It's the end of Facebook as we know it (maybe)... but the show goes on! It's not the faces, but the voices that carry the unique and diverse sound of metal, punk ,alternative, prog rock and power pop from all over Chicagoland and Illinois.
No Dead Heroes comes alive this Saturday night at Liar's Club. They have a rapid fire groove (especially bass, drums and angry lead vocals), but a very droning guitar sound much like classic 70s doom metal. I talk to singer/guitarist Ronnie DiCola, drummer Frank Lombardo, and bassist Gabe Lipari.
Not Pantera, but dangerously close, Chicago's Mudfish takes over the town of Joliet, opening for hardcore Southern metal duo, Texas Hippie Coalition Sunday at The Forge. Something face melting and teeth cracking from them. And the old west meets the modern day horror metal of Spamicidal Jelly, where all the band members not only jam, their last names are all the same as a sweet toast spread.
Southern rock gets the chance to pig...not just rock... out, again. Hogtown Packing Co moseyed in from south of the Michigan/Indiana border line. I interviewed founding members Andy Ross & Michael Lubecke in The Kat 105.5 studio about this throwback band of Outlaw Country meets Bluesy Southern Rock ten years ago this week. A rock back to that.
In addition to these, you' re matching the faces with the voices of the movers and shakers in he Chicagoland & Illinois music scene, and liking what you hear, with a head bang , not a thumbs up emoji, when you rock to:
