Weekly Picks From the Band

Book of the Week

The Demolished Man by Alfred Bester is an American science fiction police procedural novel set in a future where telepathy is common. Written 30 years before the 1980s cyberpunk boom, the novel anticipates that sub-genre with its mix of plot elements such as powerful corporations, high-tech weaponry and the interplay between varying classes of society.

Movie of the Week

Logan’s Run is a 1976 science fiction film based on the novel of the same name by William F. Nolan and George Clayton Johnson, directed by Michael Anderson. It depicts a Dystopian future society in which population and the consumption of resources are managed and maintained in equilibrium by the simple expediency of killing everyone who reaches the age of thirty, preventing overpopulation. The story follows the actions of Logan 5, a « Sandman, » as he « runs » from society’s lethal demand.

Album of the Week

Nigel Kennedy – Tchaikovsky & Sibelius: Violin Concertos
As one of the most successful classical performers of his time, violinist Nigel Kennedy’s genre-defying music helped him achieve a level of fame typically reserved for pop stars. In Violin Concertos, Kennedy seamlessly captures the beauty and essence of composers Tchaikovsky and Sibelius’ greatest works one note at a time.
