Love and the Muse
Marianne and Leonard: Words of Love, 2019, 1 hour 42 minutes. Directed by Nick Broomfield. “Dearest Marianne,” Leonard Cohen writes to Marianne as she’s dying in a hospital bed, “I’m just a little behind you, close enough to take your hand.” And so begins the elegiac and hauntingly beautiful 2019 documentary, Marianne and Leonard: Words of Love. The film is a jagged sort of love story about Leonard and his Norwegian muse. Because Broomfield was Marianne Ihlen’s lifelong friend (and he adds, her lover on Hydra) the documentary is a magical memory tour that includes personal archival film, photos, and voiceovers of Marianne, Leonard, and the director too. Like a Harold Pinter play that begins at the end of the story and moves backwards in time, Marianne and Leonard transits from Marianne’s ...
The Most Influential Artists: #13 Dr. Dre
As part of our 35th anniversary, we’re naming the most influential artists of the past 35 years. Today, we’re at #13. From Compton, California, here is Dr. Dre. Credit: Raymond Boyd / Contributor Dr. Dre had predecessors and peers, but he’s the sonic architect of West Coast rap: Integral to its inception, he shaped and then reimagined the contours of its sound. His influence extends from the ‘80s to the unlikely day that people stop playing “Nuthin But a G Thang” and “California Love.” In the mid-’80s, Dre was “in surgery” at Compton roller rinks, cutting records for electro-rap paragons World Class Wreckin’ Cru. After ditching the shiny suits, he donned all black with N.W.A. and dropped Straight Outta Compton, bringing L.A. gangsta rap to the masses. Dre (and DJ Yella and Arabian Prince)...
HHW Gaming Review: ‘NBA 2K21’ Next-Gen Steps Its Game Up Visually, Still Not A Slam Dunk
Source: Visual Concepts/ NBA 2K21 When NBA 2K21 on current-gen systems first arrived in September, it was basically received like the no.1 pick in the NBA draft that doesn’t quite live up to expectations. But it’s clear where the development team at Visual Concepts and 2K were putting all the focus… in the next-gen version of the number 1 basketball video game franchise. Please make no mistake, NBA 2K21 Next-Gen is not its predecessor, specifically when it comes to how it looks and plays on Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5. When Visual Concepts said they rebuilt the game from the ground up, they were not kidding. NBA 2K21 Next-Gen is a completely new experience in many aspects but does incorporate some of the features introduced in NBA 2K21, first released back in Septembe...

As spotted on Hype Beast the people of Aurora, Colorado got the gift that keeps on giving; the state’s first ever In-N-Out Burger opened last week. Given that this was the first chain ever to be launched in The Centennial State the company expected a buzz about the grand opening. But the Irvine, California brand nor the local officials expected what happened on Friday, November 19. According to the report locals waited up to 12 hours to get their hands on their famous double double burgers. To prevent the spread of Covid-19 customers were only able to order food via the drive through thus it created super long...

WITHIN TEMPTATION’s SHARON DEN ADEL Discusses New Single ‘The Purge’ (Video)
Last Friday (November 19), Dutch heavy rockers WITHIN TEMPTATION released their brand new single “The Purge”, the follow-up to “Entertain You”. Frontwoman Sharon Den Adel told Germany’s Rock Antenne about the track (see video below): “‘The Purge’ is about self-reflection; that’s the main theme of the song. It’s about the choices in life everone makes. And sometimes when you make the big choices in life — what kind of life you’re gonna lead; how you’re gonna lead it; what political choices you make — everything you do in life, all these big choices, they have a certain effect also, of course, on people around you. We take one road, and you exclude a lot of other roads. And that also has an impact on other people’s...

Is RAINBOW Still An Active Band? RONNIE ROMERO Responds
In a new interview with Barbara Caserta of Italy’s Linea Rock, RAINBOW singer Ronnie Romero was asked about the current status of the band, four years after the Ritchie Blackmore-led outfit first reformed to play sporadic shows. He said (see video below): “Well, we are locked down. [Laughs] We will see. Obviously, nothing’s gonna happen next year. And Ritchie and [his wife] Candice [Night], they’re really focused on the new BLACKMORE’S NIGHT record. So probably if everything comes back to normality in the next few years, probably we’ll do some more shows. But at the moment, everything is on standby.” In May 2019, RAINBOW released a new digital single, “The Storm”, via Minstrel Hall Music. The song was described as “a rocked-up rem...

There was even talk about bringing back Gary Cherone, who sang with the band on one poorly received album, 1998’s “Van Halen III”.
