    Latest track from Marissa Nadler, whose sixth album lands next week. Love the gentler folk sound.

    Poor Joe, the first significant permanent signing he made turned out to be his P45.

    As promised via assorted Vine and Instagram teases, the 25 Empire Magazine covers have been revealed (to rather mixed reactions from fans, it would seem). I wonder what that bloke in the 12th pic's superpower will be?
  5. Hello, good evening and welcome!

    Looking forward to the debut album by this lot. Love child of Lush, Ride and My Bloody Valentine via Dresden, San Diego, Alberta and, erm, Leicester.

    Great stuff. I've never seen the band dressed so casually.
  10. I like the fact that they've used the 'Captain America' logo to hide the fact that she's not standing on anything.
  11. They seem to have done a pretty decent job of keeping his face obscured thus far, though anyone with so much as a cursory knowledge of the story would probably already know it was him. He also looks bizarrely like Jared Leto when he's in his Winter Soldier getup, which is odd because he looks nothing like him in real life. Whenever I see him in the trailers, I feel like I'm watching a pretentious eight-minute alt-pop music video instead.
  12. Looking great so far, I like the quick glimpses of Falcon. As a longstanding fan of the character, I'll be keeping a good eye on his exploits in the movie. His backstory in the comics is a bit (how can I put this politely?) crap, but he's widely considered to be the first mainstream African-American superhero.
  13. All part of the fun, and a sign of how good Marvel has been at planning ahead thus far. Yeah, there were a lot of people speculating that Thanos would be the next villain, but many also thought it was a tease to a third 'Avengers' movie. It’s confirmed that he’ll have a greatly expanded role in 'Guardians of the Galaxy', which supposedly isn’t going to tie in with 'Age of Ultron', but they could still quite easily weave one (or more) of the infinity gems into 'Guardians' or 'Ultron', and set up an even larger motivation for Thanos to appear on Earth.

    RIP Philip. Truly one of the greats.
  15. I'm assuming Snyder asked for Heisenberg and someone at Warners misheard him.

    Beaten Newcastle three times in a row, annoyed Stoke City twice in a week. My career as a football fan may have peaked!

    A few highlights from the recent piece in Empire Magazine, placed in spoiler tags as a precaution. The jist of the article appears to be that everyone involved basically thinks 'Last Stand' and 'Origins' were terrible...

    Looks as if they've taken Quicksilver's name a tad literally, although to be fair, no one in the photo is in full costume.

    ^ Here's another new one from the forthcoming St. Vincent album. The subtle head movements freak me out slightly.

    Dum Dum Girls go second wave goth.

    Chvrches cover Bauhaus's 'Bela Lugosi's Dead' in candy coated fashion.

    Here's the new one from Beck. How on Earth can it be six years since his last album?
