Philadelphia definitely has one of the awesomest music scenes going on right now and is the place I probably feel the greatest kinship towards. So I am totally honored and happy to have Radio Shock be a part of some Philly-based musical documentation.
ON THE "RADIO":
I recently traveled down there on the New Jersey Transit to SEPTA train for a live performance on Zradio (http://www.zobnoba.com), quite likely the finest internet radio program in the country. Seriously, these cats somehow find more underground, noise-punk-garage-spazz music than you could ever have imagined existed, and they play bands about a year before you start hearing about them everywhere else. Radio Shock performed a set at the Zradio compound on April 13th, which can be found in episode 207.

IN PRINT:
This has been out for a while but I've neglected to mention it until now: "Everyone Is Awesome All The Time." It's a silk-screened mini-zine based on photos of some of the hottest east-coast party-noise acts playing in Philly and the surrounding area. Radio Shock also appears and I could not be more thrilled with the company I'm keeping. This is created by Mark Price and you can get a copy at http://markpriceisafactory.com/details.html
Also features brothers-in-arms: Cars Will Burn, Mugu Guymen, Caustic Castle, Mincemeat or Tenspeed, Drums Like Machine Guns, AIDS Wolf, Kyle Mabson, more!
