Widge’s Sonic Emporium on Louder Than War Radio – 9 September 2023

Episode 13
“We Scream in Cathedrals”

Welcome. Here are what passes for show notes. The reason the playlist is in the format you find it is because I really need a life. The very overwrought explanation can be found here.

Format is:
Artist/Band Name – “Song Name” – Album Name – (Band’s/Artist’s Country of Origin, Year of Song’s Original Release)

Now with Bandcamp links (where available), and if they’re not, I include Amazon links.

OFFS. In another example of my stupid mouth and my recalcitrant brain working together in a way that no meds have been able to help with yet: the artist’s name is Curumin.  In the show, I said “Curcumin,” which is a chemical in turmeric. I’m sure Curumin probably has similar anti-inflammatory properties but I can’t vouch for it. Mea culpa to Curumin.
