Local Loft Episode 380

Don't be a jagoff....support local music!

You support local music by supporting and continuously following this podcast. And that directive did not personally come from me. It was printed on a sticker at the merch table of the first annual Goat Stock at Goat Village in Norridge. on the original Chicagoland music menu, everything from Hip Hop Jazz Fusion (Afrofuturistics), Hardcore Punk (Acton's Dictum) Stoner Funk Rock (Ur Mom) and Blues Rock (Superhype and The Valiant 72's)

Tractor Boy is a thrilling combination of 90s Grunge , Southern Fried Metal and Punk. They plowed through the video screen ridden stage with tunes about re patriotising America, how possessing gold gets you out of a life jam and how your relatives spoke the truth about fake politicians. I talk with bassist Steve Bradshaw after their rip-roaring Goat Stock set. The whole event was organized and produced by the rampaging yet intimate veteran alternative rock four-piece band 13- Monsters. No clowning around at yet another Local music showcase organized by the Rock N Roll Circus Side Show. I talk with longtime co 13 Monsters co-founders, singer Deb Sonzo, and guitarist Jamie Riani, along with new bassist John Stempien and drummer Stephan Krupiarz, who let you all know that Goat Stock is just the beginning of a sizzling future at Goat Village, live music and food wise.

Legions of Raum will make the walls and foundations of Tony D's in Elmwood Park decay at the end of July. I've got all the gaping details of the release show of the Chicago Hardcore Metal band's third album, The Decay

Pre programmed synthesizers and drum machines are not as dominant in the angry aggressive industrial metal sound of Programmable Animal today, as they were 11 years ago this week. The band, fronted By Anthony Drepsea Wonaitis has undergone drastic changes in sound. We rock back to their first and only Kat 105.5 studio appearance.
