This might have been the saddest month of movie watching I’ve had in quite some time. Granted, I was doing a lot of fun things, but yikes. I’ve really got to pick it up the rest of the year!

The Used – Toxic Positivity, Album Review
All hail to the emo band from my youth! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen The Used over the years, but several of their records remain my favorites to this day. With that being said, a lot of their newer material hadn’t really made it into my radar until their latest, Toxic Positivity, was announced.
Read moreSonic Temple 2023
After undergoing a name change from Rock on the Range to Sonic Temple for the 2019 edition, the pandemic then decided to shut it down for the next three years! And let me tell you what, that 2020 lineup was fire. But anyways, it’s back and I couldn’t have been happier this extended holiday weekend.
Read moreBook Review: Tender is the Flesh by Agustina Bazterrica
Three books in now and I have to say that my friend has some really dark taste. And yes, I see the pun in that first sentence. It should make sense to you, too, if you’ve read Agustina Bazterrica’s acclaimed dystopian novel, Tender is the Flesh.
Read moreFan Art Friday: Sonic Temple Edition
Sonic Temple is back! So you get two drawings from the vault (also, I’ve been too lazy to finish anything recently). Can’t wait to see Queens of the Stone Age for the first time and Avatar for probably the sixth 🙂
Read moreGhost – Phantomime EP Review
I guess not all that long ago Ghost promised new music by the time they were set to head back to the EU for the second leg of their tour. Turns out that new music was an EP full of cover songs! I love a good cover song and I can assure you this is some good, good stuff.
Read moreWolf Pack Season 1 Review
You know, I’m surprised it took me this long to watch a new werewolf themed show by the same man who brought me Teen Wolf, but here we are. Wolf Pack left me hesitant after the first episode, but halfway through its eight episode run, I was hooked. Jeff Davis has got the touch.
Read moreBook Review: The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller
I first read Madeline Miller’s debut novel, The Song of Achilles, back in late 2019. I was immediately taken with it, but like most things I don’t usually revisit them so soon. A little while ago I found my gaze landing on my copy of the book more and more, but my trip to Greece last month finally convinced me I needed to read this epic romance again!
Read moreWeekend Movie Review – Strictly at Home Edition
Look, there are literally so many movies I want to see in theaters right now, but for some very frustrating reason they are not playing anywhere near me. While I would usually take the drive, the weather is finally turning here, and I just wanted some non-stressful stagnant time at my home for one weekend. I doubt it happens again at all this year, but because of that, you are getting some newly available movies that I got to enjoy from the comfort of my couch.
Read moreFan Art Friday: Empire of the Sun
I’m sure you had to know this was coming. When a person finally gets to see the band at the top of their concert wish list, you obviously have to post one of the two drawings you’ve done of them. I mean, I’m talking about me, but I don’t want anyone to feel left out. Anyways, I want to see them again, but for now I will revel in the memory of their stellar performance at Just Like Heaven.
