This week, we lost an iconic musician, engineer, producer and die-hard defender of independent musicians, Steve Albini. From his creations with Big Black and Shellac, to his production work with bands like Pixies, Nirvana, Slint, Wedding Present and Jesus Lizard, he was a powerhouse in the Chicago music scene and influential world-wide. This week's show will be a tribute to Steve Albini, his music and the music he helped make happen. Strap in, it's going to get noisy. Sunday, 5-6 pm EST streaming on WQSV.org and 106.3 FM.

What will you find when you glance into the abyss? The jagged, jittery energy of post-punk, the dark gloom of goth, the angry chaos of no wave, the sensation of dancing alone to cold wave, maybe you will find the need to embrace your own existential dread or maybe the abyss will just glance back. And wink. Tune in Sundays from 5 to 6 pm for A Glance into the Abyss and discover what lies beyond. Only on WQSV.org 106.3 fm Staunton.
