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.
Bandai Namco Games is streaming a trailer of their upcoming Japanese release of Godzilla, for the PlayStation 3. In the game Godzilla will battle some of his fellow creatures: Mecha Godzilla; King Ghidorah; and Mothra. I would expect that at some point this game will be available in the North American market, but as of now it is only in Japan. So unless you have a PlayStation 3 from that region, you’ll have to be patient. Check out the trailer below:
What is today’s bands deal with old, trippy sounding vocals? I was hooked from the very beginning of ‘Marooned’ and was taken out of it by the vocals. The electro feel they have going on is awesome and makes me instantly start to move. The voice treatment is what stops me from enjoying this song as much as I want to. I’ve run across this problem a lot over my time reviewing music and I wish it would just stop. Adventure Galley is an awesome name and the group has amazing potential if they would just fix that one little bit.

This is were different people like different things. I guess I’m one of those old timers 🙂 that likes this sound. Like April said the beat gets you moving and for me the vocals remind me of some of the bands in my day. The one that comes to mind mostly is The Cars and their style. I also love the music video with the 1950’s SciFi Movie feel, right up my alley. Two differing opinions, which is great that’s what makes all of this interesting. – Richard

The Cabana Kids. Where do I start? I just can’t tell if I like this group or not. The instrumentals are beautiful and Give me an earthy, boho feeling. The vocals on the other hand sound a little flat in comparison, instead of floating on top of the music I thought the vocals were pulling it down at times. The lyrics are there and I can tell the vocalists have talent, I think the biggest problem is whatever treatment they’re using in their voices to get the particular sound you’ll hear. If they can fix that part they’ll have a group that’s 100x better, and they’re already good so can you imagine how great they’ll sound? I can, and it’s pretty sweet.

Pravada is now officially on my playlist. I loved there fast pace and the gritty effect the electric guitars gave it. I got a humongous Jack White feeling from Pravada and you know that’s always a good thing. You can hear the emotion and really see that Pravada believe in what their playing about. Usually I don’t take to well to music that sounds like its been haphazardly thrown together but in Pravda’s case they make it work wonderfully. The video was also pretty good and I didn’t see anything wrong nor particularly good with it. Pravda definitely has a good start and can only go up from here.
