Local Loft Episode 136

Summer chased by autumn,COVID-19 chased by the awesome sonic power of original metal,punk,prog,alt-rock and power pop from around Chicagoland and Illinois. Nothing lasts forever,not seasons,nor virus pandemics. While we await the day and year when we can all gather without masks and social distancing to experience live local music again,gather within close proximity of a wi-fi connection and rock the bad vibes of the invisible enemy away.

Even Record Store Day has suffered because of limit physical trips to your favorite brick and mortar place to add to the music collection. That'd not stopping veteran doom sludge Chicago metal band Pale Horseman from releasing a new colored splatter vinyl LP pressing of their new fifth full length album,For Dust Thou Art. I drop the digital stylus on two tracks from it.

90's alt rock veterans Local H aim to have a crowd of small or large size, spread out and rocking at a Labor Day weekend outdoor BBQ bash in Lombard. Naperville's Day Time Hooker and Joliet's The Story Unwritten will rev up the audience.

Forgotten Female fronted Joliet alt rockers Orleanna brought a touch of Broadway musicals to their sexy and angry sound. We rock back 9 years to the first of September,when I first introduced them to radio listeners in the Joliet/Kankakee region.
