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.

JULY 13, 2026

Back after a week off—I really needed it. I love doing this show but I don’t want summer to pass without doing things away from the show. And I would love summer—and all days—to pass without any more state-sanctioned murder, like with the latest ICE acts of terror against people in Maine and Texas. And I hope that anyone listening to this approves of that fucks right off and doesn’t listen to me anymore. I don’t want you involved in any aspect of my life.

This week’s show is in memory of my lifelong friend Jeff Cohen, who passed away last week. It’s sad that a decent person like Jeff leaves us while MAGA scum stick around long past their expiration date.
