We reviewed PreSurge Unleashed last year, but were provided with a bottle of their Citrus Ice. I believe that this allows us to have a better appreciation for what this pre-workout can do, especially since we have covered a number of similar products in the interim. The amount of energy that is provided by the PreSurge Unleashed is substantial, but at no point does this energy transfer into jitteriness…
Before there were celebrity-endorsed headphones, there was Plantronics. The company understands headsets and headphones, and has done so for countless years. Their BackBeat Go is their latest product offering, and is the best headset that we have reviewed this year. The clarity of the BackBeat Go in music reproduction is astonishing, revealing bits and pieces of tracks that one could not hear on a typical speaker setup. However, this…
It is hard for an individual to move from the all-in-one vitamins to the supplements that they actually need; a company like Paradise Herbs has tens of different products in stock. For those uninitiated, L-Carnosine is a neuropeptide that both decreases the amount of oxidative stress as well as protects the body from aging. There is also early evidence that properly supplementing with L-Carnosine will decrease some of the…
1616: The World in Motion (Book) / Thomas Christensen / 2012 Counterpoint Press / 384 Pages / http://www.counterpointpress.com/ / http://www.facebook.com/counterpointpress I believe the average American has little idea what was happening on the world stage 150 years before the United States became a country. Thomas Christensen looks to rectify this lack of knowledge with eir new book, 1616: The World in Motion. This title goes into exhaustive detail about the…
Physique Enhancing Science is a newer supplement company, and this means that they are able to benefit more directly from current research than firms that have been around. This is particularly present in their Alpha-T2, a fat burning supplement. Alpha-T2 is not your average fat burner; the 1-2-3 punch of Higenamine, Rauwolscine HCl, and 3,3′-diiodo-l-thyronine is unmatched in the rest of the supplement world. Rauwolscine is a compound that…
TEODOR TUFF is a band in constant change. Upon the departure of three members in 2010, the band was joined by Christer, Rayner and Terje Harøy, lead guitarist, bass player and vocalist, respectively. Christer and Rayner are brothers, and also happen to play in Divided Multitude. Terje is their cousin. The band’s sound has now changed dramatically, and TEODOR TUFF comes across as a pure metal band with its…
There are an incredible amount of different thermogenics that are currently out on the market. However, the quality of each of these products varies. We were able to test Applied Nutriceuticals’s new product Fat Free, and we are pleased to report that the supplement works for a variety of individuals. I believe that Fat Free has such a high efficiency in energy generation and fat burning because of Applied Nutriceuticals’s…
The Jamie McLean Band is one of the acts that are tight enough to make a live recording sound as good as a recorded one. The band, tying together McLean (guitar / vocals), Brian Griffin (drums / vocals) , and Ben Mars (bass / vocals), releases their Live At Gibson in May. This album takes ten tracks and two guests (Jason Crosby and Taylor Hicks) and will convert anyone lucky…
Good Old War has continually innovated and evolved their sound since their 2008 debut, Only Way To Be Alone. Come Back as Rain is their third full-length, and showcases an act that is incredibly comfortable in their overall dynamic as a band. The album starts off with Over and Over, a track that builds off of the repletion alluded to by the title and subtly shifts the arrangement, until what…
Anais Mitchell is one of the most exciting performers currently active in America. This is because ey fully takes up a role with Young Man in America, and does not drop the façade until after the disc’s final track, Ships, closes up. This theme album is able to succeed in any fashion, whether listeners are just able to pick up a single track, can listen on repeat, or even see…
Mickey Avalon has announced a second leg of the “Loaded” tour which now extends into June with support coming from Millionaires. The tour kicks off April 13th in Tempe, AZ and now totals 43 shows across the U.S. and Austrailia which is being presented by Jägermeister. Celebrate the release of Mickey’s new album, Loaded on April 24th with a special performance at the Key Club in Hollywood, CA. All fans in attendance will receive a free copy…

The clip features performance footage from the band’s current North American Tour, continuing tomorrow with a sold out show at the Tampa Bay Times Forum in Tampa, FL. A Different Kind of Truth, the band’s first album with lead singer David Lee…
The Lumineers gained much critical acclaim upon the release of their debut EP in 2011. This 2012 release looks to expand upon the styles, approaches, and genres originally broached during this title and expand upon a variety of different sounds. Flowers in Your Hair is the first track on this LP, and provides listeners with the first hint of the band’s inimitable new-folk leaning. Throughout the tracks on this LP,…
When Andrew Weatherall brought the party to town for Fred Perry’s SubSonic at The Garage, everyone knew they were in for a night of unadulterated eclecticism. As you would expect Andy didn’t disappoint curating and creating yet another roadblock for this welcome bi-monthly addition to London’s nightlife calendar. SubSonic is however as much about breaking new acts as celebrating legends and we have a couple of the live highlights from…
New York City has always been a hot spot for music, but its’ allure has faded ever so slightly with the prominence of other cities and countries in the last decade. Ravens & Chimes look to restore that luster to the Big Apple with their new title, Holiday Life. Holiday Life begins with Division Street, a track that captures the different tacks taken by the band throughout each of the…
MATT SKIBA AND THE SEKRETS will be going out on their first-ever tour this June in support of their forthcoming debut album, Babylon. A limited number of tickets have been held for MATT SKIBA AND THE SEKRETS fans and are now available through an exclusive Ducat King presale. By buying tickets through this presale, fans will be able to get their tickets before anyone else and save some money on…
Madonna: Truth or Dare was one of the defining moments in Madonna’s career. Where ey was flagging after a successful 80s, this 1991 title re-sexualized the performer and sent eir off into a career path that is still paying considerable dividends. Previous releases of Madonna: Truth or Dare have been done competently, but I feel that the Blu-Ray format more accurately captures the desire of director and pop diva alike.…

Over the years, there have been cases of people being harmed, violated and robbed in public, with no one willing to stand up and help, as spectators watch these situations unfold, and offer no assistance. The most recent case took place in Baltimore, Maryland, where a crowd beat, stripped and robbed a tourist on St. Patrick’s Day with spectators watching and laughing as the event took place. Displaying the type…
