Joliet,comes Next To Eternity with an extensive growling attack to their music. Ignesent unleashes the passionate vocal delivery of Jennifer Benson,who has a very powerful sound,that's quite natural,and a bit electronically enhanced.
