Six more weeks of winter or an early spring. The forecast for plenty of original new local metal, punk, prog, alt-rock, grunge and power pop is bright and sunny. We don't need no stinking groundhog to tell us that. So shadow dance to the tunes if you must, because there's certainly a lot to groove and rock to.
Alex Uridel has been active in the Joliet /Aurora music scene since 1998. His biggest project was the rap/alt-rock quartet The Streets. On his new third solo EP, Friction, he blends the high energy screaming vocal filled style of post alternative rock with gangsta rap.
There will be a lot of tackling and goofy dances ,but not in the end zone of Tampa Bay on Super Bowl Weekend. The first annual Punk In The Bin at The Looney Bin in Bradley will feature hard hitting aggressive local punk, including Joliet's Prison City Brigade.
Cory James became one of the most distinctive screaming singers in the Chicagoland hard rock and metal scene, starting with Dark Passenger. While Dead Man's Hand welcomed new fiery singer Laurence Dutch Devries, to mark their 10th anniversary as one of Joliet's biggest old school thrash metal bands. We rock back nine and four years ago this week when both rocked the airwaves.
Along with these, you're shadow slam dancing the groundhog back into his hole in the earth with:
