You seem to think you know everything
But you don’t know why I cry
“Shit, man. I’m not going to kid you. I’d love for it to be received well. I can handle criticism, but I hate when some of those motherfuckers get mean and personal. It’s like people forget that there are actual human beings involved in making these things. Sometimes it’s important to hold a mirror up to people - not in a mean way, but just like, Hey, dude. Check that out. That’s how you look right now. Do you like how you look right now.”

LEMOLO. Everyone should hear about this band. I hope to God they blow up, simply cause they deserve to. They should be selling millions right now and filling up arenas. Everyone’s who’s looking for an alternative for Florence + The Machine has their prayers answered.
“The rhythm machine through the smoke and the screen
My head’s in the hills tonight”
Christina Aguilera tested the indie waters with the ill-fated Bionic project. The record is so infamous that it has a major cult following. In fact, the album is so polarizing it had Billboard and other music reviews/blogs name it as one of the best pop albums of that year. If you overlooked the album and you’re curious of its notoriety that you want to give the record a spin, most likely you’re in for a good surprise. How about a hilarious video for Sex for Breakfast to start things off?
God Bless America started off really promising. The first 20 mins of the film left me at the edge of my seat and even gave me some American History X nostalgia. But that’s about it really. Everything went downhill from there. Plagued by a sloppy plot, mediocre performance by its actors, even the ending is such a cringe worthy mess it’ll make you sick to the stomach. You would think that this film is such a contra, but it doesn’t really serves its purpose as a rebreather of all the crap you can watch in the movie house lately. To conclude, Dir. Bobcat Goldthwait tries too hard to make the movie so accessible and easy that the movie lost all its potential. Where the intention is fairly good, the execution is a little too pedestrian.

I’ll start off by saying that I never liked going to the province. Mainly because I hate long travels as nothing is more tiring than sitting your butt off for hours. The boredom being in a place you’re unfamiliar with, staying with people you don’t actually know, or even worse-you don’t even like, is a surely a close second.
The travel to Lucban is quite tiring. Len fell asleep. I fell asleep. Ikai must’ve been bored to death as the TV’s not getting a good reception so she rather plug her earphones & listen to Adele (again). I think it took us 4 hours to reach our destination. The place is new to me and I guess even Yahoo & Lee forgot some landmarks since Mommy Weng had to scream at the top of her lungs when she saw Francis, a signal for the vehicle to stop.(Btw, the inclusion of Yahoo to the trip is a pleasant surprise to Mommy Weng as she shrieked loudly at the sight of her). I really hate long trips, but I’m glad we got there safely.
I SAW STARS. “Hit So Hard” follows the journey of Patty Schemel, the openly gay drummer of Courtney Love’s seminal rock band ‘Hole.’ Looking forward to watch this one and also LCD Soundsystem’s Shut Up and Play the Hits.
