The Broken Cassette Player

By: Shred (Edward Jacobs)
  • Summary

  • It's a new music show (mostly) hosted by 20-year WBCN veteran dj Shred. We believe we need to keep moving forward with what we listen to and want to share our musical findings with as many folks as we possibly can, because we feel the bands we play should be more widely heard like it used to happen when a band was giving airplay on the local radio station. I come from that world and think we need to continue to push it for a bigger audience to enjoy and give these bands a lifeblood. Email us at teamshred@comcast.net for feedback. Thanks!

    You'd think folks might listen to a podcast that 20-year WBCN radio vet Shred does, but you'd be mistaken. Facebook culture cares not. They go about their business, sometimes post little quips, but far too busy with the business that is life to look outside it. All good, we are here to entertain and do so well. We have 5 amazing tunes for you to add to your list this week: Badflower, The Rockyts, Coheed & Cambria, Honestav and Sunday 1994 all have tunes you should pay attention to. 19:23 of rollicking fun listening time.
