Beat (1996) – Bowery Electric
[25-WR] Beating up song conventions, cutting their bowels open and re-animating curiosity within a single spark to start this nitrous techno-stoner highway-wagon ride. [25-WR]
👍 👍 👍 👍
Stara Cervisia Shankbier – German Beer
[25-WR] If you’re going to shank someone out of prison better do it with a knife instead—for this beer wrongs nobody but itself with shyness. [25-WR]
Union (2019) Ihlo
[25-WR] Big overarching melodies on stuttering djent-riffs under an ambient dystopian sky. Good nurturing soil for catchy songwriting. Left ambitiously curious for further dreaming sequences. [25-WR]
Adaptation (2002) – Spike Jonze
[25-WR] The identical twin gimmick works only when there’s excellence en-caged in an actor. Nicolas shines here exemplary carrying and saving an otherwise pretentious film. [25-WR]
Die Fabrik – baxpax Hotel – Berlin, Germany
[25-WR] Fantastically quiet and strategically decorated to retain as much of its original industrial charm as possible. Smart, respectful, self-governing staff that treasure it all. [25-WR]
The War of Art (2002) – Steven Pressfield
[25-WR] For the closet-slacker that keeps procrastinating to procrastinate. Serendipitous read for those who’ve had enough, but keep pussyfooting around looking in the fucking mirror. [25-WR]
Prequelle (2018) – Ghost
[25-WR] Satan grooves with his dancing shoes on this wild 80s-party. Prequelle comes with cool retro-riffs and catchy hooks on a groovy synth-carpet. [25-WR]
Pacific Brace Shiraz/Cabernet Sauvignon (Year?) – Red Wine
[25-WR] Laminated with ruby resolutions of grandeur, veiled with a screw-capped scrawny price…but don‘t be fooled: this is quality wine. Poor man’s daily Ambrosia. [25-WR]
Review (2014–2017) – Jeffrey Blitz
[25-WR] Much sexier but not ready to descend all the way down into hell like the Australian source material does. Still hilarious despite excessive self-referencing. [25-WR]
Small Time Crooks (2000) – Woody Allen
[25-WR] Starts out with the traditionally hilarious criminal incompetence of “Dog Day Afternoon” (1975) or “Welcome to Collinwood” (2002) continuing with an embroidered “The Jerk“ (1979). [25-WR]
