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 streamed or downloaded from the archive at sonicoverload.blogspot.com. And check out the Facebook page.

Buy Me A Coffee

 

MARCH 31, 2025

 

Someone mentioned awhile back if there have been any shows where I haven’t had to do a tribute to someone. Unfortunately, it’s rarely been the case lately. This week’s show goes out in memory of Katie Valdivia, better known to just about everyone as Katie Kay. Another friend I had only sporadically stayed in touch with. There weren’t any hard feelings but, unfortunately, you lose track of people. I wish there was a way to be better about that…
