New show with a stunning array of berserk musical acts from about 1973 to the present - it's Dynamite Hemorrhage Radio #38, and I hope you choose to listen to it. The first track, a newer-than-new, skittering one-minute spastic artpunk jam from Northwest Indiana's CCTV, will have you hooked for another hour - on this you shall mark my words. Other new bands in the mix this time include B...

It's another edition of our hour-long series of podcasts/mixtapes/fake radio shows called DYNAMITE HEMORRHAGE RADIO, coming to you for the 37th time since we kicked off this relatively rewarding endeavor late in 2012. I focused this one pretty laser-like on new stuff, both new bands and new reissues. In the former category, we've got stuff from Numb Bats, Good Throb, Advlts, Pang, Trick...

Another edition in a series of podcasts in which the host plays music, talks (too much?), cries, shares stories, insults music he doesn't like and generally gazes at his navel - figuratively, of course. It's all in good fun, ladies and gentlemen, and that's maybe why the kids keep coming back - that and the amazingly righteous selection of sub-underground rocknroll from the last fif...

Every other week I seek to give unto the people a 60/90-minute streaming/downloadable pretend radio show, recorded on my laptop at the back of my house. This happens to be one of those fortnights. DYNAMITE HEMORRHAGE RADIO #35 is 85 minutes of new underground & independent noise, garage pop & obscurities from the last five decades. This show's marked itself as having a particularly an...

If you're paying attention even a little bit, there really still is just too much great rocknroll music pouring out of basements and dark clubs worldwide to stuff into a 60-minute phony radio show every two weeks - yet I do try. The list of things I wanted to play is longer than the list of things I played, but I guess that's what happens when you shoehorn in a nine-minute, feedback-lade...

Download the 33rd edition of Dynamite Hemorrhage Radio here, w/ new stuff from PANG, VELO, WET BLANKETS, AUSMUTEANTS, TRAMPOLINE TEAM and more, plus an exploration of the recent "Punk 45" compilation and all sorts of shuckin' and jivin'.Track listing:WET BLANKETS - TV SuicideAUSMUTEANTS – Felix Tried To Kill Himself LUNG LEG – Kung Fu on the Internet ANGST – Die Fighting IRREPE...

There's a mighty wind of righteous and gnarly tuneage blowing across my computer in the form of DYNAMITE HEMORRHAGE RADIO #32, our (appx.) bi-weekly podcast of the best and brightest raw, sub-underground rock music of the last 50 years. Given that I'd been m.i.a. for three weeks, I tacked on an additional 15 minutes of crazed RnR, extending the life of this podcast past our normal hour l...

Normally I'll wait a full two weeks before recording a new Dynamite Hemorrhage Radio for the people, but I had an overflowing digital crate of desirable mp3s that I couldn't even lift anymore, so I've unburdened myself with this outstanding 25-song, hour-long podcast that's arguably the best mixtape anyone's made in 2014 so far. Modesty aside, I'm pretty sure it'...

Action, time and vision take center stage in the 30th edition of Dynamite Hemorrhage Radio, a bi-weekly music podcast featuring only good music from the past fifty years. This week we debut some new material from MANE, HOUSEHOLD, PAMPERS, ROACHCLIP and GROWTH, as well as "catalog" tracks from spectacular bands like The Sperm Wails, Cheater Slicks, Angst, Modern Lovers, Methodishca Tune (...

Dynamite Hemorrhage Radio returns in 2014 with a show so packed with hits that we had to exceed our 1-hour cutoff a little, so we hope you'll forgive the extra 7 or 8 minutes here. We think it's well worth your while to finish all 68 minutes, or else how would you be able to fully ingest outstanding new material from Octapgrape, the Ausmuteants (pictured here), Warm White, Veronica Falls...

Hey, it's our 28th phony radio show and final edition of the podcast for 2013. In just over an hour, you'll experience a revelatory unearthed version of a classic Velvet Underground song; stellar new stuff from Household, Ausmuteants, Roachclip, Juniper Rising, The Nots, Burnt Palms and Slum of Legs; plus additional righteous gnarl from the last four decades. Playlist:PETTY CRIME - Mathe...

New show, recorded on a laptop on our day off from work, instead of enjoying the sunshine and outdoor large-motor skill activities. I've got new stuff for you: HOUSEHOLD's new EP, for instance - or one song from it. Just came out. We're on it! Other new things include stuff from Dreamsalon, Bikes, Veronica Falls, The Nots, Ausmuteants, Roachclip, The Clits and other bands with class...

One would think after listening to DYNAMITE HEMORRHAGE RADIO #26 that there were a multitude of severely happening bands on the planet in late 2013, and you know, one might even be right. I've done my best to scout the hottest talent from across the globe the past two weeks, and have come up with 23 examples of loud, fast, hard, melodic, arty, dirty, gnarly rock and roll music from a bunch of...

Help me celebrate the silver anniversary of Dynamite Hemorrhage Radio Podcast by downloading #25 right here. As I try to make a custom of, this one's bursting with new material from all over the world - nay, the English-speaking world - including winners from PAMPERS; SEPTEMBER GIRLS; SEX TIDE; JOANNA GRUESOME; SPRAY PAINT; THE FIREWORKS and DREAMSALON. There's also a nod to our forefath...

Here's the latest in a 24-part series of rocknroll podcasts and phony radio shows recorded on my laptop. DYNAMITE HEMORRHAGE RADIO #24 is among the more mellow of the shows of recent vintage, all things considered, salted liberally w/ a few world-destroying punk rock and noise acts. New records this show include releases from JOANNA GRUESOME, SEX TIDE, BYRON COLEY, FREELOVE FENNER, PLUME, NUM...

I'm doing my best to crank out an hour of music for Dynamite Hemorrhage's several dozen listeners every two weeks, and mission accomplished this time, with DYNAMITE HEMORRHAGE RADIO #23 coming out just about two weeks to the day from the last one I recorded in Norway (!). This one was able to shoehorn 24 songs in a mere 1 hour, 2 minutes - that's a lot of short, aggressive songs. As...

The newest episode of my hour-long music podcast, DYNAMITE HEMORRHAGE RADIO (#22), was recorded in a hotel room in Oslo, Norway this week, rather than in our home base of San Francisco. See if you can detect a distinct "Scandinavian" flair to the show, to say nothing of the babbling and storytelling brought on by extreme jet lag. With a plate of smoked salmon by my side and speed skaters...

To close out September 2013 in fine style, I've strung together 21 quality rocknroll compositions, grouped them into logical clusters, added some pithy and often insightful commentary, and called it DYNAMITE HEMORRHAGE RADIO, Edition #21. It's the bi-weekly podcast I do. I hope you download it here. New stuff this time from Neonates, Los Tentakills, Ruby Pins, The Ar-Kaics and even the q...

It's all about the young musicmakers of today this time on DYNAMITE HEMORRHAGE RADIO - this 65-minute podcast features a bunch of 'em, including brand new stuff from Household, Neonates, Wildhoney, The Ar-Kaics, Toxie, Terry Malts, Ruby Pins and even the swan song from Sic Alps. Holy mackerel. I also took a page directly from the book of New Zealand's (and The Dead C's) Bruce R...

This is the nineteenth edition of Dynamite Hemorrhage Radio Podcast (#19), and this time around I've got some stunning new stuff from RUBY PINS, THE AR-KAICS, SIMPLE CIRCUIT, SKINNY GIRL DIET and CONSTANT MONGREL. It's about an hour, all told. The older material includes a lot of daffy, developmentally-delayed rocknroll this time around, including messed-up sideways punk from The Silver,...

Dynamite Hemorrhage Radio Podcast #18 features some new releases by CONSTANT MONGREL, SKINNY GIRL DIET and the OCCASIONAL FLICKERS, as well as host of underground and obscure releases from the past forty years by The Piranhas, Deep Wound, Detective Agency, The Wilderness Children, 8 Eyed Spy, Mondo Guano, The Coachwhips, The Delmonas, Whitefronts and many more. Songs I like. Songs I want YOU to li...
