All good things must come to an end. As cliché as that may sound, truer words have never been spoken. Often time long running events overstay their welcome and eventually become a shadow of their former self. Now, although many old school Warped Tour fans would like to say the tour was well past […]

We Will Stand Up In the Cold: Greta Van Fleet at Rams Head Live in Baltimore, MD
Rock ‘n’ Roll music as a whole has been in a bit of a lull over the past few years, at least in the mainstream. Indie and pop rock had become the music of choice of most young adults, and rock radio itself has been filled with manufactured “jock rock” bands that all sound 100% […]
They Came from Crabtown: A Review of Bumpin’ Uglies’ “Beast From The East”
Not enough people in the world appreciate the state of Maryland. I mean, think about it, in such a small radius we’ve got large cities, great beaches, and glorious mountains. Honestly, this little state has anything you could really want. We are highly underrated. We’ve got delicious blue crabs, plus the greatest seasoning known to […]
Adam Rifkin’s ‘The Last Movie Star’ Showcases Burt Reynolds At His Best!
“The Last Movie Star” is a smart, fresh take on stardom that left me nostalgic for the era of classic Hollywood. Reynolds’ Vic Edwards represents a pedigree of Hollywood that has long since faded with the popularity of reality stars and internet flash in the pans. A Hollywood fixture for decades, Reynolds’ translates his ups […]
Wilmington, Rock City: A Night with Less Than Jake!
What’s that? A show in Delaware? I’m sure it’s just some pop country act or a novelty one-hit wonder band. No? It’s a lineup filled with a few of the best acts in the current punk/pop punk scene? Get right out of town! Alright, cheesy intro over. Delaware jokes never get old though. Listen, I’m […]
‘Sadomasochists From Hell: 50 Shades Of Eww’ – The Best Sex Of The Hellraiser Franchise
Our resident deviant J-Mo is back with another titillating feature as he journeys into the deeps of Hell’s Labyrinth for a sampling of the best “beast with two backs” sessions of the ‘Hellraiser’ franchise. Just in time for Valentine’s Day, no less. That’s right folks, he’s counting down the top scenes to, um, “enjoy,” whether […]
BACK TO THE SWAMP: A Review of Adam Green’s “Victor Crowley”
The year is 2006. The horror genre is being beaten down with nothing but uninspired sequels, prequels, and remakes. The original slasher film has all but died. Something seems to be missing from the genre. Where’s the fun? In comes a young, up and coming director Adam Green 6 years removed from his last film, […]
A Trip Down Memory Lane: Icon Vs. Icon’s Top Films of 2017
Hey, check it out, another “Top Films Of 2017” list! As I’m sure you’re sick of reading these, I decided to change things up a bit. First, “Get Out” is not on this list! I love “Get Out”, everyone does. I’ve been talking about this film since February and I’m sick of talking about it! […]
SOUNDS OF THE SEASON: Five Unconventional Albums To Usher In The Holidays!
It’s that time of the year once again! Even for someone who has been in the Christmas spirit since October, the big day creeps up faster every single year. No matter how many traditions you try to squeeze in, there never seems to be enough time, no matter how early you start. Thankfully one of […]
