Iowa Basement Tapes #271 10-11-2023 GUEST: BEN SMASHER

Night Listeners -It is criminal to think that it has taken five years to have Ben Smasher on this show. I can say honestly that Iowa Basement Tapes would not exist if it wasn't for him and his original archive of Iowa music, 319dude.bandcamp.com. He was also half of Iowa's black metal act, Satan's Almighty Penis and had several other projects including Cannibal Horse, Clean Mountain, and Harm.Satan's Almighty Penis - "It Bleeds" / Pulsing Feral Spire (Cedar Rapids)Phafner - "Plea from the Soul" / Phafner (Marshalltown)Docktor Maxx - "Feel it Comin" / Klowns of God (Cedar Rapids)Old Scratch Revival Singers - "Mother of Larabee" / Oh, Didn't He Ramble (Iowa City)The Roughousers - "Beggin, Ya Please" / Woodchip Soul (Iowa City)Luxury - "Stupidest Thing" / Stupidest Thing (Des Moines) Our home station 98.9FM KFMG has nominated me for BEST RADIO VOICE THAT TURNS YOU ON for this year's CITYVIEW BEST OF DES MOINES.
