The 450th edition of the Nine Circles Playlist will be on the beach by the time this posts, neck-deep in sand with the new REZN, Jordsjø and…Bootsy Collins? Yessir, that’s how it goes when half the 9C staff are having an indescribable few days celebrating this year’s FITM. So if you see Corey, Vince, or Colin out, give them the mightiest of fist-bumps.

As I work on exponentially applying SPF3000 to my translucent old man body, the rest of the crew spit gobs of hot rock fire. To prove it how about some new Hatebreed, the blessed insanity of Uncle Acid and the Deadbeats covering Ozzy, a heaping dose of darkness courtesy of new singles from Emma Ruth Rundle and Chelsea Wolfe. And we’re throwing in some Marrow of Man to reflect the black metal rave ritual out there in Montana.

Get listening. Stay safe. See you next week.
