Switch it Up

Though my blog is primarily movie reviews, this week I considered a welcomed switch to the usual mold.


Lately I have been enveloped in the album "Hospice" created by the Brooklyn band "The Antlers."



The Antler began as the solo project of Peter Silberman, as he released two solo albums "Uprooted" and "In the Attic of the Universe" before forming a trio with Michael Lerner and Darby Cicci. Then the newly formed band self released "Hospice" before signing with French Kiss Records and having the album remastered.

"Hospice" is a concept album narrating the story of a man who is witnessing his lover dying of cancer in hospice. Both sad and beautiful, I recommend the album to everyone.

You can stream the album in it's full length on myspace
My favorite tracks: Two, Wake.

Enjoy

Cold Souls

Here's a movie to check out...if you love Paul Giamatti it's a must see.
I quite enjoyed the film.

The New Year

Ok, so I know it the 4th of January 010, but I wanted to look back at 09 and give you my "best of" picks. So without further ado, here they are:

Best movie of 2009: "An Education"

Not often will you discover a coming to age film told in the prospective of a woman, however this film greatly surprised me. I have always been a fan of Peter Sarsgaard, and the addition of the very likeable Carey Mulligan aided in my pick for this film. Based off of a memoir with the same title written by the British journalist Lynn Barber, this movie does not disappoint, it inspires. Check it out ASAP, well worth it.
The other movies I was contemplating choosing were: "Moon" and "Shrink," both very good movies, also worth the time.
