About
Infernal Overdrive is a heavy rock and roll band formed in early 2008 when Marc Schleicher (fmr. Quintaine Americana [Wikipedia, MySpace, AllMusic], Cracktorch [MySpace], Antler, Liquor Tricks [MySpace]) of Allston , Mass. started jamming with Mike Bennett (fmr. Loud Earth [Reverb Nation, Facebook]) in Red Bank. Soon they got Rich Miele (fmr. Loud Earth [Reverb Nation, Facebook]) on board playing second lead guitar. During some of their early shows, Jake Metz (Godzero [MySpace]) joined the band on bass, but he was soon replaced by Keith Schleicher.
Their sound is a combination of their classic influences such as Led Zeppelin, Blue Cheer, Free, Grand Funk, Cactus, Deep Purple and Pink Floyd and newer heavy bands like Kyuss, Nebula, Soundgarden, STP, QOTSA and Monster Magnet.
Biography
Rumors abound that somewhere in the depths of New Jersey time stands still and it is always 1977. Trapped in this interstellar time warp, making electric amageddon is Infernal Overdrive. Fronted by the mysterious, oft reckless Marc Schleicher (Cracktorch [MySpace], Quintaine Americana [Wikipedia, MySpace, AllMusic], Antler) - a Boston native transplanted in time and space to this 4th dimension - summoned by the all-powerful duo of Mike Bennett and Rich Miele of Loud Earth [Reverb Nation, Facebook]. After a treacherous search to find his long lost brother, Keith Schleicher was sucked into the vortex to fulfill his destiny on bass guitar. They journey in the last of the V8 interceptors, proving themselves worthy of the Small Stone pedigree. Forces to be reckoned with on their own, as a group their wonder team powers activate to kick into Infernal Overdrive.
Armed with their wits, New Jersey dialect and a passion for surviving the likes of the Tall Man, flying orbs, giant sharks, the Turnbull AC's and an occasional family of albino zombies, Infernal Overdrive will be coming to an area near you soon. Can you dig it?

Review by The Obelisk / Stoner Rock:
Infernal Overdrive Kick into Gear
With production by Andrew Schneider (Throttlerod, The Brought Low, Hackman) and mastering by Nick Zampiello at New Alliance East in Boston, there’s no doubt that New Jersey riff rockers Infernal Overdrive are going for that Small Stone Records sound. The four tracks that comprise their new self-titled EP fall in line with the kind of straightforward guitar-led rock the Detroit label has proffered for well over a decade now, and with a similar southern/classic ‘70s influence to New York’s The Brought Low, Infernal Overdrive seem remarkably conscious of what they’re doing sonically. More so than you might expect for a band just releasing their first EP.
The story goes that when guitarist/vocalist Marc Schleicher (ex-Cracktorch [MySpace], Antler) moved from Massachusetts to central New Jersey, he got hooked up with drummer Mike Bennett and guitarist/backing vocalist Rich Miele (both ex-Loud Earth [Reverb Nation, Facebook]). Keith Schleicher (relation assumed) was added on bass and Infernal Overdrive began rocking out early 2008. The EP was recorded over two days in February and four in April, and though that seems quick, none of the songs feels rushed or underdone. Schneider, who also shows up on extra backing vocals, makes his mark sound-wise in the tone of Schleicher and Miele’s guitars and Bennett’s snare sound, which has the same pop Schneider has become known for – not too bright, but able to cut through the mix and propel the songs forward. Some of Schleicher’s leads, as on EP closer “Motor,” feel a little too thought out, too structured where what I’d like to hear is a little bluesy ‘70s recklessness, but they get the job done nonetheless, and the vocals are never out of place.
Although the highway for which it’s named runs down through the whole East Coast, there’s no question that when Infernal Overdrive open the EP with “I-95,” they’re talking about Jersey. The song is a southern-hued guitar rocker that sets the tone well for the three tracks that follow with an ear toward rock traditionalism and, once again, like-minded Small Stone heavy-hitters Sasquatch, Dixie Witch, et al. It’s hard to argue with the approach when it works as well as it does on the speedy “The Edge,” which forgoes central Jersey’s reputation for heavy psychedelia in the style of Monster Magnet in favor of Halfway to Gone’s stripped-down take on rock. “Duel” slows down the pace somewhat but still keeps a mid?paced groove that makes use of some well?placed lead lines that start the song reminding me of Iron Maiden filtered through Nebula’s druggy haze. Only “Motor,” which devolves into an extended jam that brings the track to a total of just under 12 minutes, is longer, as the songs on Infernal Overdrive go in order from shortest to longest. Whether or not that’s on purpose on the part of the band, I don’t know – I’d imagine at least putting “Motor” last is – but I suppose it’s as good a method of organization as any.
There’s a short message from the Devil after “Motor” finishes up, and that’s the end of the EP. Infernal Overdrive are out relatively quick when you consider their first release is only 26 minutes and three of the four songs take up about 11 of it. No complaints though, as the four-piece know precisely how to get the most out of their sound and show exactly that on these tracks. It’s a hell of an investment to make with a self-released debut to hook up with the likes of Schneider and Zampiello, but Infernal Overdrive make the most of Schleicher and co.’s collected experience, and come off sounding confident and notably mature for a band who’s been together less than three years. It may not be changing the game, but Infernal Overdrive is definitely worth checking out for anyone who wants to hook into some solid and unpretentious heavy rock.
Review by Cutting Edge Rocks:
A couple years ago we reviewed a strong up-and-coming Jersey band Loud Earth [Reverb Nation, Facebook]. Well, it seems they dissolved and morphed into Infernal Overdrive. The new band is two parts Loud Earth [Reverb Nation, Facebook] (drummer Mike Bennett and guitarist/backing vocalist Rich Miele), one part Cracktorch [MySpace], Antler (guitarist/vocalist Marc Schleicher) and one part brother (bassist Keith Schleicher). Mike contacted me letting me know the band formed after Marc relocated from Boston and set up shop in Jersey. He sent along the EP for my listening pleasure. And a pleasure it is! The songs are baked in southern ‘70s hard rock with catchy riffs and plenty of power rumbling in the pipes. The info is sketchy but according the record’s liner notes, the four-song EP was recorded this year in Brooklyn, NY over five days (Feb 27, 28 & April 17, 18, 24, 25). Production was handled by Andrew Schneider (Throttlerod, The Brought Low, Hackman) with mastering by Nick Zampiello. Fans of our site will immediately make the Small Stone connection and that seems to be where the band are heading as the vibe is defiantly Detroit retro.
Take for instance “I-95” which opens the disc with a solid guitar wail and foot-stomping drum beat. Tambourine is added for flavor but the song bellows like fellow Boston-natives Roadsaw, mixing biker thunder with a Pat Travers/Leslie West riff-fest. Second track, “The Edge” is pure old school Nugent, including the repeat riff and frantic, almost MC5 delivery. Schleicher voice is ragged and ready to rock. The drums hammer and the bass drives laying down a solid bed for some sexy solo leads. “Duel” has more Fu Manchu in the groove. It’s mostly in the chorus, but the build in the verse is still very Scott Hill/Brant Bjork. The track also boasts our favorite solo - frayed, not over played and sparked with cosmic energy. “Motor” is a 13-minute stoner masterpiece. A heavy bottom end brings to mind Sabbath, Sasquatch and Mountain. The riff is clean but thick with a layered solo painting in all the little nuances - perfect for a psychedelic ride. The echo on the vocals adds to the songs dripping mysticism while the guitar is allowed to float, pierce and melt the brain. Yeah, it only four songs, but dude, sometime that’s all you need when they’re this good.
Review by Heavy Planet
I recently had a chance to hear some new material from thee guys and I'll tell you right now, this is a band to be on the look out for. They're going places. Their sound is straight up southern stoner rock. If I had to compare them, I'd say they're a bit harder version of The Brought Low. Checkout the usual social media spots (links below) to hear what I'm talking about and keep up to date with all their happenings because you'll certainly be hearing from them again.
Yingluck Shinawatra and the Pheua Thai Party get their election posters up on Phetchburi Road.
Broadly the poster means, "Stay with the rules of law that safeguard democracy. Respect the public's decisions."
However, the tactic pursued by Suthep's minority anti government protest group (who want to return Thailand to Military Rule Endorsed by Absolute Monarchy) / and the minority Democrat Party, is to disrupt the coming elections by creating a situation in as many southern constituencies as possible where there are no candidates or, at the least, no opposition candidates fielded. This would lead to one of the pre-requisites for a democratic election as defined by the Thai constitution being removed.

Elements of Elections
Prerequisites
Asia Pacific Institute of Broadcasting Development
For an election to represent the true wishes of the people it must meet certain conditions. Among the most important features of a democratic election are:
1. Diversity in political parties and candidates so that the choice before voters is real, not illusory. An election dominated by a single significant party is unlikely to generate different visions and plans for the country, let alone debate around these. Without such an exchange of ideas in the public sphere, voters will not be equipped to select parties or candidates in an informed manner. Further, a party that is elected more or less unopposed will have no real reason to listen to the people. Such a situation is contrary to the basic idea of democracy.
2. Competing political parties must have freedom to campaign in the run-up to the election. This means they must be free to hold meetings and to communicate with voters about their ideologies and proposed policies and programmes – through meetings, pamphlets, advertisements or any other legitimate means, including new information and communications technologies. Without such communication, voters will not be in a position to learn about the ideas and solutions offered by different parties and candidates, especially those who are not yet in power.
3. Rules to govern the election must not only be in place but they must be widely known and observed. A credible, respected individual or organisation (such as an election commissioner/commission) must be charged with administering the rules. Courts must have jurisdiction over both the rules and the administration of the election so that election-related complaints can be dealt with by the judicial system. The rules should include strong and effective legal procedures against electionrelated corruption and violence. Nobody should be able to dictate to voters who they should vote for. If citizens are not protected from such violations of their rights, the outcome of the election will be questionable and people will feel cheated. Members of the public who are unhappy with election results may express their dissatisfaction through protests; some may even take steps towards establishing a different kind of government. There is likely to be more public trust in the elected government if people perceive that the election was conducted in a free and fair manner.
4. Most importantly, the public must be aware of the importance of voting as well as the choices with regard to candidates and voting procedures. Voters must have the opportunity to become interested in and knowledgeable about the election through access to non-partisan information presented in a manner that is not only comprehensible but also clarifies the connection between politics and the lives of ordinary people. Without such knowledge they will be vulnerable to manipulation, if not deception, by special interests. The media have a key role to play in providing citizens with the relevant, balanced information they need to do justice to their vital role as voters.

This reminds me of my favorite scene from the Bollywood movie Three Idiots...
"First day of college, you asked me why didn't astronauts use a pencil in space?"
"If a pencil tip breaks, it'd float on zero gravity; get into the eyes, nose, instruments.
You were wrong. You cannot be right all the time."
Well if you guys have watched the movie, you'd see the same ulterior meaning. =)

Over 1,300 personnel from all three armed services, veterans and cadets made the 2019 National Armed Forces Day parade in Salisbury the largest one to date. Originally conceived as Veterans Day, the name of the event was changed in 2009 to National Armed Forces Day to celebrate the contributions of both past and present members of the British Armed Forces. Taking place on the last Saturday of June, the parade is one aspect of a whole weekend where the national lead event is hosted by a different town or city each year around the UK.
The national event was held from 28 to 30 June 2019 in Salisbury and hosted by Wiltshire Council and its council leader Baroness Scott of Bybrook OBE.
Her Royal Highness Princess Anne reviewed the parade on 29 June 2019 of more than 1,300 service personnel, cadets and veterans and took the salute on the dais in front of the Guildhall, accompanied by the Mayor of the City of Salisbury John Walsh, as the procession went by. The parade was preceded by a fly past by the Red Arrows at 10 am. The parade was led by a detachment from the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment, followed by bands and marching contingents from the three armed services, veterans and cadets and finished with the British Army units which hold the Freedom of the City of Salisbury.
The order of the procession was as follows:
Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment
Band of HM Royal Marines Portsmouth
Royal Navy drawn from ships across the Fleet
Corps of Royal Marines
King’s Royal Hussars

Coyote Tactical Support Vehicle
22 Engineer Regiment, Corps of Royal Engineers

Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster David Lidington, Defence Secretary Penny Mordaunt, senior military officers and civic dignitaries also watched the parade.
Defence Secretary, Penny Mordaunt said: “On Armed Forces Day we celebrate the exceptional contribution service personnel, regular or reservist, veterans and their families make to our security and prosperity. The Armed Forces protect us and defend us around the world and serve communities throughout our country. With more than 300 events taking place across the UK, it’s incredible to see people coming together to show their support for the Armed Forces.”
The national event provided an opportunity to welcome the troops returning from Germany to Wiltshire, as one-quarter of the British regular army will be based in the county by 2020.
The Armed Forces and Salisbury have a close and historic relationship and the national event gave the people of Salisbury the chance to thank the Armed Forces for their tireless support towards the city’s recovery following the Novichok poison attacks in 2018.
Baroness Scott of Bybrook OBE, leader of Wiltshire Council, said: “Wiltshire is the beating heart of the Armed Forces and we are extremely proud of our long association with the military. The Armed Forces Day National Event is a unique opportunity to recognise and pay tribute to the specialist military teams, the emergency services and the other organisations that managed the incident and the subsequent clean-up that has helped south Wiltshire to return to normal.”

An epic 4 day trip to Snowdonia National Park in North Wales.
We met up with Kristopher Williams one day and spent time photographing Landscapes, Waterscapes, Urbex, Ships, Beaches, Sunrises, Sunsets, Old Manors, Waterfalls, Mountains, even a church in the sea - you could say it had everything!!

This set was amongst Leads old photos that I wasn't able to upload...sorry been too lazy LOL. Anyways, he is wearing a vintage GI Joe jumpsuit here, makes him look like a mechanic or something. He seemed to be resting and relaxing after a day of hard work XD I sold the wig he is wearing and unfortunately....he needs to travel soon as well. I haven't been giving him much attention since I got him so I think he deserve to go to a better home. For sure Nika will be upset but then I would have extra funds to get her and her sisters stuff. It's been hard to get them anything lately since the msd's has been the priority.
At the Holy Trinity Cathedral, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
I have always loved and admired leaded glass as a decorative medium, and the panels in one of the doors into the Cathedral are no exception. I think I could be good at making it, given the right work space and plenty of spare glass for all the mistakes I'd make during the learning process.
I suppose the bottom two panels are clear, or at least minimally opaque, so people on one side of the door can see people approaching from the other side.
