King Krule lives under the permacloud on ‘Man Alive!’

Ryan Israel | Friday, February 28, 2020

The permacloud comes to South Bend in November, stays till March or April and brings with it gloom, melancholia and seasonal depression. The weather in London is surprisingly similar: cloudy, rainy and grey. These meteorological conditions affect our attitudes and dispositions, and, in turn, the art we consume and create.  Archie Marshall, who performs most

Rain-soaked streets and chocolate croissants: The things we miss

Claire Rafford | Thursday, February 6, 2020

When I first arrived in South Bend as a freshman almost three years ago, it couldn’t have felt less like home to me.

‘Fleabag’ scratches an itch for comedy-seeking audiences

Caroline Lezny | Wednesday, September 18, 2019

“I sometimes worry I’d be less of a feminist if I had bigger tits,” Fleabag says in the midst of a silent Quaker meeting.

Ryan Israel | Wednesday, September 19, 2018

When Drake talks, people listen. It’s one of the many benefits of being the most popular artist in a generation equipped with the internet and social media.

‘Darkest Hour’ Review

Charlie Kenney | Tuesday, January 30, 2018

In my previous reviews of historical, non-fiction films, I have discussed the difficulty of adapting these works for the screen.
