TERMINAL TRANSMISSION #22: WHAT IS YOUR NAME?

TERMINAL TRANSMISSION #22: 

WHAT IS YOUR NAME? 

by Chris La Vigna (@Chris_LaVigna)

"And your name...what the fuck is your name?!"

Today's broadcast of TERMINAL TRANSMISSION, the final one of September 2020, was nice and smooth, like beads of water rolling down a dolphin's back. I don't know where I took that particular simile from, but it feels right. I played some impromptu songs today of my own composition. I think I'm going to start doing that more. It was fun and it felt like a new way for me to let loose. Look for the 7-inch of "I WILL KILL AGAIN" in your local record store soon!

My Bandcamp Pick Of The Week was the song "Karen" by Indentured, off their new EP "Resistance Etiquette." Indentured is a sick punk band out of Buffalo, New York which features Tré March (aka Tr38chno), perviously heard on the show via tracks from Old City and The Reserves. You can download the EP for free, but I encourage you to throw these upstate NY punx a few bucks!

I'm not sure why I went with the vague Lost Highway theme for this episode, but it felt right. It's one of my favorite David Lynch films, and in someways it feels like precursor to Mulholland Drive. Lynch has a great zeal for telling stories that concern fractured minds.

If you missed today's broadcast, you can stream it here via the Kpiss.fm website. You can also catch up on past shows here. Strap in everyone! The Halloween shows are a-comin'!

TRACK REVIEW: PET WIFE - BAD WAY

 TRACK REVIEW: PET WIFE - BAD WAY by Chris La Vigna ( @chrislavigna.bsky.social) Once again I am dusting off the blog to conjure up some words about some cool music that I feel that you need to check out.  Life has been an absolute chaotic psychic minefield as of late, and if you're like me, you're grasping for any piece of art to get you through the day, let alone the next four years or so. With that in mind: folks, it is my supreme pleasure to report to you that Brooklyn's PET Wife is back at it again with some more electro-pop realness. As if releasing their excellent album foam set this past spring wasn’t enough for us, their latest single, “ BAD WAY ” dropped in early October, and it has come to work its way to the top of all of your future Halloween/ Year-round Darksynth playlists, especially if you’re trying to organize your own D.I.Y. version of the blood rave sequence in Blade . It's a dark and dirty song, fast and ferocious, clocking in at one minute and fifty...

TRACK REVIEW: MAINTENANCE - "LOW LIFE"

TRACK REVIEW:  MAINTENANCE - "LOW LIFE" by Chris La Vigna ( @instant_insanity_productions ) "Alright, who's been putting 'shrooms in the dog food again?"                           It's been quite some time since I've felt compelled to post anything on this blog. Life comes at you fast, y'know? I suspect the fellas in Maintenance, who in my opinion are one of the most consistently interesting bands in the 914 music scene, would agree with that particular truism.  Though the band has been playing plenty of gigs over the last year or so, they have been largely quiet when it comes to dropping new music.  It's more than understandable when you consider just how deep of an impact the Covid-19 pandemic has had on not only the local music scene, but musicians and venues across the country. We've all had to adjust, re-organize, and re-prioritize what we've been doing with ourselves in some way or another. A...

You Should Be Watching YOUR PRETTY FACE IS GOING TO HELL

You Should Be Watching YOUR PRETTY FACE IS GOING TO HELL By Chris La Vigna ( @Chris_LaVigna) Slacker demon Gary Bunda (Henry Zebrowski) and his co-worker Ben (Ben Bladon) are doin' a Party Hole thang. You wouldn't understand. Life is Hell, right? That’s a sentiment we can all generally get behind, especially when it comes to our jobs, which seem to consume the majority of our existence on Earth. Well, what if the afterlife proved to be just as monotonous, mind-numbing, and (literally) soul crushing as your office job, with all those co-workers you hate and that supervisor that pisses all over you? That’s the premise of the Adult Swim show YOUR PRETTY FACE IS GOING TO HELL, a workplace comedy about demons working in the pits of Hades, taking Satan’s orders to get more souls. The show wrapped its fourth season in early 2019, and in the interest of promoting it to get it some more eyeballs and possibly help secure a fifth season, allow me to dive into all the...
