‘Don’t Stop Me Now’ – Queen – Track Of The Day

We’re in a zombie-killing mood here at The Arcade today! What better song to listen to while hacking your way through zombies than Queen‘s ‘Don’t Stop Me Now’ which was featured during the final scenes of the classic zombie hit, Shaun of the Dead. Have a flick through your music collection and think about what […]

‘Letter To Willow’ – Wyvern Lingo – Track Of The Day

Performing their single ‘Letter to Willow’ on the Late Late Show this March 5 and launching the EP on Friday April 1 in the Button Factory, this trio of Bray natives, Wyvern Lingo, is making waves in the Irish music scene. They recently performed with Hozier at Brixton Academy in London, one of several times […]

Perfect Playboys – Back Issues

The world of comics is vast, from Marvel to Image and Dark Horse to DC. And in this ever-expanding world of comics, we have plenty of different characters to choose our favourites from; superheroes, anti-heroes, villains, damsels in distress, psychopathic clowns and more. There have been plenty of characters over the years that I’ve loved […]

The Walking Dead S6 Ep 11 ‘Knots Untie’ Review

After the fun and surprises from the previous episode, I didn’t quite know what to expect in ‘Knots Untie’. I didn’t think the writers would continue steering the show far from its dark depths, and although they haven’t quite returned to the doom and gloom of seasons past, they’re definitely experimenting with some interesting new themes for the series. […]

‘Video Killed The Radio Star’ – The Buggles – Track Of The Day

Monday is a day where you just need some catchy tunes to get you in a good mood for the week ahead, and ‘Video Killed The Radio Star’ is the perfect contender for today. Released by The Buggles in 1979, and despite the fact that it’s about how one technology destroyed another, it has stood the […]

‘Battles’ – Hudson Taylor – Track Of The Day

From the debut album Singing For Strangers, ‘Battles’ is the gorgeous and uniquely weird tune from Hudson Taylor. An Irish folk duo band, their album released on the Irish music charts at No. 3 and it’s easy to see way. This song in particular is beautifully crafted and perfect for a lazy Sunday morning, with surprisingly […]

The Force Awakens Blu-Ray Release To Have 7 Deleted Scenes

Star Wars: The Force Awakens‘ Blu-Ray release will have seven deleted scenes, according to The Independent, and will feature more of Rey’s vision and some totally unseen footage as well. Editors of the latest movie, Mary Jo Markey and Maryann Brandon, have confirmed the news. Speaking about the scenes, Markey said, “I think there are […]

Alien Bat Arrows – Comicphiles

Deadpool-mania has taken over this week and, although I’m a fan of the character, the massive level of hype and expectations has made me gravitate away from Marvel and into the DC realm for this week’s Comicphiles. In the eternal battle between Marvel and DC, I’ll pick Marvel nine out of ten times, but this […]

‘Speeding Cars’ – Walking On Cars – Track Of The Day

I’m terrible for judging songs by their titles (and books by their covers), but this song by Walking On Cars seemed like the best place to try and fix my habit of judging before listening/ reading (mainly because the song/band title combo is awful). This band has just hit the mainstream scene and their debut album Everything […]

The Walking Dead S6 Ep 10 ‘The Next World’ Review

Last week, I reviewed the season 6 premiere of ‘No Way Out’ and, as it kicked off the second half of a great The Walking Dead season with a bang (and gushing praise from me), I was excited to see what this week’s episode offered. Whereas ‘No Way Out’ was all grief and tension and […]
