Kaiser Chiefs fall short on ‘Yours Truly’
By Kate Manegold and By Lulani Dubbles | Apr. 9, 2007Every so often, a band comes along that is hailed as the recurrence of the British invasion—the next Beatles, Kinks, or Rolling Stones. Most recently, the Arctic Monkeys were hyped to high heaven, but in 2005 it was the Kaiser Chiefs who led the way for the return of Brit pop-rock. With their howling single ""I Predict A Riot"" and cheeky cockney charm, the band convinced desperate music fans all over Britain and the United States that rock ‘n' roll had finally returned. Although their impact was not quite so huge in America as in their homeland, the Kaiser Chiefs still sold millions of records and left fans in eager anticipation of their latest release, Yours Truly, Angry Mob.

Say Hi’s quirky pop ‘impeccable’ on latest
By Michelle Turner and Kate Manegold | Mar. 7, 2007In his past albums, Say Hi to Your Mom frontman Eric Elbogen has been known to spill his angst into clever songs about spaceships and robots; however, on the band's fourth and newest release, Impeccable Blahs, he chose to move onto a slightly darker material. The liner notes explicitly state that ""Impeccable Blahs is a record about vampires."" However, they are ""not creepy goth vampires but rather people like you and me who happen to get their nourishment from drinking blood."" An interesting subject matter for a band that once specialized in detailing the angst of girls and video games, but it works well for them. Elbogen continues to write witty lyrics, this time using vampire tendencies as a metaphor for romantic human love, resulting in an album that is both fun and intelligent.

Based on the successful young adult novel by Annette Curtis Klause, the movie focuses on 19-year-old Vivian (Agnes Brucker), teenage girl by day and dangerous werewolf by night, and her struggle to choose between life as a mortal or as a ""loup-garoux,"" running wild at night with her pack.
