A huge thank you to Jason Kowalski (drummer), one of the founding members of the highly influential, viscerally contagious November 17. Co-founder, Jason made this interview possible by bringing the other founding member Chris Cannella to the plate. N17 has been a catalyst to the crust or formation to so many other metal, industrial rock, and death metal bands that found their passion because of the beast that these guys formulated in the mid 90s. If you have been in the metal scene at all you have experienced these guys in various forms from Autumns End, Malevolent Creation, Misssion 66, and even more including Rorschach Test! Chris Cannella comes with pedigree and stories that blew our minds from his friendship to Kerry King, shredding in Deicide, being Eddie Van Halen's product mgr and now Malevolent Creation is bringing down the ceiling somewhere near you! Preparing for one final show this year, Chris brings the stories, the music and the tell-all (most) of November 17's roller coaster ride through the industry and still remaining a stalwart punch in the face to metal fans everywhere!

Norwegian Soft Kitten slashes out with vicious irreverence to conformity, challenging any alt-rock genre while encompassing the best facets of every rock genre. THEY ROCK. You may find yourself asking Alan Greene (drums, vocals, etc) and Glenn Berggoetz why they defy the norm and somehow come out with amazingly tantalizing releases that will make any music maestro shrug with confusion, while the headbanger nods approval and the progressive lyrical geniuses laugh with belly guffaws and ask themselves, "why didn't I think of that?" In their own words: Aimless two-piece rock and/or roll outfit. Glenn pitches ideas and Alan sighs disapprovingly (also vice versa).

#oldies #45's #dads45s See those hashtags? A snow day is not necessarily a SNOW DAY, by contemporary understanding. No, this takes us back to my dad, Donald Fairhead, former teacher, and what he acknowledged as a snow day when a blustery winter day prompted school closings, a warm fire in the fireplace and the smell of vinyl scraping a needle! That's right kids, snow or not, you called off of work, cracked some cold ones, sat in front of the fire and shuffled your old 45's! Join #Davidjfairhead and his father as they trip down the oldies road, spinning songs and stories.

Lets talk some indie film making! Veteran writer, director, and actor, JD Ellenberger returns with his darkest piece yet; the morose indie horror of Lachrymose Primrose is unveiled tonight, invoking emotions that we only exude in the dark following personal loss. After the unexpected death of his daughter (Chloe Ruth), Caleb McCallum (Tedd Bodnar), a washed-up best-selling author hits rock bottom as he turns to the bottle and a life of solitude in an attempt to cope with his inner demons. His wife, Elizabeth (Michelle Mullins), may be the only one who can save him.

The Walking Dead finally infiltrates KWR with the gorgeously charming "Princess" Paola Lazaro (a.k.a. Juanita Sanchez) and Brad Fleischer who plays Keith (Tortured by Aaron) talking their most fortunate experience with director Greg Nicotero.
