::cough:: ::cough:: 87.7 FM ::cough::…read more I have a love/hate relationship with this station. It might be the best programmed non-college urban formatted station in Boston ever. Generally the format is the more commercial sounding which will drive you nuts. There's only so much Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj and Rick Ross one can take. I hate Rick Ross btw. At any rate, Boston hiphop alumni Edo G hosts a dope sunday show that focuses on indy/rootsy hiphop. Another Boston hiphop alum Jeff 2X (formerly Def Jeff from Almighty RSO/Made Men/Hangmen 3) is also in the building here. The saturday dancehall show is straight up insanity too. The downside (at times) is the screaming. Every single DJ screams at this station. Sometimes the energy is there but a lot of the time its just annoying. Also, they bang through mixes very quickly at times playing only one minute of a track. This is annoying especially if they put on your joint and you're like.... awww shhhhh thats my jam!!! ... but then.... its GONE and they go into another Rick Ross song. UGH! Also, dont believe all their screamy hype - not every DJ in their roster is dope. A couple need to work on their mic sets and practice scratching with serrato at home to perfect it before hitting the airwaves.

Guster is ALWAYS a great show, just saw them last month at the Opera House, and they played an amazing show and were hilarious. But anyway, WBOS is one of my favs, always playing new music. Rarely play a song to death like some of the other Boston-based stations. There's always a nice variety, which the other stations aren't too keen on either.

I loved that station; they actually played quality music that was not in the cheesey 'adult contemporary' genre. I discovered lots of great singer-songwriters through their station like Brandi Carlile, Chantal Kreviazuk, etc. I used to love their Sunday Over-Easy acoustic show, and they had a similar After-Dark program at night where they would play tunes and discuss them intelligently with a local music critic. They also promoted Paula Cole's back-to-the-spotlight concert, and continued to play Sheryl Crow's recent albums even though they didn't garner much attention from Top 40 stations. Can you tell I like female singer-songwriters, by the way?? Anyhow, back to its current programming: I call this station "Nineties- two nine," since they play all 90s alternative rock. It was nostalgic at first, and I enjoyed singing along to some of the older tunes [while simultaneously feeling horrified that I'm so old that the decade of music I grew up listening to now needs its own station.] But they seem to only repeat the hits of the 90s, and really, I ask you this: how much Offspring can one person take? The pre-recorded female radio announcer sounds smug and self-righteous. I want to reach into the radio and slap her face. She recorded really stupid one liners to introduce the commercials like, "Raise your hand if you want to hear more music in just sixty seconds." Asinine! or, "We play great music, and our advertisers pay our electric bill. Good deal!" or some sh*t to that effect. It makes me want to die. So, in conclusion: Hate it. RIP WBOS, and to the awesome artists they used to book at Earthfest. This year it's Cake, Cracker, English Beat, and The Bo-Deans. And if they do the free Copley concerts this summer like WBOS used to, I'm sure it'll be more washed-up 90s acts. Ugh.

This is the worst college radio station in America, which is nuts because 30 years ago it was among…read morethe best. College radio is widely understood as the freeform radio vanguard, where one can hear musical offerings unavailable on commercial radio. When I tune into a college station, I don't want to hear a single song I know. 99% of what WERS plays nowadays is Top 40 "alternative" music from the 80s and 90s. Stuff I've been sick of for decades. Honk shoo. It's a college station masquerading as a commercial station masquerading as a twenty year-old iPod. If you are a retailer looking for the most unchallenging background noise for your shoppers to ignore, or perhaps a listener looking for a radio station to convince you that not only has there been no good music made in the past 35 years, but also that maybe music was just never good, WERS is it.

Yet this station, the radio voice of Brandeis University is a welcome relief from the slick overprogrammed junk filling the commercial airwaves. WBRS provides a bit of everything for its listeners. In the mornings there is contemporary rock music, especially some of the older punk stuff and edgy independent tunes that other stations are afraid to play. Later on a listener might hear ethnic, folk, or reggae or, perhaps some sports talk from a couple of college students. It's eclectic and creative, with an emphasis on content. While most radio stations are constrained by a tightly programmed format WBRS breaks free from these bounds. It's a reminder of how smaller stations can be more entertaining than the children of media powerhouses. Only reason it loses one star is because of its low-power transmitter.
