Songs such as “Atlantis to Interzone” and “Forgotten Works” feature repetitious, heavily rhythmic sections and infectious dance beats provided by live guitar and drum work, all reminiscent of techno and rave. Yet on songs like “Golden Skans” and “As Above, So Below,” the band follows the tradition of melodic pop with their catchy “oohs?...

...Tokorozawa, a sleepy suburb 40 minutes west of Tokyo by train. Clad in a powder blue Lions jacket, with a Lions towel wrapped around his neck, Koike spends the entire game bobbing like a prizefighter in Seibu's official cheering section, where well-drilled fans in blue and white drum and sing personalized anthems every time a Lion comes to bat.

A general who had been in Walter Reed told Scales that "the barracks at Fort Stewart, at Fort Bragg, at Fort Drum and at Fort Polk are far, far worse than anything I saw at Building 18," where some Walter Reed outpatients lived amid squalor, rodents, mold and cockroaches. "The sense is that Walter Reed is the symptom of a far larger disease," Scales says. "Now that they've got all this...

...than just Bright Eyes with a dreamy foreign accent, Patrick Wolf brings a refreshing burst of talent and energy into today’s limping rock scene. With an impressively broad musicality, Wolf takes command of synths, guitars, pianos, and violins.
