Words By Jason H., Raj It's a daunting task to enter the ring with the undefeated Floyd Mayweather, Jr.. But if anyone stands a chance of coming out with the [...]

Fighting is such an interesting topic. The sheer brutality of it already lends itself to high amounts of drama, but often more interesting are the people behind it. The fighters, the trainers, the families - all have multiple things (ego, health, reputation, pride) at stake with each fight. It's no coincidence that we've seen multiple features (Warrior, The Fighter) and multiple documentaries about the sport in the past few years. China Heavyweight is the follow up effort by Montreal documentary make Yung Chang whose last effort "Up The Yangtze" made him a critical darling. This [...]

And now three reasons to get shake it on over to the Burlington tonight... 1. Chicago's The Christmas Bride unleash short, concentrated bursts that integrate both punk and eloquent glam rock. Their music has a certain refinement to it as melodic but instantly catchy chorus are sung over chunky riffs and a rumbling but tight rhythm section. Fans of Art Brut or, to a certain extent, The Hives would be pleased. LISTEN: "NewHitMekanik" [...]

Ils s'appellent « ELL » : ils c'est Sébastien, Thibault et Thierry, et elle c'est Doriane. Ils sont de passage dans l'émission Azimut et nous présente leur premier album éponyme, un hydre à quatre têtes mais surtout aux huit chansons, teintées de folk [...]

Filmmaker Joshua Z Weinstein rediscovers boxer Kevin McBride, raising his children in a gritty Boston suburb. Kevinʼs body is deteriorating, yet he compulsively continues to fight. This lyrical film finds a boxer at the end of his career – engaging in the Sisyphean task that is his life. I BEAT MIKE TYSON - OFFICIAL TRAILER (PREMIERING AT HOT DOCS) from Weinstein Film [...]

In December 1970 Life Magazine photographer Bill Ray captured these funky fans on film, as well as famous faces in the crowd, such as Diana Ross, Jesse Jackson and Dustin Hoffman. That night Muhammad Ali was fighting Oscar Natalio Bonavena from Argentina, who had gained himself the nickname 'Ringo' because of his Beatles style haircut. Ali went on to win the fight, although the ending was controversial as Ali stood over Bonavena as he was trying to get up, rather than going to a neutral corner as the rules required. [...]

Mocht je toevallig nog 160 dollar (50 minder voor early birds trouwens) hebben liggen, dan weet Amon Tobin wel waar je dat goed aan kunt besteden: zijn boxset natuurlijk ! Met 6 plakken vinyl, 7 cd's en 2 dvd's krijg je nooit eerder uitgebracht en zeldzaam materiaal, plus de liveregistratie van de ISAM-concertreeks. Doen? Geen idee, want de kloeke verzamelaar verschijnt pas 21 mei op Ninja Tunes. De eerste beelden en geluiden klinken niettemin beloftevol. De promovideo (met de fameuze videoblokken van de ISAM-optredens) oogt gelikter dan een kuub vanille-ijs, terwijl de Lorn-interpretatie [...]

Y a-t-il des morts agréables? Difficile à dire avant d'y être passé, mais le groupe de la semaine a su trouver une manière apparemment séduisante de passer l'arme à gauche, puisque son nom est Death By Chocolate . Pour être honnête, ce n'est pas vraiment un souhait ou un plan d'avenir, mais simplement le nom d'un dessert chocolaté que le groupe a aperçu sur une carte de restaurant… Eh oui, l'origine des noms de groupes, ça démystifie toujours un peu les choses. Après plus de 140 concerts avec leur premier EP, incluant la [...]

We've been smitten with Glasgow's wonderful Admiral Fallow ever since we saw them supporting Frightened Rabbit at the back end of 2010, so we were delighted today when the band announced details of a comprehensive UK tour. It kicks off on April 22nd in Gourock and the busy schedule sees the band on the road for the whole of May. The tour is set to coincide with the release of the group's second album; the follow up to the frankly gorgeous Boots Met My Face. You can currently get your hands on Beetle in [...]

It's always an exciting, yet cautious experience when listening to a new labels debut record. There is also a hope that the label is going to be excellent and that they've signed the next big thing in their particular niche. However, nine times out of ten. That mentality leads to much disappointment and a truckload of shit music in your email. Luckily for me, Initials is exactly what I'd look for in a new label. Signing an unknown artist, with plenty of talent and taste. Combined with the experience of running several other successful labels, and some trippy [...]

Even though the LSU Tigers weren't able to win the National Championship, Baton Rouge's own Mouse on tha Track must have been cheering hard. His video for "All the Way Live" was full of LSU highlights, even if it wasn't quite as entertaining as this LSU Championship video (hat tip blackbeans.tumblr.com ). The first single for Mouse and his uniquely named partner Box's mixtape All Options Open makes perfect sense as the school's theme song, considering it opens with "I just want to be number 1, party with the girls, have fun". Once you've heard [...]
