“Making life livable since 1988.” – Phil “Phildo” Owen

ReGen was lucky enough to catch one of the few shows on the Skatenigs/CHANT tour, one of what according to CHANT’s Bradley Bills was the last of only five shows on the tour… a tour celebrating Skatenigs’ thirtieth anniversary as a band and CHANT’s fifteenth anniversary of performing live. [..]

Ram’s Head Live, Baltimore, MD – 04/23/2018
 

It has been said that Al Jourgensen writes his best material when a Republican is office, providing him a focus for his anti-right wing sociopolitical leanings to manifest into a hard hitting onslaught of industrialized metal. The overwhelmingly positive responses to MINISTRY’s latest album – AmeriKKKant [..]

ReGen returned to the Riot Room to catch Grendel’s Severed Nations Tour, along with Evil Kunst, Peter Turns Pirate, and Ghostfeeder. The show started a little late as it had been underestimated the amount of time it would take to drive from Denver, CO to Kansas City, MO; anyone who has made that drive can sympathize as it is probably one of the most boring drives in the United States.

Rock & Roll Hotel, Washington, DC – 04-19-2018
 

The line stretched around the block for IAMX’s first U.S. show of the Alive in New Light Tour, hot on the heels of the band’s latest release. A mixture of longtime loyalists and curious newbies eagerly mingled while waiting to be let in from the cold. Washington, DC’s Rock & Roll Hotel is a perfect venue to host IAMX [..]
