The Brown Note Movie Review

The live music festival is dying for a number of reasons, including the acts that are headlining, the now failing Coachella is both an embodiment of why and far far worse.

A retrospective of Tarantino's very different third film.

Amazingly, despite being a massive Shawshank fan, I had never seen The Green Mile before.

Arguably the most faultless three album opening run since Arcade Fire, hit a speed bump with the loss of Rostam, a core member and producer, resulting in the least well received album of their career, Father of the Bride and wonders whether the golden era was over. Only God is a dramatic return to form and will be an obvious contender for album of the year.

Two of the most prominent definers of modern commercial rap combine again, though this time for an album length project (already succeeded by a follow up) that is both a weak album and a crappy review as I was tormented by a wasp.

The venerable Uk indie-rock titans second comeback album, is sadly not as interesting as their first Anthems for Doomed Youth, but despite flirting perilously close with land-fill indie, has its more vital moments and it's still good to have them back.

Finally getting a wider release, debut director Andrew Cumming (who insanely uses a made up language on his first film) excels with a post cave-man horror, with an outstanding score and cinematography.

Director Matthew Vaughn seems to inhabit this middle ground between Guy Ritchie and Zack Snyder, for better or worse. As much of a fan of Bryce Dallas Howard and Sam Rockwell as I am (both excellent casting choices here) this post-Kingsmen spy caper, has all the hallmarks of Synder's over delivery and poor execution.

1. Beyoncé Is the most overrated recording artist this century, an average two bit hack put together in a laboratory and the blandest mass produced corporate product since the Big Mac 2. The only reason she recorded a modern pop country album, is her fragile, Princess Diana style ego, cannot handle Taylor Swift getting far more attention than she does

The underappreciated Shoe-gave titans third comeback album is by far the best. The most urgent, dynamic, cohesive, melodically memorable and impactful of their trio of post come-back releases and their best album since Going Blank Again.
