Subversive Shrink: The Power of Subversive Dialogues
Dear Subversive Shrink, I have a family member who is quite patriarchal in an almost WASP sort of way, and I’m seeking to reevaluate how to respond to their expressions of their ideologies, with which I disagree. On one hand, many years ago, I was inspired when Jello Biafra advised to simply talk to somebody

27 Club Performer: Loke
I find it interesting that so many iconic artists are so powerful onstage and then off stage, shy and semi insecure. I love that some people communicate better through an instrument or paint, or whatever medium. I think that in regards to Jimi, this aspect made him so humble. … read more

Review: Chairlift – Moth
My first introduction to Chairlift was to their single, “I Belong in Your Arms,” off their 2012 release Something. The simplistic message and the catchy chorus was what drew me into Chairlift initially, and the dark, almost 80’s inspired electronics in some tracks held my interest. … read more

Review: The Finest Hours
Among the many film divisions under the Disney umbrella—including Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar, The Muppets and Disney Animation—one you can be certain to witness every year that attempts to tug on the heartstrings: the inspirational, live-action, true-story project.
