Much like the band that inspired it, the 2024 film “Pavements” defies classification. The film, directed by Alex Ross Perry, provides a glimpse into the creative process of 1990s slacker-indie-lofi rock band Pavement. Though the film is yet to be fully released, I attended its Minnesota premiere on Nov. 16 at The Main Cinema in Minneapolis, where it was being shown as part of the 25th Sound Unseen Film Festival.

"BRAT" - Charli XCXCharli XCX became everyone’s favorite reference this summer, taking social media and the music charts by storm with her newest album, "BRAT." The critically acclaimed record LP has risen to new heights, embracing the lifestyle of late nights out. Though every track has a hyperpop dance tempo, the lyrics vary from upbeat to deep and genuinely insightful. The opening song “360” instantly throws you into Charli’s viewpoint, encapsulating her persona and confidence immediately.
