“I came from people with machine grease on their hands. Dirt under their nails. The Bible by their bedsides. Cornmeal and buttermilk. People who need a porch to think, a red dirt row to get lost in, a revival to hunger for. But there are things that even a long, soft drawl can’t cover up. There are things you keep from even yourself.

In music, there are no rules. You make your own language. You can be both the Southern rock outlier and the twangy gospel conduit. You can be both the cherubic, honey-tongued innocent and the ardent punk. To get here—to find my lion heart—I had to become them all.”

Love Like Blood: Weekend Playlist By Unmaker

|

Topics: , , , , , , ,

Every Friday night, RVA Mag drops a hell of a playlist curated by influential artists, musicians, and institutions.

This week’s installment is brought to us by Unmaker, the up-and-coming local goth-metal outfit. They just released their debut album, Firmament, back in October on Seeing Red Records, and if you dig this playlist, which is loaded with dark and menacing postpunk, goth, and metal ragers from the past several decades, you’ll certainly want to pick that album up. Until then, spend a snowy weekend haunting shadowy rooms to this ominous soundtrack.

Jam on, Virginia.

To The Core: Weekend Playlist by Ace Stallings

Every Friday night, RVA Mag drops one scorcher of a playlist curated by influential artists, musicians, and institutions.

This week’s offering is presented by the illustrious Ace Stallings, who made his name in Richmond as the singer for local hardcore mainstays Break Away. He does quite a bit more than that, though, not only contributing vocals to local newcomers Neuromancer but booking a ton of excellent hardcore shows around town and becoming an author with the release last year of his first short story collection, Mourning Songs. His playlist is filled with ragers from all genres, hardcore to hip hop, house to glam metal, and everything in between.

Virginia, it’s time to dance.

Lust For Destruction: Weekend Playlist by Vinyl Conflict’s Bobby Egger

Topics: , , , , , , , ,

Every Friday night, RVA Mag drops one scorcher of a playlist curated by influential artists, musicians, and institutions. This time around, our playlist comes from a man who should need no introduction for the record-buying faithful of Central Virginia: Bobby Egger, the proprietor of Vinyl Conflict. Located in Oregon Hill, Richmond’s leading punk rock emporium also releases vinyl and cassettes by top local artists, from metallic hardcore scorchers Left Cross to hip hop legend Nickelus F.

This might be a cold and dreary weekend, but Egger’s playlist is guaranteed to heat you up; when you listen to it, you definitely won’t want to sit still.

Start the pit, Virginia.
