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.
We featured Troy’s “Song Man” back in May. Now Troy is sharing with us his latest single “Cover Me”. Once again Troy smashes it with this great rock influenced single. “Cover Me” doesn’t hit you in the face like you would expect if I told you this was a rock single. This single has some soul mixed in with a nicely blended story based rock single that gets introspective. Enjoy Troy’s “Cover Me” through SoundCloud – Richard:
Have you been keeping up with Sarah J. Maas’ a Throne of Glass series. The next book, Empire of Storms, is scheduled for a September release date. Thanks to Bloomsbury Publishing’s YouTube channel for this quick trailer:
Big Gigantic is sharing with the ComicPop listeners “All of Me”, the title track for their recently released EP All of Me. This single features Rozes, whom we have spotlighted before, and Logic. We have that electronica feel from the very start that plays throughout the single. Logic’s rapping is spot on and Rozes chorus flows through the music. If you listen closely to the back ground sounds there are some sounds that Big Gigantic puts in that is very reminiscent of old school video game sounds, especially at the end it really comes through. Very nice collaboration with everything mixing well. Check out Big Gigantic’s “All of Me” featuring Logic and Rozes through SoundCloud – Richard:
I thought I had posted this trailer, but I guess I didn’t. Wonder Woman is another DC film that I can’t wait to see next year. Thanks to MovieClips Trailers for the trailer that was debuted at ComicCon:
As many of you know we here at ComicPop don’t shy away from foreign entertainment. This is the case with Cristina Lizzul’s music video for her cover of “La Notte”. With the combination with the instrumentals and Cristina’s voice makes this single play as smooth as silk. I could be completely wrong with my interpretation since I don’t speak the language, but “La Notte’ has a very sensual feel to it. Cristina has a very beautiful voice and I would love to hear what it would sound in different genres. She is currently working on her first EP entitled Percipience and has worked as an actor in four independent films, in 2015, (Righteousness, Subject 0: Shattered Memories, Lemonheads, and La Prigione Oscura) and has another upcoming project in the works in association with Francis Ford Coppola. Keep an eye out for Cristina Lizzul to continue making splashes in the entertainment field, but until then enjoy her music video of her cover of “La Notte” on her YouTube channel – Richard:
I can’t believe it’s been almost 20 years since the Blair Witch Project hit the theaters. This year we see what looks to be a direct sequel to the movie in this year’s Blair Witch. It looks better than the second Blair Witch movie anyway. Here’s the trailer through Lionsgate Movies YouTube channel:
JUNE dARK is delivering with “Phoenix”. June has a very solid/strong voice that comes through beautifully. “Phoenix” has a rock/ballad feel with a little bit of Eletronica thrown in. This single just has a fullness to it that sometimes is missing between the instrumentals and the singer, but June’s voice is strong enough that it isn’t lost it compliments the music. Very well done can’t wait to hear more from her. Here’s JUNE dARK’s “Phoenix” through SoundCloud – Richard:
Laughing Under The Clouds is now available from FUNimation for you to add to your anime collections. Thanks to FUNimation’s YouTube channel for the trailer:
Benta is sharing with the ComicPop listeners his music video for his single “Lover in Dark”. This from the beginning is an Electronica influenced piece. The steady beat is close to being over used, but the rest of the piece brings the song together and makes it a great sexy dance tune. It’s slow dance time, on the dance floor, with your partner. The music video will take you by surprise if you are not ready for it, I thought maybe my sound wasn’t working, but then about 18 seconds in the music starts. The video works will in the black & white medium…it gives it an even sexier feel. Here is Benta’s “Lover in Dark” through his YouTube channel – Richard:
Justice League Dark looks like another cool animated feature from Warner Bros. Animation. The trailer that is provided by FabianPohl Trailers YouTube channel is a rough edit that features drawing board scenes as well as actual animated scenes:
