Viva Cuba

Screen Reviews

Two children run away from their mothers in Havana to save their budding romance; Carl F Gauze advises against an Amber Alert and recommends you settle in and watch this gorgeous near-travelogue through the Cuban countryside.

Chuck Ragan

Event Reviews

A fast departure from Brand New’s show at the House of Blues brought me to the much more laid back vibe at The Social for the Chuck Ragan gig. The Hot Water Music frontman was not the only famous frontman who decided to leave his band at home and go it alone for an acoustic evening. Jen Cray was in for a quadruple bill of talent!

Obituary: Frozen Alive

Screen Reviews

Bleuuuuuuurghroarrrr! Matthew Moyer is overjoyed to find Obituary just as primitive and bloodthirsty as when he first heard them, in this recent concert dvd. Change is overrated.

HIM

Event Reviews

Finland’s finest export, HIM, filled up Orlando’s Hard Rock Live with hordes of gothcentric metal fans… and Jen Cray.

Print Reviews

Carl F Gauze enjoys the short story Kate Schatz spins out of PJ Harvey’s monumental Rid Of Me album, the newest addition to the 33 1/3 line of books on classic albums.

She Wants Revenge

Event Reviews

RJ Bowen knows that She Wants Revenge is a dish best served cold at the Club@Firestone in Orlando. Wait, that makes no sense whatsoever…

Hiding Out

Print Reviews

Hiding Out reads like the clever New Yorker Magazine single-caption cartoon strips played out to their most poignant conclusions. S D Green delights in their mixture of the petty and profound. So should you.
