SHE'S GONE TO LIVE IN...MEMORY'S GARDEN!

Don't miss classic doom/stoner/psych metallers Trouble, this Wednesday at Lee's Palace. The kings of the Chicago metal scene are reunited and coming to Toronto!

Heaven and Hell, Megadeth, & Down, Sonic Attacks got you covered!

Sing me a song, you're a singer

Do me a wrong, you're a bringer of evil

The Devil is never a maker

The less that you give, you're a taker

So it's on and on and on, it's Heaven and Hell, oh well

The lover of life's not a sinner

The ending is just a beginner

The closer you get to the meaning

The sooner you'll know that you're dreaming

So it's on and on and on, oh it's on and on and on

It goes on and on and on, Heaven and Hell

Listen this Thursday as we get set for one of the biggest metal concerts of the year, Black Sabbath with Ronnie James Dio singing! And later that night the concert itself at the ACC. Don't you dare miss either show...

FAREWELL ADAM

The good people always leave too soon, and CHRY had to say goodbye to Program Coordinator Adam Fox this week, so we sent him back to Windsor to bigger and better things with Gotta Keep Movin' by the MC5. Good choice Adam, and good luck, I hope we meet again.

DEREK "JETHRO" TULLY!!!

It's been great having Derek Tully on the show the past few weeks, and I hope that comes across to our listeners as well. How no one else on the planet gave him the nickname "Jethro" with a last name like Tully until now I'll never know, but that's what I'm here for.
Derek will be looking to bring our listeners some great interviews over the coming weeks, so keep your ears tuned, and listen to CHRY at other times and you may just hear Derek spreading some more metal all over the airwaves!

We Bring the Rock, We Bring the Metal!

Sonic Attack is your weekly dose of heavy metal madness, spanning the earliest roots of the genre to the latest new music. You'll also hear progressive and psychedelic rock mixed in, and maybe even the occasional jazz or hip-hop song, but mostly you'll just hear an ear-splitting splitting metallic assault and a blaze of guitar solos. That's why your humble host Robin Zinger refers to it as a "mostly metal" show.

I'm always looking for new music to play, especially independent and Canadian stuff, so please send those cds the old fashioned way to the CHRY music department at:

CHRY 105.5FM
Room 413, Student Centre
York University
Toronto, ON
M3J 1P3

PROCEED THE WEEDIAN NAZARETH!!!

Last week we did one of those crazy things you can only do on college radio, as we played Sleep's Dopesmoker in it's entirety!!! That meant 63 minutes straight of classic and totally commercial-free doom/stoner rock, and the longest song I've ever played or heard in my life. Go google the lyrics, trust me, and you'll see why it was originally called Jerusalem, and read the story of the record label troubles too.

The closest thing I ever heard to that is when Q107 played Jethro Tull's Thick As A Brick all the way through as me and my brother drove home from downtown Toronto, although that song is only a measly 45 minutes long.

Just goes to show you never know what you're going to get when you enter the Sonic Attack, so be listening this Thursday at 1pm eastern time, and online at chry.fm. CHEERS!

Little known fact: Sleep played with the Hawkwind related Space Ritual 1994! No wonder I like them.

This coming Thursday Dec. 14th, we'll have an interview with Danko Jones, hot on the heels of his final tour date this past Tuesday at the Mod Club in Toronto, where he was joined onstage for a special encore with John Garcia of the legendary stoner rock group KYUSS!!!

Listen this Thursday as we welcome Adam, CHRY's new Program Coordinator, with a tribute to Detroit's musical legacy! (Adam's coming to us from the Windsor/Detroit area)
