magazine that has had the gall to have
Lydia Lunch interview Pat Benatar,
Joey Ramone interview Pia Zadora,
Richard Hell write a review of the accu
racy of Alex Cox's "Sid and Nancy" and
Tama Janowitz write a story about sex
ism in rock. And they want Scott Har
rah to write for them.
Need I say more?
2. Matter
Matter is essentially a fanzine. It's
published independently of huge a
mounts of money, and it specializes in
what has come to be known as alterna
tive music.
But Matter has quality writers, among
them Big Black's Steve Albini and
Gerard Cosloy, both bastards with a big
dinosaur bone to pick with popular
culture. Matter is also slick and
graphically adventurous. Its profiles on
the nation's local music scenes are
comprehensive and well-researched.
3. Bucketful of Brains
It may sound like I made this up, but
I didn't. Another slick, accessible
publication, despite the name. The
writing is so-so but with the flcxi-disc
in every issue it ranks right up there
with Matter.
4. Option
Option tries to tackle a few too many
styles of music for its own good, but the
pieces are well-written and the record,
cassette, CD and single reviews are
incredible, tackling everything they
get their hands on.
Option gets all kinds of little friendly
kudos from me for being so accessible
to anyone trying to advertise a cassette
or indie album. Their staff is obviously
open to anything that encourages ad
venture and variety in music.
'All Nighter 's ' laughs
pull it out of gutter,
but still not hit flick
By Kevin Cowan
Staff Reporter
With the onslaught of summer
comes the endless barrage of "party"
genre films. The "All Nighter," in its
own strangely surrealistic way, spews
out the first of the get drunk, get
laid and have whopping loads of fun
summer-rite movies.
Movie Review
C'mon, it'd be ludicrous to try to
give a truly objective, analytical
review of this flick. Besides, it's
been a long semester and I have
finals this week as do all of you
and, well, I don't feel like being
serious. Let's face it, you know the
plot without even a prior screening.
Or, I guess, the lack of plot. But
that's not important.
I think the crux here is: Was it
entertaining, or does it in one way or
another provoke young surfin' wan-na-be's
to vivid summer drinkin',
scoffin' life. Well, sort of. With the
use of a couple of new and interest
ing characters, and a bunch of over
stereotyped cliches, the movie hauls
up a few belly laughs from time to
time.
Susanna Hoff of the Bangles plays
the oversexed, unfulfilled college
graduate-to-be. Her role is truly
drab. She movies in and out of the
movie with all the action happening
around her often as a result of
her involvement. Still, she remains
the heroine who decides her hunk surfer
isn't so bad after all. Kinda silly.
It's little wonder that Susanna
received a role her mother,
Tamar Simon Hoff, was the director.
Obviously it was Mrs. Hoffs first
shot at making a 35m film.
The "All Nighter" does, however,
bring to the sun and surf a new
avatar the metaphysical surfer.
The character, Killer, brings the
film out of the gutter at times when
you feel it'd just be better to get
thrown out. One of those dudes who
just runs around, surfs and has
intellectual conversations with coral
and seaweed. His performance at
the fiesta is a classic. Go see it.
If it's hot and you're bored, if you
want to spend two bucks for some
air conditioning. Drink. Then go see
the lead dog of bad summer movies.
"The All Nighter" is playing
at the State Theatre.
