I am unsure how many readers of NeuFutur remember it, but we had a record label going a few years back. One of the things we needed to have done for us was have CD sleeves printed out for us; I personally wish I knew of PSprint at that point. This is due to the fact that they are able to provide great deals with sharp printing, no matter whether…
I would venture that there are not many weeks where The Waterboy is not shown on some cable channel. The fact that is has stuck around television rotation for so many years after it was first released to theaters (1998) showcases that, despite the simplisticity of the title, that is an overall solid film. Whether it be Adam Sandler as the titular role, Kathy Bates (Drew Carey Show) as Mama,…
“With an electronic pop sound, Felix Da Housecat will craze club goers with his futuristic syntho-pop beats.†– BPM “Departing from his dance/house roots, Felix Da Housecat has shown that he is able to grow as an artist by creating He Was King, a surprising well-crafted electronic pop album. – Filter Magazine “Felix puts his own electro-tinged, drum machine-driven pop, robotic-vocaled stamp on everything.†– Paper Magazine Felix Da Housecat…
Rising Portland, OR-based band, Blind Pilot, kicks off a nationwide tour this October.

The album,…
Dan Deacon has spent most of 2009 doing things on a large scale – he toured with an ensemble ranging from 13 to 17 people, played large festivals like Lollapalooza, did the Round Robin tour with No Age and Deerhunter (aka No Deachunter) and even collaborated with an entire marching band (Providence’s What Cheer? Marching Band, who joined him in Chicago this past weekend). Now Deacon is taking things a…
“When two dudes in military-looking duds haul a reel-to-reel tape player, megaphones and telephones up on stage, plug in a bunch of mystery cables and proceed to perform an energetic, fist-pumping set of lushly orchestrated, guitar-drenched pop songs, you’re probably not going to forget who they are anytime soon.” – Cincinnati CityBeat BVLOS ANGELES, August 13, 2009 – Notably dubbed band you should know by MTV.com, the two-man indie-rock army…
It’s amazing this book ever made it to print. Music writer Barney Hoskyns was shut out at just about every attempt to interview anyone who was even remotely close to the notoriously media shy Tom Waits. In fact, the end of the book comes with a collection of often humorous e-mail transcripts from a slew of Waits’ friends, collaborators and associates explaining why they would not be able to answer…
The last time that we had a grape vodka in the NeuFutur Headquarters, it was Ciroc. We have not had too much in the way of experience with this variety of vodkas, but feel that UVIX is a great first review of this fresh interpretation of vodka. The presentation of the bottle is nice enough, with a frosted bottle and cork providing a little more in the way of class…
Few comedians are really able to go forth and really keep their material fresh over the period that Jim Breuer has. I must admit that I was not too familiar with eir work pre-SNL, but there has been some serious evolution of Breuer’s style over the course of about fifteen years. The great thing about this special is that it seems as if Comedy Central, the audience, and Breuer eirself…
With just seven songs, the Black Whales manage to make a damn fine introduction to the world. With influences that are as varied as The Clash, The Beach Boys, Talking Heads and The Kinks, Origins manages to incorporate a myriad of influences while still sounding starkly original.
