Week 60: Gorillaz (Demon Days)I know. This post should have come a long, long time ago. In fact, I should have featured Gorillaz last week (or last year, first post!) since the theme pertained to bands whose albums are rather huge but have not been listened to by the widespread audiences they deserve. To me a widespread audience is every able-eared person haha! So it’s finally here. It’s Demon Day(s) and I could not be more excited to highly encourage those of you who haven’t listened to this album to do it immediately. Disclaimer: you will not be disappointed!

Kurt Russel and Sacha Baron Cohen bail from ..Tarantino's past films have made actors and been made by them. So it must be immensely frustrating for him when his first choice castings go wayward; and it's probably not in the audience's best interests either. Indeed, Kurt Russell is now the second actor to have bailed on the role of Ace Woody, originally having taken on Kevin Costner's mantle. No statement from Russell has been released on the matter! Ace Woody is one of the film's many villains (or in true Tarantino style, will they be more nuanced anti-heroes?), a cold-blooded slaver who pits ...The 40510 May 2012

Stream: Bobby Womack"If you tell the truth, truth never go out of style." Those are the fine words of soul legend Bobby Womack straight from his documentary that gives a behind the scenes look at what the process of creating his (drum roll please) 27th studio album The Bravest Man In The Universe was. He admits that he felt insecure about making music again, but producers Damon Albarn and Richard Russel assured him that he still had it in him.

Review: 'Snow On Tha Bluff' A Refreshing, Un ..A jolt of, uh, dope into the veins of the micro-indie/found footage scene, “Snow On Tha Bluff” is a wildly kinetic tour through one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in the United States; an endlessly entertaining and captivating portrait of a “robbery boy” and crack dealer. Filmmaker Damon Russel completely disappears, letting subject Curtis Snow carry the entire film, resulting in gritty, authentic document of the culture and lifestyle in Atlanta’s favorite little quarters. Starting with an audience surrogate of sorts, a group of nervous college kids head to the Bluff (a crime ridden area in Atlanta) in ...:: The Playlist ::20 April 2012

The B List: Earl Scruggs (R.I.P.) In Action ..Yesterday we lost a musical legend and a fearless pioneer who was never afraid to collaborate with anyone he thought he could make good music with, regardless of what the country music establishment thought. In doing so, Earl Scruggs , who was 88 , helped introduce bluegrass to legions of music fans over three different generations from a wide range of backgrounds. For this week’s B List, we pay tribute to Scruggs by presenting 10 outstanding clips of Earl doing what he does best – three-finger picking his beloved banjo. 1. Scruggs and a ridiculous ensemble of musicians including Steve Martin, Albert ...Hidden Track30 March 2012
