UK power trio Tigercub are premiering a new Stone Gossard remix of their song “Show Me My Maker” exclusively via Consequence (listen below).
The original song appeared on Tigercub’s 2023 album, The Perfume of Decay, but has been given a sonic boost by the Pearl Jam guitarist, who co-produced the remix with Josh Evans. The band is signed to Gossard’s Loosegroove Records.
“I feel lucky as shit that Tigercub allowed me the chance to remix this track,” stated Gossard. “How many different ways is this song cool? The lyric, the groove, the heavy ass bass…it screams! So fun to listen to all the amazing individual performances and get to have fun reimagining how they fit together. Josh Evans and myself went for maximum dynamics and getting closer to Jamie’s lyrics. I hope you all enjoy. Tigercub is just scratching the surface of what they can do, I...

Pearl Jam guitarist Stone Gossard and Ani Difranco have collaborated on new song “Disorders” to raise awareness for reproductive rights and proceeds for the National Network of Abortion Funds.
The track — which also features work from saxophonist Skerik, Josh Evans, and Stanton Moore — starts as a soft rock song with some stark lyrics about the patriarchy. But for the last minute or so, the track turns into a drum and electric guitar-backed rock jam session.
“I have entered into negotiations/With the blissful abyss of disassociation,” sings Difranco. “And all...

Society rightfully worries about how artistic work, notably films, will harrowingly influence audiences, particularly young and impressionable youth. But often times the most gripping and influential projects are actually those that are inspired by the daunting experiences of troubled individuals who are unable to cope with the conflicts in their lives. Those disheartening troubles are powerfully showcased in director-producer Josh Evans’ new drama, ‘Death in the Desert,’ which is based on journalist and crime author Cathy Scott’s 2000 biographical book, ‘Death in the Desert: The Ted Binion Homicide Case.’ Like the book, the crime action adventure film, which is now available on VOD and On Demand from Osiris Entertainment, is [ Read More ]

The Tucson Festival of Films (Tfof) will close its inaugural edition with a 40th Anniversary screening of Martin Scorsese’s film "Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore" on Saturday, October 10, 2015. Starring Ellen Burstyn in her Academy Award-winning role, "Alice" was filmed in Tucson and surrounds.
Martin Scorsese said recently “'Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore' was my first studio picture. Ellen Burstyn had seen 'Mean Streets' and admired it, and that’s how I came to the project. I was intrigued and excited by the challenges of working in wide open spaces, something completely new to me; dealing with a way of life that was so different from what I knew; and telling the story of a single woman and mother who is more or less forced to reinvent herself and go on the road. I loved Tucson with its enormous desert skies and expanses and its beautiful light - it was an extraordinary place to shoot a movie. And I have so many wonderful memories of the shoot itself – working with Ellen and Diane Ladd, a very young Jodie Foster and Alfred Lutter, Kris Kristofferson, and my friend Harvey Keitel. I treasure my memories of the experience, and it means the world to me that this picture we made four decades ago will be closing the inaugural Tucson Festival of Films.”
In honor of the film’s 40th anniversary, Ellen Burstyn and Diane Ladd recently took part in an on-camera discussion of their experiences filming Alice. Their filmed conversation will follow the screening.
The film will be presented in 35mm at Tucson’s independent movie theater the Loft Cinema.
Tfof, presented by Cox Communications, will make its debut in Tucson, Az, October 8-10. In a unique collaboration, Tfof unites 8 established festivals. The festivals’ directors have curated the Tfof lineup, each selecting films that best represent their individual festivals. Participating festivals are Arizona International Film Festival, Arizona Underground Film Festival, Loft Film Fest, Native Eyes Film Showcase, Tucson Cine México, Tucson Film & Music Festival, Tucson International Jewish Film Festival and Tucson Terrorfest.
Tfof will allow audiences to experience the best of the fests under (mostly) one roof. Excepting the 35mm screening of "Alice" at the Loft, all screenings will take place at the Temple of Music and Art in downtown Tucson, one of the oldest cultural centers in Arizona.
In addition to the anniversary screening of Scorsese’s seminal film, the three-day event will showcase a selection of new features, documentaries and shorts and include Arizona Underground Film Festival’s World Premiere of Josh Evans’ "Death in the Desert" starring Michael Madsen.

Trial started Wednesday in a cyber-bullying trial with a federal prosecutor asking a Los Angeles jury to find that a Missouri woman "hatched a plot to prey on the psyche of a 13-year-old girl" that ended in suicide. U.S. Attorney Thomas O'Brien said Lori Drew posed as a 16-year-old boy in 2006 to flirt with her young neighbor Megan Meier – knowing Megan was both boy-crazy and depressed – then ended the online exchange by writing: "The world would be a better place without you." Megan wrote back, "You are the kind of boy a girl would kill herself over," O'Brien told the jury.
