Rock On! This Week's Sound Bites...8/1/24

by Danny Coleman
published 2024-08-01

"It's a one-off thing; I'm not exaggerating, every weekend we are doing multiple shows and by the end of the year we'll probably wind up doing about 68 one-offs and plus we're doing a seven week tour that's 35 shows so we'll be right around 100 shows for the year.

We're working more than any band I know, I talk to other bands and they are like, man, you guys are awesome, you're killing it and I say, we're trying to, we're killin' something, hopefully not ourselves," laughed Everclear's main man Art Alexakis as he talked about their most recent release "Live at the Whisky A Go Go," the music industry and their upcoming August 8 show at Camden's Cooper River Park.

First Look Review - "Starve Acre"

by Eric Hillis, TheMovieWaffler.com
published 2024-07-31

The current crop of cinematic folk-horror hasn't yielded much of a harvest in terms of quality. Perhaps the 21st century just isn't a good fit for this sub-genre, which had its heyday (or hay day) in the '70s, particularly in Britain.
