Steel Train – Twilight Tales From The Prairies of the Sun (CD) Review

  Steel Train is a band that seems to be a more electrified version of Vetiver, looking back to the entirety of the American music tradition, with tracks like “Road Song” looking back to both the average Country and Western band and The Beach Boys, all while infusing their own sound to the mixture. The entirety of “Prairies of the Sun” works underneath a very leisurely pace; this is not…

Steel Pier Sinners – Wicked (CD)

With a strong dose of John Melloncamp and the raspiness of a Bob Dylan, the Steel Pier Sinners bash through this extended EP almost too quickly to affect their audience. “Essex Road” shows the ebb and flow of the band, in that the twinkling of the high hats provided by Tony flow in perfectly to Ryan’s bass and Meagan’s guitar. Not immediately able to be categorized, Steel Pier Sinners would…

Stavesacre – How To Live With A Curse (CD)

  I always thought that Stavesacre was a much harder band than what is found on “How To Live With A Curse”. The style is something that is a blend of Deftones and P.O.D.; Stavesacre open up this album with a radio-friendly track that echoes throughout whatever room individuals are playing the CD in. The guitar work that is present during the opening minutes of the track hides behind the…

Charlotte Street: A Novel by Danny Wallace (Book)

There is no getting around the fact that British novelist Danny Wallace is going to be compared to Nick Hornby. A lot; which is a disservice to both writers, each talented and possessing a knack from writing sympathetic, slightly flawed character. Both write compelling fiction set around young men living in the UK and struggling to make sense of relationships with the opposite sex… wait, maybe there is a connection…

Peter Gabriel – So [25th Anniversary Deluxe Edition] (CD)

There was no escaping Peter Gabriel’s seventh album in the mid-80’s. Released in May of 1986, you could not turn on Top 40 Radio, and for some songs college radio as well, any given day without hearing “Sledgehammer,” “Red Rain,” “Big Time,” “Don’t Give Up” or “Mercy Street”. And MTV? The phenomenally creative videos for “Sledgehammer” and “Big Time” were like porn for the channel that at one time actually…

Forza Horizon (Xbox 360)

Forza Horizon is the best racing game that we have played at NeuFutur. Microsoft Studios has done a solid job at recreating the thrill of driving extreme sports car, while keeping the learning curve fairly small. Forza Horizon is one of the rare racing titles that allows players the range of motion of open-world simulations, all while creating realistic scenarios for a driver’s control and overall experience. The online multiplayer…
