Once again it’s time for some new additions to your Geek Music play list. This week we finally catch up with three artists that we’ve been talking about and even playing on the show but haven’t had a chance to actually sit down and interview before now; Geek folk-rocker John Anealio, Ultraklystron, one of the godfathers of Northwest nerdcore and nerdcore group Death*Star who celebrated the release of their first full length album just this Saturday.
