Forget what you thought you knew about Richmond’s RPG. Their new record, High Loathsome, is more of a piece of iconic Americana, punk and rock and roll. From Pink Floyd to Townes Van Zandt, the album’s influences and style reflect that of frontman Matt Conner. The band rallied friends, family and fans to help make this album on 12” vinyl via...

WatchOccultist - Hell By Our Hands
RVA’s deathcrust Occultist just released a new EP, Hell By Our Hands. They will have their demo on tape for their upcoming tour with Ghoul. Lots of bands seem to be going back to tapes these days.
