Hellbound Glory - Lost Cause, Part 2

Opening up to an arena crowd is going to be a huge change of pace for Hellbound Glory, but one in which they will be able to build a huge new fan base. We are damn stoked to be able to do as much as we can to help promote the tour as Hellbound Glory is a huge part of Rusty Knuckles Music.

For any Kid Rock fans that haven't got a clue who these Real Country Music playin' fellas are, why not dive into some of the tracks below and learn all about them. Hellbound Glory has been killing it on stage after stage for quite a few years now and it's their time to take it to a whole other level.

Downloaded, The Feature Film About Napster To Premiere At SXSW 2013

"In 1998 Shawn Fanning, a teenage hacker and programmer, created the code that would become the basis for all peer-to-peer file sharing. In 1999, Fanning and his business partner, fellow teenager Sean Parker, launched the file-sharing service Napster. And what had begun as a largely unknown underground distribution medium erupted into a full-blown global revolution.

Downloaded explores this revolution from its genesis to its peak, and explains Napster's downfall. 'It's about the music and the bands, the fans and the moguls, and the brilliant young minds that ignited the biggest youth revolt since Alan Freed hit the radio,' says director Alex Winter."

Outlaw Snowdown, Featuring Fifth On The Floor And Shooter Jennings

Micro festivals have been popping up all over the map and one of the great elements of these gatherings is that raw talent gets to intersect with larger audiences. Big tours and being able to play large festivals, are much harder to be a part of due to logistics and most of all, the connections you have. If ya want to get noticed, tour your asses off and also seek out the festivals happening all around the country catering to niche audiences. Consider yourself a gold miner and start panning, as its not going to be handed to ya!


Check out all that is the Outlaw Snowdown

"The Outlaw Snowdown is more than a music festival… it’s a high-country congregation of  folks lookin’ to have a good time; a play-hard weekend for the work-hard set.

With a line-up of artists that run the gamut from Red Dirt and Cowpunk to Americana and  Outlaw, the one thing each act has in common is a kick-ass, live country show.

The main stage, featuring Shooter Jennings, Micky and the Motorcars, Whitey Morgan & the 78′s, Lydia Loveless, Fifth on the Floor, Chad Sullins and the Last Call Coalition, Caitlin Cannon + the Artillery and Brooks-i will be situated in a heated tent in the athletic field on Hermosa Street (across from Town Park) in downtown Pagosa.

Ride Wolf Creek by day and howl at the moon by night. The Outlaw Snowdown… big fun in a small (ski)town! Feb. 8 & 9, 2013!"

DIY Radio, Open Source Communication For The Masses

Should light, sound and air cost anything? Do they not inhabit all that is around us on the planet earth? Surely they do. Why shouldn't communications across the airwaves, be accessible to anyone? I and many others, feel as if they should be, but major corporations with paid advertising, tend to think property of the airwaves belongs to them.

Ever wonder why terrestrial radio sucks so bad, except for the patch work of college stations all over the country? Playlists are created, then become syndicated to groups of stations, beholden to the same corporate share holders. These vanilla stations rely on all the elements working together to never provoke or ask questions. With advertising dollars building the walls and playlists, there is no true voice, nor chance of music outside of the "safe" realm being heard.

While recently working on a project with a vendor of ours, we heard the same loop three times in under four hours, from the local top 40 station. The music being played was not our forté, but I could understand why someone would dig the melodies for the casual listener. It was pure candy and devoid of any filling. The music had the depth of a water puddle, but it served a purpose, to entertain.

Having a voice and being an individual is something everyone should strive for. Dare to be different and dare to break new ground. Copying what everyone else does, surely doesn't make for a great story and ultimately it shows lack of vision. We applaud folks such as Stephen Dunifer, for fighting the good fight and creating a voice free of constraint.

Free Radio Berkeley a community based FM station, started in 1993 by Stephen Dunifer

How To Make a Radio Station from Free Radio on Vimeo.


a brief history of Free Radio Berkeley from seth gadsden on Vimeo.


"Founded on April 11, 1993 as a Free Speech voice challenging the regulatory structure and power of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Free Radio Berkeley has been engaged in an ongoing legal battle with the FCC. Until it was silenced by a court injunction in June 1998, Free Radio Berkeley was broadcasting 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at 104.1 FM with 50 watts of power as the alternative voice for the greater Berkeley/Oakland area. The original Free Speech mission to provide community news, discussions and interviews, information, a wide range of music, and more has now been taken up by Berkeley Liberation Radio.

Free Radio Berkeley was instrumental in helping to to create an ever growing micropower broadcasting movement to liberate the airwaves and break the corporate broadcast media's stranglehold on the free flow of news, information, ideas, cultural and artistic creativity. This movement, by creating an ungovernable situation for the FCC, forced this regulatory body to establish a very limited low power FM broadcast service (LPFM). Viewed by many within the micropower community as a form of damage control and a divide and conquer strategy, this LPFM service only allows the establishment of low power stations in rural communities due to overly stringent channel spacing requirements. Even given the limited nature of LPFM it was immediately opposed by both the National Association of Broadcasters and National Public Radio. As a result of intense lobbying efforts by both these organizations Congress passed a bill that severely curtailed an already limited service. The National Lawyers Guild Committee on Democratic Communications responded to the initial LPFM rule making proceedings and is currently assisting with the LPFM application process.

Following the example of Free Radio Berkeley, hundreds of micropower broadcast stations have taken to the air across the United States and in other countries as well. Current FCC regulations mandate a minimum broadcast power of 100 watts for non-LPFM stations and require such a high cost of entry so that only the rich and well endowed can have a voice. Micropower broadcasting is helping to restore grassroots democracy, bringing back the concept of open and free civic discourse among all citizens. Further, it is a direct challenge to a broadcast system based entirely on wealth. A micropower FM broadcast station with a coverage radius of 12-15 miles can be put on the air for a cost ranging from $1000-$2000. An affordable amount for any community desiring to have a voice. Most of our transmitters can operate directly from car batteries, thereby allowing the setting up of portable stations operating at strike lines, rallies, demonstrations, community events and fairs, and festivals. Drive-by radio!

Free Radio Berkeley has two somewhat distinct entities - Free Radio Berkeley 104.1 FM, a silenced broadcast station that was operating with 100 volunteer programmers, and - Free Radio Berkeley IRATE (International Radio Action Training, Education), which provides transmitter kits, technical support and training and is involved in national and international outreach and organizing efforts. Our transmitters and other related equipment are being used by popular liberation struggle movements in a number of countries.

On this site you will find information on Free Radio Berkeley. Our web storefront is also available offering the latest in micropower broadcasting kits, accessories, complete station packages, audio equipment and antennas. Also, check out the Micropower Broadcasting section containing information and links to help you start your own community micropower radio station."

Corrections House, New Super Group To Know About

New project called Corrections House, featuring members of EyeHateGod, Nachmystium, Yakuza and Neurosis

Just heard about this project from a friend and then got hooked instantly. With the industrial and ambient sounds, my first thought was thinking back on Max Cavalera's side project called Nailbomb. The sound and imagery is dark and damn interesting, stoked to see these guys live in a week or so. Damn this is different and oh so good.

"Corrections House is a metal supergroup featuring Scott Kelly (Neurosis), Mike IX Williams (Eyehategod), Sanford Parker (Nachtmystium), and Bruce Lamont (Yakuza/Bloodiest). Here's the first track they're sharing, "Hoax the System", which will be released on a limited 7" on Parker and Lamont's War Crime Recordings label, backed by the track "Grin With a Purpose"."

Hellbound Glory Featured On NBC For Kid Rock Tour

"NEW YORK, NY — HELLBOUND GLORY has released the first chapter in the exclusive "LOST CAUSE" interview video series to the band's social networks and outlets. 

The video collection, shot in New York City in late 2012, features prodigious front man, Leroy Virgil, discussing an array of topics including his beginnings, influences, and the origination of the band's signature sound. 

Director Derec Dunn of Demon Fox Creative has this to say; "The sincerity of Leroy's character is what makes his music so genuine. I found myself personally invested in this force the second the cameras started rolling. He's a true musician, a star, on the razor's edge of something HUGE."

The first chapter is live and may be streamed or embedded via the following link: http://youtu.be/RU3oUgCAN7I or on the band's official YouTube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/hellboundgloryvideo

Subsequent chapters are scheduled for release in the weeks leading up to the first date of the upcoming Kid Rock Rebel Soul Tour on February 2, for which Hellbound Glory has been tapped for support along with Buckcherry. 

Featured locations of the "LOST CAUSE" series include the legendary Indian Larry Motorcycle Garage in Brooklyn New York."
