Finally brought over from Japan by Xseed Games, Retro Game Challenge is a hellaciously fun title for the DS that links together the model ability of the console with gameplay and stylings from the late eighties and early nineties. After players fire up the title, individuals will be transported into essentially an arcade of homage titles which to properly conquer. This means that there are titles that take on old-school…
Yet another drunk punk band that was cast in the mold of Hilljack and Dropkick Murphys, but is yet still a band that doesn’t get old. The guitars are clear, driving the music, and the semi-screamed out lyrics never get old. Oi music even gets its deserved nod in “P.T.I”. The great thing with this disc – and I don’t know if it was an intentional thing or not, but…
Prior to this, I had only familiarized myself with the most well-known gins currently on the market. That means that I have had Beefeater and Tanqueray, but had missed out on something like Bluecoat. After getting a bottle of that spirit in the mail, I have to wonder where Bluecoat had honestly been all of my life. While the Bluecoat is self-labeled as an “American Dry Ginâ€, I find little…
Everyone knows that Cabo Wabo tequila is Sammy Hagar’s own brand. However, what individuals may not know is that the spirit is done of the best tequila out on the market, even closing in on the quality of the tequilas being released by the best Mexican tequila houses. Where most spirits have bouquets that hit potential drinkers and quickly fade away, Cabo Wabo’s bouquet is bold, brash, and every bit…

NeuFutur (and NeuFutur.com ) brings you the Top Ten List of Rap Songs That You’ll Be Hearing in Late Spring / Early Summer 2009. I’ve been able to call a number of songs months (or scores of months) before they hit major rotation. The preceding list is my attempt to tell you what will be big in April and May, if not later. Check out these tracks and get on…

Telly’s “Free Music For Sale†is an album that is truly timeless. While the tracks on the album will appeal well to a contemporary audience, the songs on the disc fit equally well into a number of eras and different genres. This accessibility is the reason why “Free Music For Sale†is such a hit; jazz, funk, rock, and countless other sounds and stylistic approaches morph together into something new…
I don’t like a great deal of country music. Call me uncultured or otherwise wrong, but I do not find much to appreciate in the genre. However, a band named Sway has done wonders in their “Let It Roll†to show me the inherent beauty of the style. “Let It Roll†starts off with “Cowgirl Sceneâ€, a track that immediately shows the talent inherent in the effort of all four…
Lucia Seas has had a productive 2008. In May, she released “Keep The Drive Aliveâ€, and she ended the year with the single “The Best of Your Soulâ€. What exactly about this artist makes her one of the best up and coming artists out there, though? When one tunes in to the introductory track “Cashâ€, what they are introduced to is a world in which genre labels do not matter…
Individuals that have not had a chance to take on the Noilly Prat on their own should look into it; it is an interesting type of spirit that really has nothing in the way of comparison. This is likely due to the different blend of herbs and spices that are entered into the unique process that Noilly Prat has guarded, and is the main reason why it is seen as…
Blue Dragon, the prequel to Blue Dragon Plus, was a game that really did not receive the acclaim that it deserves. The game itself should have been huge, being designed by a firm that was created by someone intimately familiar with the Final Fantasy games. The storyline for Blue Dragon Plus builds off of the actions that took place in the first game, and by the time players have finished…
NeuFutur Magazine, neufutur.com and Total Assault have joined forces in creating a contest to mark Mastodon’s new album, “Crack the Skye”. Mastodon will be unleashing Crack the Skye, on March 24th. To help celebrate the release, Mastodon will be giving away a new Gibson Melody Maker to one grand prize winner.
This tequila blanco is one of the first tequilas that I have ever tasted that has been flavored. As can be gleaned from the bottle, the varietal of Tanteo that wee are trying is the Tanteo Chocolate. The bottle itself looks hand-blown, with the label having a very homegrown quality to it. Cap it all off with a snazzy seal and a wood-topped cork, and one will be delighted if…
I know that Zyr has been in the market in selection locations around the United States for the last seven or so years, but I was not privy to it until we received a bottle for review. When one thinks of vodka, the first country that will immediately come to mind is Russia. This spirit is captured in a majestic blue-tinted glass bottle that has a smattering of Cyrillic present…
“Reverend Charismaâ€, the new release from Wedlock, was a solid enough song the first time I heard it and gave it the focus that it deserved on the web site (and possibly in a future issue of the magazine). I learned today that Wedlock has stepped their game up and have created a video that will change how listeners (and viewers) understand the song (and the band generally).
NeuFutur Magazine and Total Assault have joined together to come up with a killer Hollywood Undead Contest. We, Total Assault, and Hollywood Undead have teamed up to hook up one lucky grand prize winner with a Playstation 3 prize pack that includes the game system and Madden NFL ’09.
“Faded Love†is one of the strongest introductions to Jana Mashonee’s music that could conceivably be placed on an album like “New Moon Bornâ€. This is largely due to the arrangements and how the instrumentation plays well with the vocals present on the track; the funky, tightly-wound set of insutrmentation here fuels the vocals into a whole other realm. Mashonee’s vocals, especially during tracks like “Faded Loveâ€, play on classic…
The title track to “Sentimentally…To Africa†begins off this album, and one is immediately hit with a rich collage of artists as storied as UB40 and Paul Simon. Simons himself is more eclectic than either act, marrying together African with Caribbean rhythms, while tying the resulting music with pop sensibilities that will ensure that fans of current music will find something that they can love on “Sentimentally…To Africaâ€. “Take My…
Epitaph Records is proud to confirm the worst kept secret of 2009, the signing of one of hardcore-rock’s most notorious bands Every Time I Die. With the ink on the contract barely dry, the band is eager to enter the studio this spring to record their debut for the label, which is expected for release this fall.
