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.
Listen to Sonic Overload live every
Wednesday from 9 to 11 PM eastern on Old
FX Punk Radio
All of the shows from January 2009 to
the present are archived for download at sonicoverload.blogspot.com.
And check out the Facebook

JULY 24, 2017
The
drought for good shows around here has finally ended and I’ve seen some ragers
the last week or so, culminating with Negative Approach the other night, at a
hot, sticky, sweaty Hardcore Stadium (not a real stadium but an Elks lodge in
Cambridge) the other night—so this week’s opening song was a no-brainer. I also
reminded their vocalist John Brannon that NA’s first local show was 35 years
ago next month—August 13, 1982—at the Gallery East, as part of the Process of
Elimination tour. And I’m pretty sure I was the only person besides John at
both shows… ah well, I suppose there are worse things I could be doing now,
right?
