2007-11-02 13:37 Get Reatarded In 2008
Zwei recht frische Interviews mit Jay Reatard enthüllen mal eben die umfangreichen Zukunftspläne des Herren, im einen geht's vor allem um Blood Visions und die Singles/EPs der letzten Tour: Are there any plans to rerelease that stuff In The Red is going to do a DVD/CD combo thing of a live set we did in Amsterdam. It's going to be like a 16-minute live DVD, and then all the singles and stuff on the CD. Das andere schaut mehr auf die neuen Veröffentlichungen: I’m doing this project with Matador R …

2007-11-01 08:44 "Matador" en Tokyo Game Show 2007
Si vimos un juego interesante en el Tokyo Game Show de hace un mes, fue este tal Matador que os presentamos aquí.

It's Irish-Trojan Week here at the Irish Trojan's Blog, and what better way to kick it off than by noting that today is the second anniversary of the greatest day in college football history I'll never forget October 15, 2005 -- and, specifically, the USC-Notre Dame epic that was the centerpiece of that madcap day of football mayhem -- as long as I live. If I ever go senile, it'll probably be one of the last things I remember: I might forget my own name, what year it is, and where the hell I am, …

2007-09-22 16:31 Hickman Breaks Kayfabe!
Though a lot of folks will never understand why, professional wrestling is one of the joys of my life. I won't bother trying to explain about the morality play nature of it, or the pleasure from being part of "the work," or the fact that, for my son and I, it's always filled the slot that baseball or other sports might for other fathers/sons. The simple fact is, either you "get" wrestling, or you don't, and never the twain shall meet. In my case, I like my wrestling as big and bold and goofy as …

2007-09-09 04:58 Nocturne Review
And another one bites the dust. 60 hours or so, and time and money well spent. First off: Nocturne is a mixed bag. Mostly good, but a few things needed work. I should point out that those very things were addressed in different ways in DDS, DS:RK, and DemiKids, mostly to good effect. So if you enjoyed one or more of the above (especially DDS), you should like Nocturne, as long as you're not totally unforgiving. Plot (most important thing): Dark and disturbing, as Megami Tensei is apt to be. Noct …

2007-09-06 13:00 Tales From the Road: Tibet, Xinjiang, Bangkok, Kenya
We all know the feeling. It comes in airport shuttles and on mountain passes, in subway cars and deep in tangled jungles. It comes from breaking out of routine and finding yourself some place new, where anything can happen. The feeling is a silly sort of glee, a giddy wave of adrenaline that tickles your stomach and crinkles the corners of your eyes and makes you want to yell and wave your arms and act like a fool. Of course, all travelers are fools of one sort or another. Who in their right min …

2007-09-04 13:00 8 Budget Travel Tips To Make Europe Cheap Again
Given my love of European travel, I fortunately had the chance of spending the last school year working and earning my salary in euros. For several months I had the luxury of forgetting about the stress of traveling in Europe with a weak dollar. A month ago however, when the European bank account had run its course, but my travel lust had not, I pulled out the American ATM Card and went to the bank. Life was great until I checked my account several days later when the only words I could get out …

2007-09-03 13:00 Interview: Matt Gross Talks Travel Writing On The Web
Matt Gross has my dream job. As the Frugal Traveler for the New York Times, one of the most prestigious newspapers in the world, Matt gets to travel across the country and around the globe and share his adventures with hundreds of thousands of readers. It's enough to make me green with envy. A few weeks ago I got Matt's attention by calling him my "nemesis" in an edition of Tales From the Road. Problem is, it turns out that Matt isn't just a great travel writer with an amazing job he's also a re …

2007-08-29 06:03 The Cave Singers: Seeds of Night
I've been pretty smitten with this single from the Cave Singers' forthcoming album Invitation Songs (out Sept. 25 on Matador ). In fact, I sent the link for the mp3 to a co-worker, who, much to my dismay, was not into it. She said she "didn't get it." I'm not sure what there is to get, really, other than it being a pretty gorgeous piece of indie folk and not in that sad/sappy sucker kind of way. Something compels me to invoke a Jayhawks comparison, though I'm not confident that's entirely accura …

2007-08-29 00:01 The Spark: Sometimes the Bull Gets You
Bugs Bunny gets the bull in the 1952 short Bully For Bugs Musical satirist Tom Lehrer once said of bullfighting, "There is surely nothing more beautiful in this world than the sight of a lone man facing single-handedly a half a ton of angry pot roast ." Unfortunately for Manuel Laureano Rodríguez Sánchez, better known as Manolete, he was facing the wrong pot roast on August 28, 1947. Considered the greatest bullfighter of all time, Manolete had actually retired from the bull ring, but was unable …

2007-08-28 13:00 Tales From the Road: Macau, California, Pakistan, Papau New Guinea, Italy
Travel can be a journey into the realms of fear and loathing, or a happy-go-lucky search for wildflowers. It can be an exploration of animosity, or a ride to the chapel on your wedding day. This week Tales of the Road explores a brutal jungle of hidden, festering horrors; a moral wasteland where blood-sucking fiends skulk in the shadows, a place so nightmarish that the author who explored its darkest corners is unwilling to identify himself. That's right...prepare to venture into the world of th …

Of course, the fact that I completely failed to remember it was happening should clue you in to the quality of the performers scheduled to appear at any of the five neighborhood venues. I decided to walk over and join the festivities at 6:30 so I could buy my pass and catch the first band I wanted …

The New Pornographers Challengers ( Matador ) Once in a while, you walk into a bar, and you order a martini. You know what a martini is, you've drank dozens of martinis in your life. Maybe you have a martini recipe you make at home and particularly love. Maybe you're even the sort of person who can say smart things about the differences in various gins. But, on occasion, you order a martini, and it's not just a martini, it's a very special martini. And, it's still just gin, vermouth and an olive …

The writer/director creates some interesting characters but doesn t take them to the places they need to go make the film dramatic or suspenseful. The film works well as a poignant black comedy, but I wish i …

There's also a new book out by Emily Martin, ethnographer and anthropologist, from Princeton Press, entitled Bipolar Expeditions.
