NOSTALGIA REIGNS SUPREME: Today's Underground vs. Mainstream Live Music Experience (music)

On this episode of THE HEAVY GALAXY SHOW, Matt & John start things off by discussing their recent interviews for the show with Dozer/Wino/Kenny Hickey, followed by a discussion regarding the recent inductions into the rock-n-roll hall of fame and their continued disregard for rock and metal bands as a whole. The music kicks in gear with new videos from Portland proto-metal vets DANAVA and the Austin's HIGH DESERT QUEEN. The guys follow that up with an in-depth discussion on the modern day live music experience and their appreciation and preference of underground shows at smaller venues over the more costly and less intimate experience of live music held at larger venues. Gist discusses his involvement in RIPPLE MUSIC bands WOLFNAUT and KAISER and their most recent releases on the SF Bay Area label and features music videos from both. This episode's ROCK CITY SPOTLIGHT segment is the New York/New Jersey heavy rock scene and featured discussion and videos from MONSTER MAGNET, THE ATOMIC BITCHWAX, RESTLESS SPIRIT, BLACK WATER RISING and SPOTLIGHTS.
