The rest - as some say - was almost history. Produced in Cologne, Germany, by Brian Eno on the recommendation - in part - of chums Bowie and Pop, " Q: Are We Not Men ? A: We Are Devo ", the resulting...

I don't know about you folks, but when I think of this dark Toronto rockabilly troubadour, the first thing that comes to mind is mixtapes. Oh, perhaps I should mention that I just listened to Slim's 2nd free mixtape Spit It Twig! Vol. 2 , because prior to now, I never would have thought anything of the sort when pondering Mr. Twig. So Slim Twig loves mixtapes, who knew? Perhaps not what one might...

In the '90s, I adored exactly three parts of Hollywood: alternative music flicks like Pump Up the Volume and Empire Records , Gregg Araki , and David Lynch. The first always bled into the other two, Araki partaking in the musical joys of bands like The Jesus & Mary Chain and New Order, and Badalamenti creating his own unique world of music. But now the other two are combining. Sort of. Remember...
To mark its 175th anniversary, the Royal Institute of British Architects is holding a season of films in which buildings – fantastical or factual – take a starring role.

I’m not going to put up photos for another day or two, but I’m taking shots daily, so maybe by tomorrow or Friday. In the meantime, if you got a few bucks kicking around, and can’t think of anything better to do with them than give ‘em to some sorta good cause, like maybe Movember? Of [...]
Photo: Sandboy. You almost never from a Lynch movie get the sense that the point is to “entertain” you, and never that the point is to get you to fork over money to see it. This is one of the unsettling things about a Lynch movie: You don’t feel like you’re entering into any of the [...]
