‘The Beekeeper’ Review: Jason Statham’s sweet treat for action nerds

<p>Here’s an honest confession: I like David Ayer as a filmmaker and writer, even when he’s making studio dreck. Ayer, who came to prominence with the screenplays for U-571 and Training Day, has largely spent much of his career as a director cultivating a style described as “decaf S. Craig Zahler,”  where his more-audience palatable style pairs nicely with exploitation-adjacent subject matter. End of Watch and Fury are realer-than-real cinema, emphasizing the grime inherent to their settings, while works like […]</p>

Check out Chilton's new album!

Today, we are psyched to debut the new album by Chilton!Chilton's new self-titled album is fast, raw, ragged, and melodic. That is, it is right up your alley if you are reading it. We will add that songs like "mouth to Ear" have huge crushing riffs that could fit on a Mastodn album and "One More to Go" has the pop-pep of, dare we say, Green Day… and then it spins out into a freak circle pit smash. Pretty cool! This album is hard, but also nice. Speaking to Punknews about the track, the band's Josh Carothers said, ""Our new album carries with it the same essence as our 1st release “Little Birds”, Question ALL levels of information in order to be your own best authority. Personal life experience, hidden history, past life recall, heartbreak, the marketing of tragedies and more, ALL wrapped up in an aggressive, melodic, intricate, heart pounding package. Thanks for listening! Chilton, Loves you!" Chilton's new album is out TODAY and You can pick it up at Dead Broke Records right now! The band has two celebratory shows coming up: Saturday Jan 27th @Slash Run (Washington, DC) w/ the MostlyDead & Bloodstainedteeth; Sunday Jan 28th @ Bakers Falls (NYC) w/ "Cinema Cinema, and DAD… and you can hear the whole LP below, RIGHT NOW!

Kai Bosch reflects on a love no longer in bloom with hypnotic ‘Tulips’

<p>There’s shit weather in store for most of New England this weekend, which allows for more time spent indoors and alone with the headphones on. Sure to be pumping through more discerning earholes is “Tulips”, the hypnotic and gently propulsive new single from British alt-pop artist Kai Bosch, which hit the streams on Thursday (January 11). As was the case with casually dramatic October single “Bodybag,” Bosch’s heartfelt and heart-ached lyricisms are once again at the forefront, as his tales […]</p>
