Next Thursday: TWO shows
Two polar opposite shows next Thursday, November 17th… can you believe the year is over in almost six weeks. One show could be labeled as “light”, while the other, undoubtedly is blatantly “heavy”. Whatever suits your taste. If you missed REAL ESTATE in April, then don’t miss them this Fall when they return to […]
Update
People of Earth: I’ve been sick the past couple of days so I haven’t been posting at all this week. Also we’re finally ending a heavy run of shows, so I can start being more diligent with posts. Just waiting on some content. Today’s POF Radio was a repeat due to me being under the […]

Two shows tonight (dallas/denton)
This will be my third time to bring Los Angeles HC act TOUCHÉ AMORÉ to the DFW metroplex in 2011. They continue to build a steady following of young fans for their lyrically driven melodic hardcore sound with punk aesthetics. TOUCHÉ AMORÉ played Bro Fest 2011 in March and then a wild one at Rubber […]
Interview: TV GHOST
by transBLENDER Rarely do bands make me think “what the fuck” in a positive light. Usually when that thought process occurs, my inner monologue says “Why was this made. This was a waste of studio time.” Then I promptly give myself a lobotomy. Indiana’s TV GHOST first caught my attention when I was walking by […]
