The Shouting Matches | Grownass Man

This album was a bit of slow burn for me, I picked it up, listened to some of the tracks and never really came back to it. Then ‘Heaven Knows’ came up on shuffle one day while I was walking through town. The song is filthy, it’s got some electric slide that’s straight from the…

Hisense shows off their 6.8-inch X1 phone

Just how big is too big when it comes to the phone you carry with you everyday? Depends who you ask I suppose. I can’t imagine comfortably using anything bigger than my current phone which is 5-inches, but as any Galaxy Note user might tell you, bigger is better. If that sounds like you than…

T-Mobile wants to send your carrier a break up letter.

In its latest “uncarrier” move, T-Mobile has pulled no punches. The company says it will pay your (and your whole families) ETF fees at your current carrier if you are switching to T-Mobiles network from Verizon, AT&T, or Sprint.

Father John Misty | Fear Fun

Let me just start this one off with what is hands down one of the best lines in any song I’ve heard recently: “I ran down the road, pants down to my knees Screaming ‘please come help me, that Canadian shaman gave a little too much to me!’” The song is “I’m Writing a Novel”…
