Saint Archer’s White Ale pours with a hazy and pale yellow coloration and a small about of white head that provides a light lacing down the bottle. The initial nose of this White Ale provides some hints of coriander and grain, but it is the first sip that fully establishes the totality of tastes that one will experience with this brew. There is a crispness to Saint Archer’s White Ale…
The first studio album from New York’s Whitewash is so steeped in hipster cred that of course they had to issue it on cassette tape. Despite that eye-roll inducing move (no one should put an album out on tape in 2015, I don’t care how retro you think you are), the band actually has a powerfully impressive sound to fall back on.
I have been waiting for years to see Tacoma’s finest, The Sonics. They burst onto the Washington scene in the early 1960s and to me, they are the band that invented punk rock. The guitars blast at a high decibel and the drums slam like the set could collapse at any moment. The music is hectic rock n roll played with what would later be describer as a “punk rock…
Can you give us a little background information? I grew up on Long Island, New York. I played with my family in music always, as my dad was an Evangelist, and my sister and I did the praise and worship ministry for him, using our voices, guitar, and some piano. My brother tagged along for the ride.
We had a moment to sit down with Toronto’s Allyson Murrell. How is everything going with you today? Everything is going great, thanks!
Can you provide a little information about the different band members and what their role is in the band? Erik Lindelid, 22. The youngest in the band, is our bassplayer and vocalist. Slapping the bass and screaming his lungs out.
Grenco is working with Snoop Dogg for the release of his latest album, Bush. For this collaboration, Grenco has created a sub-$150 package that includes a digital download of “Bush”, a flower pot and seeds, and a custom BUSH G Pro vaporizer that is uniquely designed to Snoop’s specifications. The color scheme (cream and green) makes for a visually distinctive device.
The gulf in quality between the best and the most lacking headphones available for the Xbox One is considerable. The Ear Force XO SEVEN gaming headsets by Turtle Beach represent the high end of the spectrum, marrying an approachable price point ($100-150) to a rugged build and large amount of functions. The audio produced by the 50mm Neodymium drivers allow for faithful reproduction of the highs and lows. Voices (whether…
Michael Douglas, long past leading man status, is finding a great second act playing the villain. Beyond the Reach is one of his creepiest turns yet as the bad guy.
Berggruen and Gardels establish the current state of world politics as being bipolar. The consumer democracy present in the United States and the Confucian one-party (the “modern manderinate”) role of China represent two paths which new states can take, but each form of governance could stand to be approved; “while China…would need more participatory government and a more accountable meritocratic mandarinate to achieve balance, the United States would need a…
