Rockin' around the blarney stone. Another comprehensive romp to greener pastures ahead for the Chicagoland and Illinois metal, punk, alt-rock, prog ,and power pop scene.
We're shipping up to Joliet, to find Backlash, who have found a fountain of youth in the era of classic eighties thrash metal. The four man band has just released it's debut album, Colossus. Hearing this will have you doing a double take in thinking the quintessential Metallica, Exodus or Armored Saint lineups have been resurrected. But it's not all old school. Two balls out cuts from their new effort.
Chicago punk pop band Sex Dream get catty ( just a little) in an upcoming show with Aweful (who are awesome Runaways inspired garage punk trio) in West Chicago.
Some venues who live and breathe the traditional Irish atmosphere will be reopening just in time for the big green holiday. A trip back to when Celtic Chicago punk rockers Flatfoot 56 were as much a main attraction as multiple Irish car bomb shots.
Joliet's The Allegiance fought for their country and rock just as heavy as the ammo they deployed as members of the U.S. armed forces. Back nine years ago this week when the band all made roll call for an in-studio debut at The Kat
105.5.
