| | Zebraman DVD (1 Customer Review)
The year is 2010. Shinichi (Sho Aikawa) is a 2nd-rate 3rd-grade teacher who gets no respect from his family and little from his students. It seems that in 1978 he fell in love with a TV super hero named Zebraman that was canceled shortly after airing. The show was set in 2010 so this year he sews himself a makeshift Zebraman costume and slinks around the city at night. His harmless escapism becomes reality when he runs into a half crab half man enemy of the same TV show and begins to realize the stories of Zebraman and his strange alien enemies were actually prophecy and that by making his Zebraman suit he elected himself to fulfill those prophecies. Prolific Japanese director Takashi Miike (AUDITION) helms this frenetic action-comedy hybrid about a grown man who dresses up as a beloved superhero named "Zebraman." The fun and excitement begin when he runs across another masked man, but this character has villainy on the brain. Theatrical Release: February 14, 2004 (Japan)

Zebraman film
$27.85 NO HEAVY PETTING was the 1976 release by U.K. hard rockers UFO, featuring "Natural Thing."
This reissue is what re-masters are all about. While the original master of UFO's HEAVY PETTING buried the quintet's sonic attack in a muddy mix, this one rediscovers their power and mints the band as a crucial link between early-`70s blues-based hard rock and late-`70s British heavy metal. Every track sounds exhilarating here--including the way-over-the-top electric harpsichord on "Belladonna"--and will rekindle any rock fan's love for these under-appreciated shredders. This reissue includes five previously ...

| | Chris Stamey Travels In The South CD (2004)
Zebraman DVD
$13.75 A founding leader of the influential cult band the dB's, Chris Stamey has spent most of last 15 years producing other people's discs (Alejandro Escovedo, Yo La Tengo, Whiskeytown) rather than creating his own. Not counting a 1995 instrumental album, Travels in the South marks his first record since 1991, when he released both the solo Fireworks and Mavericks, a duet disc with his old dB's partner Peter Holsapple. South, however, shows little sign of rustiness. The album kicks off with the glorious "14 Shades of Green," a chimey gem that takes a nostalgic look at a hometown. This leadoff track also establishes the theme of traveling that runs through the disc. Songs like "Insomnia," "Ride," and the title track all touch upon the feeling of life in transit. The sublime "In Spanish Harlem" takes a Paul Simon-esque look at New York City but with a decidedly eased-back Southern tempo. The entire album, in fact, rides along at a leisurely pace, with the majority of songs surpassing the four-minute mark. But Stamey uses his production savvy to build these songs into "mid-life symphonies," to make Brian Wilson's phrase more age-appropriate. A solitary piano and mournful pedal steel help to accentuate the longing in "Insomnia." A Byrds-ian guitar riff weaves through "Alive" and heavenly Beach Boys harmonies swell in "Kierkegaard." "And I Love Her," a prototypical Stamey love ballad, deftly blends '50s pop with the Beatles. It all results in a lovely, shimmery sound that won't disappoint fans of melodic rock music. Travels in the South reveals that Stamey remains ever the pop craftsman. Hopefully, he won't wait as long to craft his next disc. ~ Michael Berick

| | Mission Of Burma Gun to the Head CD 2 CD Set
Zebraman movie DVD
$12.75 Taking its cue from late-1970s British art-punks like Wire and Gang of Four, Boston's Mission of Burma developed a unique, angular sound that was at once pre-eminent in and definitive of the burgeoning US post-punk scene. For a band whose initial studio recordings consisted only of one full album and one EP, they were enormously influential, so this compilation comes off like the Dead Sea Scrolls of American indie rock, nearly every song foreshadowing a group that would appear years later. Things kick off with the band's signature song, "That's When I Reach for My Revolver," which combines tension and discord with moodiness and melancholy (and was covered over 15 years later by Moby). That combination of friction and lyricism proves key as A GUN TO THE HEAD hits the high points of Burma's studio output and live recordings, painting a picture of a band too fractious and mercurial to stay together for long, but too powerful to be forgotten.
Recorded between 1981 & 1985. Includes liner notes by Crawling Smash.

| | Down And Out With The Dolls DVD (2003)
Zebraman review
$7.09 After the turbulent dissolution of her famed Portland, Oregon punk band, The Snogs, well-known scenester Fauna (Zoe Poledouris) meets young, enthusiastic guitar player Kali (Nicole Barrett) in a coffee house. Kali asks her to start a new group, and Fauna is not interested---until she sees Kali talking to Levi (Coyote Shivers), a local boy who has achieved underground success with his band, The Suicide Bombers. The girls' resulting band is The Paper Dolls--rounded out by sweet-natured record store clerk Lavender (Melody More) on bass, and emerging lesbian Reggie (Kinnie Starr) on drums. The Dolls create a big Portland buzz, even securing a deal with big-time independent label Pop-Up Records. But Fauna's conniving begins to cause a serious rift in the Dolls' foundation, finally coming to a head during a raucous party at their house.
Sometime Allison Anders (GAS FOOD LODGING) collaborator Kurt Voss infuses this low-budget production with a great deal of energy and some memorable songs, compensating for performances by non-professionals (including a funny turn from Lemmy of Motorhead) and occasionally murky digital photography. A virtual catalog of underground rock stereotypes, DOWN AND OUT WITH THE DOLLS is sure to elicit a nod of recognition from anyone who is familiar with the world it depicts.
