There’s much that I do like about this album, but it’s in the subtler, more restrained moments.

This comp, though far from comprehensive, focuses on a small slice of time from shoegazing’s heyday.

On Until He Finds Us, Timonium don’t re-write the Book of Slowcore so much as edit it subtly.

This single divorces the two sides of Broken Social Scene’s music and explores each in greater detail.

Azumi was a huge disappointment, almost a betrayal of sorts, because I know Kitamura is better than this.

If you thought these sorts of mind-blowing acrobatics could exist only in the Matrix, then “Ong-Bak” is bound to be an awe-inspiring eye-opener.

The messages and ideas that M conveys will never grow old as long as darkness exists in man’s heart.

Das Boot is a story of humanity struggling to retain dignity and honor while facing the horrors of war.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who wrote such doomed poetry in study hall, and it warms my heart to finally hear it put to such exquisite music.
