Raging Bull
With that blazing new Mad Max trailer melting our heads and word that Jean-Claude Van Damme will be taking part in the remake of his fame-making Kickboxer film, Sarah decided to investigate what other fight films might benefit from a remake.
She wrote a list of them for Fightland.
To read what films she thinks might warrant a redo go here.

Meligrove Band
The Meligrove Band have long been an act I’ve been quite fond of. Their Planets Conspire album a few years back was amazing and their live shows are solid, high energy affair.
They’ve just put out a zesty new album called Bones Of Things, which I used as an excuse to interview the band about how integral they’ve been to the Canadian indie rock community.

Ikea’s red Kallax shelving unit. Not quite in place yet…
Back in February pre-fab furniture maker Ikea set off a giant record collector nerd panic when they announced they were discontinuing their Expedit shelving units. This hit close to home as we’ve got a few Expedits in our apartment to store our books, CDs ‘n’ junk and they’re basically the best, most cost-sensible way to store stuff like this.
A pile of my records have still been stored in some old milk crates and fruit boxes, though. It was time to upgrade to actual adult shelving units and to do so I’d have to buy the Expedit replacement, the looked-upon-with-great-suspicion Kallax shelving system.
So I did. I got a very suave red unit ($89 Canadian).
And I’m happy to report that after having assembled the Kallax and transferring the LPs… the world did NOT end. In fact, the unit actually looks kinda sharp.
