The New Band Smell - Fat Actress
It's time to ramp it up to 11 again on ATL with another nice and noisy new band smell with Carrie Davenport. Seeing as it's nearly halloween, it's the perfect time to don the necro face paint, carve some pumpkins and make it metal! ************************************ Stand With Heretics - Gu...
The Making of...Mental Deficiency
They play a Hallowe'en special (at Auntie Annies on Wed 31st) but, it you're Mental Deficiency, every day is a bit Hallowe'en. Constantly costumed, always unpredictable and reliably odd, this particular five piece don't need a calendar to tell them it's time to act the maverick. Regardless, the ...

The Making Of....The Alice Kona Band
Picking which track we open the show with each Monday is a big deal. It has to be something punchy and instant to reel listeners in, convince floating voters and the initiated that Across the Line is worth sticking with and that Northern Irish music is engaging enough to justify a chunk of their...
