The first season of Superjail may just be the best that Adult Swim has ever played. The trippy visuals, utterly bizarre stories, and insanely catchy theme music unite to create an experience that is unforgettable. After a few years, the second season of Superjail finally aired. I believe that the themes and overall feeling generated by this first season is ratcheted up further with the second. The time dilation that…

Scivation has been on a tear as of late. Whether it be their pre-workout Novem or their intraworkout Xtend, their products represent the highest quality. Late last year, they released their Whey Protein in vanilla and chocolate. While the amount of proteins on the market are numerous, I believe that Scivation’s effort is one that is different. The miscibility of the product is some of the best that we have…

The overall presence of Christian films is the praise of Jesus or the teaching of specific morals. I believe that WWJD II fulfills both of these goals. However, this film does what most Christian cinema is unable to do – it entertains as it inspires. This is due to the smart direction of Terry Ingram just as much as it is the stars that grace this film. John Ratzenberger (Ernest…

The Grecian downbeat-pop duo meanders through almost-forgotten electronic salad days and R&B beats of yesteryear. Melding an Ibizan ethic with new age, atmospheric synthesizing, KSiA continues to push the…

Whether it is showing off a fondness for precursor genres like blues and jazz or boldly forging through in new directions, Cocker ensures that listeners will not be bored. The set of musicians tapped to lay down hooks, drum lines,…

Newcastle’s unique flavor is something that has to be present in any seasonal effects from the brewery. This IPA variant is able to build off of this unique mantra and provide imbibers with an experience that is unparalleled. Newcastle has provided individuals with a blend of Super Styrian and Styrian Goldings hops. This has the effect of inserting a little bite to the subtle smoothness that exists. This is assertive…
Exploding with thunderous beats and crunching power chords, IAMDYNAMITE establish themselves as a two-piece rock and roll force to be reckoned with on their debut LP SUPERMEGAFANTASTIC. Armed with a single guitar, a basic drum kit and locked-in harmonies, the energy from the duo burns through speakers and electrifies off the stage whenever IAMDYNAMITE unleashes their unprecedented brand of noise. Today, MPR premiere’s the first video from SUPERMEGAFANTASTIC for…

There are a number of different animation traditions to be had I the world, and I believe that those living in the United States have largely been limited to a select few of these (domestic animation and Japanese anime, for example). New Yorker Films has picked a number of the strongest representations of these different animation styles, and has placed them in an easy to view format. While there…
Godflesh, Head of David, Napalm Death, Techno Animal, Jesu, Greymachine, Palesketcher – just some of the projects from the insanely prolific Justin Broadrick, who in his new relationship with 3by3, raises his Techno Animal moniker JK Flesh from the dead for it’s debut full-length outing, to once again prove his mastery of all things brutal. Posthuman certainly resembles the darker side of Broadrick’s sound (circa Techno Animal, Godflesh and Greymachine)…
