Malibu Black (70 Proof)

There are few spirits that are currently on the market that are able to maintain a fairly standard proof content while containing a fruit base. Malibu Black, Pernod Ricard’s new 70-proof rum, is a perfect example of how a company can do this well. Malibu Black is a marriage of rum and coconut, all while having the warm burn that the spirit is known for. Where a great many rums…

RJ & The Imperatives – Hurricane Season (CD)

When I first put this disc into the player, I had no clue what RJ & The Imperatives would sound like. However, by the time that “Find Yourself Falling” finish, one can hear hints of mid-seventies Bowie, Dire Straits, and even a little bit of Chicago. There is a classic sound to the track, but I can see the band playing in a fair or festival somewhere with an increasing…

Cars 2 (Playstation 3)

We’ve said it already – Cars 2 is destined to be one of the biggest childrens’ movies ever. It makes sense that there are a few products being released now that try to cash in on the film’s goodwill. The Cars 2 video game – available for all current formats – is one of these things. However, the gameplay present in this game is solid enough that the game would…

Carmen Rizzo – The Lost Art of the Idle Moment (CD)

The amount of guest stars that Carmen Rizzo has on this album is impressive; on this album Esthero, Jem, and Grant Lee Phillips all find their way onto the disc. The dreamy vocals of Esthero during “Too Rude” allows the arrangements of Rizzo to really reach their potential, as there is a Bjork/sixties dynamic at play throughout the entire track. The infusion of more atmosphere and some scratching a la…

Drive (Testosterone, Pump)

The sheer amount of different supplements on the fitness market is enough to have a potential buyer’s head spin. While understanding what a vitamin does is not too terribly hard, when individuals start hearing different abbreviations (HGH, ATP), it becomes incredibly confusing. This confusion only increases when it comes to the fact that each company creates a range of supplements that do different things based on what individuals want them…

Riverboat Gamblers – To The Confusion of Our Enemies (CD)

“Biz Love’s Sluts” is an interesting track, as it shows Riverboat Gamblers as a band that know well the pop punk that infected California in the early part of the nineties, but also shows that the band wants to unite this style with the emo/punk style of bands like Rise Against. The band changes up their style with “The Song We Used to Call “Wasting Time”” is much quicker, and…

Wild Cherry (Blu-Ray)

It takes a film like Wild Cherry to show me exactly the amount of different titles being released at any one given time. This 2009 film is finally seeing the light of day due to the tremendous work of Image Entertainment. This teen sex comedy focuses on the decision of Helen (Tania Raymonde) to provide eir boyfriend with one of the greatest gifts that ey can give – eir virginity.…
