Last week I said the machine was live. That was only technically true. This week it’s actually done — galleries fixed, bugs dead, and I’m entirely too proud of it to shut up about.

An emergency pharmacy run after eight o’clock at the local Dollar General reveals a post-apocalyptic fashion show featuring local residents wearing industrial-strength Hefty bags.

A deep dive into Smackdaddy’s Gourmet Grub, the Chippewa Valley food truck redefining street eats with world-class comfort food and permanent patio residency at The Brewing Projekt.

The website rebuild is officially live and the core bugs are squashed. To celebrate, we are launching a terrifying new chronicle series dedicated to questionable culinary creations and kitchen alchemy.

We sat down with Morningstar frontwoman Amber Swenor for an unfiltered conversation about their explosive new single “Free,” hitting the stage at Rock Fest 2025, and Amber’s new book Unleashed. As always, no edits, just real talk.

A couple of weeks ago, I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Brian Klein from Dusk of Grey to talk about his brand-new album, In The End—and let me tell you, it was an incredible conversation you won’t want to miss! Below, you’ll find the raw, unedited, and unprocessed interview—no filters, just a … Read more

The headlights are blinding, the carbines are leveled, and the first major arc of the Driftless resistance has hit the end of the line. Station Zero is stepping away from the mic for a brief maintenance cycle—here is when the signal cuts back through the static for Book Two.

The back door of the Checker Marathon swung open. Static, the German Shepherd, didn’t jump out. Two Aegis contractors stepped into the blinding spotlight, their weapons already raised and leveled at Cronauer’s chest. Cronauer froze, his boots planted in the mud, the engine of the GS ticking in the white glare. He slowly turned his head, his eyes locking onto Audrey behind him as the realization struck like a physical punch to the throat. The coordinates hadn’t been found. They had been given.

“We change the scale,” Cronauer said, his voice dropping into the deep, authoritative broadcast resonance he’d spent thirty years anchoring. “Joy Luebke and Eli are building a massive structural mast on Nottingham Ridge right now. If you stay here, you save one room until they lock your cage. If you come with me, we broadcast your medical logs, your triage data, and your pharmaceutical protocols to every ham operator and survivor from La Crosse to Madison. You can be a prisoner, or you can heal the whole valley from the sky.”

The plastic syringe she had been holding slipped from her numb fingers, hitting the floorboards with a dull, hollow click. Audrey just stared at him, her face completely drained of color, looking at a man who was supposed to be a ghost thousands of miles away. In the tight, amber-lit alcove of a leaking riverside shelter, the weight of three decades and the raw trauma of what they had lost before the sky went dark came crashing back into the frequency.

A gritty blend of blues, post-punk, and gothic soul — The Holy Knives deliver two releases that hit hard, haunt deep, and somehow make housecleaning an emotional experience. This is alt-blues for the modern age, and it’s absolutely worth the spin.

Two albums, ten years apart — yet completely intertwined. Heads and Tails from Basement Alchemy are a masterclass in cinematic indie rock evolution, and I didn’t even know what I was ordering when I bought them.

Imagine if you will a world where Heavy Metal was the driving force not just behind music but the very economy. If you can’t imagine that for one your imagination is lame but it’s already been imagined for you.Brendon Small envisioned this in his animated masterpiece Metalocalypse. In the show a band called Dethklok essentially … Read more
