Album Review: Attic Ted – “Kafka Dreaming”
Kafka Dreaming is a love letter to the possibilities of defining one's own boundaries over succumbing to expectations; even if those expectations are self-imposed. This album is a testament of the distance covered and growth felt on their journey.
Video Premier: Pelican Johnny – “Givin’ Up On You”
Shot straight to tape by Andy Gately, the new video for Pelican Johnny's "Givin' Up On You" is a visceral slice of hot n ready nineties reverence. The single itself is a solid balance between the sounds he often finds himself swaying between making it as good of song as any at allowing those new...
Justin Waters Takes On the 2020 Oscars
Are we so limited that we cannot simply love two separate movies? Sometimes I feel like watching The Godfather. Sometimes I feel like watching Predator. Oh, one of them has an Oscar? Guess I am the idiot for finding both great in their own way. Thank god someone was there to tell me which was...
New Music Video: The Sun Machine – “Drugs”
"Drugs" from their upcoming Schizo Pop, is resigned in all the good ways. A vibe over dance massaging of the same nerves as "Higher" from The Memories. This fitting lighthearted video was directed by Chandler Jowell.
Artist Spotlight: Mel Stringer
Mel Stringer creates a little bit of everything. All of it is the absolute cutest!!!!
Film Review: Color Out of Space
Color Out of Space is as much the defining statement of progression in the sci-fi realm as it is a nostalgic walk through the greatest moments of eighties horror. After thirty years of near-silence, Richard Stanley returns to the screen with a brave, bold, risk of a film which is nothing short of genius. Not...
Mixtape Monday: Bearclaw’s Stash by Alex Barclay
This week we asked Alex Barclay of Texas Psychedelia to put together the mixtape. Those of you unfamiliar; Texas Psychedelia began as a communal space online for those in this corner of the world to dig the shared taste in music and culture of a certain vibe. It has quickly grown beyond that becoming a...
Artist Spotlight: Cassandra Ross
Few artists speaking through the dialogue of print manage to grasp the enigmatic magnetism attracting us to the soul of that which we love. Cassandra Ross (aka The Electric Sister Scorpio) does just that, speaking to us personally of her uniqueness in the face of the evergrowing universality of the all yet bringing us together...
Music Video: Moron’s Morons – “Addicted to Homicide”
Without an official release date other than "out soon" from Slovenly Records, let us for the moment breathe once more the air of anticipation from this Michał Mitoraj directed video for "Addicted to Homicide." Things are looking big for scuzzy rock n roll this year; Moron's Morons and Slovenly Records in general look to be...
Masochistic Masterpieces: Rhinestone
"You'd have thought we all got together and decided how we could fastest ruin our careers." - Sylvester Stallone when asked about the film years later
Album Review: Schwein – Easy Does It
....a John Cale broken boldness sort of journey from open to close all swept over with a thousand hushed mystic ohms weaving the ride along. To break down the album track by track would be an injustice to its cohesive nature. Each song shakes hands with the next, peaks and valleys reflecting the same orgiastic...

Artist Spotlight: Anastasia Hexahedron – “The Mist”
Anastasia Hexahedron set to work on her latest series "The Mist" not with a concept in mind but by accident. Having studied through the night into the early morning she got up for a drink of water. Looking out of the window and seeing only an absolute nothingness as the heaviest of fogs covered her...
Video Premier: Crocodile Tears – “Tuned Out”
Crocodile Tears make date music for the blank generation, cruising music for the down and outs, and are about as safe as good rock n roll can get. If this were 1980 they would rule the world.
Film Review: Terminator: Dark Fate
REESE:
No you don’t get it Sarah! If it kills you it won’t know what to do. It’ll start a loveless marriage with a woman. It’ll get a job and move into the middle class. It’ll spend weekends drinking beer and watching TV. It’ll grow a conscience! It’s life will be boring Sarah! So very boring....

Album Review: Warish – Down In Flames

Film Review: Bong Joon-ho – “Memories of Murder”
Despite such dark and heavy overtones this film is hilarious. Joon-ho manages to combine the eastern filmmaking embrace of tonal inconsistency with classic western genres. Many have tried but none have been nearly as successful. On his second film, Bong Joon-ho created a masterpiece, staked his claim to a wonderfully unique vision.
Five Poems: Christopher Savage
One of the more exciting parts of putting together each print edition is getting to sort through the submissions in awe of the creatives we share our small section of the universe with. One of the more disappointing parts is having to narrow down those submissions to fit within the space limitations of a tangible...
Nick Allison and the Players Lounge – Album Release | Tour Dates
There was a time when this band would have been solid simply by making noise here beside us as a word of mouth, "have you heard them yet," experience. Their hushed confidence was born for it yet now they stand as one of the last buoys of hope, a reminder of what this town is...
Burnouts Burning Out of Denver: Fast Eddy – New Songs | Tour
Somewhere between the New York Dolls and Paul Collins' Beat runs the subconscious thread stitching these burnouts together with a fuel burning manifest destiny pushing Fast Eddy out of Denver as though Seger himself sent his late seventies spirit right across time and space to whisper the word GO into their anxious ears.
Film Review: Bong Joon-ho – “Barking Dogs Never Bite”
Bong Joon-ho walks a tightrope between hard hitting movies with a message and entertaining popcorn fare. His sensitivity for his characters and intelligence handles the former, his wildly creative filmmaking style takes care of the latter. It is this wonderful mix which makes him such a unique and powerful voice in modern cinema.

Film Review: Once Upon a Time…in Hollywood
Once Upon a Time...in Hollywood is a fantasy about how movies influence reality, which in turn influence movies, etc. etc. forming a pop culture circle– as we all know no one plumbs the hidden depths of pop culture quite like Tarantino.
Artist Spotlight: Derek Vaughan Nunez Strahan
"I have no idea what the hell I am doing. I’m just trying to document the things happening around me. I think life is wild and beautiful and super chaotic. I want to capture all of that somehow. I love life and I think that’s what I want my photos to say about me, that...

Our bodies exposed only in bursts of lightening-
Bound by forces of nature.
