Filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson has produced many moments that have brought cinephiles to tears. Whilst he is celebrated for his breathtaking visuals, each of his films are complete with emotional substance, instilling the sensory delights of his movies with a tangible essence. Whether this be Magnolia, There Will Be Blood or Inherent Vice, it is not difficult to find profound […]

You’d be lucky if about 17 people saw your photograph if it was taken in the early 19th century when the camera was invented by Joseph Nicéphore Niépce in 1816. Nowadays, however, you’d be pretty pissed off if your latest Instagram selfie didn’t reach 200 likes, with thousands of people casting their beady eyes over your latest […]

While we can appreciate the irony in a multi-millionaire Hollywood actor on the picket line complaining about being “unable to eat” or lamenting the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) rates of over $1,000 a day, there are still hundreds of thousands of people being exploited. Besides, any strikes favouring better employee protection and fairer pay get our support. […]

The opening riffs of ‘Marquee Moon’ by Television remain some of the most recognisable in the history of rock music. The addictively repetitive guitar leads into a ten-minute art punk masterpiece, complete with Tom Verlaine’s lyrical meditations on life’s hardships. ‘Marquee Moon’ is a sharp-angled odyssey through uncertainty and aimlessness, with Verlaine seemingly at a crossroads in […]

Ever since Reservoir Dogs ignited the film world in 1992, Quentin Tarantino has carved his name into the annals of cinema with the precision and depth of a Hattori Hanzō samurai sword. Borrowing liberally and shamelessly from film classics and obscure B-movie gems of a bygone era, as well as embellishing with his own distinct brand of post-modern storytelling, […]

The concept album is in revival. Why is this? Well, because vinyl is in revival. I remember all too well in the days of my youth uploading songs onto an iPod, with limited space and only a matter of time before an incoming phone call from an auntie wiped out the internet. You had to cull the […]

After teasing their new single, ‘Invisible Hand’, Crosses have announced their new album Goodnight, God Bless, I Love U, Delete, marking their first full-length release in nine years. The duo, consisting of Deftness’ Chino Moreno and Shaun Lopez, will be releasing a 15-song record due for release on October 13 via Warner Records. This follows their latest single […]

As Aerosmith began their career, the critics never gave them a shred of credit. Coming out around the time that the 1960s counterculture began turning a corner, major outlets often lambasted ‘The Bad Boys From Boston’ for being a pale imitation of The Rolling Stones, with Steven Tyler and Joe Perry cribbing from Mick Jagger and Keith […]

The musical synergy between Keith Richards and Tom Waits has been in effect for nearly 40 years. The pair didn’t work together until they were each established, with Richards having made his name in The Rolling Stones while Waits slogged through the singer-songwriter movement of the 1970s as a fish out of water.
