...life has in store for him, and it worries him sick. He seems prematurely 40, so that any teen trauma has the impact of a midlife crisis or some awful dream endlessly repeating itself. As Nick O'Leary in Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist, he's the theoretically cool bass player in a band playing a Manhattan club. Except that the band is called the Jerk Offs, the other two members are gay, their audience includes blasé members of Nick's New Jersey high school, and one of them is Tris (Alexis Dziena), the girl Nick has nakedly and mostly...
...Death Magnetic” is one of the most experimental, lush albums you’ll ever find that has anything to do with death metal. Even when the tempo grows intense and threatening, the sonic texture stretches back through layers and layers of guitar and bass, underscoring the vast canvas of Lars Ulrich’s drum set. Newcomer Robert Trujillo is the rare bassist who can keep up with both Ulrich’s punishing tempos and Kirk Hammett’s roaring guitar solos.

My mom and I looked out the windows and watched orange flames jump into the dark sky as Brennan's restaurant, a Houston institution, burned down...

Allan, his cousin Rab (guitar), Paul Donoghue (bass) and Caroline McKay (drums) hail from Dalmarnock, a gritty neighborhood where male life expectancy is just 58 years, almost two decades below the British average. The hardest gig, Allan says, was his first, in front of his mother. "Picking up a guitar in the first place was braver than any of the songs that I wrote," says Allan, a semiprofessional footballer until the band took off. "When you're a kid, drinking, playing football...
