I'm back from the pit of despair that was an inoperative internet service and diving into Episode 90 this week!

This week is the 'AMRAP Song Wrap'! I'm playing as many bands as I can that I've discovered through the Australian Music Radio Airplay Project (and maybe a couple that I found elsewhere, but are also on AMRAP).

So, it's all Australian, all night! I've found so many great Aussie bands in the last several months, and we're adding new stuff from Refinery Drive, Beddy Rays, 𝟓𝟏𝐬𝐭 𝐀𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐮𝐞, Lady Lazarus, and Ziontheband.

8pm WST, Thursday night on 89 7FM Perth.

Oh no! Looks like we'll be restricted to broadcast airwaves tomorrow on Shades of Punk - the web stream has gone down, so we're all going to have to blow the dust off the old FM radio.

Still, it's going to be a great show with new Aussie stuff from Ellen May, Last Quokka, Arrows vs. Empires, and All Regards, plus heaps of other -punk tracks!

8pm, Thu on 89 7FM Perth.

Wait, what?! This week's show falls on Halloween? I suppose I better put some effort in, then. Lots of horror punk, some goth rock, and plenty of tenuous thematic links.

Join me on Halloween for two hours of vaguely Halloween themed punk tracks, and some vaguely punk tracks for the sake of the Halloween theme.

89 7FM Perth at 8pm.

I love creative, thematic, and self-depracating video clips for songs. Anberlin released one of my favourites of 2024 a few months back.

"Walk Alone" is from Anberlin's upcoming album, 'Vega,' available August 2nd. Pre-order the album here: https://anberlin.lnk.to/vegaDirected:- Nate YoungWrit...

23/10/2024

I'll be back on the airwaves tomorrow night with new tracks from Silverstein, Snooper, empowered anger from Amyl and The Sniffers & Lambrini Girls, and a sample of Scud's new EP.

Join me on 89 7FM Perth from 8:00pm.

I've missed two of the last three weeks of broadcasting.

I'm working on a playlist that I can release digitally, that might be of interest to fans. I'll caveat that by saying I'm a pop-punk fan at heart, with metal tendancies.

You'll get what you get - I hope you like it. Stay tuned.

Last Sunday (Oct 6th), one of the biggest and most influential names in punk rock played their final show; NOFX closed their four decade long career at Berth 46 in LA.

Tomorrow on Shades of Punk, I pay tribute to NOFX with a bunch of tracks from that final set-list and heaps of songs from albums brought to us by Fat Wreck Chords.

I'll still have time for some new Aussie stuff too, with the latest from Getting Dumber, Chasing Ghosts, and Sick Visor!

Tune in 8pm tomorrow on 89 7FM Perth.

I'm afraid there's no Shades of Punk this week. :/

It'd be fun if not doing the show was some kind of punk-inspired act of defiance, but it's actually just adulthood stealing my time. :P

Still, there's plenty of great shows throughout the week. Check out the Program Guide at 89 7FM Perth.

If you need a fix, I recommend you go see Ellen May in West Perth on Friday night. See you next week!

Oct 04, 2024 - West Perth, Australia
