If you're listening to this episode right when it comes out, we're less than 24 hours away from this year's instalment of the Manitoba Loud Music Awards, happening Nov. 18 at the Park Theatre!

I sat down with event founder Dag Aymont and fellow organizing team member Mike Dearman (of the band Ramskull) to talk about the fan-driven celebration of all things local metal/punk/hardcore/rock/etc.

We get into the awards’ history, this year’s event (feat. headliners Econoline Crush), and much more! Along with the chat, there are songs by artists who are performing at the event sprinkled throughout the episode, including Econoline Crush, Book of Ghosts, Northern Royals, and Ash & the Arsonists.

This episode brought to you by our pals at Devine Shirt Company.
