Music Review: Girl Talk - Night Ripper

| | Comments (0)

In today’s world of laptops, MP3’s and high-speed internet connections, mashups have become a very popular form of music. Girl Talk, the one man creation of Pittsburgh DJ Greg Gillis has used mashups to create one of the most talked about releases on music blogs, his third album on Illegal Art, Night Ripper.



Music Review: Oneida - Happy New Year

| | Comments (0)

With the release of Happy New Year I can say with unabashed certainty that I am a huge Oneida fan. Formed in 1997, this Brooklyn band sticks to no specific genre. They mix Rock, neo-psychedelia, stoner metal, and garage punk to create some great music.



DVD Review: Apocalypse Now - The Complete Dossier

| | Comments (0)

The new two-disc set of Francis Ford Coppola's classic film Apocalypse Now is rewarding and disappointing, comprehensive yet incomplete. No film fan's DVD collection is complete without one version of Apocalypse Now, and since The Complete Dossier contains both the theatrical release of the film and Apocalypse Now Redux in the same set along with several hours of special features, this is the perfect time to add the movie to your collection. However, anyone who is looking for the brilliant behind-the-scenes documentary, Hearts of Darkness, will be very disappointed to find the film missing from this set, rendering the Dossier feeling somewhat incomplete.
