Every Man For Himself

Welcome to Episode 36 of Doc Rockavoy's Indy Music Garage! Well, the Fall equinox is upon us and the seasonal shift in sunlight is making everyone tired. After a scorching hot summer, we got our first rain this week, which caused the trees to perk up. Hopefully these hot summers will not be the norm, as mother nature does what it wants no matter what you believe about science. Nothing really going on lately, except skateboarding and Spencer starting school, so there's nothing to report. I hope everyone celebrated themselves over Labor Day weekend!

Today I put on some stuff I don't listen to very often, bands like Faraquet, Skinyard, Q and Not U, The Evens, Slant 6 among others. These bands are great, though! I put on a Skinyard tune that has the infamous Helios Creed on second guitar, so all you Hawkwind fans should dig it, and you'll note how often Helios Creed has been ripped off by other bands! I started the show with "Teenager in a Box" by Government Issue, which was a rare 7" EP that had Brian Baker on guitar. My friend Kasey owned it, and I have it on tape, but Dischord released the GI Complete Sessions, so it's available again. There's some Obits, Times New Viking (the Slitbreeze Records EP), and Articles of Faith, which has influenced a lot of loud, math-rocky types of bands, notably the local OKC band CHUD. The new Redd Kross album is on here, too.

The show is about 80 minutes, and the playlist is: Government Issue, Dream Syndicate, Broncho, Obits, Depth and Current, Off!, Times New Viking, Slant 6, Faraquet, Redd Kross, Rites of Spring, Scream, Lungfish, Dag Nasty, The Faith, Fugazi, 7 Seconds, The Evens, Skinyard, The Cult, Q and Not U, Scream, The Stooges, Dag Nasty, The Dirtbombs, Code of Honor.

Thanks for tuning in!

Cheers,

Doc Rockavoy
