This show breaks new grounds with bands from three new cities: Shadrack Chameleon from Humboldt, Zini from Lamoni (yes you read correctly) and No Coast Criminals from Independence.

Tonight I bring you some tracks from the All Iowa Noise Insurgency cassette compilation. These are the more mellow/drone pieces from Seezureface and Under Escape from the Black Hole. I also share tunes from the now defunct Bongrider and Gloaming, two Iowa City doom projects. Well Gloaming isn't doom, but it fits right in.
