On April 16th, DC Entertainment and NetherRealm Studios (the legends behind Mortal Kombat ) will release Injustice: Gods Among Us , an innovative new fighting game that pits DC Comics' heroes and villains against each other in an original story that blurs the line between good and evil.

Last year's Orchard-IODAmerger brought a veritable treasure trove of great new music into our system. We've had the very pleasurable opportunity to do a fair bit of exploration over the last 13 months and thought we might share a cross section of highlights.

Matt Skiba has likened his bands latest record to an apology note set to music, but when I say this is a return to form for Alkaline Trio you better believe it. After trying a little too hard to appease the braying masses last time out, My Shame Is True feels like the record fans of the Chicago three-piece have been waiting for. The, Ramones-influenced, She Lied To The FBI opens up the record in style. Its simple chord progression, catchy chorus and poppy melody rid me of any doubts I may have had and each track that [...]]]> text/html 2013-02-25T14:51:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4799187/orion-music-more-festival-2013-metallica-red-hot/

It's only about a year late, but Occupy Wall Street finally has a candidate for that anthem old media Baby Boomers spent last fall demanding . (No, sorry, the Third Eye Blind one still doesn't count.) Tom Morello has joined forces with Rise Against's Tim McIrath and Serj Tankian from System of a Down to record "We Are the 99%." The track combines power riffs that will be very familiar to Rage Against the Machine fans, lyrical calls to action ("We were asleep before, but not anymore, so fight back"), and those odd quasi-cabaret interludes of which [...]]]> text/html 2012-09-21T15:00:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4520960/last-night-the-gaslight-anthem-rise-against-and-hot-water/

THE FACEOFF The Dark Knight Rises opened at midnight, and its an all-but-guaranteed blockbuster.
