It's me! I'm back again, here to recap the year in music! You may remember my article last year, where I crowned Kanye West's spectacular album Yeezus as the best album of 2013. I then challenged 2014 to beat 2013, for the latter was an incredible year for music. And 2014 flexed its muscles and proved to be a...

Normally I don't say this with films, but believe the hype. Because Whiplash is not only an amazing film, but it's also one of the greatest films to come out of this year. Already heralded as one of the best films of the year and winner of the Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance...
AC/DC
Rock Or Bust Album Review
Albert/Columbia Records
Released December 2, 2014
Genre: Hard Rock
AC/DC is one of the most instantly recognizable bands out there today. The amount of music and influence they've produced to the world has been almost omnipresent. Known for their instantly catchy songs, lightning fast riffs, and their numerous "amp to 11" hits," it'd be almost impossible to be...
2014 was kind of a disappointment when it came to video games. In fact, some of the best games were in fact re-releases of older games, but this article isn't about those. This is because there were many good games that attempted to fill the void of bad ones, so many that one cannot decide what game truly deserves...
When I asked my fellow classmates if they had ever heard of the Metal Gear franchise, few had any idea what I was talking about. I find it kind of ironic that the franchise that created the stealth genre revolutionized 3rd person gameplay, and always attempted to be the best at telling stories in its own medium was, for...
Ubisoft has had their fair share of disappointments and failures this year when it comes to game releases, excluding Valiant Hearts, one of my favorite games this year. Far Cry 4 helps break their bad streak and delivers to its audience after the success of its predecessor: Far Cry 3.

SPOILER ALERT: No Fixed Address by Nickelback is awful. For all of the die-hard Nickelback fans out there, this new album is comprised of 11 songs that sound identical. This album sinks so low that it features an equally irrelevant artist, Flo Rida, for one song "Got Me Runnin' Round." Nickelback's feeble attempt to remain relevant, hilarious as it...
