video review : American Sasquatch [ Man Myth Or Monster ]

I suspect the Sasquatch is a Myth. This documentary; the first from David Paulides not related to Missing 411; only reinforces my suspicion. Bigfoot as simply an undiscovered species of “flesh and blood ape” is intriguingly plausible. It’s the creature being given supernatural attributes, enabling it to literally disappear before you can get a good camera shot, that makes the eyes roll.

It’s a convenient excuse, in other words, for what is essentially a lack of evidence. People talk about their alleged encounters; one woman swears it stared into her bedroom window one night à la Peeping Tom; but the video/audio recordings are rather unconvincing. Sasquatches, even magical ones from “the spirit world”, might exist, but this doc, while interesting, fails to make the case.

audio review : A Miracle ( album ) … Lyrical Lively

audio review : A Miracle ( album ) ... Lyrical Lively

This is Lyrical Lively’s first album since going viral, but it seems to have been released in its demo stage. The drums on a couple of songs; Lost Sheep and Blind Bartimaeus; sound unintentionally clipped, but the most obvious flaw is the awful vocal edit on Stand Up For Jesus. Even he couldn’t forgive such a sin. Not that the set isn’t decent overall.
