From underground gems to headline-worthy drops It's New Music Friday for 1-10-25!

Welcome to another product review video! Keefy takes on the KittiePIG beer from  @kittiechannel  and We Are Pigs/Esjay Jones! "The worlds first non-alcoholic beer brand, brewed specifically for the Alternative and Heavy Music Culture!” Keefy checks out the brand, explains the flavor profile and tasting notes, and then cracks a can open, pours a glass, and gives you his unfiltered opinion. In short - it's tasty, non-alcoholic, and Vegan! (does contain barley)

Happy New Year 2025! Thanks for supporting us for another year!

In this episode, Ragin Rosie interviews Rock band Any Given Sin at Louder Than Life 2024! Their debut new album "War Within" is out now, which preceded their new cover of Cutting Crew's 1980s song "I Just Died In Your Arms Tonight!" We learned about the formation of the band, their influences, their favorite and least favorite shows, their love of nu metal, and if they are "Dad Rock" and if that is a bad thing or, not!

GWAR had a monster year in 2024, no pun intended! They toured relentlessly, put out a killer classic album reissue for "Hell-O," and played festivals such as Knotfest and Riot Fest! Our own Justice Petersen interviewed Jizmak Da Gusha at Riot Fest and they talked about their 2024 recap, whether or not GWAR is a heavy metal band or not, and a preview of their 40th anniversary plans for 2024!
