Stuck in the middle with you

Alliance for Maine's Future thinks the Maine Legislature needs more moderates.

Review: Fired Up!

Despite its Cheerleader Movie appearance, this is very much a Guy Movie
If you're a guy who's reluctant to view a neutered movie (and despite its Cheerleader Movie appearance, this is very much a Guy Movie), you might want to wait for the unrated DVD.

F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin

Monster mash
F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin is a Frankenstein's monster of a game, a stitched-together assemblage of parts from other, better games.

Loren Connors | The Curse of Midnight Mary

Family Vineyard (2009)
Recorded in 1981, The Curse of Midnight Mary illustrates one genesis story for Loren Connors's affected and distended interpretation of solo blues guitar. Like Robert Johnson.

Neko Case | Middle Cyclone

Anti (2009)
Middle Cyclone is Neko Case's most fearless and arresting record, ruthlessly composed and beautifully recorded.

Staubgold (2009)
Imagine the kind of free jazz that would have developed in an alternate universe where mainstream classical music was defined by Michael Nyman's soundtracks to Peter Greenaway movies.

Vice (2009)
These Atlanta-based garage-punk brats have figured out an effective way to distinguish themselves from the countless other bands working the same stylistic turf.
