“This may have been the nerdiest interview I've ever done. The Loc-Nar is a villanous creature from the 1980 movie Heavy Metal, the band members wear sweet speedsuits, we discussed Dungeons & Dragons at length, and talked about how a band can be 'chaotic evil' in alignment. I write this to contextualise what you are hearing when you listen to them – because LOC-NAR (who hail from Montreal) embody the kind of music, from progressive rock to garage rock, that first got me, and many, many others, into community radio.” - CW
