Under the Smoky Sky

Under the Smoky Sky

Welcome to Episode 41 of Doc Rockavoy's Indy Music Garage! It has been some time since I posted some music, mostly since I've been slowly acquiring some new vinyl, and have not much to play. The summer is in doldrums at the moment, so I figured it was a good time to get a show going. Somber, humid, languid, alienated, joyful. We've been good this summer, and hope all of you have been as well.

I put a couple special items on the show. The Montreal band Jet Black sent me the promo of their new record, "In Paradox," and if you like Swervedriver, you will like Jet Black. Dischord Records released in the recent past the Rites of Spring demo to their album, and there is a track from that on the show. I put on some Zomes, one of Asa Osbourne's many projects. There's a rare pre-Opal track on here, when Kendra Smith, Keith Mitchell, and David Roback first got together to track. I decided to catch up on my Bardo Pond vinyl, so there's some here as well. There's two bands from Modern Peasant Records, Red Cities and The Sinners, on the show whose albums are out in the next 1-3 weeks.

The track list is: Bardo Pond, Red Cities, Jet Black, Rites of Spring, Flying Saucer Attack, Mazzy Star, Opal, The Sinners, My Bloody Valentine, Bardo Pond, Zomes, Flying Saucer Attack, My Blood Valentine, Flying Saucer Attack, Bardo Pond, Swervedriver-live.

Thanks for tuning in!

Cheers,

Doc Rockavoy
