Soft Rocks release debut album ‘The Curse of Soft Rocks’

After years, this vinyl-wielding 4-piece originating from Brighton, UK – the one and only Soft Rocks – have finally committed their collective wit to a slew of original tunes. Their debut album, The Curse of Soft Rocks, is without-a-doubt a departure from the current musical climate. Opening track We Hunt Buffalo Now is a punky, low slung dub affair that also serves as the first single in a series surrounding…

Yuck – Yuck Deluxe Edition (CD)

There are a whole slew of different influences and styles that are cultivated during the twelve tracks that comprise the original self-titled effort by Yuck. However, I feel that the album takes a much different tone when a second CD of six tracks are included. Fat Possum has just released a deluxe edition of this album, providing fans with some fun new tracks and a snappy packaging option. Rubber is…

X-Men: First Class (Blu-Ray)

I was fairly sure that the X-Men franchise was gradually going to come to an end after the X-Men Origins: Wolverine title did a little worse than movie executives thought. X-Men: First Class was the way in which the X-Men franchise was able to properly gain steam, and I believe that Fox’s work with this Blu-Ray is strong enough to properly foster additional interest in the series. X-Men: First Class…

Frogger (3DS)

At some point, there is nothing to Frogger. One has to avoid different moving (fast and slow) objects to get to the other side. How Konami ultimately makes it into a title that individuals will want alongside all of the different titles being released for the platform is something that I want to look into. The multiplayer option that is presented here allows up to four players a chance to…

Frat House Massacre (DVD)

Very few horror films are scary or otherwise interesting anymore. If they are not remakes of older American or foreign horror films, the production values of a great many of these films are just too low to provide an immersive experience. I have faith in the horror genre with the release of a new title – Frat House Massacre. Where males in film are traditionally seen as those that are…

Calgon Bath Pearls

There are a number of different products that one can use in their bath. Whether it is the tried and true Epsom salts, bubble bath, or any other blend (bath salts), there is typically a good feel and smell blended together. However, I feel that some of these products are better than others. The Calgon Bath Pearls that we received are better than others on the market. First off, there…

J. Cole – Cole World: The Sideline Story (CD)

With the storm of troubles that J. Cole has had to weather over the course of the last few months (problems with the release schedule of eir mixtapes, being dropped from Jay-Z’s label due to dalliances with Rhianna), I really thought that the Cole World would be a much more uneven album. “Can’t Get Enough” is a great start to the album; it is a track that shows the fire…

Melvoy – Midnight Make Up (CD)

There is a rapid-fire approach taken by Melvoy that will immediately capture the minds and hearts of anyone listening in. The first track on Midnight Make Up, “Dirty Girrl”, blends equal parts emotive rock, flamenco, and funk to create something with a quick tempo and an utterly catchy demeanor. After this initial salvo, Melvoy keeps things going nicely with their “Holding On”. The track furthers the punk thread that plays…

Johnny Walker Double Black Label (Whiskey)

With each passing year, I feel that the world gets more interconnected. This spirit was previously only available at different duty-free stores, and its brisk sales since its introduction has made it smart to introduce to American markets. But why exactly has this Johnny Walker effort been the talk of the town? I contend that there is such a unique feel and flair to this spirit that even those that…

Coleman Xtreme 5 Cooler

The general premise of a cooler uses technology that is fairly low-key. Just ensure that there is a good enough seal along with proper insulation and whatever food or drinks that one may have will stay warm for a length of time. However, Coleman has created their Xtreme 5 Cooler, a product that looks to improve upon previous efforts in the cooler field. They tout that ice will remain in…
