Iowa Basement Tapes #374 11-13-2025

Night Listeners-

I love this November heatwave that we are having here in Des Moines. We got show filled new and "new to me" including Keith Rich of Druid's personal archives. We got KGB, Radio Moscow, Holy Vestige (new Bo Becker project), some dungeon synth project called Plague Relic. I also found a weird ska band called An Afternoon Snatching which sounds like its from 15 years ago.
