Welcome to the webpage for Sonic
Overload. As my regular listeners know by now, I play punk, hardcore, garage
and other loud music, although there are surprises from time to time as well as
decidedly slanted commentary on the “issues of the day” and that’s also
presented through song selections and audio clips.
All of the shows from January 2009 to
the present are archived for download at sonicoverload.blogspot.com.
And check out the Facebook
page.

Catching up a bit on the new and recent releases
this week but still finding time to mix in older songs, as well, I go back to
the early 60s, paying tribute to surf guitar legend and pioneer Dick Dale, who
passed away yesterday. His music certainly had an influence on punk, especially
Agent Orange (who covered “Miserlou,” his best-known song and the one you
probably know from “Pulp Fiction) and Dead Kennedys… and just about every surf
style band. A true innovator.
