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.

APRIL 20, 2026

Please forgive my very scratchy-sounding voice this week. I’ve had some kind of cough or respiratory thing the past week and was going to say fuck it for the week, but what else am I going to do? And I’m starting to get back to my bad old self. As opposed to my good young self—that ship sailed a long time ago.
