- Review: Erykah Badu’s New Amerykah Part One (4th World War) (The Saviors’ Day)
Ordinarily, we at The Score aim to share the love on great music. It’s much more fun letting people know about something that’s moved you to tears (for the right reasons) rather than frustrated the bejesus out of you. Sometimes though, an artist is just asking for it. Sometimes, they […]
- GTA4 - Civilisation Collapse Imminent
Grand Theft Auto 4 is released today to the frantic pawing of gamers, ringing tills of retailers and fevered brows of the moral majority. The fourth in the critically acclaimed and commercially monstrous crime ‘em-up returns players to Liberty City, the location of the mould-breaking GTA3. That game single-handedly […]
- Doddy and Wes: Laughing at the Taxman
Following the news that Hollywood actor Wesley Snipes has been jailed for three years for tax offences, we at The Score, have managed to get an exclusive transcript from a call that Snipes received from legendary comedian Ken Dodd (also accused of tax evasion in 1989). Apparently, Dodd called Snipes in an effort to “cheer […]
- There and Back Again…
Illustration by John Howe.
Excitement has us in it’s ferocious (and slightly sweaty) grip as The Hobbit, finally, is confirmed for production and Guillermo Del Toro is confirmed as Director.
While many fans still clamour for Jackson to direct the tale of Bilbo, some bearded fellow, a few short chaps and a giant lizard; we can’t help […]
- High-rise project to adversely affect unique Capitol echo chambers
The LA Times are reporting that a 16-story development which is set to contain “93 condominiums, 13,442 square feet of commercial and office space and a 242-space underground parking lot next to the landmark, 13-floor, record-shaped building” could damage the world renowned echo chambers contained in the underground of the Capitol Records building.
The Marina Del […]
- “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 […]
- Love Is In Blum with Jeff Goldblum
Hello there children! Welcome to my new weekly column on everything shocking and dripping in entertainment. I am talking to you after a particularly vexing afternoon which was spent trying to get Burt Reynolds to mop up his ungodly filth that came from a midnight burrito feast. That old man can’t handle his meat. I […]
- OPINION: Ivor, No No No.
In a stunning display of reckless and unforgivable idiocy, Amy Winehouse has been nominated for three prizes at this year’s Ivor Novello awards.
Two of her tracks are up for the Best Song award (Love Is A Losing Game and You Know I’m No Good) while the aptly titled Rehab is up for the Best Selling […]
- Bob Dylan Bootleg Series Vol. 8 in the works?
From the paper version of the ISIS newsletter, Wednesday 9th April 2008, included by Ian Woodward:
For some time now, traces of rumour have been accumulating that, between them, suggest Legacy Records will be releasing another in the “Bootleg Series” later this year. In itself, this may not be too surprising but it seems that, […]
- REVIEW: Paul Brady - “The Missing Liberty Tapes”
“Some guys got it down, Leonard Cohen, Paul Brady, Lou Reed. Secret heroes.”
-Bob Dylan, from the Biograph Liner Notes
Before he veered into making pop and rock music, Paul Brady was one of the finest interpreters of Irish Traditional music. Replacing Christy Moore briefly in 1974, Brady toured with Planxty. Brady then went on to tour […]
