Another Coen Brothers Masterpiece
By Mel Valentin (Oct 9, 2009)
Rating: 5 out of 5 stars.

Less a laugh-inducing absurdist farce than a head-scratching existential black comedy, A Serious Man belongs in the same category as the Coen Brothers better (or even best) films. More

Not Believable…or Funny
By Matt Forsman (Oct 9, 2009)
Rating: 1.5 out of 5 stars.

Conceived and written by Jon Favreau and Vince Vaughn (of Swingers fame), Couples Retreat is a frighteningly contrived and clichéd romantic comedy. More

Believe the Hype
By Matt Forsman (Oct 9, 2009)
Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars.

Film critics can become a bit jaded over time. The sad reality is that most films released in a given year just simply aren’t worth your time. Most studios are more focused on demographics and marketing, rather than crafting a quality story. But, sometimes the simplest ideas make the best films and sometimes you can actually believe the marketing hype. Paranormal Activity is not just one of the scariest films you will see this year, it is also one of the best films you will see this year. More

Released on Rough Trade Records, 10/6/09
By lynne angel (Oct 8, 2009)
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars.

Alela Diane has been touring incessantly over the past year to support the success of her third release, To Be Still. Released last February on Rough Trade, it is wonderfully layered, both delicate and commanding, and a wholly significant modern folk album in structure and sound. More

Released on Dangerbird, 8/18/09
By Kirsty Evans (Oct 8, 2009)
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars.

Dark and dreamy, tranquil and strange, Division Day’s Visitation is a big step forward for the band. After the critically acclaimed Beartrap Island, the band were in a bit of an odd place, finding themselves with a much loved album that didn’t really represent what they felt they were all about -- and what they’ve come back with after a period of reexamination is rather unexpected More

Released on Arts & Crafts, 7/28/09
By Kirsty Evans (Oct 8, 2009)
Rating: 5 out of 5 stars.

Mellow and skillfully performed, redolent of nostalgia for more than one great musical decade and yet with a timeless Southern vibe, this is the sort of album people of all ages who appreciate great music will love. More

Island Fever
By Matt Crawford (Oct 8, 2009)
The Treasure Island Music Festival returns October 17th and 18th, marking the end of the 2009 Bay Area music festival season. In its third year, the formula for the event largely remains the same, with a mix of electronic/dance music (mostly Saturday) and indie rock (mostly Sunday). SF Station caught up with several acts on the bill to find out their most memorable festival moments of 2009 and what they would bring if they were stranded on the island for two days. More

Last Night a DJ Saved My Life
By Christina Li (Oct 7, 2009)
A definitive stable to the rising dubstep scene, DJ Kozee knows how to hold her grime down in a genre dominated by men. With a spunky attitude reflected in her bass thumping tracks, her short yet prolific career is definitely headed in the direction of success. Acquiring quite a nifty name for herself, DJ Kozee chats with SF Station about her rise to fame. More

Local Teachers Win Shopping Sprees, Classroom Funds
By Jialin Luh (Oct 2, 2009)
Everyday we’re bombarded with dismal headlines about record jobless rates, seemingly never ending budget deficits, terror threats and crime. Amidst the doom and gloom, there are still people and organizations doing positive things, keeping a glimmer of hope alive (as cliché as that sounds). A shining example: three Bay Area teachers recently won donations for classroom supplies and shopping sprees for wardrobe makeovers made possible by nonprofit Adopt-a-Classroom, apparel clothing Jones New York and Macy’sMore

Art Imitating Life
By Richard von Busack (Oct 2, 2009)
Rating: 3 out of 5 stars.

"Passing Strange" is the one-named artist Stew’s autobiographical hit rock musical, as recorded during its closing night at the Belasco Theater in New York in summer 2008, deftly filmed by Spike Lee for television and now having a limited theatrical run. To someone who absorbed from the very vibe of L.A. that black people were the Otherest Other of them all, it’s passing strange to see how similar life was just a few exits east down the Santa Monica Freeway. More
