Interview - Danny Boyle

March 11th, 2009 by Agata Smieciuszewski



There has been enormous buzz for Danny Boyle’s movie Slumdog Millionaire for months now. The film was once headed straight-to-video, but now that fate seems laughable. The film won 8 Acadamy Awards, including Best Motion Picture of the Year and Best Achievement in Directing for Mr. Boyle. You may recognize him from his previous works, Trainspotting, 28 Days Later, or Sunshine. Garrett and I had the chance to speak with him before the film was such a huge success, and here’s what he had to say (more…)

Interview - Crüxshadows

October 29th, 2008 by Elissa Winters

Few bands rule the “gothic/darkwave” music scene, but The Crüxshadows
has done so for a number of years. Since the creation of the band by
lead singer Rogue in the 90’s, The Crüxshadows has worked its way to
the top. The band is gaining more and more recognition, playing in
numerous countries and performing with a multitude of other bands in
the genre. And for all this, Rogue found the time to sit down with me

Cera seems to be exactly like the many characters he portrays and Dennings beaming with happiness.

Back in a little month called March, before the sweltering heat killed my fern-pine Kevin who now lies dead in his pink flower pot, I met Casiotone for the Painfully Alone frontman Owen Ashworth after his show at Hailey’s in Denton TX and asked if he would do a little phone interview with us on his upcoming day off. This is the man who brought you 2006’s delightful album Etiquette, a collection of songs anyone who’s ever been frustrated, in hate or in love should probably listen to. That means you.

Here Owen talks about dropping out from film school, Jamie Stewart from Xiu Xiu, his friends from The Dead Science, being on Tomlab, Bobby, Holly, and Vegetarian Soul Food. (more…)
