George H.W. Bush is a rare example of a modern United States President that only served one term (Carter represents the other case in the last 50 years). That alone would provide more than enough fuel for viewers to be fascinated throughout this documentary’s runtime, but there is free and unfettered access to the former president himself. The types of topics that are broached during 41 seem to know…
The sheer sorrow of the tale told during Booster is something that will resound loudly too anyone that has had friend or family in dire straits. Simon is a Bostonite that has to steal just to make ends meet, while Simon’s brother Sean gets rapidly tangled up in a criminal action that could lead to death or life in prison. Seymour Cassel (Oscar nominee for 1969’s Faces) fills out…
I’ve always been a little troubled that little was made of the fact that Rage Against the Machine, a rock band that was known for scathingly anti-corporate lyrics (even heading down to Wall Street for their, well anti-Wall Street rant “Bulls on Parade” video), chose not to turn to an established independent label to release their music, or even take the Ani Di Franco/Fugazi route and start their own label,…

GLAMOUR OF THE KILL has issued a studio update surrounding their new record due out next year. Click HERE or the image above to view! GLAMOUR OF THE KILL is currently tucked away in Rochester, Michigan with producer Joey Sturgis (Asking Alexandria, Attack Attack) working on their follow up to “The Summing” which came out last year. “The Summoning” release in the US was followed by a successful run on the…
The timing of Alan di Perna’s bio on Oakland’s favorite pop punks is a little ill-timed. The hardcover coffee table book is well-researched, impressively chronicled and features everything from pics of programs and old tour posters to t-shirts and rare flyers. But the book leaves the Green Day story in early 2012, just as the band is going into the studio to record what would be an ambitious three-album project…
/ 2012 Acacia / 69 Minutes | 57 Minutes / http://acacialifestyle.com/ Depending on what style of workout one utilizes, what is taught during SparkPeople’s Total Body Sculpting and Canyon Ranch’s Yoga for Strength & Energy may be more useful. These collections of workouts (3 on the SparkPeople DVD, and 2 on the Canyon Ranch release) both average about an hour, which is the maximum length for additional benefit to accrue…
Though the UK ska band Madness may always be trapped in 1982 for many of their U.S. fans, thanks to the wildly popular “Our House,” the two-tone group has continued to build up their resume since reuniting in the early 90’s. Though the success has mainly been limited to Europe (they were tapped to play the closing ceremonies of the 2012 London Olympics along with a number of festivals), the…
/ 2012 Eagle Rock / 81 Minutes / http://www.eaglerockent.com The Groundhogs are an act that still has it. The live show was captured in February of 1998 at the Astoria (London) and contains all of the band’s best known cuts (Cherry Red, Still a Fool, and Groundhog Blues are all present). The video quality of Live At the Astoria is absolutely stellar, while the audio captured is clear and without…

Episodes contained here include Floodlights, Snowball of Doom, Ice Cold in Pontypandy, The Pontypandy Polar Bear, and The Big Chill.

Do we really have to worry? Is our civilization standing right on the edge of the abyss? Is the Maya calendar actually right, predicting the end of the world on December 21, 2012? New age circles are convinced that the apocalyptic prophecy can be derived from the Mesoamerican civilization’s calendar. “Complete bullshit”, reckons Andi Deris, singer of German melodic metal band Helloween. “We will all survive the year 2012 and…
Challenger began out of desperation. Desperate to feel better, desperate to escape, desperate for something more. Challenger is that cry. Alone, or together, the cry that sounds like a plea but builds momentum and becomes a force of change, of light, of positivity, of love; a change you can dance to. Additionally – the members are all from Florida (the best state, they agree). John Ross sings, plays guitar, and…
Online payday loans are the way to go to ensure that you have the best possible way of making it through the end of the month. With there being a considerable amount of stresses and other issues that can come at any time, it behooves individuals to come forth and try out one of these services.
Vamps is one of the few vampire movies that have been released in the last five years to consider the real-life ramifications of being a vampire and showcase a comedic light on these foibles. Krysten Ritter (Breaking Bad, Gravity) and Alicia Silverstone are the titular couple Stacy and Goody, who feed upon the hearts and life forces of the men that they meet. Their arrangement is threatened when Stacy starts…
Butter is a hilarious film that looks into a vital substance to the American breakfast table – Butter. There is a competitive butter sculpting scene that has just lost one of its finest competitors, Bob (Ty Burrell, Modern Family). Bob’s wife (Jennifer Garner, The Invention of Lying) enters the competition in order to restore the family name. The drama and intrigue that is present in competitive butter sculpting could easily…
The carpenters that are on a project are the ultimate determiners of whether the product that they are creating is excellent or just merely passable. While a great many individuals will say that carpentry is a dying art, I feel that there are a number of different carpenters that are creating exciting and otherwise otherworldly products with their bare hands. However, I feel that a great many of the chain…
Hello! Can you introduce yourselves to NeuFutur readers? Hey Readers, my name is Casey Hurt. It’s a pleasure to meet you. What changes do you see occurring in popular and more niche forms of music? I guess the biggest change that I’ve seen lately is Power and Choice moving back into the artists’ hands. Now more than every an artist can write, record and put out a record all on…
The Expendables 2 is pound for pound the beefiest action movie that has ever been released, and the crazy action and bigger than life feel translates nicely to the home theater. The Expendables 2 takes the crew of the first Expendables flick (Stallone, Statham, Lo, Lindgren, Couture and Crews) and throws them into a mission of revenge after new recruit (Billy the Kid, played by Liam Hemsworth) is killed.…
Ben 10 Omniverse is a game that captures all of the unique styling and feel of the various Ben 10 efforts and establishes a title that providers considerable replay value. The title refers to the game’s storyline, which allows players to fit into the shoes of either Teen or Young Ben. The game possesses distinctly different dynamics based on whether one players the single-player mode or has a friend join…
Stereotyperider plays an interesting brand of emo/indie-rock. Their first track on “Prolonging The Inevitable”, moves between rejoicing in odd arrangements at one point to rocking out in true emo-rock style throughout much of “Down As”. Immediately impressive are the guitar solos found on the aforementioned track, which move from sizzling guitar tracks that are slightly sloppy to some of the most impressive angular-technical that the genre has ever seen.…
