The Unquiet Grave presents:

The Unquiet Grave Episode 67: The Only Good Punk (A History of Peaceville Records)

Tonight, 9-11pm right here on WRIR: a close look at iconic label Peaceville Records, from the earliest cassette demos released from founder Paul “Hammy” Halmshaw’s bedroom and most of the first 10 “VILE” catalog numbers to the gothic, death-doom acts that became their enduring core, hitting up several classic compilations released on the label as well as releases from subsidiaries Deaf and Dreamtime—and, of course, Darkthrone—on the way.

The music while I’m talking in this episode is from “Kathaarian Life Code” by Darkthrone.

Thanks for listening and see you next week with an all new episode!
