TERMINAL TRANSMISSION #32: BEYOND THE GREEN HOLE

 TERMINAL TRANSMISSION #32: 

BEYOND THE GREEN HOLE

by Chris La Vigna (@Chris_LaVigna)

"Green Hole! Green hole!/ Got a burning hoooole...GREEN HOLE!"


Today's broadcast of TERMINAL TRANSMISSION was good, if not a little rocky thanks to some slight technical difficulties. I swear, macs always find a new way to screw you over at the worst possible moment. What a massive pain in the ass they can be. But overall, the show was a good time.

My "Bandcamp Pick Of The Week" for this program was the terrific track "Rob And Steal" by Left In The Attic, an amazing three-piece punk band straight outta the Bronx. I've known of Left In The Attic for years, saw them play countless shows in Fordham, and my first band J.C.D. even played a few shows with them. They're always a good time, and I sincerely hope to see them rock out live again once Covid-19 stops wreaking havoc upon the denizens of this defective nation.

Today's episode is named after a ridiculous short I made with some fellow local filmmakers this past weekend, as part of the Sick 'N' Wrong Film Festival's "72 Hour Film Debacle." As the name suggests, we had 72 hours to conceive an idea, script it, shoot it, and edit it for the livestream festival that they'll be throwing this Friday. If you're feeling it, please tune in and check out my short, as well as the works of numerous competing teams of artists from around the globe!

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. December marches on!

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 ...
