We are just having fun reviewing and discussing comic books, graphic novels, manga, anime/animation, music and movies that we have recently read, listened to or watched.
It’s been quite some time since I posted any AMVs. Every so often I will throw one in or just a music video from an artist I really enjoy. This time around I found an AMV on Xion the Dark’s YouTube channel where the song “Honey I’m Good” by Andy Grammer is used with a variety of anime mix. The song is fun and the AMV is fun so enjoy:
Calling all Whovians! Harper Design has a book for you in Doctor Who: The Whoniverse. This book looks to be a great looking coffee table book with some beautiful illustrations in it. Check out the trailer that shows some of the illustrations through Book Studio 16’s YouTube channel:
Rosebug is sharing with the ComicPop listeners their debut single, “I Am the One” from their album Worst Way. “I Am the One” has an ethereal feel to it. I can here shades of Enya and Cindi Lauper with a touch of psychedelic to boot. Rosebug is certainly playing to a niche market, but give them a listen and you might discover a new sound you enjoy. Here’s Rosebug’s “I Am the One” through SoundCloud – Richard:
Emma Watson is Belle in Disney’s live action Beauty and the Beast coming next year. The trailer, supplied from MovieClips Trailers YouTube channel, looks pretty good:
Balkan Beat Box is giving our listeners a look at the latest music video for their single “Chin Chin”. “Chin Chin” is from the trio’s fifth album, Shout It Out, and from the start it of the single you now that the band takes an international influence in the rhythm’s in this single. The beat has a light airy feel to it even though it is talking about the allure of material things and the music video carries over that theme. This style might not fit with some listeners, but stretch yourself and you might find you like what you hear. So check out Balkan Beat Box’s “Chin Chin” music video, from the band’s YouTube channel and look for their album on your digital vendor of choice – Richard:
Want a little horror in your life this weekend? Then you might want to check out Incarnate that starts on Friday. Thanks to MovieClips Trailers for the trailer:
Brett Ferguson is sharing with our listeners his single “Take You Home”, from his album Let Go. This single has a simplicity to it that makes it a very welcome change of pace to all the singles out there that are vying for attention. Brett has a nice solid voice and the harmony he has with the female vocals is on point. With this acoustic version Brett hearkens back to the folk singers from the 1970’s like James Taylor or even Simon & Garfunkel. Brett’s album Let Go is available now so check you digital vendors to pick it up. Until then enjoy Brett Ferguson’s “Take You Home” through SoundCloud – Richard:

The Pinkerton Raid is sharing with our listeners their single “Ghost in My Bed”. The band has a very early Americana feel to it. The sound of “Ghost in My Bed” has a little bit of tinny sound to it, which is why I say it has an early Americana feel to the single. The rhythm also has a light airy feel to it supplied by the keyboard. So take a listen to The Pinkerton Raid’s “Ghost in My Bed” from their upcoming 2017 album Tolerence Ends, Love Begins through SoundCloud – Richard:
