Not Where I Wanna Be slows things down and provides Sarantos ample opportunity to create an expansive and sedate effort that continues to twinkle long after the song has ceased. The deliberate tempo crafted here will indelibly tattoo the rhythms and melodies deep into the psyche and hearts of listeners, something that the song shares with Are You Sure You Can Last Long. Are You Sure You Can Last Long…
Pretzels are quite possibly the most divine snack food for those nights when individuals have friends over. They are great alone, with beer, or any other sort of soft drink. The Oktoberfest pretzels that Snyder’s of Hanover are currently selling give a little more oomph to the average pretzels that are on the market. One is able to have considerable body to the pretzels with just the right amount of…
Charades is an introduction to the complex and challenging efforts that are commonplace on the album of the same title. SoHo Party is a tremendously interesting effort, with the instrumentation setting up a narrative that is furthered through the alluring vocals – hints of Pinkerton-era Weezer can be easily discerned. I Could Care Less takes Tulsa emotive rock and links it to Death Cab for Cutie to establish something wholly…
We were able to go camping for the first time in my life a few months ago and everything seemed to be great. The one thing that we did not anticipate was to have a flashlight or other light emitting source. This meant that whenever we went to the bathroom or had to conduct any business between different tents we were quite literally in the dark. Sure, most current generation…

This may be the first item that we have received that is marketed for the 2014 holiday rush. It makes all of the sense in the world that this release would be surrounding one of television’s favorite shows, Duck Dynasty. This box set captures seasons 4 through 6 in a format that is easy to watch and encapsulates what has happened to the Robertson clan over the course of the…
Over the course of 2014, fast-emerging singer, songwriter and producer Holly ‘Låpsley’ Fletcher has become one of the most hotly tipped new UK artists around. Through beautifully crafted songs such as “Station” and “Painter (Valentine)”, the 18-year old, Southport, England-raised artist has created a unique sonic identity, mixing sparse, minimal electronic production with gorgeous, emotive songwriting.
We have played Fluxx in the past and have really had fun with it. The company looks to change up their subject material to receive the most interest, and Stoner Fluxx is their latest creation. The game runs similarly to a traditional version of Fluxx but differs in terms of the subject matter. This means there are still rules (Keepers, Goals, Actions) or collections of cards that need to be…
True Blood is one of HBO’s flagship shows and is a rare example of a drama that maintains its freshness after seven seasons. The ultimate season has been rounded out through the inclusion of a number of more than capable guest and supporting stars making the 10 episodes of the final season extraordinarily easy to watch. In November HBO will be releasing The Complete Seventh Season box set on Blu…
The titular beginning to Any Other Way is a track that ties together Garbage, Atari Teenage Riot, and an earlier, late seventies / early eighties goth sound (Siouxsie and the Banshees, 45 Grave) into something that is instrumentally intense while having a very approachable sound. Flesh and Bone further varies up RxGF’s sound in its inclusion of dual harmonies; the shuffling sound of the synths and drums create an effort…
Dungeons & Dragons has been one of my favorite games for over 15 years and the game itself has captured the minds and hearts of fans for over 40 years. The Monster Manual is one of the earliest books that TSR (now owned by Wizards of the Coast) released and it is integral for any Dungeon Master (DM) that wants to utilize a bevy of beasties for their game. The…
All I Think About starts with an energetic clap and stomp sound that sets the stage for the various paths that The Great Escape will take on their eponymous album. This first track introduces listeners to Amie Miriello, whom is able to craft her own distinct musical path while taking up the standard previously carried by Lorde and Adele. The hard, seventies-infused rock that hits hard during this first track…
This three-piece act has an energetic rock style that will keep listeners locked in from the beginning to the end of their latest release, Be Yourself. The introductory track on Be Yourself (Be Yourself in Time) shines on honest vocals, intricate guitars, and splashy drums that resound loudly. Hey Darlin’ is soulful, a hint funky, and is completed with a ropey and thick bass line. The production makes the finished…
Can’t get behind Robin Thicke’s white guy soul act (be it because there is too much modern pop and not enough soul in the mix… or maybe just because he’s an asshat)? There are plenty of others who can fill that funk void, from the brilliant Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings to the under-the-radar jams of someone like Caleb Hawley.
There are a number of different monthly subscription boxes that are available for people to purchase. Some of them are used to provide information to store owners what upcoming products that can be stocked in supermarkets, while others have a specific focus to them. Candy Club is a company that looks to provide individuals with an arsenal of otherwise hard to find candy. We are lucky enough to receive 1…

OWSLA has picked up their newest signees Carmada fresh out of Sydney. Members Yahtzel and LDRU have been playing individual sets over the past year with a chokehold on Australia’s dance music scene, but after a back to back set at Splendour in the Grass to a crowd of 10,000 they made the bromance official and joined together as Carmada. The two look like they were born out of the…
Okami’s Fresh and Healthy Wild Alaskan Caught Salmon Bowl is a frozen meal that looks to go and redefine what one of the frozen meals can do in regards to overall taste and fine quality. This means that the company’s Fresh and Healthy Wild Alaskan Caught Salmon Bowl has a chunk of the fish sitting on top, a generous portion of protein that will stave off ketosis. The bowl also…
2014 marks the 30th anniversary of THANATOS and the release of their new album, Global Purification!
