Posting this episode has really been a pain in the ass due to technical difficulties with Podbean. So a lot of you might get this sent to you a few times.
You will surrender to the infectious pile driving sound ( with no deadly virus attached) of the newest and best original Chicagoland and Illinois metal, punk, alternative, progressive rock and power pop. It will be hard to give up the urge to massively grind and headbang, especially the first weekend in February at Doomed Days of Winter, where Bloodletter will break free from Covid isolation to play their first show in almost 2 years, February 4th at Blue Island Beer Company. Singer and founder Pete Caparelli joins me to talk about how the pile driving rhythms and hard hitting lyrics of their new full length album, Funeral Hymns address overcoming personal turmoil and struggles.
Beginning during the start of the big hair metal period of the early to mid 80s, Chicago Progressive Thrash Metal band Wrath was not taken seriously as Metallic, Megadeth or Testament by MTV or FM terrestrial radio. They will help the founder of the underground Northwest Chicago suburban metal powerhouse Rebel Radio, Scott Davidson, to celebrate another birthday with a big bash at Brauerhouse in Lombard January 21st. Drummer Jake Fromkin joins me to talk about how they keep rocking on through a 40 year history of the band.
Metal came with excessive force applied by Joliet's Habit Of Force. They joined me in The Kat 105.5 studios ten years ago this week to introduce themselves to radio listeners in the Joliet and Kankakee Southlands.
In addition to these, you've got an original local music fever, and the only cure is excessive doses of:
Bloodletter-I Am The End
Bloodletter-Disinterment
Reflexicon-Grasp At the Sky
Wrath-Draw Blood
Wrath-R.I.P. (Ripped In Pieces)
Repentance-All The Misery
Vortis-2020 Covid Blues
The Gravetones-The Ride
Habit Of Force (Rich Truck Collins and Junior interview in The Kat 105.5 studio-1/19/12)
Habit Of Force-Your Pig
Habit Of Force-Last Chance
Habit Of Force-Kill What's Inside
