Want something fun to do on March 1st? Well, of course you do.
Here’s all you need to do. Listen to The Spacebar this Monday from 7-8pm and you’ll have the chance to win a pair of tickets for LazerCrunk. What is LazerCrunk? Well it’s a monthly showcase of juke, dubstep, future garage, and bass music at the Brillobox.
This year’s Massive Music Weekend was certainly of epic proportions. We ended the festivities with an hour of Aztec Moon Cult in the Style of Oscar Wilde. If you happened to miss out on this magnificent piece of auditory art brought to you by the staff at WRCT, fear not! You can check it out on our SoundCloud
The Black Sabbath reunion has become not much of a reunion due to drummer Bill Ward pulling out because of problems with the contract he was offered. Not sure if I’m going to care about the new album or tour anymore. Can they write new songs and still capture the heavy swing that was so important without their drummer?
This is classic Black Sabbath, which no reunion can capture — especially without Bill Ward on drums:
