The second album by these Philadelphia based melodic punk rockers brings us 11 new songs. Compared to the first album “What We re Missing”, this one brings improvement both musically and lyrically. This time the quintet worked with the producer Kyle Black(State Champs, Handguns, Hit The Lights) in creating a perfect bland of melodic punkrock and alternative rock. Now you will think, wtf this must sound like some soundtrack to Beverly Hills 90210 or Melrose Place, some shitty college rock stuff, but it aint like that at all. After the poweful album opener Let It Rain comes the first highlight of the album Come Undone. Vocalist Collin Walsh sounds more self sure than ever and combined with guest vocals, courtesy of Patty Walters makes a great and melodic anthem. The album is very emotional with songs like acoustic and piano themed Forever Yours and Mum which will make you swim in an endless lake of emotional turmoil. The album is very diverse and it is not boring in any moment. This album is a perfect soundtrack for sunny weekend afternoon and preparing yourself to go for some open air festival fun. I listened and reviewed it like that, and believe me, it was a joy! Top songs: Come Undone, Beautiful Things, Echoes(Carry On).
Ne pratim nogomet, odnosno znam pogledat neku tekmu ili neke rezultate, ali ne mogu se nazvati navijačem, ali ima jedna momčad čiji sam fan, a to je tim iz Formule 1 koji se zove McLaren. Kroz dobra vremena, kroz loša vremena kao što je ova sezona koja upravo traje gdje momčad ima mizerna dva boda na kontu, uvijek volim ovaj tim. Zato sam sa oduševljenjem dočekao da izađe ovaj dokumentarac o povijesti i osnivanju tima, trkačkoj karijeri osnivača Brucea McLarena, Novozelanđanina koji je iz ničeg izgradio tim i 40-ak godina držao rekord najmlađeg pobjednika utrke Formule 1. Kada je poginuo prilikom testiranja automobila imao je samo 32 godine. Film je dobar, emocionalan i ne gnjavi puno sa tehničkim dosadnjaštvima, tako da tehnički frikovi mogu zaobići ovo, a film mogu pogledati i oni koji nisu ljubitelji Formule 1, jer se radi o finom dokumentarcu.
JUST BEFORE DAWN(1981.)
Ovaj slasher horror je izašao u takozvano zlatno doba slasher horrora, odnosno rane 80-e, koje su iznjedrile prvi Petak 13., Terror Train, Happy Birthday To Me i mnoge druge klasike žanra. Radna je klasična, na početku nekakva dvojica šumskih trapera-kampera uđu u napuštenu kuću i jednog od njih masakrira nekakav retardirani inbred. Drugi uspije pobjeći, ali naleti na grupu sretnih kampera dečki i djevojaka koji idu na hepi trip u šumu. Naravno, on ih upozori nek ne idu, upozori ih i George Kennedy kao veterinar koji zna sve i živi blizu, ali oni svejedno odu. Naravno, nalete na grupicu odosno obitelj ludih retardiranih inbreda koji tamo žive i počnu ih naganjati po šumi i ubijati jedno po jedno….
Pošto je slasher meni uz found footage najdraži horror podžanr, sa uživanjem sam pogledao ovaj film, no puno je lošiji od nekih standarda žanra, killovi su bez previše krvi i gorea, sve prati neke zadane horror slasher standarde, ali loše. Jedina stvar koja valja su hihotajući inbred retardirani killeri koji su dobro napravljeni. Prvi i drugi film iz serijala Wrong Turn su puno pobrali od ovog filma i ako ih pogledate back to back shvatiti ćete odmah.
Mrzim većinu tzv mainstream moderne horror produkcije, a ovaj nije iznimka. Helen je bicikl kurirka koja doživi prometnu nesreću nakon koje doživljava čudne blackoute i događaju se krvava i nasilna ozlijeđivanja i ubojstva. Helen otkrije da u sebi nosi rudimentarnu sestru blizanku odnosno njene ostatke nakon što je umrla u maternici majke koju je prije 23 godine silovao neki dugokosi putnik namjernik kada je radila u motelu. U ovom filmu nema ničeg napetog, ničeg krvavog niti apsolutno ničeg što bi moglo uvjeriti mene kao dugogodišnjeg horror fanatika da je film dobar. Kraj je bezvezan kao i cijeli film, tako da možete gledati na fast forward ako vam se baš gleda. Smeće!
This is the newest fifth album by this Miskolc, Hungary based celtic Irish folk punk band that became pretty big in Europe and is becoming bigger and bigger every day due to hard work and persistence. The last album “Boullevard of…” did not have that something in itself that would make me remember it and listen to it again and again. This new album is much more melodic, energetic, diverse and I can tell you that it is a great record! What I love about this band is, they did not jump up the bandwagon and just played some shitty folk music as long as it can bring them some money. On the contrary, they mixed also some gypsy and ska and csardas/polka elements in their song and brought them a breath of Hungary and its native music. The album contains 15 songs, some faster and more uptempo, some more midtempo and balladic but it is a tour de force in melody, emotions and great musicianship. I am sure that this band is hell of a fun to see and hear live! Hope that I will be able to do that soon! I am not a fan of this kind of punk, but this band is awesome! Top songs: “Castaway”, “One Last Ale”, “Bound By Blood”
