Exploring the legacy of ’80s college rock, the ‘Slicing Up Eyeballs’ show airs every Tuesday at 10 p.m. Eastern/7 p.m. Pacific on Strangeways Radio.

Tonight’s premiere episode of ‘Slicing Up Eyeballs’ on Strangeways Radio featured new tracks from Wire, Gang of Four, Steve Wynn, Freebass and Bernard Sumner; vintage cuts from The Chills, The House of Love and The Godfathers; plus rarities from The Cure and The Replacements.

Highlights of tonight’s episode of ‘Dark Wave’ on Sirius XM’s 1st Wave include more deep Depeche Mode album cuts, a double dose of The House of Love and a triple serving of The Smiths.

Just a quick reminder: Slicing Up Eyeballs will debut a brand-new weekly specialty show Tuesday night on Strangeways Radio, a commercial-free web outlet devoted to ‘taking alternative back.’

This week’s episode of ‘Dark Wave’ on Sirius XM’s 1st Wave features a pretty routine lineup, with notable appearances by a pair of lesser-played Depeche Mode tracks (‘Monument,’ off ‘A Broken Frame,’ and ‘Violator’-era B-side ‘Sea of Sin’) — plus the return of the always-out-of-place Puscifer.

We interrupt our regular programming for a bit of exciting news: In two weeks, Slicing Up Eyeballs will debut a new weekly specialty show on Strangeways Radio, a commercial-free web outlet devoted to ‘taking alternative back.’
