The Stool Pigeon (Blu-Ray)

Where a great deal of thrillers coming from Asian countries are tied with martial arts and are draped with only the smallest amount of plot, The Stool Pigeon is a film that looks back to directors like Hitchcock for influence. What results in this film is something that is tremendously compelling, action-filled, and unique enough to require a number of viewings. Viewers will get deep into the mind of Detective…

NeuFutur Magazine Introduces LYDIA

There are moments in the underground music community, when a band becomes something beyond its creator. It can communicate to an audience, deeper than any one person’s verbal explanation or interpretation. It’s something personal, and becomes something sacred. Great art is never literal, and usually left open for interpretation. With Lydia, that is exactly what has kept the phenomena alive….Lydia is not a person, but a feeling. They communicate in…

Miss Nobody (DVD)

Miss Nobody is a film that I believe strays away from different conceptions about current cinema; this unique film ties together a strong cast and crew and tells an interesting story. Specifically, Miss Nobody ties together Leslie Bibb (as Sarah Jane McKinney) with Brandon Routh (Milo Beeber) in a cat-eat-dog type of tale. Where Bibb’s character’s chance at promotion is seemingly shattered by Routh’s upstart character, something has to be…

Screeching Weasel – Wiggle (CD)

For years, all my Screeching Weasel collection consisted of was the classic Boogadaboogadaboogada, and I always wondered why people said all the local bands in Lancaster sounded like Screeching Weasel. With my receiving of “Wiggle”, I finally begin to understand what those individuals were talking about. This is the harder edge of the early nineties punk rock, a movement which had as its lighter front bands like Green Day and…

Screeching Weasel – How To Make Enemies & Irritate People (CD)

“How To Make Enemies” begins with “Planet Of The Apes”, a typical Screeching Weasel sound that yet has intense arrangements all around it. For example, the bass line present on the song is always present, but has a stepped-style sound to it that shows a cognizance of where Danny was in relation to the band. The entire sound of the band has been increase substantially in the space of one…

The Christian McBride Big Band – The Good Feeling (CD)

I believe that the different tracks on The Good Feeling allow The Christian McBride Big Band to stretch their collective limbs to the greatest possible degree. What results in this album is one of the largest collections of different influences and styles, created in a fashion that will have listeners of all age groups and styles listening along to every beat. The Good Feeling starts out with Shake ‘n Blake,…

Eve To Adam – Banquet For A Starving Dog (CD)

It is always interesting to see a band like Eve To Adam on the upside of their move toward fame; I believe that Banquet For A Starving Dog will be where many listeners first can get in to the band. The title starts off with Run Your Mouth, an assertive track that will provide fans with a first look into the band’s unique take on rock music. Where modern radio…

Screeching Weasel – Anthem For A New Tomorrow (CD)

“Anthem For A New Tomorrow” mixes the pop-punk of the Ramones with the wall of sound present with The Replacements and the earliest albums of Husker Du. While the band had already moved beyond the short and breakneck-paced tracks of “Boogadaboogadaboogada”, Screeching Weasel had came up with tracks on this album (such as “Rubber Room”) that replicate the speed of the earliest tracks with the catchiness present on albums like…

Brooklyn-based experimental guitar/drums duo CINEMA CINEMA will be celebrating the release of their “Shoot The Freak” EP (recorded with legendary hardcore producer Don Zientara) with a series of Southwestern dates, primarily opening for ex-Black Flag guitarist Greg Ginn.

Supremacy MMA (Playstation 3)

There have been a number of games released for consoles that have tried to capitalize on the MMA crazy. Most of them, even those made by AAA game companies, have been flops. However, 505 Games have created in Supremacy MMA a title that has as much replay value as any of the WWE Smackdown Vs. Raw series of titles; even if the game is mired in violence, I believe that…

Rich Schroder – Your Kind Words (CD)

Rich Schroder plays the same style of singer-songwriter rock that can be heard in many a coffee shop on any day of the week. There is more than a fair share of white boy soul, in the same style of a Mellencamp or a Billy Joel. However, this style is updated by the inclusion of styles common to artists like John Maher, so a wider swath of listeners can find…
