- R.E.M.
- In the long series of R.E.M.'s evolution, this album (finally?) showcases their ability to capture on tape what had been happening in the live for years: heartfelt, sweat-filled performances that just
- Goldfrapp
On their latest CD, Supernature, Goldfrapp has put together a successful mix of 1980-era New Romanticism, German cabaret, and T. Rex glam that leaves you riveted even through the album's lulls. It's a great amalgam that sounds current without sounding at all dated.

Poe rocked my world with "Angry Johnny" (I want to kill you/I want to blow you/Away) and "Trigger Happy Jack" (Trigger Happy Jack/ You're gonna blow/But I'm gonna get off/Before you go), as powe
- Poe
Dropping like a bomb on some of the blah musical offerings of her contemporaries, Haunted was one of the best albums of 2000, obliterating the competition.

Home-brew iPhone Ad As Good As Apple’s
Thursday, June 14th, 2007 at 4:00 PM - by Jeff Gamet
Apple products tend to be good fodder for fan-based ads, and the iPhone is no exception. Alec Sutherland has put together an ad called iPhone New York that looks as professional as any Apple has produced for the combination iPod and smartphone.

Unlike Apple’s ads that show off iPhone features, Mr. Sutherland’s home-brew effort shows people around New York City talking about about the product. The people are from all walks of life speaking a wide variety of languages - so many languages, in fact, that most of the ad is subtitled.
Writing for Cult of Mac, Pete Mortensen called iPhone New York the "best fake ad for a real product I have ever seen," and added "I think Apple’s very demo-oriented ’Here’s what it can actually do’ campaign is perfect for the iPhone launch, but a treatment like this one could kill for a second phase. They should call Sutherland when the time comes."
