TERMINAL TRANSMISSION #25: THE CREATURE WILL HAVE HIS REVENGE

 TERMINAL TRANSMISSION #25: 

THE CREATURE WILL HAVE HIS REVENGE

by Chris La Vigna (@Chris_LaVigna)

...Oh crap, he sees you! RUN!


Today's brutal broadcast of TERMINAL TRANSMISSION was some of the most fun I've ever had on this show. For some reason everything just clicked today (aside from when I accidentally hit pause on that Mudvayne song for a second) and I felt like I was the kind of DJ that I love listening to on the radio myself: erratic and showy while also being sincere and down-to-earth. Here's hoping that I only get better at it from here.

My "Bandcamp Pick Of The Week" this time around was the song "Tennessee" by Bonnie And The Mere Mortals, off their EP of the same name. I can't even remember how I stumbled upon this band, definitely through some channel of social media, but I took to their self-described "Southern Gothic" style instantly. I urge you to buy their EP on Bandcamp, you won't regret it.

Also, here's that silly story about a mega-Godzilla fan getting to go on a date with the coolest kaiju around. I had a lot fun riffing on that one. I am totally not jealous of her at all!

If you missed today's show, you can stream it here via the Kpiss website. You can also catch up on past programs here. Enjoy the final weeks of October, you sinister stallions!

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...

A Poem: "Richard Bachman Tina Turner Overdrive"

  Richard Bachman Tina Turner Overdrive by Chris La Vigna ( @Chris_LaVigna ) "May a thousand apocalyptic sirens Sing me to sleep I can’t be held responsible For what happens otherwise Condemned to roam the chasm Between calling and craving Evoking a certain style of desperation For maximum engagement These electric eldritch abominations Won’t let me die I’m the closest you’ll ever get to a hero Yet I’ve stolen so much Love simulations Rage amplifications Resonance, dissonance, dissidence, decay I can give it all away For the proper price Video violence Stretching the bandwidth Your identity rests On how much you can take I’m the closest you’ll get to a hero But I can’t save you Too busy staring Into a time loop mirror Birth, growth, rot Birth, growth, rot Ad infinitum Ad nauseam Still figuring out the difference All I know is: Legacy Is A Lie ...
