Alchemy mixes up a punk lineup

Posted by Stephen Centanni | Mar 25, 2015 | Music Briefs | 0 |

Alchemy Tavern is filling their walls with underground rock from both ends of the state. While Muscle Shoals is known for more organic forms of music, Random Conflict is proving that this Alabama music capital has a dark side. For more than two decades, the hardcore punk band has been cutting a path of rock ‘n’ roll fury across the Southeast and beyond. Their neck-breaking riffs lay the foundation for catchy punk anthems that are not for the faint of heart.
Random Conflict
Mobile punkers Dirty Mikes have been absent from the scene for a little while. This show will mark the end of the local underground powerhouse’s hibernation and a batch of songs pulled straight from Carcosa. The Dirty Mikes keep it nice (and dirty) with classic punk overtones and quality vocal work.

Post Mortem Delirium is an Azalea City band that has earned street cred with a horror punk style embracing a metal edge. Currently, the band is in the midst of an IndieGoGo campaign to raise funds to record and press their first studio album.


Dirty Mikes, Post Mortem Delirium, Random Conflict
Date: Friday, March 27, 9 p.m.
Venue: Alchemy Tavern, 7 S. Joachim St., www.alchemytavernmobile.com
Tickets: Call 441-7741 for more info

About The Author

Stephen Centanni

With the exception of two years spent at Auburn University, Steve Centanni has spent his life in Mobile County while focusing on his two passions: music and the written word. As soon as he was issued his driver’s license, Centanni began to explore the local music scene in the early ‘90s. He filled his weekend with visits classic local venues such as the Four Strong Winds Coffee House, Vincent Van Go-Go’s and Culture Shock, all of which welcomed those who had yet to reach 18. After high school, Centanni traded Mobile for Auburn to complete his B.A. in English with an emphasis on general writing. While at Auburn, he had the honor of studying under the Pulitzer-winning poet Natasha Trethewey, who served as the nation’s Poet Laureate in 2012 and 2014. After receiving his diploma, Centanni quickly moved back to Mobile and completed the University of South Alabama’s graduate program with a M.Ed. Eventually, he was tapped by the nationally distributed Volume Entertainment Magazine to serve as the magazine’s managing editor/senior writer. His time with Volume allowed him to exercise his love for both music and writing. As Volume began to fade, Lagniappe recruited Centanni as their Music Writer and later their Music Editor, where he has remained for a little over a decade. As far as his involvement in the local music scene, Centanni organized Cess Fest at the Langan Park, which was a mini-festival focused on original local music in a time when original local music was veritably taboo in Downtown Mobile. For a short time, he brought original music to Downtown Mobile as the in-house promoter for the now deceased venue Cell Block. He managed local underground powerhouse Fry Cook, until the members parted ways. Centanni has lent his bass to bands such as Keychain Pistol and The F’n A-Holes, and he toured nationally as a member of Abstract Artimus & the Torture Children. Currently, he provides vocals for the garage blues rock outfit Johnny No. Ultimately, Centanni’s experience in the local music scene as both a participant and an observer has allowed him to witness the ever-changing persona of Mobile’s enigmatic music scene, which continues to leave him with more questions than answers.
