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.

NOVEMBER 11, 2024

I don’t really want to talk about what happened last Tuesday. In all honesty, I’m not very surprised. I lost faith in the American people a long time ago. I think my playlist this week speaks for itself.

And, once again, you have people saying “well, at least we’ll get some good punk rock.” Fuck off. There’s been good punk rock all along. You’re just not looking. And, truth be told, I’d listen to some top 40 swill if it meant he never served another day in office.

I will say this—if you’re one of those conservative “punks,” don’t listen to this show. Don’t send me messages. Just go pound sand. There’s nothing remotely punk about racism, misogyny, homophobia, extreme nationalism and reveling in the misery of others. Once again, fuck off.

Play this one loud… and this show’s for Pat Lynch, who passed away three years ago this week.
