Was That the First Sign of Oxygen Loss? |
Syriana - ***1/2
Ok, let's get a link up to the .pdf flowchart showing who's in the loop, who's thrown to the wolves, who stands to gain, and where the money's all going. It's only 1.2 GB, so it's no ... Posted by on Sun, 30 Jul 2006 18:44:00 GMT |
Where Might I Find White Eagle Feathers For Fletching? |
No stars for the track reviews -- this time you actually have to read this crap!
Kierra Sheard - This Is Me

You Just Move Laterally, Like the Insect You Are |
Naglfar - Sheol : ***
Pretty good death metal disc that could stand some more variation in the riffs used to propel the tunes, but a fun listen nonetheless. Abysmal Descent mixes up the tempos a bit a... Posted by on Wed, 28 Jun 2006 15:34:00 GMT |

I'll Be Your Controller, Yes. Is That a Problem? |

That Saves Us -- But Just For a Second |
A smattering of items tonight. First off, Peter Gabriel - Long Walk Home: ****. Gorgeous album full of lush soundscapes and driving rhythmic pieces -- a really stirring piece of work. Gabriel listener... Posted by on Fri, 12 May 2006 18:32:00 GMT |
For Decades, They Get a Little Psychic Tickle |
Sky High - *. Great, now I get to admit that I watched fucking Sky High of my own free will. I know it's a kid's movie, I know I'm not the target audience, but Jesus, look at Pixar or the Wallace and ... Posted by on Tue, 09 May 2006 19:39:00 GMT |
They've Travelled Through Time and To the Ends of the Universe |
Today's cinematic atrocity was The Marksman, a deliriously goofy war actioner starring Wesley Snipes. Crackingly bad dialogue, anemic set pieces and uniformly wooden performances made this a good bet... Posted by on Sat, 01 Apr 2006 19:38:00 GMT |
