Hone your steel for fresh blood as Jim highlights some favourites of 2024, the Oxygen Destroyer show, Vancouver Noise Fest, the scene in his hometown of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, and much more!

Coleman throws down his AOTY gauntlet for 2024, spotlight on upcoming shows from Castle, Oxygen Destroyer, and the Well; and few other critical faves from the year.

Ferris in the hateful chair this week, fumbling and flailing through a pile of extreme music both new and time-tested. Joining the free-wheeling madman is Powerchord Radio's fresh blood, the terrifying and mysterious Jim. Listeners are given a taste of the new host's sinister selections, foreshadowing a dark and fruitful chapter of community radio excellence.

Coleman is joined LIVE at CiTR headquarters by his extremely mature friends Erik, Chops, and a fart machine. They discuss Chops' Edmonton based band Mongo Doom, a few local gigs from Ruin Lust, and Unto Others, the imminent return of Suffering Hour, initial lineup of next years' Prepare the Ground fest in Toronto, some killer new music, and much obnoxious flatulence. Bask!

A tour of upcoming local shows with Coleman; from Devouring Void's album release, Blood Incantation's return, resurrection of local faves The Moor, and most importantly: a ticket giveaway for the impending KING DIAMOND show!! All that plus a heap of new releases, and a birthday dedication for a real special gal xoxox

Coleman is at the helm, kicking things off with the A-side of the highly anticipated new album from Blood Incantation, then gets to hyping up the new Kayas album and associated release show, a sample of the upcoming Varning from Montreal fest, and other sick and killer things of a deadly nature.

With the threat of an impending release from the braincaving choates MITOCHONDRION, Ferris does his best to prepare. Eulogy offered to Auroch, and directions on where to find its still-writhing tendrils. A smattering of longsongs keeps the playlist short, but DENSE.

Coleman gets psyched about going to the "Night Engulfs Life" tour, hypes the upcoming Hacked Apart tour kickoff, a Slow Death Records showcase in Victoria, the upcoming return of Deicide to Vancouver, and a heap of killer new music from Mammoth Grinder, Immortal Bird, 1349, and more. DIE.

After a few weeks' unplanned hiatus, Coleman returns for more scowl-inducing sounds, with spots on upcoming local gigs from Conan, Nervosa, Hacked Apart; the inaugural INFEST in Edmonton; the 20th anniversary of the debut album from The Ruins of Beverast, and more.

This show is full of great music and a ton of mistake through out the show and only one turntable works. I play the first side of the new ULVIK album It is so good . Please check out the show. Oldirty Hick

Previews of some gigs, new local and international extremity, and a few older and weirder numbers interspersed with the usual amount of screwing up and rambling - courtesy of host Ferris. Guaranteed good listening or your money back.

Coleman is joined LIVE in studio by former host and Powerchord brother, Chris "The Mountain" for a run down of upcoming local death metal gigs from Phrenelith, Necrot, and more; new music from Misyrion, Krash, Spectral Wound, Wormwitch, Pallbearer, and others. Not much for clean vox or chill vibes on this one, mostly just aural punishment. Please enjoy.

Death Metal, Sludge, Garage Rock, Punk

Ferris blitzes through a shitload of upcoming local gigs and local tunes. That's basically it. Listen at your own peril, or leisure.

Ian and Drew are back to praise the gods of metal and throw down some epic riffs and fantastical tales of swords and sorcery! We'll also dig a classic tracks from Motörhead and Mötley Crüe out of The Graveyard! Drink from the chalice and descend into the depts of the abyss with us!

SO Last NIght.... Oh we aren't going talk about that...Ummmmmm We got some stellar tracks of long weirdness to help these two trashbags through this Saturday afternoon. We have some brand new Local vinyls just acquired from Spell a brand new 7" and Reversed just released the LP Wildly Possessed. Brand new Melvins and new Clouds Taste Satanic. We are feeling trashy and these tracks are just hitting...

Coleman is up with spotlights on Have a Good Laugh Fest and Maryland Death Fest, the upcoming album release show for Unleash the Archers, new music from Reversed, Thou, and more.
