Neko Case clearly knows how amazing she is. Fox Confessor Brings the Flood shows an even more confident artist than 2002's classic Blacklisted. Maybe it was the critical acclaim of that album, or maybe it is her work with indie pop outfit The New Pornographers. Whatever the case, Case belts her way through 12 tracks on Fox Confessor, and each one showcases her best singing and writing to date.
Wes Craven's original The Hills Have Eyes,\ which was itself practically a remake of his own 1972 jolter ""Last House on the Left,"" was an ultra low-budget, exploitative look at man's inherent capacity for violence. Both films, which were also influenced by Ingmar Bergman's ""The Virgin Spring,"" had likeable, innocent Americans being tortured and senselessly killed by antagonists representing evil in its purest form so that other likeable, innocent Americans could guiltlessly embrace their capability for violence and slay those godless sons-of-bitches.
The UW men's tennis team looks to begin its final stretch of Big Ten play on a high note as it hosts No. 30 Michigan (2-0 Big Ten, 8-6 overall) this Saturday at Nielsen Tennis Stadium.
Philadelphia—Arizona head coach Lute Olson called it his team's best offensive performance all year. ESPN analyst Dick Vitale would later call it the biggest disappointment of all of Friday's games. Call it what you will, but the Badgers' 94-75 loss to the Wildcats in the first round of the NCAA Tournament at the Wachovia Center in Philadelphia Friday meant the end of their season.Wildcat senior guard Hassan Adams, who played in his first game after being suspended for a DUI, scored 21 points, and junior guard Mustafa Shakur pitched in with 18 points and nine assists, as Wisconsin dropped its fourth-straight game to end the season and failed to pick up its 20th win for the first time since the 2000-'01 season.
If the name Teddy Thompson isn't ringing any bells, don't sweat it. However, if the name of his father, Richard Thompson, doesn't sound familiar, it's time to go back to Rock ‘n' Roll 101. Brit-legend Richard Thompson, quite possibly the world's greatest guitarist, has been putting out solid albums for the last three-and-a-half decades. With ex-wife Linda—a brilliant musician in her own right—Richard had a son, Teddy, who just released his second album, Separate Ways. The big question, though, is if sins of the father are transgenerational, does that also apply to talent?
The Echo TapOnce and a while the downtown bar scene becomes mundane and ordinary.
Fondly recalling his Peace Corps experiences in Tunisia, Gov. Jim Doyle complimented returning Corps volunteers and congratulated newly nominated ones for their dedication and service at Agriculture Hall Friday.
It seems stereotypical to refer to 'the luck of the Irish,' but Madison-based group Rising Gael have to be drawing off it. Although they have only been together for three years, they have established themselves as one of the youngest and most promising Irish groups in Wisconsin, opening for Gaelic Storm last year and set to play multiple venues around St. Patrick's Day.
With media perceptions of Islam ranging from incendiary to offensive, many UW-Madison Muslim students said they are concerned with the assumptions made about them.
This year is Madison's sesquicentennial, and last week the Madison Repertory Theatre got the party started. They opened their new playhouse at the Overture Center with a production of Thornton Wilder's Pulitzer Prize-winning masterpiece 'Our Town.'
Making it clear from the beginning of his Distinguished Lecture Series speech that he was Republican, acclaimed political pollster Frank Luntz was greeted with nothing more than a few disgruntled hisses by students at the Wisconsin Union Theater Monday night.
What happens when former members of the Wallflowers, Spacehog and Cibo Matto team up with a young, vivacious chanteuse? A band with a criss-cross of retro New York City rock, New Age roots and sophisticated, sexualized grit. Morningwood and their self-titled debut is a combination of tongue-in-cheek innuendos and in-your-face raw sexuality that is enjoyable, if light, fare.
Two headlines competed for 'Least Surprising Development' this week:
It took Madison police rows of road spikes to subdue fleeing drug dealers in two separate high-speed chases Wednesday night. Both chases ended without violence, one on Interstate 94 east of the city and one in Verona.
Only a day after the State of the State Address, the reluctance of a Republican-controlled legislature to echo Governor Jim Doyle's health-care reform plans became evident with the defeat of Assembly Bill 860 in committee Wednesday.
More than anything, we like the guys who make it look easy.
When I was a freshman just getting situated in the dorms, the first thing I did was hop a bus to the nearest art theater. I went to high school in the dinky town of Hurley, Wis., which itself doesn't even have a movie theater or video store. If you cross the Michigan border into Ironwood, you'll find only a Family Video (where I worked, of course) and a rather pitiful little four-screen multiplex (which I also briefly worked at) with a penchant for getting only the most mainstream movies. Sooner or later most Oscar contenders would come to us, but most of the time, if you didn't want to see 'Harry Potter' or the latest Julia Roberts movie, you'd be out of luck. So when I came to Madison, I was as excited about the Hilldale Theatre and Westgate Art Cinemas as I was about college girls and beer.
Lt. Gov. Barbara Lawton moderated a panel session Wednesday night for an Academy Evening event, 'Women in the Boardrooms: Getting it Right in Wisconsin,' in an effort to address lessons learned and potential strategies to increase female leadership in the boardroom.
Although Ladytron has been around since 2001, casual music fans could ignore the chronology and write them off as part of the recent synth pop revival.
