WEEKEND reviewers rate three of music's newest tracks.
“The Promotion” is an average film. It leaves a feel-good taste in your mouth, but it goes away within an hour, because that’s as long as it takes to forget this movie.
“The Office” is easily one of the best comedies on TV, and even a weak season still trumps almost everything else.on the air.
The deeper Howard digs and the louder he gets makes him sound all the much better, but the quiet moments on Shine Through It are very sexy. And this sexiness is riddled with Spanish tinged guitars, lustful background vocals and a singer who knows how to seduce women.
Although Jeezy brings the heat on a couple great hits like “Amazin’” and “Put On,” at 18 tracks, The Recession is mostly filler and places Jeezy into a recession of his own.
Lost in the Sound of Separation is a watermark for any other band in the metalcore genre and absolutely Underoath’s best work to date. They’ve clearly weathered internal storms and separated themselves from everyone else.
Confusing, inconsistent and attempting (unsuccessfully) to mix dry wit and slapstick, “Hamlet 2” is almost entirely worthless, minus the 30 minutes involving the play itself.
The Pang Brothers succeed somewhat in their attempt at exhibiting Joe’s struggle between being a killer, being human and falling in love in "Bangkok Dangerous."
One of the easiest ways to discover different types of dance is through ballroom dancing. Though students might think of stiff-necked WASPs in black ties and cocktail dresses when they imagine ballroom dancing, that perception is far from true. Ballroom dancing provides a lot of diversity in terms of the styles learned, said junior Steven Torres. Torres started dancing the summer before his freshman year at IU. He’s now a junior and the captain of the group’s Dancesport competitive dance team. “I find Bloomington to be a very multicultural town,” Torres said. “Ballroom seems to fit right in with people trying to figure out what cultures they want to study.”
WIUX's station manager gives a rundown of dance music's most influential tracksIf there is one thing I hope people get from WEEKEND’s look at the dance scene, it’s that dance music not a monolithic glob of four-on-the-floor kick drums with noodley synth lines, big personalities and musicians using electronics as a crutch. Dancing and music are universal.
With Bloomington’s best DJs spinning and scratching, WEEKEND heads to the club
A party can be simply defined as “a social gathering.” Unfortunately, Noah Webster (the dictionary guy) didn’t choose to define it for us in its verb form.

On the back wall of the School of Fine Arts Gallery hangs LaRinda Meinburg’s “Urban Growth,” a piece for one of this fall’s shows, “HUB: A Collaboration of Art and Space.”On Oct. 3, the show’s pieces will be moved into trucks and transported to the McCalla School parking lot on the corner of 10th Street and Indiana Avenue. Meinburg said the moving trucks inspired the idea of her work and the materials she chose: paint and phone books.

The Bloomington Area Arts Council and regional partner Indiana Arts Commission have announced the recipients of the 2009 Regional Arts Partnership Grants. After being divided among 33 arts and nonprofit organizations, the grand total of the grants comes to $75,229.
INDIANAPOLIS – Indianapolis is tired of getting the run around. The Colts’ defense has traditionally been criticized for being too small, not having enough big-name playmakers and being soft against the run. Allowing rookie Matt Forte to gouge them for 123 yards in the season-opener certainly didn’t help the reputation.
