From now until the the 5^th of October you have yet another reason to visit Germany, yes it’s Oktoberfest. Granted I suppose you could just get really pissed and pretend you’re at this year’s traditional beer festival at home, but it wouldn’t be the same. The festival has 14 tents, all in the name of adding variation to the true goal of any beer fest, which is to get absolutely smashed and try your luck with the feisty locals or beer girls!

 Anyways as I was saying, there are 14 tents with everything you could ever want to accompany your beer and bratwurst, from hip-hop to rock, and I’m pretty sure there will be some sketchy local music and even some Morris dancing, too. If you’re not sold on the idea, there are more details here, but don’t come crying to me if you miss out. Be quick, raus, raus! – Couch

We’ve been listening to their album Think for the last couple of weeks and lo and behold now Lovvers have gone and sent us a video. Good lads. 

I have a friend called Lucifer (his real name is something like Matthew) and he runs around like a big goth, acting like hair metal didn’t end when the 80s did. He has long hair and wears make up, which isn’t that cool, but he listens to Skid Row, who are, so I suppose he’s alright really. This is for him, and you - Couch

Train stations are horrible places at the best of times. Sweaty carriages full of people, people you would gladly sacrifice just to have a seat. Trains are always late and there is always someone who wants to rob your phone. But at least in Japan they make it look a bit nicer, making Astro-boy from 138,000 re-used train tickets for Tokyo’s new Fukutoshin subway line. I don’t really know where that is in Japan, but it’s still pretty cool because it was done by volunteers, for nowt!

Now a quick history lesson, Astro-Boy was the first creation of the popular genre that is now known as Anime. He had pretty standard powers, super hearing, super strength and flight, but no one really cared because he was a robot, which made him a leper in the eyes of society (a powerful metaphor in 1950 I think you’ll agree). So whack that in your peace pipe! – Couch

Just posted a track by German band Press Gang for your listening pleasure. They totally fucking rip basically and that has absolutely nothing with nepotism (singer Lennart is a bro’s bro). I mean, come on, this is business. Enjoy   

After long discussions about the benefits of movies like the Goonies, and the Lost Boys, Ferris Bueller and basically anything with Corey Feldman in it and the effect they’d had on our impressionable teenage/child like minds; we decided that the next generation will suck, because movies for kids just aren’t what they used to be.I mean try making Top Gun again…you wouldn’t even dare! - Couch

Watching this dude use the words ‘cooked beautifully’ a coupla hundred times a minute as it’s the final of Masterchef - The Professionals.

Corey Feldman is back! Killing vampires and shaping surfboards as Edgar Frog in The Lost Boys (2) – The Tribe. Although it isn’t technically a sequel, but more of a “hey, let’s do the same story but with newer people and stunts and use Corey Feldman to simulate that cult classic vibe that the first Lost Boys was soaked in.” At least I’m pretty sure that’s how the conversation would have gone, when it was on the drawing board; that and releasing it straight to DVD! Buy the original and numero dos for a whole tenner from Amazon if you so wish – Couch

We know this will be thick with middle aged men on colour-coded fixed gear bikes doing amazing tricks like…cycling…. and erm wheelies, but in spite of that London’s Bicycle Film Festival, which kicks off next Thursday (the 25th), looks epic. The list of feature films and documentaries is far, far, far too long to do justice here, so instead watch this clip from one of the flicks we’d like to see, Les Ninjas Du Japon, and go to the festival site for times/listings.
