Gazing into an Adolescent Void: Super Dark Times
If I were to just see the poster of teenage boys on bicycles and hear the title of Super Dark Times, I would likely write it off just as quickly, thinking it to be nothing more than a trite Stranger Things wannabe, catering to our nostalgia of your childhoods and of a different decade (in this case the 1990s).

The Sound of Scars is an incredibly emotional documentary. The story behind the band, Life of Agony, The Sound of Scars details the trauma, the heartache, the tragedy and the triumph that created this legendary heavy metal band. I’d never heard of Life of Agony before this documentary, it’s not my kind of music, but after seeing The Sound of Scars, you can count me in as a fan.

Documentary Review: 'Song for Cesar' Documents the Music of a Movement
From pain, anguish, and strife often comes the greatest works of art. This has been true throughout civilization but in certain areas, it was crystalized. Flashpoints of great pain and suffering are marked in human history by great works of art and a strong example of that comes in the art that was born from the fields of toil in California in the 1940s to the 1960s and 1970s, much of it inspired by a man named Cesar Chavez.

Documentary Review: 'Poly Styrene: I Am A Cliche'
If you aren’t a fan of the British punk rock wave of the late 70s and early 1980s then you may not be aware of the trailblazer known as Poly Styrene. Poly Styrene was the rebellious and distinctive voice of the punk band X-Ray Spex. The band is arguably best known for being banned by the BBC over their song “Oh Bondage, Up Yours,” an anti-authority, anti-patriarchy punk anthem that became a big hit in spite of and because of the BBC ban.

Documentary Review: 'Charli XCX: Alone Together' Chronicles the Bond of Artist and Fan
I love fandoms. I love dedicated groups of people who take to an artist and their art and become a community. It’s an online phenomenon that did not exist when I was young and part of various fandoms. I am still a fan of many different artists and their work but I’ve never been part of a fandom and I envy those who have that connection and are able to share their love of pop ephemera with other like-minded people. I’m happy when I see a group of people who get along and are able to find a space to share their dedication to something.

Review of 'Les Bicyclettes de Belsize'
As I mentioned on Twitter, Facebook, and all the usual places, I just added Engelbert Humperdinck's "Les Bicyclettes de Belsize," his 1968 hit record which I always loved -- and thought I loved more than I should have -- to my Science Fiction and Fantasy Songs playlist on Spotify, as you can see below. It's the 16th song on the list, but they're not in any kind of ranking. "Les Bicyclettes de Belsize" just seemed to go well with "Over the Rainbow," at #15. Both after all are fantasy songs, both come from motion pictures with fantasy narratives, and both motion pictures are musicals.

Documentary Review: 'Jagged' is a Nostalgic Remembrance of Alanis Morrissette
On November 25th, 1995, I was 19 years old and I was in the audience at the Adler Theater in Davenport, Iowa to see Alanis Morrissette on one of the dates from her Jagged Little Pill tour. This isn’t clout chasing on my part, Alanis was, by this point in her career, even being only 21 years old herself, already one of the biggest stars in the world. By November of 1995, You Oughtta Know had already rocketed Alanis to superstar status by the time she brought the Jagged Little Pill tour to Davenport, Iowa.

Top 11 Songs From ‘The Many Saints of Newark’
“I listen to a lot of music all the time… A lot of these things are dredged up from memory. I’ll go, ‘Oh, that was a really good song.’ Or I’ve kept this catalog in my head of so-and-so I’ve always wanted to use. And then a movie situation will come up in which they fit very well.” – David Chase, writer and producer of The Sopranos
