Now for the surprise I was previously mentioning – I’m going to have a contest here at Radio KRUD to round out ROCKTOBER and see how creative you can be. I want from you pictures, sounds, videos, whatever you have showing your prowess on the air-guitar! Best if it’s humorous or artistic. Dress up in [...]
Read more →Come on. Don’t tell me you weren’t expecting a Halloween post. Well, I’ll start off this cliched post with a cover of a cliched Halloween song. It’s the Misfits doing a live version of the “Monster Mash”! Gotta love it, a punk version of a old-school novelty song from the 60′s. And even if this [...]
Read more →C’mon, people, only 151 149 more people as of this writing to visit the site until we’ve broken 3000 people for the month of ROCKTOBER.

Read more →So how about that lunar eclipse we had the other day? I’ve been on a Pink Floyd kick recently, so here’s a copy of “Dark Side Of The Moon” compiled from songs by four different groups – Easy Star All-Stars, Argentinian-based group UMMAGUMMA (which I’d say has the best site-design I’ve seen of all the [...]
Read more →Alex of The Desert Fathers Into crazy, heavy-hitting experimental rock? Then you’ll dig The Desert Fathers.

Read more →Rob Crow & Zach Smith Pinback is the brainchild of the band’s key members, Armistead “Zach” Burwell Smith IV and Rob Crow, who have developed some of the best composed indie rock to date.

Read more →In keeping with this blog’s Rocktober theme, I’ve chosen a song that’s gonna blow you away. Prepare your ears for “Liberty Bell” by The Gathering, a gothic metal band from Holland that have been together since about 1990. “Liberty Bell” is a track from How to Measure a Planet?, their fifth major release. It’s a [...]
Read more →The first item up today is very strange indeed, but very funny and worth a listen. It’s from Six Feet Under’s album Graveyard Classics, which is filled with death metal covers of songs that were influential to the heavy metal genre. Included is a cover of Jimi Hendrix’s “Purple Haze”. Yes, a death metal cover [...]
Read more →Klayton (a.k.a. Celldweller) I was introduced to Celldweller by a friend of mine who idolizes the man. The first song I ever heard by him was “Stay With Me (Unlikely)” and I was completely blown away. It was like nothing I had ever heard before.
