In Only Four Words
You may recall this site that really needs no explanation. The Four Word Film Review may not have much to offer as far as critical insight, but that’s part of the pun. (*insert rim-shot sound fx here) Some reviews require evading, but others are ingeniously clever. Evade The Noise just recently became a fwiffer, their name for a four word film reviewer, so keep an eye out for us. Back to the...

The Classic Crime - The Silver Cord
Tooth and Nail Released: July 22, 2008 The only “classic crime” I can think of would be not purchasing this album when you’re next paycheck hits the bank. The Classic Crime has very much impressed me with their most recent release titled The Silver Cord. Other than repeating “the” too many times (“the” classic crime & “the” silver...

They actually “evade” great web-based films spotted by Portable Film Festival curators on a year round basis.

Check out Deas Vail for some awesome indie rock. They are a mix between Mute Math, Mae and Copeland. Don’t let the name of the band detour you because of fear of mispronouncing it. The band has a new EP coming out this month so get into them before it comes out.

From "The Format" To "Fun."
In an email post to his faithful followers, Nate Ruess—lead singer of the now disbanded The Format—announced today that he has started a new band aptly named Fun. In the quite lengthy email Nate explained that he couldn’t give up his passion for music (whew), which led to this new project with some old friends from times past.
How they managed to get the address...

David Crowder in H.D.
According to David Crowder’s blog, the band is releasing a live CD/DVD on August 19th of their Remedy tour. Here’s a link to the latest E-Card (and I thought E-Cards were “so early 2000’s”). Though I’m not sure how I feel about a live worship DVD, I can say that this will probably be well produced and sound amazing. So if you’re in the market for some...

The Big Kahuna: Work Ethics?
Lions Gate 1999 Who knew the number one topic of conversation at a business convention full of salesmen in Wichita, Kansas would be centered on Christ? Marketing reps aren’t even human, much less interested in religion. They’re just a machine programmed to steer a pitch to make a sale. At least that’s what most people would expect. The Big Kahuna takes a different approach to salesmen...
