Film Review: Wrath of the Titans
2010’s Clash of the Titans may not be the best film by far, but for a blockbuster with quite the action and visual effects filled center, it is a movie I honestly don’t get sick of watching when I just want to get lost in something. With this base and quite the exciting trailer, Wrath […]

If you don’t know who Dev is, then you must not go to the clubs that often. Maybe some songs that she was featured in could jog your memory? How about Far-East Movement’s “Like A G6,” or New Boyz’ “Backseat,” or anything really with The Cataracs. She’s been featured and sampled in numerous songs – […]

I’m not really old enough to say this, but I’m going to anyways – pop music isn’t what it once was. With the wave of electronic pop out there, it’s easy to forget that singer/songwriters still exist in today’s music. Hopefully, us music listeners will go back to basics and remember that a piano and […]

Years ago, I was flipping between the two MTV shows that were on. I don’t remember what was on the first one, but MTV2 had The Mars Volta’s music video for “The Widow” (off of their 2005 album Frances the Mute) playing. To this day, it is the only music video that legitimately scared me. […]

A child crawls out of the forest, looking for help that will never come. Instead he is skewered and beaten to death. Because he didn’t have the conch. Yep, that’s how Lord of the Flies worked. Ok, so maybe not, but this was still a rather gruesome thing to read even as a high schooler. […]

The word monster makes me think of the three things. First, of dancing along to the monster mash as my classmates and I scampered around the Halloween themed obstacle course constructed out of mats, ropes, and scooters in my elementary school gym. The day when the gym lights were turned off, ghoulish music blasted, and […]

There are two ways I can approach writing this introductory paragraph for Odd Future, the most controversial rap collective since N.W.A.. One, I can fly my Wolf Gang flag in the air and say that their new album, The OF Tape, Vol. 2 is the best thing ever, or I can be like a lot […]

As my personal evolution into the alternative scene continued to expand over my teenage years, I happened to find a small little movie called Garden State. In this movie, Sam (played by Natalie Portman) hands over her headphones to Andrew (played by Zac Braff), and tells him that “this song will change your life.” The […]
