Words cannot express how much I love The Civil Wars. Ever since they burst onto the scene with the wonderful pseudo Negro spiritual (in my mind)/morality tale Barton Hollow, I have been a moth draw to their flame. I own every album, including the unplugged session, so you know I was excited when they released their new track “The One That Got Away.” it is a quintessential Civil Wars song, from the beautiful orchestrations, stunning vocals and haunting lyrics. Check it out after the jump!
Given that I have seen a documentary about BDSM porn with explicit scenes, I am hard pressed to consider This Is the End the strangest film I’ve seen this year. However, it’s certainly the craziest thing to come out of a big studio in a while, with it’s million and one celeb cameos, raucous atmosphere, and wild twists and turns. To say that this film is funny would probably be an understatement, and yet the laughs don’t quite go as far as the running time of the jokes.
