I’m sitting on the floor of a friend’s room in my residence hall, watching a movie with her and several others. One of the characters on the screen says, “Things are gonna turn out a little different,” and I hear one of our congregation automatically correct him: “Differently,” she says. I immediately look up at her and say, “No, it’s not.”
In a stirring series that included a 17-penalty game and a charged tribute to their seniors, the No. 7 Badgers (15-9-2) WCHA, 19-9-2 overall) saw their offense ignite against the University of Minnesota-Duluth (13-12-1-0, 14-13-3). The wins—a decisive 3-1 victory Saturday and a 3-2 overtime thriller on Sunday—cap off what has been an exceptional first season for UW in its new home, LaBahn Arena. The next time the Badgers play at LaBahn, they will be hosting their opponents in the WCHA playoffs.

Foxygen is the seven-year-old project of 22-year-olds Sam France (vocals) and Jonathan Rado (guitar/keys). Though the duo already has a back catalog eleven releases deep, We Are the 21st Century Ambassadors of Peace & Magic is Foxygen’s big budget debut LP on the JAGJAGUWAR label. Last year JAGJAGUWAR released Foxygen’s excellent Take the Kids off Broadway EP to widespread acclaim, earning the band their fair share of buzz and a slot on tour with Of Montreal. Where Take the Kids was a Lo-fi collage of ‘60s/’70s glam, We Are the 21st Century Ambassadors of Peace & Magic is a Hi-fi collage of ‘60s/’70s glam. The album is so in debt to its influences that it effectively transcends the label “throwback record,” instead becoming a collage of the band’s role models. The title, as long-winded as it is, says it all.
