Tonight!
It's April and there's more snow coming to Winterpeg. So stay indoors and listen to metal all day and every day! Note, if you don't have all day to listen to metal how about just the first three hours? (midnight-3AM)

03/14/2023

TONIGHT!!
More new music than a 3-hour show can even contain, but we're still gonna try. About 18 new and upcoming releases to check out as well as some classic blast-y tracks to fill the gaps between. It should be an onslaught of brutality, noise, and hidden gems. Be sure to tune in at midnight tonight.
-Paul

03/07/2023

TONIGHT!!
Instead of a ton of bands I'm gonna play some tracks from a select few recent releases: Dusk-Spectrums, Primordial Serpent-Adversary of God, Tryglav-The Ritual, Nocturnal Departure-Clandestine Theurgy, and a rare live album by Rotting Christ. There will probably end of being more than just those 5 albums but those will be the main focus tonight.

Although I have lots of new music to play tonight it felt important to have some kind of memoriam for drummer Gabe Serbian (The Locust, Head Wound City, Holy Molar, Cattle Decapitation) however rushed and awkward it may turn out. I realized over the last 48 hours how much these albums meant to a Canadian kid listening to tons of experimental grindcore in the early 2000s. So tonight's episode may be a bit heavy on songs under 1 minute, hope you enjoy.
