Radio K Announces Stuck on AM VII

The great people at Radio K are back with the seventh instalment of their Stuck on AM series, with a slightly new twist.  Instead of the usual CD, the station is releasing the effort as a tape and a download.  The tape will feature in studio performances from some of the very best bands from our local music scene that seems to be getting better by the day.  I won’t go through all of the bands that are on the tape that you should already know and love, but it is safe to say there are some amazing tracks on the record (and if you don’t know “Wake Up” by Dante and the Lobster, it is worth it just for that).  The second part is a download for another 24 tracks from national bands that the station has done a great job bringing to our local airways.  Highlights include tracks from grossly underrated bands like Lower Dens, Besnard Lakes, Holy Fuck and A Sunny Day in Glasgow.  The package will be available on Record Store Day at the Electric Fetus, so if you aren’t already celebrating this sacred National Holiday (I hear there is some other festival the nextweekend?  Well, this is better), now you have another  solid reason to get out on April 16th and be part of the local scene.  Both the tapes and downloads will be completely free, so get them while you can.
