- Dubya gets Stoned…
Due in October of this year, Oliver Stone’s much talked about W. aims to remind us that it is, indeed, possible for any idiot to become the President of the United States of Yankeeland.
Starring Josh Brolin as George W. Bush, Elizabeth Banks as Laura Bush, James Cromwell as Bush Senior, Ellen Burstyn as Barbara Bush, […]
- NEW MUSIC: The Brigadier
The Brigadier is Matt Williams, a Welshman based in Brighton, England, who writes, performs and produces his own timeless pop. With kudos and plaudits from the likes of Alan McGee and Mark Eitzel, people are starting to take notice of Matt’s catchy indie-pop tunes. He’s released two albums off his own back, the latest; […]
- MUSIC TECH: Yes, YOU Can Be The Producer!
A new digital music file format has been unveiled as a revolutionary new way of listening to music and hopes to sweep aside the plethora of formats currently available, such as mp3, WAV, FLAC, AAC etc. The new angle to the MT9 format, other than sounding like a sports car, is that each musical instrument […]
- NKOTB, I kid you not!
God bless Styalz Fuego, not only can the man produce a beat or three, he has his ear to the street for all the hot stuff.
New Kids on the Block have reformed.
No, that is not a typo, follow that link and you can even hear the “song.” As surprising as the comeback is, the most […]
- An Introduction To: THE BAND Part Two - REVIEW : MUSIC FROM BIG PINK
In a Station 1969
“Once I walked through the halls of a station.
Someone called your name.
In the streets, I heard children laughing.
They all sound the same.
Wonder could you ever know me?
Know the reason why I live.
Is there nothing you can show me?
Life seems so little to give.”
Richard Manuel - In a Station
Although most talk about […]
- Andy Kaufman Went Wrestling
Andy Kaufman was a comedian and performer who played with the lines of reality.
His stand-up performances were legendary for blurring the lines of what was real and what was staged. He frequently had friends planted in the audience so that he could abuse those who came to his shows directly or rather indirectly as this […]
- REVIEW: Elvis Costello & The Imposters - Momofuku
Earlier this year, in a magazine interview, Elvis Costello declared he wasn’t going to record anymore, bemoaning the fact that mp3s had killed off the concept of the album. Methinks Mr Costello was being mischievous, or perhaps he had a late change of heart, as we have a new album from him called, Momofuku.
The album […]
- Avril Lavigne in “Can’t Sing” Non-Shocker
Avril Lavigne has finally come out and confirmed what many of us have suspected for some years.
“I just can’t sing” whimpered the punk-pop-starlet. “Frankly, I’ve always suspected this. I’d like to apologise to all my fans for inflicting my banshee-lite punkish howling on them. Really, I don’t know what to say; this realisation has just […]
- The Den
You may not have heard of it, you may not be aware that it ever existed but for nearly two decades, the most innovative and prolific comedy show on Irish television was for children. Perhaps because RTE couldn’t have cared less, perhaps because it was live but The Den would invariably touch on issues that […]
- “Cultural Sensitivity - that’s what we’re about, baby…”
Few actors get The Score genuinely excited, regardless of the film they happen to be starring in. John Cusack is one of the few.
He’s always been a political sort, raging against the moral compromises and queasy warmongering of the current US administration; well now he seems to have found a movie-shaped outlet for his (many […]
