Put this in your ear.
If you are like me, you eschew music that is over-produced and embrace music that is raw and impassioned. Only that raw music is harder to find than the stuff you'll her on commercial radio. So where can you go for that under-the-radar, raw music that sounds like it was recorded in a basement or a garage?
Look no further than the GaragePunk podcast network. This network of podcasts will give you all the raw (some might say primitive) rock and roll you could ever want.
Say you want surf. Check out the GaragePunk Surfcast, which features bands like The Bambi Molestors from Croatia (yes, a surf band from Croatia.)
If it is live performances you want, check Out of the Vault, Into Your Ears. This podcast features live performances by bands like The Mummies. Oh, and it also featured a live performance by The Cramps at CBGB in 1977. Where else are you going to find a gem like that?
Other podcasts on the network that are worth checking out are: Sonic Nightmares, Killed By Porn, and Way Past Cool.

Hod dog! Its great to see an article espousing the merits of wild and primitive music on a place as widely read as the Examiner. In this age of internet information overload folks sometimes need to be pointed in a direction that they may not have known that they were looking for. So, thanks a ton, and keep listening!
Postcasting is the future of radio.

Michael, I dig your show, and a lot of the others on GaragePunk. Podcasting is the future of radio and you don't have to put up with sappy emo bands. I say let's have less slick, more raw and powerful music.
Got something to say?
