The music world has lost another one. Sharon Lafaye Jones, energetic sister of soul and lead singer of Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings, has passed away after a prolonged battle with pancreatic cancer. She was 60 years old. First diagnosed in 2013, the singer underwent surgery and treatment, and returned to the road that same year.…
Brie Larson, Tom Hiddleston, Samuel L. Jackson, John C. Reilly and JOHN GOODMAN. It’s safe to say that I’d watch any movie with this cast. Hell, they could reboot Twilight or do another Josie and the Pussycats and if it had Larson and Goodman gracing the screen, I’d be IN. Unfortunately, this movie is another…
The iPhone game to end all iPhone games is almost here. Welcome to Mario’s first-ever foray into mobile territory. Ya-hoo! December 15, iPhone and iPad users can download Super Mario Run for just $9.99. Word on the street is you can try out some of the game’s elements for free, but come on, guys! You know it’s going…
Electric Eel Shock, the garage rock trio from Japan, have eight albums, which is kind-of, sort-of news to me. (In my defense, not all of them were released here in the States, or at least I haven’t found them!). The band hadn’t released anything since 2009 and I wrongly ASS-U-MED they were dead…until “Sweet 55”…
Here are some truths: -I have 5 Best Pictures left until I can say I’ve seen them all. -I’m tired. So very tired. -I shouldn’t have saved all of these 3+ hour movies for last. -I am a stupid dummy. Here are the last 3 I knocked out. I’m pleased to say the results were…
SNL delivered a somber cold open last night as Kate McKinnon took the stage–donned in her Hillary Clinton character–and performed an emotional rendition of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” (RIP). The opening actually bumped host Dave Chappelle’s monologue to minutes later…a move not often taken by the sketch comedy show. It’s been a tough week in America for many.…
…but I don’t feel fine. Look, this is a pop culture blog so I’m not going to get into the thick of it here. But I feel it bears mentioning that I’m extremely scared for the future of our country. We should be setting a good, progressive example for the rest of the world, yet…
When we think of holiday songs, Christmas usually takes the cake. That shit is entirely too joyous and happy for me though. STOP BEING SO MERRY. It’s suspicious. Like frog’s breath. Lately though, Halloween tunes have been stepping up their game. 30 Rock gave us the miraculous “Werewolf Bar Mitzvah,” and of course, A Nightmare Before Christmas delivered countless goodies at…
The Wolf Man. The Howling. Ginger Snaps. Dog Soldiers. In terms of werewolf horror, there are certainly some great flicks to choose from. But a recent rewatch of An American Werewolf in London has once again blown my mind and I’ve got to say: it’s bar none the best werewolf movie. Ever. The movie follows two…
A photo posted by The Littlest Winslow (@littlestwinslowblog) on Oct 7, 2016 at 2:12pm PDT Band of Skulls is one of the best contemporary rock bands we’ve got. They’re also one of the most underrated. So let’s not bury the lead here: the British trio’s live show is electric, booming, rousing. As the band doled…
