This week sees the release of the Raid, the heir apparent to the title of best action movie, that has the critics wetting themselves to prove how butch they are, and that […]
We don’t talk a whole lot about design on NMWH but this is a very cool and creative take on the medium of business cards by designer Silvio Teixeira. (Also, the music is by tUnE-yArDs so that’s always good with us).
I went to this exhibition months ago, and always meant to mention it as it blew me away, but for whatever reason I never got around to it. Now I see that […]
Miss Hersh is giving it away again! I’ve spent most of my lunch time listening to her new work, and it seems top drawer! There’s a very simple button on the top […]
Brilliant! Directed by James Winters. Worked on with his wife, kids and their nephew to pay tribute to Adam “MCA” Yauch.
From Tomas Barfod’s ‘Broken Glass’ EP. Director: MARTIN GARDE ABILDGAARD
Efterklang play two shows in Ireland, in collaboration wtih the Major Lift Orchestra (no, me neither) in Dublin and Cork. The one in Dublin is in Meeting House Square on the 14th […]
What are you doing on Wednesday night? Spacing? Watching the box? No, you’re not, you’ll be out on the streets of Dublin hearing the great and the good reading! Well, maybe some […]
So what’s new at the movies this week? I think it’s another week to explore the sights and sounds of the city, without actually going to the cinema. There’s still probably some […]
I went to this once before, to see ‘Eternal sunshine…’ and you guessed it! It was a wet night in Dublin, and a bit miserable, but if you come prepared for the […]
Some stories are just too odd. Yes, that’s right, if you’re from Dublin or Wicklow, watch out for Andre doing a Jimmy impersonation! Andre is starring in biopic of Jimmy, which is […]
If you’re too lazy to read the full interview with Kevin Shields here, I’ll give you a brief summary. He’s on song 8 of the new album There’s 9 songs on it […]
If the Walkmen’s 2009 album was called Lisbon, what should the new album be called? Stability? Sadly, it’s called Heaven, but I guess they have their reasons. They’re back in town on […]
The main reason I know The Bad Plus is due to their cover versions of indie classics such as Velouria by the Pixies and Karma Police by Radiohead. They’ve put their own […]
I think everyone was caught a little on the hop by this. While it was known that he had cancer for many years, he described it himself as ‘very treatable’ and I […]
With the recent New Multitudes record coming out (Jay Farrar and co.) and mining the writings of Woody Guthrie, it reminded me of another lovely set of songs based on Woody’s words, Mermaid Avenue, […]
A slow week at the movies, which is a pity with all the rain that has been around the last few weeks, it’s perfect cinema weather! Monsieur Lazhar is possibly the best […]
What’s the most obvious way to play Stalin, the dictator and malevolent ruler of the USSR? Well, as a lovable rascal of course! It is a curious choice and starting point for […]
The Dublin writers festival is up and running again, with their full programme announced, and tickets on sale for most events. It’s a decent line up, but possibly lacks a few big […]
What’s better than new good music? Well? Ok, it’s easy, new good free music! For the cost of only an email address you can download this tasty 7 track from Popical Island. […]
Whit Stillman is back in town. Yes, that’s right… go on… it’ll come back to you if you think about it hard enough. The director of some lovely indie gems from the […]
I’ve always thought I should like Ben Folds more than I actually do. I can’t quite put my finger on it, as he writes good music with interesting and quirky lyrics, and […]
‘How far would you go to get what you want’ – The House Keeper – Rough Magic I’d no idea what to expect from this play, but the name had certainly pushed […]
Body and Soul continue to get it just right, with a few new additions that are increasing the temptation. Spiritualized, Django Django and Hollie Cook are added to the list. Hollie is […]
This ticks a lot of boxes for me, so thought it was worth a mention. Geoff Barrow (Portishead) and Ben Salisbury (random soundtrack composer) have a new album inspired by Mega-city, the […]
I’ll let these guys speak for themselves: As soon as we had landed in London people started asking us about our band name. “What does ‘Bender’ mean to you?” people would ask. […]
‘Breathing’ looks the best bet on a slow week for new releases. It’s directed by Karl Markovics who you may remember from The Counterfeiters, from a few years ago. It tells the […]
Record store day is back, and with the declining number of stores around the city, they should be cherished like a new born! Well, maybe not, but it’s probably a nice way […]
