They are out on […]

Soul Jazz Records will soon release the new collection “Rumble in the Jungle” (not to be confused with the fantastic Muhammed Ali documentary). This is a compilation featuring Shut Up and Dance, Ragga Twins, General Levy, Cutty Ranks and more covering the late ’80s digital ragga period in the UK that led into the […]

Description: Here is the latest installment of our podcast. This is one of my favorite things to do for the store and I wish we had more time to put into it. We have some great ideas for how we want to shape our […]

This post is all about repeating things that have been previously successful. One time I posted a dismissive blog of a major motion picture I had not yet seen (and still haven’t…take that, “Freedom Writers”). I’m going to do the same thing again. Nicholas Cage was once a great actor who routinely […]

Time to shine some light on Chesapeake…particularly their library is badass. When other libraries are burning Harry Potter in the Rye, Chesapeake supports debauched, depraved, hard R geekdom with their hospitality towards Fantasmo, a free filmic orgy for cult heads. This unique event returns on June 15th at 8pm with a triple shot […]

This idea is apparently really happening. What’s more it’s going to be awesome. For one thing its about Spider-Man, and they’re somehow going to have to figure out how to depict webslinging in the confines of the stage musical. There is probably nobody better to do this than director Julie Taymor, who […]

The RTR team has not properly blogged or reviewed Jarvis Cocker’s new album yet. I guess we all assumed we didn’t have to, and I guess we are all asses for that, and I am puzzled as to why we still have this album in stock. Suffice it to say that I have […]

“Soundtracks from a dark movie about trains and rivers.”
That quote was taken from the “Sounds Like” catergory on Tulsa Drone’s myspace and frankly, I couldn’t agree more. Tulsa Drone, from Richmond, VA., pull the dark, Absinthe soaked memories from your mind and make you face them, no matter how unpleasent or unsettling they may be. […]

This is the official trailer for U.F.O.’s At The Zoo, a documentary and live concert video of “The Legendary Flaming Lips Concert at the OK City Zoo”. Based on this trailer it is going to be fun as hell to watch. No one puts on a show like the Lips.
Do Not Forget! They are playing […]

These guys will blow you away! Easily traversing the gray area between raw blues rock and atmospheric pysch-pop. They have a wide range of influnces, such as Ted Leo and the Pharmacists, Weird War, to Black Mountain, and Green Milk From the Planet Orange, to Yacht Rock. Be the first kid on your […]
