[25-WR]
Kyle Vogt as ‘Peter’ – The Room (2003)
[25-WR]
The one third (wheel) party character, only around for friend talks and absolutely non-effecting shenanigans.

[25-WR]
Phillip Haldiman as “Denny” – The Room (2003)
[25-WR]
The tragically misunderstood man-child mascot of a movie, which had no creative solution for him.

Der Hitze-Zenith nach Mittsommer war für (damals) heiße kalifornische Grungeband genau die perfekte Melange zum Einheizen für gemischtaltriges Publikum.
Gelegentliche Funkensprünge wurden gut platziert.
[25-WR]
2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) – Stanley Kubrick
[25-WR]
Benchmark trip from a fantastic audio-visual realm that does not really clarify the slowly rotating Rubik´s Cube storyline that’s space-cold and trauma-like.
[25-WR]
The Virgin Suicides (1999) – Sofia Coppola
[25-WR]
A clandestine teenage brothel run by hard loving parents who keep basking in God´s rain right where the moral crater seems to bleed the most.

TRAGI-COMEDY.

Mank (2020) – David Fincher
[25-WR]
Single most black & white modern period-film exquisitely monkey-grinding the royal Randolph hemp out of us with Reznor-sharp reel-changing monochromatic flair.
[25-WR]
64 (2019) – Hideo Yokoyama
[25-WR]
Im fernsten Osten, Land der Technik und Tradition, umspült der Wert von Ehre und Ansehen die Moral. Kontrolle ist staatlich genormter Puppenspieler der ineinandergreifenden Apparate.

Cecil Beaton Exhibit – Kampa Museum. Prague, Czech Republic
[25-WR]
In spite of “his” queenly-elegant, high-fashion posings of the “gifted class”,
his innate compassion evokes sincere smiles and matures him into Gary Cooper!
[25-WR]
Child Soldier: Creator of God (2020) – Greg Puciato
[25-WR]
The dream of doing whatever you want after being released from strict band(-c)ages is the strength of this multi-colored song collection.
Songwriter ingenuity.

Silent Hill 3 OST (2003) – Akira Yamaoka
[25-WR]
Distressing sound corridors under a rainy post-rock ambience, passing gloomy funeral sirens into it’s wrinkling abyss of cold finality.
Visual dark rock, very unexpected.
[25-WR]
Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1992) – Francis Ford Coppola
[25-WR]
Not even partially dubious casting could jinx this blood-ruby of classy kitsch—carved out of morbid fascination and respect for the franchise´s original outputs.
[25-WR]
Bram Stoker’s Dracula: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (1992) – Wojyciech Kilar
[25-WR]
It turns & churns its lyrical core longingly while secreting stringed beauty made fragile again and again by dramatic orchestral chords that rage with urge.
[25-WR]

[25-WR]
The Graduate (1968) – Mike Nichols
[25-WR]
With youth one can hide from adulthood either by extending it or revisiting…but to escape it entirely, however: one has to try much harder.
[25-WR]
The Graduate (1968) – Simon & Garfunkel
[25-WR]
Lukewarm ghostly at its wide-open churchy heart when not abruptly peacocking itself up with old lascivious grown-up lustre from nighttimes gone clandestinely wild.
[25-WR]
Bronson (2008) – Nicolas Winding Refn
[25-WR]
Precious stone of modern independent cinema and character study “par excellence.” Hysterical, ballistic and mordantly fulminant. A truly stimulating example for period-films to come.
[25-WR]
Forever Becoming (2019 Remaster) – Pelican
[25-WR]
The nicely hooded underground of a metallurgic engine compiled by four instrumental members who are fast in repeating themselves well in aggressive shoulder-patting patterns.
[25-WR]
Black Frost (2019) – Nailed to Obscurity
[25-WR]
Cool-covered dark matter album that pulsates with rhyming drums while guitars bend long and calm together between clear-gutter vocals in tension-releasing punctuation.
[25-WR]
Lords of Dogtown (2005) – Catherine Hardwicke
[25-WR]
The original sparks that supernova-ed a whole industry that ludicrously although successfully reinvented both the wheel and how to become a music-free rockstar.
[25-WR]
Hospital Hallway Scene – The Exorcist III (1990)
[25-WR]
Fast zoom accompanied by a silence-piercing musical sting hits like a battering ram and leaves your heart throbbing in horrific awe.
Jump-scare masterclass.
[25-WR]
Maynard James Keenan (2020) – Joe Rogan Experience #1553
[25-WR]
Pair of big shots talking shit on modern radio like normal while acting like they don´t actually put their pants two legs at a time.
[25-WR]
One Hour Photo (2002) – Mark Romanek
[25-WR]
Uneventful eye-thriller meant to box-office fail despite helpful bad intentions. A film about film itself that looks immaculate but does not communicate well.
[25-WR]
Tabasco Mosquito Commercial project (1998) – Tabasco
[25-WR]
Every TV commercial should be exactly this long and at least this fun not to just suck the blood out of our lifetime and cash.
[25-WR]
Bronson (2008) – Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
[25-WR]
Evocative beyond repair dividing itself up with a greased-up tug-of-war between old and classic—both morbidly bound together with techno-dramatic ambiances.
[25-WR]
HOT Chicken Flavor Ramen 2x Spicy – Samyang
[25-WR]
This box of pa(i)ndora with its wickedly grinning amount of spiciness is the fastest (gimmicky) way to show someones endurance/ perseverance – the standard thai-procedure.
[25-WR]
I Disagree (2020) – Poppy
[25-WR]
Take extravagant shock rock, spiced up with cool riffs, a pinch industrial pop and wrapped with sugar-sweet, refined bombast.
Voila; a popstar gone heavy.
[25-WR]
JS32T Rhoads BK Guitar – Jackson
[25-WR]
This blackened sharp class model embodies the war cry-sound of the glorifying age of heavy distorted music where rebels and freaks turned into superstars.
[25-WR]
Unmountable Stairs (2014) – Witchrider
[25-WR]
An indirect-listening that can beautifully rock just so long as one does not pay too much attention. A promising commercial knockoff-band that’s decent.
[25-WR]
Mid90s (2018) – Jonah Hill
[25-WR]
Profound motion picture of short stature that proves itself large by showing with stunning, sympathetic sharpness how a pre-adolescent masochist jumps into intentional idiocy.
[25-WR]
“Hereditary – Movie Review” (2018) – Chris Stuckmann
[25-WR]
“Hey, you guys: me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me. This movie is about me.”
[25-WR]
Hereditary (Original Soundtrack Album) – Colin Stetson
[25-WR]
Rich and nerve-ended with high contrasts that slow-blend without wood, wind or ecclesiastical resistance underlining sudden silences the way jump-scare noises should.
[25-WR]
Hereditary (2018) – Ari Aster
[25-WR]
Childhood-scary, sating and harrowingly haunting. It bends the mind in all directions while stiffing the body with soul-breaking terror that is just awesome.
[25-WR]
“Spaceship Bedroom Ambiance – Sleeping Quarter Stargazer (White Noise ASMR, Relaxation)” (2016)- The ASMR Geek
[25-WR]
Nerdy visuals and title aside this “autonomous sensory meridian response” video does reliably replay the perfect soundtrack for the thought-turbulent mind looking for clarity.
[25-WR]
Down on the Upside (1996) – Soundgarden
[25-WR]
Taut-tight effort from an established career-place where drums relentlessly support a steel-stringed trampoline for the instrumental human-voice to jump around ranges.
[25-WR]
Geneva (2009) – Russian Circles
[25-WR]
A sand-box full of metal pellets that get strained out by the end of an album which cauterises all wounds in instrumental song-form.
[25-WR]
John Carpenter´s Halloween (2017) – Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross
[25-WR]
Popular-music covers tend to work their best when close to source material spawning thusly fresh spokes instead of an almost always shittier new wheel.
[25-WR]
Raging Wrath Of The Easter Bunny (2020) – Mr. Bungle
[25-WR]
Heavy, raw but repolished highschool writing about social criticism. Sprinkled with self-references, thrash anthem riffs from popular bands and played with lots of fun.
[25-WR]
Vistār (2019)- Amotik
[25-WR]
Bass based arachno-rythmic techno stylings from Berlin that heavily drum the ear as a last vibration-stop coming from the rich underground shaking below.

[25-WR]
“Mantra” (2013) Sound City – Real to Reel
[25-WR]
The slow turning sonic framework of experienced formulas firming each other up in mature cooperation. A compound-track that for once does not sound condescending.
[25-WR]
Becoming X (1996) – Sneaker Pimps
[25-WR]
Good bad-girl song-set that studiedly teases the strung-out listener with a sensually anaesthetic voice that slides gently while burning with revengeful lyrics.
[25-WR]
Dazed and Confused (1993) – Richard Linklater
[25-WR]
Time-honored period-film that simply and independently pulls off a believable vintage-vibe by bringing out big nuances out of very small-town things.
[25-WR]
Borat Subsequent Moviefilm (2020) – Jason Woliner
[25-WR]
Might be the worst sequel “ever to happen to a man or jew”, but its raunchy, manipulative heart still points generously in the right direction.
[25-WR]
Dazed and Confused (1993) – Soundtrack
[25-WR]
There are mostly unusual suspects to be found in this dextrously hand-picked movie soundtrack with 1970´s era-evocative songs that feel mostly like synonyms.
[25-WR]
Euphoria Morning (1999) – Chris Cornell
[25-WR]
It sifts true, strong emotions through the punitive barriers of commercial expectancy—afloat from the then gouged-out Grounge that originally propelled this fallen angel.
[25-WR]
In the Aeroplane Over the Sea (1998) – Neutral Milk Hotel
[25-WR]
Upbeat melancholy raft-ride that´s full of genuine quirkiness and maritime-saltiness that feels bittersweet and soberly sad. Trumpeting ever so slightly while floating around.
[25-WR]
Circumambulation (2013) – True Widow
[25-WR]
Deep, directional bass-foundation that hunters & gathers multiple singing flavors while firmly but timidly fermenting basically the same rhythm with the warmest of distortions.

[25-WR]
Death is on the air mainlining darkness into the mainstream through a polyphonic set of prodigious sounds and patterns that gracefully stumble out of adolescence.

[25-WR]
“What a story, Mark.“
The long overdue explanation of the black hole character of 2000‘s film industry called Tommy Wiseau and his hilariously catastrophic movie.
[25-WR]
Child Soldier: Creator of God (2020) – Greg Puciato
[25-WR]
Transgressive-coersive effort that industrially scatters itself all over the place, deep-synthetizing just about anything standing its way while a versatile Sam Kinison sings.
[25-WR]
Bcd-2 (2008) – Basic Channel
[25-WR]
Intense sounds and rhythms that are like feeling the beating pulse of several types of factory machines at work with a subwoofer-ed up stethoscope.
[25-WR]
Beasts of No Nation (2015) – Cary Joji Fukunaga
[25-WR]
The automatic acid rain that comes with being a voiceless victim with no other choice but gravitational travesty. A perspective-enforcing film of monumental caliber.
[25-WR]
Memento (2000) – Chris Nolan
[25-WR]
Circular uphill post-amnesiac ride that prints itself out both in color and black & white while each new layer diagonally help us to remember.
[25-WR]
Good Omens (2006) – Terry Pratchett & Neil Gaiman
[25-WR]
Heavenly hellish.
Hilariously british.
A comedy bit for everyone, especially when you’re british and not so religious.
Narrated by your inner little Alan Rickman voice.
[25-WR]
Holy Roller – Spiritbox
[25-WR]
Excellent low-budget music video self-presentation that further & heavily exploits its innate-tentional limitations by adding a wonderful found-footage vibe to itself.
[25-WR]
To Sleep In A Sea Of Stars (2020) Christopher Paolini
[25-WR]
This thick monolith started immensely exciting and kidnapped me further into an emotion driven, alien luster space trip with no easy way back into reality.
[25-WR]
Ghosts V: Together (2020) – Nine Inch Nails
[25-WR]
Merely and really the mono-thematic ghost of the former “Ghosts I-IV” (2008) album. Diluted while stringed together by ludicrous cries for emotional positivity.
[25-WR]
Guidance (2016) – Russian Circles
[25-WR]
An instru-metal journey that positively both ascends and descends with heavy ease while knitting mind-deserts that stay tarp-ed under a sepia sky.
[25-WR]
The Piano (1993) – Jane Campion
[25-WR]
Kurt Cobain´s last watched film: kiwi period piece that is really about prostitution rather than repressed passions juicing through the colourful cracks of dark colonialism.
[25-WR]
Seventeen Seconds (1980) – The Cure
[25-WR]
Remarkable techno-pop depth coming from an age-old youngblood with a voice that never changed and a background that should have stayed this pure.
[25-WR]
Station (2008) – Russian Circles
[25-WR]
The strict beauty of synchronised flight of heart & mind held together by sound in tragic camaraderie. Picking through the riffs of death & decency.
[25-WR]
Midsommar (2019) – Ari Aster
[25-WR]
Cliches are nothing but dosed up bait in an artistic horror film of compensatory length that lightens up instead of darken while blooming us away.
[25-WR]
Synchronicity of Brian Posehn (Big Bang Theory), CA
[25-WR]
Aus erstmaligem Blickkontakt nach Mr. Bungle Konzert konnte man den kalifornisch metallischen Fußabdrücken des Show-Darstellers folgen, welche einen Must-buy-Effekt seines Mediums erzeugten.
[25-WR]
Hanging out with Abe (dr/Deftones) on 02/22/20 @Holy Diver, Sacramento, CA

[25-WR]
Mr. Bungle Reunion Concert – 02/13/20 @ The Warfield, San Francisco, CA
[25-WR]

Das ‚Warfield‘ war perfekt für dieses musikalisch historische Ereignis.
[25-WR]
Berghain Nightclub – Berlin, Germany
[25-WR]
Best crèche I´ve ever been to. Disco biscuit selection extensive. Tantalising techno and tank tops, or lack of. Don´t think I´m the same after that.
[25-WR]
Harold and Maude (1971) – Hal Ashby
[25-WR]
This film makes me believe in love. Connection that knows no age, class, or reason. Through each other’s love, both characters become their best selves.
[25-WR]
Berghain Nightclub – Berlin, Germany
[25-WR]
Illegitimate children of Plato and Pandora unite on hallowed techno altar floating in chasmous powerhouse. Serotonin saturated oscillations; razor light beams pelt our naked souls.
[25-WR]
The Kitkat Club – Berlin
[25-WR]
Renowned diversity jamboree behind mad hatteresque door. Decent techno. Liebfraumilch and gimps who don’t care which pronouns you use. Lack of disco biscuits. Not Berghain.
[25-WR]
David‘s Deli Restaurant – Union Square, San Francisco, CA

Hotel angebundener Breakfast,- Lunchtempel zwischen Himmel und Hölle. An der Theke sitzen, übergroße Portionen verspeisen und Pläne für den Tag schmieden stehen auf der Speisekarte.

The Painted Ladies – Ashbury Heights, San Francisco, CA
[25-WR]
Wunderbare Aussicht auf nah und fern dieser stilistisch originellen Stadt.
Dank Tunnelblick würden Touris selbst Elvis ausblenden.
‚Ladies‘ selber wirken heutzutage jedoch weniger „full“/ häuslich.
[25-WR]
Driving Miss Daisy (1989) – Bruce Beresford
[25-WR]
Widowed & wizened,
Jim-Crow-South,

Kinship w/ black chauffeur
While her son
Assimilates.

The White Crow (2018) – Ralph Fiennes

[25-WR]
“Equality & Fraternity” ?
NO.

[25-WR]
The White Crow (2018) – Ralph Fiennes
[25-WR]
The Soviets expect gratitude from
a “lump of coal” they polished into
a diadem for their chandelier of
mock-French Ballet.
But Pinocchio renounces Gepetto.
[25-WR]
The Elevator @Awahnee Hotel, Yosemite National Park, CA
[25-WR]
Agressiv roter Blickfang nachdem man den ikonischen Eingangsbereich passiert hat.
Verstand spinnt automatisch ein sich links eröffnendes Blutszenario zusammen, welches ein Nähertreten unterbewusst erschwerlicher macht.
[25-WR]
Rolo Tomassi (30.07.19) Summer Tour 2019 – MTC, Köln DE

Body and mind, in collision with their favorite music and erotic attraction, in a tight space.
You’ll suffer a joyful meltdown followed by lethargic recovery.
[25-WR]
Eternal Forward Motion (2019) Employed To Serve
[25-WR]
Cold produced riff-core album, whose dissecting distortions and obnoxious grooves rock your skull from its anchoring.
However, lacking experimentation misses shot for genre-milestone.
[25-WR]
Code Orange (16.06.2019) The Hurt Will Go On – Luxor, Köln DE
[25-WR]

Friendly stoner viking on the couch. 24/7 chicken cam. Magical sausage factory with extraordinary carpets and a few too many volcano bongs. Return flights recommended.
[25-WR]
Blueprint for Armageddon – Dan Carlin
[25-WR]
A modern radio show that is definitely worth a dollar and however many sacrificial hours of lifetime this gentleman-and-a-scholar demands from us.
[25-WR]
Get the Sound-Musikhaus – Lichtenberg, Berlin
[25-WR]
Uta, the cool saleslady in charge was not only intelligently unobtrusive, but went out of her way to bring us the instrument herself after-hours.
[25-WR]
Yamaha Arius S34 B
[25-WR]
Unpretentiously elegant, distraction-free electric piano that plays the role of a servant rather than an ivory tower one has to climb up and worship.
[25-WR]
Opium

Easier to procure in western Europe than a proper tradional pipe which would prevent overdosing on desperate consumption measures after failing to get famously high.
[25-WR]
Acid for the Children (2019) – Flea
[25-WR]
The audio form of this book never flees aways from emotional attachment while the author reads his own words with out-louding choked-up laughter.
[25-WR]
Hof Hauptbahnhof – Hof, Germany
[25-WR]
Single most depressing Bavarian train station that sits strongly still, endorphin-free but not majesty-deprived. It reproaches itself with agonizing ghost-town building ferocity.
[25-WR]
German Sülze – First Time Tasting
[25-WR]
Very few acquired culinary tastes can act so quickly on a mind sitting close to an open stomach that awaits patiently in gelatinous timeless amber.
[25-WR]
Berliner ZOB (Central Bus Station) – Berlin, Germany
[25-WR]
They kick you when you´re down and they Flix you when you feel dumb-enough already. A central hub that denies kindness to anybody within.
[25-WR]
The Irishman (2019) – Martin Scorsese
[25-WR]
Crème de la crème of a celebrated lifetime of Midnight Espressos that cinematically pushes every right Benjamin-Button with medically accurate gore and passive wrath.
[25-WR]
Oliver James – Electric Toothbrush
[25-WR]
What could go wrong at 40.000 vibrations per minute? Nothing at all so far but the feeling of guilt for not having used this before.
[25-WR]
Gladiator (2000) – Ridley Scott
[25-WR]
Twist-less crowd winner that Hellraises Oliver’s lion-faced redemption out of bloodied vistas like a fat Phoenix that Reeds of condescending soundtracks and cutting.
[25-WR]
Colosseum – Rome, Italy

Entertained? Sure: I couldn’t possibly be more inter-stained by the thick glory of a 2000-year old ruin that drools dreams of dormant brawls.
[25-WR]
Simply Market – Rome, Italy
[25-WR]
Simply & sickly bereft. Zombie apocalypse jokes? Simple to make from the outside, but no doubt a nightmare for those gladiators about to be engulfed.
[25-WR]
Squisito Cook – Rome, Italy
[25-WR]
In the shadow of the valley of shit: mannerless gouching of tourist-gore that kills all buzzes from all over the world. Shame in you.

Stressed-out little man whole-wheat sandwiched between two strong ladies who sport tattoos and run the show where the thickest sausages vanish always early.

[25-WR]
Dennis Haysbert as a Student

[25-WR]
Happiness in Slavery (1994) – Nine Inch Nails
[25-WR]
I get the feeling that back then it would be weird not to break your instruments on stage so one just had to do it.
[25-WR]
Rosa Luxemburg & Karl Liebknecht 101-Year Memorial March (1.11.20) – Berlin, Germany
[25-WR]
A very eager but meager chanting crowd for such a clear winter day in which manifested mantras were encased by a comically large police force.
[25-WR]
Freebase N,N-Dimethyltryptamine (DMT)
[25-WR]
Colorful perception-ride that feels bittersweet but too short despite all the promise and self-advertising. One’s guts keep being tested even after repeated use.
[25-WR]
El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie (2019) – Vince Gilligan
[25-WR]
A pastrie-bone of an off-spinning movie for those nostalgic fans who for years waited long between seasons. A cultural phenomenon that gives back.
[25-WR]
Night Walk – Johnny M
[25-WR]
Surprisingly effective rhythmic assembly line by the Joseph Haydn of techno music. It slowly grows solid into the listener’s headspace until the promised “deep” arrives.

Brightly lit indie truffle full of good dialog with intimately framed characters who are strong in blood and flavor including the most fatal femme fatale.

What makes this interview between these two public strangers stand out is that no one in it is either acting out nor being played with.
[25-WR]
Swedish Females

Cream-petaled dreams of carnality one respectfully drowns into with every nerve-ending never ceasing to embrace the luxurious pain of lust and unavoidable longing.

[25-WR]
Lamest thing since the Bluetooth earpiece. It’s neither a tripod, nor a weapon (but a good repellent.) Does it catch lightning? I sure hope so.
[25-WR]
WHOOSH! – Screen Shine
[25-WR]
Overpriced but packaged charmingly enough to get away with it, just please don´t catch yourself inadvertently trying to spray it behind your ears like perfume.

Diverse, healthy scandinavian sound/style, like oldschool Opeth with some finnish Melodeath and pinches of doom fortitude.
Grows with time and maybe during swedish sunsets.
[25-WR]
Vacuuming Completely Nude in Paradise (2001) – Danny Boyle
[25-WR]
Flair and flavor remain strong in a brave new decade, only this one feels like an aggressive early-two-thousands stream-of-consciousness psilocybin trip.
[25-WR]
From Mars To Sirius (2005) – Gojira
[25-WR]
Geburt des aktivistischen Bandmaskottchens, welches seit jeher metaphorisch für den grünen Punkt der Metalszene sowie für eine kolossale Bewegung von Sound, Dichte und Qualität steht.
[25-WR]
Cowboy Bebop (1998-1999) Anime Series – Shin’ichirō Watanabe
[25-WR]

Back To Times Of Splendor (2004) – Disillusion
[25-WR]
Deutschland: Tiefe Gewässer, ‚Loch Ness‘-artiger Schatten…?

[25-WR]
The Big Shave (1967) – Martin Scorsese
[25-WR]
Just how many cuts do you need for a final take? Of course the compulsive camera man’s answer is always the same: all of them.

[25-WR]
Faith No More (06.06.2015) Spandau Zitadelle Berlin
[25-WR]
Kontroverses Bühnenbild + Dresscode lassen vom Konzept eines wiedergefunden Glaubens überzeugen.

Der Drum-Messias des Progressive Metal – riesige Persönlichkeit, riesigeres Drumkit und reinster Musiknerd, welcher scheinbar sein Pritvatleben dafür hergibt. Und unzählige Bands, Projekte bestätigen dies.
[25-WR]
Dazed and Confused (1993) Richard Linklater
[25-WR]

[25-WR]
Life of Brian (1979) – Terry Jones
[25-WR]
The crowd-conversation scene needs cutting, other than that it´s still hilarious as a clever compilation of statements and jokes that would never fly today.
[25-WR]
Gambling, Gods and LSD (2002) – Peter Mettler
[25-WR]
A traveling documentary that trips itself into worlds of abrasive escapism, social warp and the terrified hope that sense can be made out of life.

Nice and helpful personnel that patiently awaits for an unprepared, ill-backed customer to change his distant shoes into flip-flops while romancing pain goodbye.

Laid-back melancholy song that sounds the the thresholds of discomfort by surfing the pleasure-pain coast around waters of remorseful memory, hope and desire.
[25-WR]
The Return of Bruno (1987) – Bruce Willis
[25-WR]
An album title that brings at least two questions to mind with a cover photo showing a two-faced Bruce Willis that we still trust.
[25-WR]
Café Orange – Bonn, Germany
[25-WR]
For the elevated of mind and intentions who needs the hiding sanctuary for the tiny-tabled big minds looking for a way out of slavery.

[25-WR]
Bonn – Germany
[25-WR]
Former German capital and present world capital for Beethoven-derision whom the locals insist in ignoring. The grass elsewhere stays always both greener and disgraceful.
[25-WR]
The Doors (1967) – The Doors
[25-WR]
The doors of perception being set on fire, kicked-in and entered. There’s worlds of dare inside. You can now kiss the old-you goodbye.

Kurt & Courtney (1998) – Nick Broomfield
[25-WR]
Far-out, paranoid conspiracy theory trip forced into an almost planted veracity that entertains but carries itself with bad taste and disrespect for the dead.
[25-WR]
Twin Peaks (1990-1991) Season 2 – David Lynch

The Italian mob martian-marching towards an omni-phoebian FF8500-sunset, hexadecimally trance-dancing together with every goddamn culture in the world in absolute merriment.

[25-WR]
iPhone-Compatible Ear-Buds – DAREYOU
[25-WR]
No real advantage in not needing a 3.5mm jack to lightning converter since these “work” only while wired AND Bluetooth “connected“. Thanks but no thanks.
[25-WR]
Radio Silence (2015) – Exovex

Breezy Prog-Rock especially FFO Porcupine Tree.
Floydish solo, clean-parts and light/ heavy riffing, swinging you out of your orbit into beautiful night sky.

[25-WR]
Open Hearts And Clear Minds (2002) The First Step – Livewire Records
[25-WR]
This demo/ bootleg collection scores with punky hardcore-standards and this ‚stomping feet in face‘-feeling, which takes you mentally (retarded) back into 80‘s anarchy.
[25-WR]
You Know What They Mean (2019) Bent Knee
[25-WR]
Schwer verdaulich für Neuhörer dank vieler knallbunter Elemente und quietschigen Vocals. Gerade aber diese Vielschichtigkeit macht es umso belohnender, wenn man drin ist.
Bestes Bandalbum!
[25-WR]
Eyes Wide Shut (1999) – Stanley Kubrick
[25-WR]
Hot cold take on rusted shut adults who were shortchanged with mild kicks after textbook-“making it.” Kidman glows hellenic at the rainbow‘s remote end.

Heaven & Hell (1979) – Black Sabbath
[25-WR]
A hungover but not less able Black Sabbath playing with the official replacement in Ozzy Osbourne´s presumably wishful funeral without anger or Schadenfreude (again, presumably.)
[25-WR]
“White Album” (1968) – The Beatles

Sol Invictus (2015) – Faith No More
[25-WR]
Comeback-Album einer Genre brechenden Band eines Sängers mit unzähligen Nebenprojekten.

Swarm! (2006) – Torture Killer

Wishing your enemies painful death is not the same as killing them. Thinking is no doing and thinking is needed to get better things done.
[25-WR]
The Ruiner (2008) Made Out Of Babies
[25-WR]
Mother of daddy issues with the most engaging female vocals I‘ve ever heard.
Grungy, sludgy, noisy stew with spicy chunks of thick flesh and bones.
[25-WR]
On Our Way To Hell/Return Of The Hellhorde Split (2004) Nunslaughter/Victimizer
[25-WR]
Döm döm, crash, retch, crarararrrrghsh…
Crappy recorded, rumpus sounds straight from the beer consuming, low-level rehearsing underground, for smallest amounts of (trve?) individualists.
[25-WR]
I Disappear (2000) – Metallica
[25-WR]
Cringeworthy song with a cringeworthy video for cringeworthy movie by a (once outstanding) band in their cringeworthy meta(l)mor(e)phosing era ‘round Millennium.

[25-WR]
Twin Peaks (1990-1991) – David Lynch, Season 1
[25-WR]
Although visuals are sound and sensual, one still needs a cotton ball-silent approach to acclimatize to this cold-wooded dreamworld that time-stretches disbelief.
[25-WR]
Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil (1997) – Clint Eastwood
[25-WR]
Very special film about a murder case taking place in the Savannah-wilderness where mescaline goes with the wind in mystic Voodoo rhymes. Seek guidance.
[25-WR]
Use Your Brain (1995) – Clawfinger
[25-WR]
Lots of self-explanatory social anger coming from a revengefully explosive vantage point of riff. An undetonated influence to a whole Nu-market that imploded.
[25-WR]
The Shawshank Redemption (1994) – Frank Darabont
[25-WR]
Zeitloser „Feel Good“-Film über Freundschaft, Gerechtigkeit und Spiritualität für jene ohne Hoffnung, die glauben sie wären am Ende.
Wunderschön verfilmt, komplett ohne Special Effects.
[25-WR]
Ultra (1997) – Depeche Mode
[25-WR]
A spectral-sounding checkmate-playlist that is sensual and torching at the same intense time, while encouraging self-reflection and flight from glamorous suicidal mildew.
[25-WR]
Dinosaurs (1991–1994) – Jim Henson
[25-WR]
Somehow a much more realistic depiction of family life than all the other human-based sitcoms that canned a whole generation with fake, featherless laughter.
[25-WR]
Days of Wine and Roses (1962) – Blake Edwards
[25-WR]
The pitiful side of alcoholism and the black & white big road of fun that takes one there. Large caliber acting in a tremendous film.
[25-WR]
Groundhog Day (1990) – Harold Ramis
[25-WR]
Define limbo…okay, now redefine it in a commercial 1990´s existential rom-com way with a sexually obtuse female character and a wasted Chris Elliot.
[25-WR]
Garden of Storms (2019) – In Mourning
[25-WR]
Diverse, healthy scandinavian sound/style, like oldschool Opeth with some finnish Melodeath and pinches of doom fortitude.

The Book Of Knots – Traineater (2007) Anti- Records
[25-WR]
This sound shaped post-industrial love letter showcases many acknowledged musicians within their strange fetishes.

From These Wounds (2006) Funeral – Tabu Records
[25-WR]
Sells exactly what it looks like.
Real Heavy Gothic/Doom Metal perfect as cremation of anger and depressive mourning.

[25-WR]
Endon – Through The Mirror (2017) Daymare Recordings

The Island of Dr. Moreau (1996) – John Frankenheimer & Richard Stanley (Uncredited)
[25-WR]
Giant blimp of dislodged tropical lunacy raining down expensive disaster in the huts & minds of those on screen and behind the scenes. Flop legend.

[25-WR]
A bizarre true-story satellite parasitically surrounding the final years of reclusive director Stanley Kubrick who would no doubt get a kick out of this.
[25-WR]
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) – Michel Gondry
[25-WR]
A visually strong, practically effective piece of subjective cinema by tenderly perpetrating a set of talented men and women asking themselves what happened and why.
[25-WR]
Bierkulturhotel Ehingen (Badem-Württemberg, DE)
[25-WR]
Der Verlockung eines Wochenende‘s in der schwäbischen Bierhochburg Deutschlands kann Mann nur schwer widerstehen. Jedoch wirkt trotz Touristenschnittstelle die Mentalität sehr dörflich und unambitioniert zufrieden.

A very touching account on a family’s reaction to the kind of loss that hammers a basic sense of fairness within shatter-prone human beings.

[25-WR]
A clown master class from the all-time deadpan samurai Bill Murray supported by a Kabuki Quaid, a fabulous Gena and an infallible Jason Robards.

A gasoline marriage waiting for a young match to come and share their social lubricant. Venomous but loving wit that’s wet with shades of grey.

[25-WR]
No one will object to the over-tantalization of characters while swimming the oppressive swamps of an ill-sense of memory that is rage-cursed.

Harrowing sylvian Ouija-boarding of the mind that genuinely wounded mass audiences everywhere. Less is more when it comes to found footage, though. Avoid sequels.

Sicario (2015) – Denis Villeneuve
[25-WR]
Drogenschmuddel, (moralische) Grenzüberschreitungen und der verwesende Geruch von Misstrauen kreieren etwas dünnen Storyplot.
Schauspielerische Leistung, Kameraführung, Bild/Ton jedoch in Perfektion.
Benicio im indirekten Scheinwerferlicht!
[25-WR]
Suicide Squad (2016) – David Ayer

Iron Man 2 (2010) – Jon Favreau
[25-WR]
Größerer Cast und erste Avenger-Handlungsstränge bahnen Großartiges an. Mission Impossible Charme und Inspektor Gadget Vibes erschaffen ein durchschnittliches Sequel. Lückenhaftes jedoch notwendiges MCU-Kapitel.

Much sexier but not ready to descend all the way down into hell like the Australian source material does. Still hilarious despite excessive self-referencing.
[25-WR]
Small Time Crooks (2000) – Woody Allen

A potent and superficially alienating Terry Gilliam gem that parallels in beauty to Igmar Bergman´s Fanny Hoch Alexander (1982) in bringing up mystic childhood voodoo.
[25-WR]
Throw Momma from the Train (1987) – Danny DeVito
[25-WR]
Strangers on a Hitchcock trail of Oedipus-fears unbalancing one another away from the spinelessness they choke with. DeVito and Ramsey shine with tremendous enthusiasm.

BEETLEJUICE is the American Monthy Python. BEETLEJUICE is an 80’s German Expressionism medallion pierced cleanly by Keaton’s sharp comedic perfection. BEETLEJUICE reads like stereo instructions.
[25-WR]
Museum für Naturkunde – Berlin, Germany

Fantastic both in essence and intent but somewhat neglected budget-wise. It presents an exhausting amount of research with specimens including breathtaking dinosaur visitor-bait.
[25-WR]

[25-WR]
Jumpy, if not passive-paranoid arrest that´s enshrouded with criminal neuroses that beatify themselves blind with repetition-less ornamentation. Not an interpretation but ivied ranting.

Confessions of a Dangerous Mind (2002) – George Clooney
[25-WR]
Wise men say only fools rush into a dating game show and fall in love with themselves on television—but the wisest run the show.

The Deer Hunter (1978) – Michael Cimino
[25-WR]
Haunting downer that sinks deep into disillusionment, betrayal and post traumatic spleen-depression by Russian rouletting us between their past and present like prison toys.
[25-WR]
Indepence Day (1996) – Roland Emmerich
[25-WR]
Jedermanns Fantasie und Ängste in hollywood’schem Kostüm. Gefüllt mit erstklassigen Cast und trotz vieler Akteure, Handlungsstränge und überspielter Sci-Fi-Logik ein vollständiger Film. Popcornkino.

In-motional motion picture with a fluent techno-rhythm and welcomed gimmicks that keep our eyes lubricated, tuned and toned throughout an intense perception-workout.

Very serious comical take on a single star system in the disbelief-suspended galaxy of organized religion and their Bonde-esque villains coloring it all.

[25-WR]
Cusack hasn´t been this good since his own Grace disappeared, but Dano has been trully great for the first time in a permanently resonant film.

Amarena-Kirsch Senfsauce

Überraschung für Gaumen und im Nachgeschmack. Die süße Note ergänzt sich hervorragend zu hellen Fleischgerichten sowie in betitelter Kombination mit Käse. Delikatessartikel mit untypischer Senfnote.
[25-WR]
Kaminofen Fire
[25-WR]
Fluffy fire that‘s truly volcanic as well as satanic through the stained-glass trap-door window staving off miniature hell from a German Expressionist mortuary.
[25-WR]
Intro – Mandy (2018)
[25-WR]
It starts out soberly Jacking the King Crimson lumber sap Out of a roller-coasting tree-line that dusks blood red dawns out of Death.
[25-WR]
The Perfect Drug (1997) – Mark Romanek
[25-WR]
Cold plate of vampiric hors d’oeuvres served with visual mastery. Extracts fine things out of Kitsch instead of just swiping them under the bear carpet.
[25-WR]
Powerslave (1984) – Iron Maiden
[25-WR]
Könige der Albencover in oriantalischer Hitze und ägyptischer Mythologie. Angebeteter Eddie fliegt und lässt Klingen aufblitzen. Bestes Solo im Titeltrack und progressive Schiffsreise im Closer.

This is what happens when cocaine and a healthy budget meet each other, fall deeply in love and decide to make a beautiful baby together.
[25-WR]
Everything That Is You (2019) – Thrailkill

Instrumentale Supernova die mit ihren regenbogenfarbenen Strahlen jede noch so dunkle Sphären erhellt und harmonisch reflektiert. Virtuose Gitarre mit Feeling ohne viel aufgesetzt übertechnisches Machogeshredde.

Revocation (22.12.2018) – Global Invasion Tour, Turock Essen, Deutschland
[25-WR]

[25-WR]
Naked (1993) – Mike Leigh
[25-WR]
The smartest people in the world seem to spawn in Manchester. No doubt, a cosmic conspiracy hides behind this preternatural patch of hyper-verbose land.
[25-WR]
Todd Macfarlene‘s Spawn (1997-1999)
[25-WR]
Gory expansion pack to those who’s optical curiosity was originally aroused by the likes of “Do the Evolution” or “Follow the Leader” music videos respectively.
[25-WR]
Songs For The Deaf (2002) Queens Of The Stone Age

[25-WR]
Resident Evil 4 (2005) – Capcom
[25-WR]
Kontrovers blasses Setting macht Blut umso alarmierender. Mutationen wirken zum ersten Mal bedrohlich realistisch. Genießen Sie typisch spanisches Temperament ländlichen Zombiegehege. Und bitte keine Käferphobie.
[25-WR]
Magic 1 WiFi – Devolo
[25-WR]
Despite labyrinth-inducing instructions that makes one wonder the universe itself sometimes—this product does indeed deliver the promised internet-signal punch. Use with app.
[25-WR]
Auto Focus (2002) – Paul Schrader
[25-WR]
Careful what you audition for: it might get you in the tightest-spot of a color-blind district that is sharp with double-life contrast.
[25-WR]
Practice What You Preach (1989) – Testament
[25-WR]
It boggles the mind that these gentlemen continue to be perceived as lesser than Anthrax. Trash-talking Testament should be a Thrash-preacher´s pet peeve.
[25-WR]
Gilden – Kölsch
[25-WR]
It delineates itself with self-gilded claims of under-priced excellence out of the proud oceanic pastures of German beer and its default benchmarking mechanism.
[25-WR]
Blood Simple (1984) – The Coen Brothers
[25-WR]
Strong start for one of the strongest creative duos soldered together by nature and tried to be separated by none. A text-book student film.
[25-WR]
Black Gives Way To Blue (2009) – Alice In Chains
[25-WR]
Neuer Sänger mit natürlich origineller Stimmfarbe. Neue Motivation aus der Trauer, den drogenversifften Mammutspuren und dem Grunge herauszutreten. Eine cleane Band. Ein hammergeiles Hardrock Album.
[25-WR]
Sich tätowieren lassen
[25-WR]
Wie Fahrradfahren nur ohne besser zu werden. Flache, angenehme sowie steile, holprige Strecken – Kratzer, Narben und muskelkaterartiger Nachschmerz. Aber die Aussicht ist es durchaus wert.
[25-WR]
Altars Of Madness (1989) – Morbid Angel
[25-WR]
80er Metal Nachwirkungen, originelles Cover, Solo an Solo, fanatischer Okkultismus – Diese Death Metal-Blaupause mit ihrem Florida-Sound bahnt unendlich viele Wege für kommende Großtaten.
[25-WR]
Ur-Kostitzer Pilsner – German Beer
[25-WR]
Another round of these heavy-herbies would be too much asking from an arrogant looking Swedish king who no doubt was a closet manic depressive.
[25-WR]
Modern Drunkard Magazine – 25-WR Websites
[25-WR]
The site has a lot good creative energy that glows through preserved jam jars of ideal writing and graphic design. Affirmation for the solitary imbiber.
[25-WR]
‚Be Right Back‘ (2013) Black Mirror: 02×01 – Owen Harris
[25-WR]
Technischer Fortschritt kommt zwar auf physischer Ebene, teilweise oberflächlich psychisch, weit.
Aber rechtfertigt eine charakteristische Hülle diese moralische Gradwanderung und befriedigt somit unser emotionales Ich?
[25-WR]
A Clockwork Orange (1971) – Stanley Kubrick
[25-WR]
Impersonal ultra-violence versus institutional, underage debauchery versus systematic adulthood. An excitingly repulsive playground where parents have no idea and the State blurs it all.
[25-WR]
‘Nosedive‘ (2016) Black Mirror: 03×01 – Joe Wright
[25-WR]
Black Mirrors Social Media Rundumschlag kreiert wieder mal eine wundervoll künstlerische Welt mit brandaktueller Botschaft. Atemberaubendes Schauspiel besonders von der Hauptdarstellerin ist millionen Likes wert.
[25-WR]
Inherent Vice (2014) – Johnny Greenwood
[25-WR]
A fog encounter in the salty night where songs of all walks of sound take turns to gas the colored lamps glowing the way ahead.
[25-WR]
Steak Mural (2016) Marcus Haas – Berlin, Germany
[25-WR]
Universal eye catcher with stern political connotations that elevate graffiti art into what turn-of-the-20th-century anti-imperialist graphic design still achieves today.
[25-WR]
The Haunting Of Hill House (2018- ) – Netflix
[25-WR]
Klassiches Gruselkonzept um übernatürliches Haus. Jedoch erschreckend gut ineinandergreifendes Familiendrama, welches den Plot/ das Acting mit jeder Episode in tiefere Gewässer bringt. Best of Netflix.
[25-WR]
Oatly! – Haferdrink
[25-WR]
Clevere Werbekampagne auf modernen sozialen Medien. Witzige Slogans die den heutigen Veganhipster ansprechen. Aus Skepsis wurde Überraschung wurde Überzeugung. Erste wirklich leckere Alternative zu Milch.
[25-WR]
Caligulas Horse – The Tube Düsseldorf, 30.10.18
[25-WR]
Zuvor auf diesjährigem Euroblast gesehen – Pure Faszination. Gitarrenfinesse, Spielfreude und glasklarer Livesound brillieren sogar (besser) im engen Club. Was ist heutzutage im australischen Wasser drin.
[25-WR]
A Patient Man (2018) – Cult Leader
[25-WR]
Mit Unruhe verursachenden Gitarrenkrächzen, saftigem Bass und sludgigem Gekeife klingt die bessere Hälfte der Scheibe wie ein hochsportliches Massaker im Schlachthaus. Ein halbstark pfeffriges Gulasch.
[25-WR]
The People vs. Larry Flynt (1996) – Milos Forman
[25-WR]
No need to agree with people’s desires, but to absolutely defend their right to pursuit them and prosper. Bad-taste has a short shell life.
[25-WR]
The Fan (1996) – Tony Scott
[25-WR]
Riveting thriller with a pretty good coverage of superstition and the many types of obsessions that come with it. A summer blockbuster made to last.
[25-WR]
Gone Girl (2014) – Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross
[25-WR]
The tarring stains of gone matrimony and the haunting rhythms of burning irreplaceable innocence. Outstanding soundtrack that trumpets pangs of hope between disorienting anxiety patterns.
[25-WR]
Victory at Sea (1952-1953) – NBC
[25-WR]
An astounding set of newsreel-like pieces set in a frantic world-creating pace covering large-scale naval conflicts with nothing but grace and respect.
[25-WR]
Review with Myles Barlow (2008–2010) – Phil Lloyd, Trent O’Donnell
[25-WR]
As dark as allowed, as hilarious as it can be. Should become a welcomed acquired taste for those who first started with the American remake.
[25-WR]
A Perfect Circle (10.12.2018) – Palladium Köln, Deutschland
[25-WR]
Dieser Band absoluter Profis gelingt sogar im Palladium ein glockenklarer Klang. Ein ‚perfect circle jerk-off‘ für Soundfetischisten. Allerdings trotz Kameraverbot erschwerte Sicht dank Hallensäulen.
[25-WR]
The Predator (2018) – Shane Black
[25-WR]
Zwei Predator, Weirdo-Protagonistensquad vs. Regierungsteam = wild aneinandergereihte SciFi-Action und One-liner-Coolness dank MCU-Humor. Enttäuschend für Fans. Erheiternd für heutige Filmgänger.
[25-WR]
Cocaine Cowboys (2006) – Billy Corben
[25-WR]
A perfect documentary that is put together by guide-listening the direct architects of the subject matter instead of architecting them directly into something else.
[25-WR]
Verlassenes Kinderkrankenhaus Weißensee – Berlin, Deutschland (INCORRECT)
[25-WR]
Tagsüber beliebte Besucherstätte neugieriger Jugend und Touristen, nachts Ruhestätte für Obdachlose sowie Drogenmekka. Diese verweste Attraktion brilliert dank spukender Leere und dem nährenden Horrorfilm-Potenzial.
[25-WR]
Sid and Nancy (1986) – Alex Cox
[25-WR]
An extraordinary film with an even better cast. Gary Oldman´s true Ludwig van Beethoven performance shining through the life of a talentless but charismatic kid.
[25-WR]
Mandy (2018) – Panos Cosmatos
[25-WR]
A fucking fabulous face – morphing film – feast, that feels like a heavy Ayahuasca trip that will rock and roll you out of your favorite t-shirt.
[25-WR]
Beneath The Mind (2018) – Ayahuasca
[25-WR]
Welcome To The Jungle 2018! Ayahuasca laden mit Bongos, Didgeridoo etc. ein zum stürmischen Urwaldmosh. Musiker exotischster Nationen aus Köln erschaffen ein Kulturtrademark im Metalgewand.
[25-WR]
Ayahuasca Release Gig (10.11.18) – Underground Wuppertal, Deutschland
[25-WR]
Urwaldklänge locken Besucher zur Bühne. Tribales Getrommel der drei Percussionisten, vier Gitarren liefern zungeschnalzendes Riffmanifest, drei unterschiedliche Vocalstimmen beschließen das Ritual. Ein Release. Eine Mammutgeburt.
[25-WR]
Crack The Skye (2009) – Mastodon
[25-WR]
Element Wind ist das Mantra von Mastodons Magnum Opus, was den Tod der Schwester des Drummers behandelt. Mein persönliches Gateway-Album in den Prog Metal.
[25-WR]
Let the Right One In (2008) – Johan Söderqvist
[25-WR]
Sweeter than somber but with a cold, compensating Swedish stroke of resigned-downer that reminds of other movie scenes instead of setting more creative distance.
[25-WR]
Revolver (1966) – The Beatles
[25-WR]
A warm revolver loaded with intense imagination that makes you happy every time you pick it up. It contains Mccartney´s arguably best song: Elenor Rigby.
[25-WR]
Paris, Frankreich
[25-WR]
Der erste Eindruck in der Nacht spiegelt alle bekannten französischen Vorurteile wieder. Jedoch lichten sich diese schnell wenn die Stadt tagsüber die kulturellen Highlights präsentiert.
[25-WR]
Green Apple – Mozart
[25-WR]
Found in an Edeka Supermarket where the greens are redder than everyone else’s yellows and even a simple apple has to stand out. Marketing works.
[25-WR]
Resident Evil 7 VR (2017)
[25-WR]
Das perfekte Medium um Survival Horror richtig zu genießen. Ich betrat eine andere Dimension. Mit VRBrille verschwammen abstrakte Kreaturen, Räumlichkeiten, Natur beider Welten zur Surrealität.
[25-WR]
Dead Cross (16.06.2018) – Gloria Theater Köln, Deutschland
[25-WR]
Lieblingssängers neue Band live.

Symphony No. 1 in C, Op.21 (1801) – Ludwig van Beethoven
[25-WR]
Impetuous kickstart to one of the greatest sound quilts out of this planet of ours. A youthful but articulate jump of joy towards embracing life.
[25-WR]
Hollywood Babylon (1959) – Kenneth Anger
[25-WR]
A morbidly mordant red-carpet bombing campaign with its name-dropping making distant stars fall from the sky like an exquisite rain of grand pianos.
[25-WR]
Beck’s – German Beer
[25-WR]
Germany‘s own Heineken. It floats cocky and everlasting in the international waters of normal beer where a very low consumption temperature is the great equalizer.
[25-WR]
Jinjer (17.05.18) – Jungle Club
[25-WR]
Heißeste Neuentdeckung Anfang des Jahres. Exzesszive weibliche Dominanz erzeugte Befehle befolgen, metaphorisches Sabbern und überall Schweiß sowie Schreie im Männerpit vor mir. ‚SM‘ + Liveshow.
[25-WR]
One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest (1975) – Milos Forman
[25-WR]
Don’t deny a man his basic right to have a goddamn beer and watch the game in the completely lucid lunacy of life lived well.
[25-WR]
Into the Wild (2007) – Sean Penn
[25-WR]
The beauty of human flight and the tragic finality of it—a celebration of youth by a very mature director we’ve all seen grow up.
[25-WR]
Euroblast – Köln, Deutschland
[25-WR]
Ein internationales, jedoch familiäres Kollektiv aus echten Musikliebhabern und inspirierenden Musikern ergeben eine hohe Dichte an wunderschönen Menschen, welche Alternativität/ Progressivität mit jeder Faser zelebrieren.
[25-WR]
Laphroaig ‚Quarter Cask‘ – Islay Single Malt Scotch
[25-WR]
Einer meiner ersten und liebsten von Islay. Erste Schlücke dieses torfigen Schotten ließen mich husten – „Flüssiger Rauch?“ Laphroaig macht selten Freunde, doch bleiben sie lebenslang.
[25-WR]
Angel Dust (1992) – Faith No More
[25-WR]
Tiefer in den bunten Sumpf voller vielseitiger Kreaturen der Nacht. Patton mal Sirene, mal Wendigo. Und dank leider letztem (elementarem) Mitwirken Metalgitarrist Jim Martins Swansong.
[25-WR]
Le Samuraï (1967) – Jean-Pierre Melville
[25-WR]
French Film Noir smeared in lonely tones and isolated colors showing the flip-side of persecution and its complex perplexities. A memorable existential staring contest.
[25-WR]
Kakushöhle – Eifel, Deutschland
[25-WR]
Faszinierender Naturkomplex wo Licht und Schatten, Höhen und Tiefen jenes innere Kind heranlocken. Besinnlicher Quell imaginärer Fantasien und transzendenter Hürdenbewältigung, welcher reine Klarheit hervorscheinen lässt.
[25-WR]
Alter Friedhof – Bonn, Germany
[25-WR]
For the romantic hermit that is essentially hobbied at heart—microwaving steady historical isolation with short shocks that light up the whole architectural macrocosmos inside.
[25-WR]
No Country for Old Men (2007) – The Coen Brothers
[25-WR]
Bubonic-plague personified decides to single out the fastest Death-escaping cowboy and wastes no time in hunting him down a road of rural intrigue.
[25-WR]
Elenor Rigby (1966) – The Beatles
[25-WR]
Everybody has some kind of redeeming quality — not unlike this catchy song from the least-liked surviving Beatles member and its absolute but temporary dfghdfh.
[25-WR]
The Shining (1980) – Stanley Kubrick
[25-WR]
There´s a lot of lack of fidelity to source material but the audio-visual aura is enchanting and inviting enough to bounce like a baseball.
[25-WR]
The Ocean (06.11.18) – Schlachthof Wiesbaden, Deutschland
[25-WR]
Intimer Gig im gemütlichen Kesselhausraum des Schlachthofs. Scheinwerfer unterstützen mit jeweiliger Albumfarbe das brühende Feeling.
Tornados, Geysirdämpfe, Tieftauchgänge, Vulkanausbrüche etc. brachten den „Kessel“ zum Kochen.
[25-WR]
Cat´s in the Bag… (2008) – Breaking Bad 01×02
[25-WR]
Beiden Protagonisten haben ihr erstes Abenteuer überstanden, die Konsequenzen daraus navigieren sich zu einer neuen Herausforderung. Zwei Körper. Leben und Tod. Ein Münzwurf. Eine „Lösung.”
[25-WR]
Iron Man (2008) – Jon Favreau
[25-WR]
Downey Jr.‘s mechanische Wiederbelebung durch selbstspiegelnde Hauptrolle. Man nehme aktuelle Kriegswirtschaft, eine Prise Humor und einen Black Sabbath Klassiker um ein neues Universum zu erschaffen.
[25-WR]
Paths of Glory (1957) – Stanley Kubrick
[25-WR]
A battleground-breaking anti-war, anti memory-loss production that came out only twelve years after the great war cracked the Death atom-nerve open.
[25-WR]
Paradise Lost (1996-2011) – Documentary Trilogy
[25-WR]
A must-absorb exculpatory HBO documentary tryptic that saved the lives and reputations of half of the six direct victims of this multi-slayered crime.
[25-WR]
Lost Highway (1997) – Trent Reznor
[25-WR]
A floating crime scene playlist congealed together by counterclockwise suspense fueling a colorful film noir that is both cosmically weird and dearest to the deranged.
[25-WR]
Army of Me (1995) – Michael Gondry
[25-WR]
Milks the practical effect-cow to its last drop; turns it into oil and the carbon into diamond. All rationally shown in old-fashioned aspects.
[25-WR]
Human Nature (2018) – Sevdaliza
[25-WR]
Durch minimalistischen Beat begleitet kratzt dieser spiritualisierende Song an meiner introvertierten Seele. Eher zum isolierten Hördurchlauf, allerhöchstens wenn man eine Frau verführt nach selbstoffenbarenden Dialogen.
[25-WR]
The Outer Ones (2018) – Revocation
[25-WR]
Death Thrash Metal soup with blackened flesh and Lovecraft inspired lyric. Jazz influenced chords over groovy breaks to finest soloing annihilation. Typical killing spree material.
[25-WR]
Trafostation Open Air (2018) – Frechen, Deutschland
[25-WR]
Ein Festival gefüllt mit lokalen Bands des Rheinlands. Musik war divers. Die Menschen letztenendes die Gleichen. Eine bagatellisierende Mentalität aus heuchlerischen, egoistischen und maskierten Aufsteigern.
[25-WR]
Letters From The Colony – Vignette (2018)
[25-WR]
Eiskalte Gitarren und stürmische Drums in knochenharter Brillianz. Zwischendurch wehen abstrakt schöne Cleanpassagen eine letzte bunte Herbstbrise in diesen frühwinterlichen, schwedischen Sonnenaufgang. Extrem starkes Debütalbum!
[25-WR]
‚Jambi‘ (2006) – Tool
[25-WR]
Das dynamische Konstrukt von Gitarre, Bass und Drums erzeugt den kolossalen Sound eines Panzers der sich über Trümmer und Leichen hinfort bewegt.
Improve, erase, repeat!
[25-WR]
Married with Aliens (1992) Married with Children: 05×07 – Gerry Cohen
[25-WR]
Mad men they lock up, mad dogs they shoot. Rare to find a comedy show not ruined by condescending canned laughter that no one needs.

Rear Window (1954) – Alfred Hitchcock
[25-WR]
What happens when you give a man with integrity the masked opportunity of minding other people’s business? No need to move to go too far.

[25-WR]
Traum Botschaft (3.09.18)
[25-WR]
Ein Resümee meines positiven Sinneswandels konzentriert auf Beschreibung der mentalen Wegrichtung und Bestätigung der Notwendigkeit. Astralprojektionen als individuelles Vorwort zum Buch „The War of Art“.
[25-WR]
Body Count (9.06.18) – Rockhal. Esch an der Alzette, Luxemburg
[25-WR]
Mit durchschnittlicher Erwartungshaltung hingefahren, absolut zufrieden wieder zurück. Motherfuckin Ice-T hat mit seiner Band aus Freunden, Familie und unerwarteter Spielfreude mein Highlightgig 2018 zelebriert.
[25-WR]
Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino (2018) – Artic Monkeys
[25-WR]

All bets are off when off the grid you go, except for betting on life itself which can look, feel and sound like nothing before.

Finding true truant-camaraderie in some of the darkest, yet most sought-after corners of this open-bar planet of ours can sometimes be beautiful.
[25-WR]
Alice in Chains (04.07.18) – LMH Köln, Deutschland
[25-WR]
Live-Überraschung des Jahres. Cool und zurückgelehnt spielten die 90er-Urgesteine eine grandiose Setlist, die alle Grungehörer befriedigt hätte. Schweißtreibende Atmosphäre dank Hitze und Riffs.
[25-WR]
‚Dickhead‘ (2011) Steak Number Eight – All Is Chaos
[25-WR]
Schrammelnde Gitarren. Eine verzerrte, verbrauchte Stimme. „Suck my fuckin cock“ Lyrics. Bandbilder zeigen junge Band. Dieser Song könnte aus jeder der letzten 4 Dekaden kommen.
[25-WR]
Darkglass B7K (2014) – Bass Pre-Amp Pedal
[25-WR]
Apple-artige Aufmachung, Qualitätsiegel!
Diese synthetische Soundverstärkung aus Finnland präsentiert das nächste Level an Klangerweiterung für Bassisten und kann sich mit wuchtigen Verzerroptionen aggressiv durchsetzen.

The Last Of Us (2013) – PS4

Die harsche Darstellung einer tödlichen Pandemie und folgendem Überlebenskampfes macht dieses Spiel zur lohnenden Tortur von echten Gefühlen in einer toten (Spiele)Welt.
Ein perfektes Spiel.
[25-WR]
The Real Thing (1989) – Faith No More
[25-WR]
Neben Anselmos Pantera-Einstieg hob auch ein gewisser Patton eine Band auf komplett anderes Level. Funk und Rap fusioniert mit Metal passierte bereits vor RATM.

Blizzard of Ozz (1980) – Ozzy Osbourne
[25-WR]
The Blizzard of Randy Rhodes and the Chris Farley of Heavy Metal (or vice-versa) making the stuff Tenacious D’s wet-dreams are made of.
[25-WR]
Pilot (2008) – Breaking Bad: 01×01
[25-WR]
The colorful reaction from periodically combining the Walter and Jesse elements is the show. We’re the pilot’s helpless copilot in this RV of an introduction.
[25-WR]
Death Note (2006)
[25-WR]
37-teilige Sternstunde eines finsteren Animes. Großes Alleinstellungsmerkmal ist dass der Antagonist Protagonist ist. Detektivkrimi um psychologischem Kampf zweier Genies und Spannung welche Seite gewinnt.
[25-WR]

[25-WR]
An effective bon vivant in the political realm who’s own mind has become imprisoned in a cell of depleted endorphins finds action in external meaning.

Bushworld Adventures (2018) – Rick & Morty
[25-WR]
Alternative Realität wo Rick mit manischen Tendenzen ein sinnfreies „Abenteuer“ anstrebt während Morty mit egalitärer Passivität ins offene, ahnungslose Ende folgt. Ein Spiegel unserer Gesellschaft.
[25-WR]
LP5 (2019) – Apparat
[25-WR]
Aus Berliner Clubs strömen progressive Soundteppiche, geflochten durch voluminös verträumte Radiohead-Stoffreste mit einer neonbunt Aphex Twin-beatlastigen Fadenführung.
Keine Kategorie, keine Kopie, keine Grenzen.
[25-WR]
Piano Concerto No.23 in A, K.488 – Allegro in A (1786) – Wofgang Amadeus Mozart/Horowitz/Giulini
[25-WR]
Rides a hair or two faster than usual but does not in any way feel carousel-led or gone astray in repetitive dactyl derision. Cool.
[25-WR]
Roma (2018) – Alfonso Cuarón
[25-WR]
Optisches Meisterwerk aus beeindruckend schwenkender Kameraarbeit (über 360 Grad!) und langen Shots erzeugt intimes Mexiko der 70er, wessen Handlung in Akt 3 besonders glänzt.
[25-WR]
The Wolf of Wall Street (2013) – Martin Scorsese
[25-WR]
Rise and fall of the great wall of street Gatsby-ing self-amusedly told in tones that charm and entertain but fail to reach redemption.
[25-WR]
The Tree of Life (2011) – Terrence Malick
[25-WR]
It boggles the mind to see modern beauty so densely packed into a movie-sitting. A transcendental chandelier made out of sweat, tears and chlorophyll.
