This show features the third installment of Notes from Behind the Iron Curtain with a focus on Croatia. Beri Sabolic, who grew up as a punk in Croatia, hosted this hour and a half feature beginning with Paraf. Beri's credentials include hosting a punk radio show in Croatia called "Ispod zemlje" which means "Under the Ground". Beri also did a zine and record label called "Ill in the Head" which goes without saying that Beri is also a big record collector.

His band mate, Travis, from Terminal Licks programmed the first hour of bands with Vassil and bands he liked.

Teenage Head are playing their 40th anniversary show as a band on Saturday at the Phoenix. We pulled together a set of the artists making up this bill which will be backed by Sid`s Kids. We played a song from Teenage Head's performance at Heatwave becuase I was just reading a book about John Brower's experience with organizing Canada's first punk festival.

ARSON - Satori (CIUT)

This week Canada has declared war on ISIS and will begin air strikes in Syria. Day 6 debated the declaration that this a moral war. The Sunday Edition breaks down the bigger picture of the politics of fear behind the war. These were some os the opinions I was hearing this week that lead me to program a set about war and Harper`s culture of fear.

SOLUNSKI FRONT - Hirosima (No Profit)
WAR EMBLEM - Hard to Swallow (Narshardaa)
GOMS - Mad World (Slow Death)

GROSS - There Is So Much Celebration (Self-Released)

This week's demo feature is a new band from, Newfoundland called Animal Crimes. Their recent review in MRR caught my eye enough to have me searching for this recording which has a Vacant State feel in that SSD meets DYS sort of way. We ran out of time so the last song got cut but this should give you an idea of what you are missing. 

ANIMAL CRIMES - Criminal Realm
ANIMAL CRIMES - Dearnged Mental State
ANIMAL CRIMES - Fear
ANIMAL CRIMES - Lords of the Land

MRR Review - Concete Asylum "Social Anxiety" ep

The first ep of Concrete Asylum's gets reviewed in the February issue of MRR (#369). Local label Bad Vibrations releases this recoridng which you can find at http://concreteasylum.bandcamp.com/.
