Sound Salvation is resurrected with a howlingly good Halloween playlist that will weak the dead at your All Hallow’s Eve bash.
Mixtape 137 :: melatonezone
- The Lacking Organization
- October 23, 2020
To make illuminati hotties for your gathering, splash melody and harsh noise into a tumbler, drop in some production trickery, and shake until you hear a dizzying howl emerge
Mixtape 135 :: Bottle Rocket Baby
- The Lacking Organization
- October 9, 2020
Hissing steam and spitting fire, the Old 97s chew up the rails and cross-ties by playing country music with a punk attitude.

Bill Callahan has been wandering the halls of music for quite some time now, his deep voice and aimless arrangements a constant hypnotic presence.
Four-Letter Words
- Sound Salvation
- August 3, 2020
No need to worry about offending delicate sensibilities with this playlist. We’re not talking about profanity, so just take the title at face value.
Episode 102: Drama King
- The Lacking Organization
- May 29, 2020
As you may suspect, Peter Bjorn and John hail from Sweden, and as you may expect, they do Anglophonic indie pop better than the Anglophones.

Artificial Heart (Jonathan Coulton). Review by Carl F Gauze.
Atari Teenage Riot
- Event Reviews
- October 4, 2011
Atari Teenage Riot came to Firestone Live to pound out the techno into a modern political landscape where the people rise above totalitarian and authoritarian control. It’s the kind of futuristic idealism that local scribe Eric Donath can’t miss, and to ice that cake is Otto von Schirach, a bass-heavy freak with street-cred like a rap-sheet symphony.

He Came from the Swamp: The William Grefe Collection Blu-ray
- Screen Reviews
- January 13, 2021
In spite of, or perhaps because of, the films’ budget and time restraints the filmography of William Grefé is not without considerable charm and which is masterfully captured in this four disc Blu-ray set from Arrow Video.
