The Unquiet Grave presents:

Tonight the Unquiet Grave returns (9-11pm right here on WRIR) with a new episode: a look at the heavy metal Peel Sessions. From grind and crust bands operating out of medieval market towns to all-American rural sludge: the BBC had it—across five decades. Featuring a little bit of radio history and a lot of industrial crust, this show will broadcast live from WRIR tonight (listen at wrir.org/listen), and after that will be available at emilyrobinson.org/radio in perpetuity.

Tonight on The Unquiet Grave (9-11pm right here on WRIR): It’s 1989. The Berlin Wall is falling, the Exxon Valdez is hemorrhaging oil, Bush has assumed office, and my god, there is a lot of thrash metal coming out. This episode is a long look at what heavy music looked like that year, including briefs on death, doom, and hair, three big industrial classics, a dip into the burgeoning Seattle Sound, an Earache overview, and a world tour of killer thrash. Listen live right here or check the archive at emilyrobinson.org/radio!

The Unquiet Grave presents:

Tonight on The Unquiet Grave (9-11pm right here on WRIR) we’re exploring the sub-sub-SUBgenre of Industrial Crust, starting with some scene-setting via early crust’s flirtations with sampling and electronic influences, John Peel and the labels Earache and Peaceville exposing crust, industrial, and metal bands to the world and each other; moving on to East Anglia and the whole Deviated Instinct family; taking in a portion of one of the most underrated concept albums of all time; closing out with a couple of bands that somehow aren’t even from England. You can relisten to this and all previously aired Unquiet Grave episodes at this link.
