Gruesome and groovin'. Whether you mosh like a mummy or mash like a monster, I've scared up another sweet assortment of original Chicagoland and Illinois metal, punk. alternative, progressive rock, and power pop. This is guaranteed to rock all your body and ear cavities, and not cause decay, or leave a bitter aftertaste.
Bullet To The Heart is bringing Goth Rock to the masses. Through the passionate and sensual singing of Audrey Queen, and the driving, heavy rhythms and searing guitar and drum work of Draven DC, Tom Monroe, and Brian Banschek, they continue to churn out compelling meoldic hard rock with a horror movie and medieval inspired lyrical approach. I talk to Audrey and Draven about their new music video and single, Heathen.
Local Punk fans are pogoing for joy, with the return of Punk The Burbs 4. This annual gathering of Punks of all kinds from Skate to Skinheads was cancelled due to COVID's horrific spread last year. It's on this year at Tivoli Bowl in Downers Grove. I've got a preview.
Halloween weekend comes alive with a real music filled Death Fest. Featuring Southland's hard rockers Khaos Ordinance, and Prison City Brigade, far West of Joliet, While Evil Engine motors out of an extensive COVID lockdown to return to The Forge in Joliet and Reggies. Singer Kryssie Ridolphi leaves her Cherry Witress costume ( and persona) for these gigs.
Life often imitates art. Five years ago this week the life of an obscure Chicago metal band did not imitate a popular 80s video game. Only the band's name imitated the game, and it almost was a legal hassle. A rock back to when I discovered Satan's Hallow.
