Jay Mizz We’re On Single Review

We’re On is a Jay Mizz track that builds off of the work of artists like Killer Mike and Jay-Z to create something that works perfectly with the past and present of rap music.

The Captive DVD Review

It seems like Ryan Reynolds can’t catch a break. He’s a good, often great actor, depending on the role. Not content to simply play the leading man to Sandra Bullock’s leading woman in one mindless romantic comedy after the next, he often seeks smaller, darker fare, which explains his choice with The Captive. Unfortunately this small-budget thriller, pairs solid acting with a weak, hard to follow plot. John B. Moorewww.neufutur.com

CIKATRI$ Aie ! – le trois 2 x 7” Review

Quand me réveillerai-je ? is a raucous blend of noise, punk, and ultimately comes forth as a mélange of Muse, Radiohead, and Oasis. Qui le fera ? is able to push further, coming forth with a vocal / instrumental dynamic that creates a wall of sound assaulting listeners.

Anie Lovekill EP Review

Anie ties together a wide variety of styles on their Lovekill EP, with a vocaloid approach yielding to a smart bit of indie rock. The blend of computerized and organic makes for a tremendous introduction to the act. Only Ever This ties together a happy, lounging set of vocals with a scintillating mass of instrumentation that runs the gamut from wide-open skies to a dark, stormy night. SargeantJohn Sargeant, writing…

The Kiss That Took A Trip Interview

Electroforest is your current album. What story does it tell? I tend to talk about very universal themes, but I have the bad habit of shrouding them in layers of highly personal and almost cryptic stuff, I can’t help it. Regarding the current album, that is no exception.

Conviction Pale Ale

Conviction Pale Ale is what BridgePort fans chose when tasked with a decision between three different beers last year during the brewery’s thirtieth anniversary. The beer pours with a dark yellow to orange coloration and a small (but persistent) white head. There is a sweet nose that is followed up by a slight hop bitterness. The first sip will provide imbibers with a decent amount of grain, smaller amounts of…

The fundaMentals Locked and Loaded / Full Mental Jacket Review

I Do It All for Rock ‘n’ Roll comes forth with the glitz and glamour of a Ratt or Cinderella; the piano that is interspersed during this track establishes The fundaMentals as creating something that looks to the past while still having a current and contemporary flair.

The Frequency – The Frequency EP Review

Contamination is a high-energy assault that still has enough in the way of hooky arrangements and alluring vocals to make a play for heavy rock rotation. An absolutely sickening guitar line tears up the track and allows for The Frequency to provide a wholly different sound for the second half of the track.

Babbling April Intervew

Where does your band name come from? Dave New:  I’ve always been inspired by literature and Graham Greene has always been one of my favorite authors.  His first release back in the early 1900’s was a volume of poetry entitled ‘Babbling April’ which was critically panned and quickly got pushed out of print.

Blue Moon White IPA

Blue Moon has just updated their product line with their latest, a White IPA; the beer pours with a hazy yellow to gold coloration and a very lightly off white head. There is a bready, yeasty nose to this beer that is punctuated by a slight hop bite. The initial sip is a skillful blend of these styles – there are hints of pepper, wheat, and sugar that is followed…
