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.
Recent shows can be downloaded from the
archive at sonicoverload.blogspot.com. And check out the Facebook page.

NOVEMBER 28, 2022
Time for the annual
all-covers show, which I do the Monday after Thanksgiving. To me, what makes a
good or even great cover version is when a band adds their own wrinkle or ups
the ante a bit. Perhaps deconstructing something or throwing any sort of nuance
out the window. And if you’re covering one of the all-time great bands, you’d
better bring it or don’t even bother. A fair number of new entries this year,
along with some favorites from past covers shows.
