| Faith No More: 20th Anniversary Of ‘Live At The Brixton Academy’ Posted: 03 Feb 2011 08:32 PM PST  Faith No More Live At The Brixton Academy UK | U.S. Recorded April 1990 Released February 4, 1991 (UK) With the help of MTV and its heavy rotation of the video for "Epic," Faith No More rose to prominence in the late 1980s. The band's third album, and first with its new lead singer Mike Patton, Real Thing was an instant classic and made heroes of its makers. Duly, the band took the album on tour into the early nineties and chose one show to record for a live album. February 4th marks the 20th anniversary of the Faith No More album Live At The Brixton Academy. Recorded at the famous venue in London, England, it is Faith No More's only official live album. And what an album it is. Lead singer Mike Patton is a brilliant performer. At first he seems as if he is not taking it seriously by putting on silly voices at times, but as always his delivery is stunning. He may throw in a quick riff on New Kids On The Block's "The Right Stuff" during "We Care A Lot," but he has a voice very, very few rock/metal performers can match (or whatever the hell genre Faith No More fits into, such is the band's mixture of influences and styles). On the track "The Real Thing" alone he exhibits such vulnerability, rage, and silliness, and easily switches between every type [...]      |
| Geek Art: Batman Infiltrates The ‘Star Wars’ Universe Posted: 03 Feb 2011 06:53 PM PST  This is pure awesomeness. What if Batman infiltrated the Star Wars universe? The characters and vehicles would look a little something like this -- check out the image above, created by graphic design student Lucas Lago . My favorite is definitely the Bat-Bat [...]      |
| Posted: 03 Feb 2011 04:14 PM PST  Motorhead's new album, The World Is Yours, comes out in the U.S. on February 8, 2011, while the band's frontman Lemmy Kilmister is the subject of the the recent documentary Lemmy: 49% Motherf**ker, 51% Son Of A Bitch, which will make its way to DVD and Blu-ray on February 15, 2011. On top of that, Motorhead is currently touring the U.S. and Canada in support of the new album, so after over rocking the world for 35 years, what's the band to do next? How about selling their own wine? And some Motorhead wine glasses to match [...]      |
| Geek Gear: Fantastic Four Meets Sesame Street In ‘The Sesame Six’ Posted: 03 Feb 2011 01:15 PM PST  The $9 t-shirt deal of the day over at Teefury today is the Fantastic Four - Sesame Street mash-up "The Sesame Six," by artist AJ Paglia. The sale at Teefury began at midnight EST (Thursday, February 3, 2011) and will continue for 24 hours from then, and once it's over, it's gone from the site for good. The design shows the Sesame Street characters as members of The Fantastic Four superhero team, with a background made to look like a FF comic book cover. The story title here is called "Attack Of The Grouch" and shows a Burt/Ernie hybrid stating "Our weapons are useless!" (against the attacking Grouch, of course) [...]      |

| New Image Of Bucky From ‘Captain America: The First Avenger’ Posted: 03 Feb 2011 08:42 AM PST  Marvel has released a new image from the forthcoming film Captain America: The First Avenger showing Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) and his sidekick Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) walking against a crowd of soldiers on a U.S. Army base. Whenever I hear the word "sidekick" mentioned within a superhero movie I immediately tense up and have horrible images of Joel Schumacher's Batman and Robin flash through my mind. Fortunately, having seen the war-hardened expression on Stan's face made me breathe a sigh of relief. It seems director Joe Johnston has taken care to see that Bucky has none of the campy, cartoonish stigma we've come to expect from sidekicks [...]      |
