The Unquiet Grave Episode 49: Scattered, Smothered, and Covered (Noise Rock)

Sun, May 1, 2022

Tonight from 9-11pm we’ll explore Noise Rock—think Unsane, not Sonic Youth (heavy stuff!)—listening to foundational classics from the early-to-mid-90s as well as youngbloods carrying the torch today, with a special emphasis on the terrific French record label Solar Flare and their stable of incredible noise rock notables.

You can listen to a recording of this episode here (and in fact all my extant episodes are now located at this link for listening or relistening!).

Thanks for listening and tune in next week for a look at the year 1993 in heavy metal!
