PLAYLIST: Thursday, March 10th, 2011

This week brought new music from Menschdefekt and Dark Castle, along with a nod to Alice in Chains' original bassist, Mike Starr, who was found dead on March 8th. Although Alice in Chains might seem like an odd band to be paid a tribute on "Out ov the Coffin," I always appreciated the dark, sickly quality of some of their earlier work, and it actually caused me to seek more music like that -- which caused me to become ever more interested in gothic rock. Also, being a bass player, I liked Mike Starr's style, and I felt that his dismissal from the band coincided (at the very least) with the end of their glory days.

Unfortunately, this particular episode is available as neither a stream or a podcast. There was a server error that night, which caused a failure in the archiving system. So, the stream that you'll hear at wrvu.org right now is the show from March 3rd, and having no stream from which to derive the podcast, there is nothing to post -- unless one of you fine people recorded it and wants to send it over. Let me know, if so...

Otherwise, here's what was played...
