This week we feature music from Aiming For Aurora, The Danver Patients, A Moment Without, Modern Condition, Before The Gates, Imagine The Silence, Countermeasure, Burn Fetish, Machine 22, Cosmonaught, The Harlotte Swing, Black Flood Diesel, and Emergent. Plus we debut “Pump or Dump”, where you decide if a song stays in the Local Alternative rotation. This week we feature The Necrotix.

Grand Forks rockers Old Vern stop by the Local Alternative to talk about their music, and to play some songs off their 2012 CD “Here on Purpose”

Old Vern have only been together for a few years, but they have solidified themselves as a mainstay in the local music scene. They have become a force to be reckoned with on the Battle of the Bands circuit, having won 5 battles in the last 2 years. Hear them talk about their BoTB successes, as well as making music, the stress of touring and how they deal with long distance relationships. We will also hear their 2012 CD “Here on Purpose” in its entirety not only from the CD itself, but also played live and acoustic.
