Battle of the bands returns to Congress Elise McClain

attle of the Bands is back. After a brief threeyear hiatus, Battle of the Bands is revamped and returning this Saturday at Hotel Congress. A venue open to all genres and musicians 21 and under, finalists for the event include The Looks, Weird Guilty Pleasures, Kyle Gallardo, Creating the Scene and Roman Barten-Sherman & the Interstellar Blues Orchestra. “This is something I grew up with in Tucson,” said Matt Paquet, events coordinator and booking agent at Hotel Congress. “They used to hold it at the [Rialto Theatre] and it was a big deal every year. I thought it was a really great thing and was sad to see it go in 2012, so I decided to bring it back this year. It was an integral part of my generation, and a lot of the guys I grew up with continue to write and produce music. I think a lot of that started with Battle of the Bands.” Nearly 15 young artists threw their hats into the ring, undergoing an application and elimination process before a panel of judges, and only five acts emerged. Ultimately, the five remaining bands will be evaluated on their recording sound,

crowd response as well as overall judge opinion. A whole spectrum of genres will be represented at Battle of the Bands. Artists ranging from Kyle Gallardo, 19, who describes his work as traditionally darker, to Jake Walters, 17, lead vocalist and keyboardist for Creating the Scene, who describes the band’s work as indie pop rock. Gallardo attributes a lot of his musical inspiration to bands like Radiohead, and his lyrical inspiration to author Chuck Palahniuk. Dropping his first EP Uneventful on Jan. 31, Gallardo is new to the live performance aspect of his music. “My music is pretty minimalistic,” Gallardo said. “As far as the lyrics go, they’re based off a short story I wrote about a man waking up one day and realizing how unhappy and mad he is with his life. The man sees red; all he wants to do is murder his wife. Though he knows he shouldn’t, in the end it gets the better of him. My lyrics follow a plot, a storyline.” As for Walters and Creating the Scene, this does not mark their first performance. Relative veterans to the youth scene, Creating the Scene has played numerous venues, including the Rialto and Club Congress.

“Our songs are about a lot things,” Walters said. “I’m kind of like the Taylor Swift of Creating the Scene. I write about breakups. We deal with a lot of teenage angst too, but mixed with actually relevant things. It’s music that you can cry to but also jam out to, too.” The top-three acts of the competition will receive recording sessions. Other prizes include private headlining showcase, a radio spot on KXCI, music gear and numerous gift cards. All five bands will walk away from the battle with something. “People should expect to walk away having their minds blown by these young kids that are playing music,” Baquet said. “They’re good. And that’s kind of what it’s all about, just bringing light to the young guys trying to make it happen in this scene.” Battle of the Bands opens at 3 p.m. at Hotel Congress, free to all ages. Following performances by the finalists, band Sun Bones will conclude the night with a show. “We’re excited,” Walters said. “Thanks to anyone who comes out and supports us Saturday.” — Follow Elise McClain @DailyWildcat

Marvel rankings T Alex Guyton

wildcat weekend • 3 he film to start off the 2015 summer movie season will inarguably be the biggest. On May 1, Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, The Incredible Hulk and company will join forces once again to avenge the Earth and take on the James Spader-voiced mecha-villain, Ultron. The Marvel journey to this point has been as long as one of Loki’s ill-timed monologues, with seven years and 10 films. Let’s rank the top nine.

1

Marvel Entertainment

“Captain America: The Winter Soldier” — The safety and integrity of global law enforcement entity S.H.I.E.L.D., which took six years and multiple films to establish, is deconstructed in two hours in this multi-layered espionage thriller.

2

“Iron Man” — The film that sparked the super hero renaissance all the way back in 2008 still stands as one of the best, with the second coming of cowls and capes also bringing Robert Downey Jr. a renewed career. Paramount Pictures

4

Marvel Studios

“Marvel’s The Avengers” — Director and screenwriter Joss Whedon should be commended for successfully bringing six huge (figuratively and literally) personalities into one entertaining popcorn blockbuster.

Paramount Pictures

“Guardians of the Galaxy” — Marvel’s C-list space rejects shot into the VIP lounge with unique characters, humor and a throwback soundtrack.

Marvel Studios

5

6

“Thor” — The most colorful world, Asgard, and the most colorful villain in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Loki, anchored this introduction to the god of thunder. Paramount Pictures

7

“Iron Man 2” — Though this saw the introduction of one of the most popular Marvel mainstays in Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow, this was surprisingly hohum, especially given that Mickey Rourke acted the villain.

3

“Captain America: The First Avenger” — Like Captain America himself, this period-piececum-superheromovie was just as vanilla as the beefed-up Boy Scout. Paramount Pictures

8

9

“Thor: The Dark World” — Dark elves and a villain named Malekith: If only this one was a fraction of the quality of “The Lord of the Rings.” Mercifully, it wasn’t as long.

“Iron Man 3” — Intriguing allusions to the current state of terrorism were undercut by unsatisfying late-game revelations and a plot as wonky as a malfunctioning robot. Marvel Studios

Alum to screen doc feature ‘Almost There’ Victoria Pereira Aaron Wickenden, a UA alumni from the class of 2000, is returning to Tucson for the showing of his documentary feature “Almost There” this Friday at 6 p.m. at The Screening Room. After the show, he will also be hosting a Q&A session for audience members. Wickenden, a documentary editor, co-directed this film about an elderly artist and sat down with the Daily Wildcat to chat about himself, his work and his journey. When did you first get involved in film? When I was in high school in Flagstaff, NAU had a television show that they would broadcast out on public access television, and it was for their filmmaking 101 production class. I started watching that while I was in high school, and I got really sucked into the movies that they were showing in that class, like “Citizen Kane” or some of the early Stanley Kubrick movies. That piqued my interest in film and made me pursue the program ultimately at the UA. What is “Almost There,” and where did the idea for the film come from? Back in 2006, my friend and I were at the regional festival in Indiana called “Pierogi Fest.” We brought our camera and were all excited to see this gigantic piece of food, and while we were walking along the boardwalk, we came across this incredible artist named Peter Anton that was doing pastel portraits of children at the time. He was set up at an old rickety table and he had a bag with him, and inside the bag were scrapbooks filled with vernacular photography and artwork and drawings, and they were covered in glitter and kind of chewed up and fascinating. We gave him our address and he started writing us postcards during the holidays inviting us over to see the rest of the books. We went to his place and saw the rest of the scrapbooks — there were 12 in total — and we were amazed. We thought this guy should have a show of his art, so we started filming the process of collaborating with him to put on this … show for Peter. He was 80 years old, so this was going to be the big triumph celebration of his work, and the film goes on to document how we collaborated on the show with him only to have this sudden interest in his life and his work generate some questions about his past in a pretty dramatic way. What is the main message that you want the audience to take away from “Almost There”? The subject of our film, his main purpose for wanting to make the film,

is that he thought his story was one of perseverance and how even when a person struggles through physical disabilities and through poverty like he has, his story can show that you can triumph despite all these obstacles. Normally, you don’t see stories like this about elderly characters like Peter, but I think people will get a lot out of that type of story. What’s your favorite thing about your job? My favorite thing is the collaborative aspect of filmmaking and that with documentary editing in particular. I’m working with the director and the producer in a creative way to write the film. Usually the films that I work on, the filmmakers have been working on it for years with deep passion. They’ve recorded hundreds of hours of footage and I’m encountering them at the point

where they’re finally ready to start carving that material and creating the story in the edits, and the edit could go millions of ways. The way in which an editor shapes the tone and the style and the pace and the energy of the film, all of those creative challenges are extremely satisfying to me. As I’ve gotten to be a more proficient editor, I feel like I’ve gained the ability to take content and shift it in a myriad of ways to create the kind of impact that I’m looking for. What’s the most difficult? What I mentioned before is the most creatively satisfying aspect, but it’s also one of the most difficult. Being able to take that footage and shape it into something that makes sense for an audience and is compelling and cinematic is incredibly difficult.

What advice would you give to current film students or college students in general? Internships. I got extremely lucky during the time I was at U of A — interning for Richard Avedon — and when I graduated from school, I still pursued a variety of internships. Each one was tremendously valuable in helping me figure out the direction of my career path, and all of them lead to me figuring out that I wanted to be a documentary filmmaker. You want to hone in and figure out what you love to do. A person can tell the difference between when they’re really excited about something and they’re fired up and passionate about a job or a career path and when they feel like they’re doing something because they think they should be doing it. — Follow Victoria Pereira @vguardie917

t is easy to get caught up in the charmed life of the typical college student and forget those who struggle with basic living necessities. For children in the Republic of Mali, the life that the average 20-yearold has in the U.S. is a far-away luxury that many cannot even imagine. Rachel Barnitt, a sophomore studying business and engineering, came in touch with the reality Mali children face first hand. Over the past few summers, Barnitt said she and her family housed Mohamed Tangara, a former UA basketball player from Mali. Tangara is not only a pro basketball player now, but he is also a close family friend of the Barnitts. While he travels around the world playing basketball, Tangara stays close to his roots and frequently visits Mali, working with Malian children. In a press

release with All Sports Tucson, Tangara said he tries to use his influence in Mali to benefit the struggling youth. “I want to have a talk with the youth and use my influence in Mali,” Tangara said in the release. “I can do it by bringing something from the [U.S.] I can talk to them about the [U.S.], give them gifts from the [U.S.] and tell them the [U.S.] is your friend, not your enemy.” Working with Barnitt, Tangara set a goal of collecting 10,000 UA T-shirts that he can distribute to Malian children when he visits the country. Barnitt took Tangara’s dream and set it into action. As a highly involved honors student, she used her connections with the Honors College to turn Tangara’s goal into reality. “I am a board member on HCA and thought it would be a great philanthropy opportunity for our club,” Barnitt said. And while donating T-shirts may seem like a small act, Barnitt said that every bit helps out.

“It is important to send T-shirts to children in Mali because many of the people live in poverty and without access to basic supplies like clothes, as well as being affected by the current problems facing the country of Mali,” Barnitt said. “The country of Mali is facing [a lot] of political, economic and health-related issues. Their schools have limited supplies and resources, and some children are without even basic clothes.” T-shirts cannot solve the socioeconomic issues plaguing Mali, but they can be the difference between a child in Mali wearing proper clothes or rags. There are clear plans for how to get the shirts to Mali. “Mohamed [already has] plans to travel to Mali and has connections to schools in Mali that he has worked with in the past,” Barnitt said. Barnitt noted that the T-shirt drive is also an opportunity to empower Malian children by speaking to them about the possibilities that

extend far from their village. “Mohamed’s profile in Mali has risen significantly this past year after he led the Mali national basketball team to its first win over Senegal in 26 years this past winter,” Barnitt said. “Because of Mohamed’s increased profile, he is seen as a role model to the children. He hopes to influence them positively by speaking with them when he goes to pass out shirts.” Barnitt will be collecting used UA T-shirts until May 7. She encourages students to attach a short note to each donated shirt as a message to the child receiving it. There are collection bins at the Slonaker House and at Árbol de la Vida Residence Hall in Room C-124 for those interested in donating.

Safe raving with residents on campus Chelsea Cook

H

ave you ever wanted to be a part of a schoolwide dance party on the UA Mall? Well, if the answer is yes, then your dream will be fulfilled on Saturday night. The Residence Hall Association and The Board at the UA have joined together to throw a rave on the Mall for all UA students. “The purpose of this event is to raise awareness as to the dangers of alcohol and rave culture, and to promote healthy and safe decisions on campus,” said Sarah Mason, vice president of programming for the RHA and a sophomore studying care, health and society and nutritional sciences. Although this is the primary purpose of the event, it also provides an alternative Saturday night outing for students who would otherwise go out to parties that provide

alcohol or other illegal substances. Overall, the rave is meant to give students a night of clean fun in a safe environment. Raves began in the late 1980s on the Mediterranean island of Ibiza. From there, they spread across countries and continents until rave culture was found all over the U.S. In a talk on NPR called, “How the Internet Transformed the American Rave Scene,” Ariel Meadow Stallings discussed the negative side of rave culture. “I still do believe it wasn’t all about drugs,” Stallings said. “But it is a drug culture. Even if you’re not on drugs, the culture of the party is determined by the fact that there are people who are.” The drug MDMA, otherwise known as Ecstasy, was made increasingly popular by rave culture and, of course, is also incredibly dangerous. Raves are dangerous places to frequent, as stated on the FBI’s web page in an article

I CHOOSE ME Mentoring Program

•Help kids succeed •Be a mentor to youth ages 8-17 •Service projects with group work

entitled, “Tips for Parents: The Truth About Club Drugs.” “[Raves] are dangerously over-crowded parties where your child can be exposed to rampant drug use and a high-crime environment,” the page says. “Numerous overdoses are documented at these events.” Because these typical raves are highly dangerous for multiple reasons, the RHA and The Board decided to hold the rave as a sort of public service announcement that will hopefully teach students about the dangers of rave culture. Throughout the event, which will take place on the Mall at 8 p.m., there will be dancing, a DJ, mocktails, cornhole, Giant Jenga and giant Pong. Additionally, there will be other educational activities like “drunk goggles” that show students the effect of certain drugs and alcohol. The RHA and The Board have been planning this event since last December.

“This event is based off of an event called Rainbow Rave that occurred last year,” Mason said. “However, we have made quite a few changes to what the program was back then.” Although major changes were made to the event itself, the core values and principles of the rave remain the same. The target audience of the rave is all UA students, but there is an extra push for students living on campus to attend. “I think this event has tremendous potential to draw a large number of students,” Mason said. “We have put a lot of effort into guaranteeing a high energy and enjoyable environment that promotes safety while still allowing for students to get the most out of their Saturday night.”

Sparkroot Each week the Daily Wildcat rates Tucson’s coffee shops based on their hipster value on a scale of one to five hipsters. See how your favorite cafe stacks up in our hipster ranking Jacquelyn Oesterblad Let’s not drag this out. Sparkroot is a five hipster kind of place. It serves iced slowbrew coffee with chicory in mason jars alongside a vegetarian food menu that features granola and sweet potato tacos. It attaches the bathroom keys to bike handlebars. It’s always air-conditioned to about 60 degrees to accommodate the hipster habit of wearing flannel in the desert. It’s hip as hell. It’s also a great place. Sparkroot shares a corner at the intersection of Congress Street and Fifth Avenue with Hotel Congress, the Hub and Proper. It’s a hip neighborhood and Sparkroot more than pulls its own weight. The downtown location means the clientele skews a little more towards the young-professionals-who-wearsuspenders-to-work crowd than the tattooed-grad-student type — though we

all know there are sick tats hidden under those shirtsleeves — but it’s still a decent place to get some homework done. The upstairs balcony is ideal for taking a drink and a laptop and writing about the lives of the people passing below. Even at night, when the wine and beer sales pick up, Sparkroot is rarely a loud place. That slow-brew iced coffee with chicory, called a NOLA, is my personal favorite, but its rotating iced teas and lemonade are also a great way to slake your thirst. In colder months, the mocha is impossibly good. It’s not particularly cozy. It’s all metal and glass, but if that’s your mason jar of tea, it’s not bad. And the cavernous, sparsely-furnished space is plenty big enough for five hipsters and their coffees. At the end of the day, that’s all that matters.

However, unlike its Ice Bucket, Salt and Ice, and Cinnamon Challenge counterparts, this challenge not only inflicts health risks on its participators but also raises the question: Is the #KylieJennerChallenge racist? Participants of this challenge insert their lips into a shot glass and suck for anywhere from two to five minutes, causing an air-lock effect. The result is supposedly a significantly larger and plumper pout that is “enhancing” to the look of one’s lips. But does it really enhance them? Dendy Engelman, a dermatological surgeon, told Seventeen magazine, not so much. “Not only can significant pain, swelling and bruising result from these suction techniques, but there is potential risk for scarring and permanent disfigurement with repeated attempts,” Engelman said. A dermatologist, Dr. Leslie Baumann, told CBS Miami that “[if] you put enough suction on the skin, it actually separates the epidermis from dermis into two different layers,” which ends up resembling a cold sore, or herpes, more than beautiful lips. This unintentional result of partaking in the challenge shows when browsing the #KylieJennerChallenge tag on Twitter or Instagram. Twitter users everywhere who took part in the challenge voiced their pain after participating, as well as their regret for attempting to alter their natural lips. Twitter user @SorryChersLate posted photos of their disastrous result on Twitter, debuting their new, extremely swollen and peeling lips. They inform other Twitter users to refrain from participating in the challenge, saying, “GUYS I DID THE LIP CHALLENGE THING, PLEASE DO NOT BE STUPID LIKE I WAS AND DO IT.” Amy Dixon, a nutritional sciences freshman, said she believes the challenge is not only harmful to people’s bodies, but also their selfesteem. “When someone tries to look like Kylie Jenner and sees that they’re failing to look like [her], they probably think, ‘Oh, I’m not good enough to be like Kylie Jenner,’” Dixon said. “It hurts their self-worth — it’s really stupid.” Tiffany Le, a pre-business freshman, said she thinks the expectation to look like a celebrity is unrealistic and detrimental to embracing one’s own unique beauty.

“Kylie Jenner is, like, 100 percent fake,” Le said. “You’re hurting yourself [doing the challenge] — ­­­ why would you want to do that? It’s not even you, and you’re hurting yourself. What do you have to gain from looking like Kylie Jenner? … It’s exploiting [participants’] self esteem.” By scrolling through the challenge’s hashtag on Twitter, one also spots photos and videos from Twitter’s black community speaking out against the challenge, but in a different way compared to that of the challenge participants. @BeeR0cka, a user of Black Twitter, posted selfies of her own full lips and captioned them, “Elle refers to full lips as ‘Kylie-esque,’ But, black women … You know what? Nvm.” User @NnesCorner captioned a photo her own lips, “Don’t forget, these are the features they tried to teach you to hate.” Their Tweets refer to how Jenner, a white woman, exploits full lips, a trait of black women that historically has been targeted by racists as a means to uphold their own Eurocentric beauty standards, according to USA Today’s Alexandra Samuels. “My problem is that history has mocked the natural features of black people, namely women, for a long time,” Samuels writes. “Dark hair, big butts and big lips were seen as ‘ugly’ and problematic — that is, until a white girl got them and they became trendy. It’s pretty despicable that the qualities I was born with used to be undesirable until Jenner and other white girls came around and made them popular.” Samuels thinks the main problem with the challenge is that through participating and even rebuffing the challenge, people ignore the realities that many black women have dealt with in their lives. “My biggest in concern is that Kylie is hailed for her big lips and for making them trendy whereas black people have been historically ridiculed for them,” Samuels writes. “For centuries, big lips were deemed an ugly feature on mammies and black women. Now that they’re fashionable, people seem to forget what black women went through.” The Kylie Jenner Challenge appears to be another awful social media trend that hurts not only its participants in both physical and psychological ways, but also black women who feel aspects of their appearance are being popularized by white women, despite their mockery from white racists throughout history.

Passion Pit album falls short amongst better new releases Alex Furrier Things change. It’s the natural order of the universe, and, according to the Laws of Thermodynamics, entropy is an unstoppable force. As such a natural part of life, it is the unconscious expectation of every endeavor: This time, it will be different; this time it will be better. Humans learn through repetition, by recognizing the most minuscule of changes and applying the good ones towards the future. This is why we often equate higher quality with change, especially in music. The toplevel performers are always reinventing themselves. Kanye West operates on another planet from mere mortals because of his chameleon-like ability to transition seamlessly from 808s & Heartbreak to My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy to Yeezus. Of course, there comes a day when even the great ones lose their fast twitch muscles and the ability to adapt on the fly. Every great band seems to level off and start putting out the same record over and

over again. All-timers like Bob Dylan and Tom Petty put out a “new” record every few years that is as predictable as the sunrise. The point at which an artist gives up on evolving is the inflection point at which their career starts heading downhill. Which brings me to my main point: with the release of the new album Kindred, I’m worried about Passion Pit, and you should be too. It would take an extraordinary amount of effort to have a bad time while listing to songs like “Sleepyhead” and “Little Secrets”, which is a large reason why Passion Pit found massive popularity in the first place. Infectious fun was its forte. Front man Michael Angelakos powered the band with his high-pitched vocals and catchy pop hooks. Passion Pit provided the poster child for sugar-coated electro pop, which is why its sophomore effort of Gossamer surprised so many. “Take a Walk”, the most popular track of Gossamer, exemplifies what makes the

orn the brainchild of fiction editor Drew Burk and poet Richard Siken in 2000, Spork Press represents a selective niche of the Tucson publication community. This for-profit literary press dabbles in many analog experiences, ranging from chapbooks to mixtapes. Finding its start at The Safehouse coffee shop, Spork Press initially entered the scene as a hardbound quarterly literary magazine. From 2000 to 2006, Burk, Siken and company maintained this format: publishing literary magazines and the occasional book. Following this format, Spork Press took a brief hiatus and re-entered the Tucson publication community as a new animal. “It wasn’t until Jake Levine – poetry editor in Korea, currently working on his Ph.D. – and I joined in 2009 that we changed the format to a book press that occasionally does a magazine,” said Andrew Shuta, designer, art director, producer and managing editor of Spork Press. “Since then, we’ve been exponentially growing.” Located on Third Avenue in the Iron Horse neighborhood near the butt of Fourth Avenue and downtown Tucson, Spork Press operates outside of what Joel Smith, fiction editor, dubs “the legendary carport studio.” This defiant little press operates, rain or shine, from a small guesthouse just off Burk’s driveway. Spork Press is an intimate company from

We print out the designed end sheets, then you sew them, glue them and bind the interior to the cover, and so on. There are a lot little steps that result in the final product.” Spork Press prides itself on its eccentricities, laying claim to the maxim: “WE DO WHAT WE WANT.” All of its works require meticulous attention to detail, as every book is handmade. Everyone within the company participates in some facet of the production, whether that be folding, sewing, trimming, letterpress printing the covers, constructing the spine, gluing books into covers or placing them in the press. “We’re all crazy in our own way,” Shuta said. “Drew should be famous already. Richard is famous already. Jake wins academic stuff all the time. Joel has a graphic novel coming out and is nice too. And I’m a

scatter-brained weirdo.” Producing books en masse, Spork Press currently published 23 titles in its fiction and poetry chapbook series. According to Smith, Spork Press strives to maintain a very broad aesthetic with every medium and author it works with. “We work with a lot of authors: some are already established in their field, others are emerging writers,” Shuta said. “We publish a monthly selection of writers online, which are attained by our online submissions or through solicitation. Most of our books have followed the same model.” Among its many literary titles, it also releases many musical projects in hardbound and cassette formats; including artists like Nat Baldwin, bassist for the Dirty Projectors, Young Family, an electro dreampop duo; and Isaiah Toothtaker, a Tucson rapper and tattoo artist. Spork Press hopes to expand into vinyl sometime in the foreseeable future. As the company publishes many new works of fiction, poetry and art, as well as cassettes and soon

vinyl, the Spork Press vision continues to grow. “We’re looking to expand our operation by getting a larger studio space, which would allow us to open our small press book record shop we’ve been dreaming about for years,” Shuta said. “Also, we hope to expand our production capabilities into screen printing, recording and workshops.” Spork Press prides itself on its anti-academic, antiinstitutional, no funding, do-it-yourself ethos. “It’s taken several years and many failures to streamline [the process] as we have,” Shuta said. “We promote the ideology that anyone and everyone can do what we do — it just takes a strong vision, strong work ethic and a strong group of people to execute the project. It’s taken 15 years, countless hours, buckets of personal money and so much sweat to [get] in the place we’re at today. It wasn’t easy, but we love what we do and so we do it.” Spork Press encourages all interested in publication work to pursue it earnestly, as it remains open to anyone interested in checking its production process out. “It’s not an impossible task, what we do,” Smith said. “We all started off not knowing how it all worked. It was only through actually doing it that we learned to run a press. Last year, we made over 1,600 handmade books. While there aren’t many places that actually do what we do, it is still doable.” — Follow Elise McClain @DailyWildcat

PASSION PIT FROM PAGE 11

album excellent and Kindred disappointing. In between the thumping choruses of “Take a Walk,” Angelakos sings the tale of a man who lost it all in the financial crash of 2008. The beauty of Gossamer and “Take a Walk” was found beyond the initial appearance. Hidden beneath the saccharine pop hooks and high-pitched choruses was the ominous story of a deeply hurting individual. The trials and tribulations surrounding Angelakos’ bipolar disorder fueled much of Gossamer. This substance is missing from much of Kindred. If you’re the kind of person that eats the same meal for breakfast, lunch and dinner every single day, then Kindred is for you. The album as a whole feels like B-sides from in-between Manners and Gossamer. I’m not sure any single song is better than the offerings on Gossamer. The latest ’80s craze continues to invade musical pop culture with the opening track “Lifted Up (1985).” From the opening song, the album meanders over 40 minutes of pleasant electropop without ever finding a distinct and compelling sound.

Songs such as “Five Foot Ten (I)” and “Looks Like Rain” are good, but the best of an album barely reaching “good” is never a good sign. The only dalliance Angelakos makes from his strict adherence to the norm is in the downtempo excursions on “Where the Sky Hangs” and “Looks Like Rain”. Hearing Passion Pit without the ADHD underpinnings is tranquil, and I wish there was more variation like it within the album. Angelakos split off from his band mates after Passion Pit’s last tour and worked on Kindred as a solo project. While the alblum is one long love letter to Angelakos’ wife, it is just another tally on the list of bands that split up over romance. The romance concept is a worthwhile endeavor (see the recent and excellent I Love You, Honeybear by Father John Misty), but creatively, Kindred comes up short. 2015 will be remembered as a year chock full of excellent music releases, but Kindred will not be counted among them.

New Tyler, The Creator tunes The Odd Future rapper’s latest album Cherry Bomb has ‘in-your-face beats’ that will leave listeners eager for more Caren Badtke

T

yler, The Creator, Odd Future mastermind, didn’t care much for marketing when he randomly released his fourth full-length album on April 13. The LP, entitled Cherry Bomb, is exactly what it promises: The first half of the album shows Tyler aggressively sorting out his mind and madness, while the second half seems more calm and enjoyable. While Schoolboy Q released his master strike I Don’t Like Shit, I Don’t Go Outside last month, Cherry Bomb adds only little to the golden year that’s happening to hip-hop in 2015. For that, Cherry Bomb is a bit ear-assaulting. It is cheap and slacks sound quality as Tyler’s vocals are far too quiet and sometimes indistinguishable. The beats are too mild and it appears unmastered at times. While completely self-produced, Tyler, The Creator doesn’t fail to surprise with interesting collaborators. The Californianative gets Lil Wayne and Kanye West on the same track and has Schoolboy Q and Pharrell Williams on board. The latter seems to have had a vast influence throughout the whole composition. “Deathcamp” opens the LP with N*E*R*D-style beats and Tyler explaining that he “named the album Cherry Bomb because ‘Greatest Hits’ sounded boring.” The track is the first indicator that the album is not going to be an easy one. After the aggressively confusing opener, “Buffalo” incorporates chaotic synths and distorted riffs into a slowish hip-hop rhythm, while Tyler continues in the same aggressive manner, this time outlining a major theme of the record: the motion of flying — “get those wings flappin’ motherfucker ‘cause this kid’s ready to fucking fly.” “Pilot” takes on the flight theme as well and marks itself with gripping synths and Cherry Bomb’s first catchy hook. “Run” is a somewhat intensive skit and has Tyler addressing the ruthless behavior of his peers, telling them to “run as fast as [they] can.” He seems to deliberately let go of the flight theme, because, as opposed to himself, his peers aren’t ready to spread their wings yet. “Find Your Wings,” however, delivers a fine jazz-house instrumental and the album’s very first relaxed moment. Don’t be fooled though, because “Cherry Bomb,” the title song, continues with in-your-face beats, and somehow, Tyler, The Creator manages to add so much synth and buzz that the peace and quiet of Cherry Bomb’s latter half is much needed. “Blow My Load” marks the album’s change in pace with tinny beats and a

ODD FUTURE RECORDS

slower, enjoyable pace. In “2Seater,” the longest song of the album, the rapper comes up with a string and a horn section, making the track the harmonic highlight in a collection of distortion that is Cherry Bomb. “The Brown Stains Latifah Part 6-12” delivers a set-back moment of dissonance though, because Tyler isn’t going to make

it easy for the listener. In the West and Wayne collab “Smuckers,” those involved are doing their usual. “Keep Da O’s” is another highlight that delivers the classic Tyler-counterpart to the hip-hop atypical “2Seater.” “Okaga, CA” closes Cherry Bomb in a relaxed manner that makes it kind of easy to forget the assaulting sound quality of the album’s first half. Cherry Bomb

is a challenging record, but Tyler, The Creator manages to remain transparent and likeable in the best ways, reminding us that we can’t wait for what’s about to happen next.

‘Daredevil’ more than just superheroes Elise McClain

N

etflix introduced a superhero persona, “Daredevil,” to its evergrowing collection of streaming original series on April 10. To comic fans, Daredevil is known as a crusader of his genre. Originally born of Marvel Comics in 1964, Daredevil possesses an array of superhuman abilities, but perhaps his most unique characteristic is his distinctly human disability: blindness. Matthew Murdock, known better by his superhero alias, “Daredevil,” played by Charlie Cox, quickly became a media sensation as the most prominent blind character in contemporary television. However, the roar surrounding the show itself was abruptly dwarfed when Netflix initially refused to provide audio and closed captioning to its visually impaired audience members. Before viewers could parse the quality of the episodes, commentary on the irony of this issue began to outshine the show itself. Though the Federal Communications Commission requires broadcasters to provide

audio descriptions of many of its programs for viewers, Netflix isn’t classified as a broadcaster. Because Netflix was not bound by law to provide audio description — as it is technically an Internet-based service — its initially had no intent of including audio captioning. Put bluntly, the superhero himself would not have access to enjoy his own show. Murdock is a character who is classified as far from ordinary. Though he possesses heightened senses, which attributes to his ability to perceive the world around him, the reality is he’s still blind. When watching the show, it’s easy to forget this truth — particularly in the many gritty hand-tohand fight scenes. Still, when Daredevil removes his mask, he’s again transformed into a blind lawyer negotiating life in Hell’s Kitchen, N.Y. He employs his many senses — touch among them — and the help of his trusty sidekick, Foggy Nelson (played by Elden Henson), to provide an image of the world he occupies. Public outcry and advocacy eventually forced Netflix’s hand. Last week, Netflix announced the added option of audio captioning to “Daredevil,” making it the first show in Netflix’s history to offer this service. Netflix also announced many

ABC STUDIOS

other titles to follow, including “House of Cards,” “Orange is the New Black” and “Marco Polo,” yet the battle rages on. “Daredevil” opened the door for many advocacy groups to push and make audio descriptions for online content legally binding. According to the American Foundation for the Blind, the Internet remains a “public space” and should be bound by the 25-year-old Americans With Disabilities Act. Though Netflix ultimately chose to comply with the desires of its viewers without legal action, it should be noted that “Daredevil” the comic was never produced in Braille or audio format. According to the Braille Institute, no comic book has ever been produced to be

accessible to the visually impaired. This makes Daredevil a hero ultimately not created for the blind, raising many interesting questions on the frontier of disability accessibility. Perhaps when it comes to portraying the blind, and services therein, the best anyone can hope for is expanding disability perceptions and efforts. Whether it’s intentional or not, “Daredevil” has come to represent something far greater than just a show. Working as a catalyst for bigger discussions, “Daredevil” is both entertaining and socially thought-provoking.

Softball faces sinking Stanford BY EZRA AMACHER The Daily Wildcat

Arizona softball returns home this weekend to face Stanford in a three-game series beginning Friday evening. The No. 19 Wildcats are coming off a disappointing road trip to Utah in which they lost two out of three games. They now sit at 9-6 in Pac-12 Conference play and likely need a sweep in order to stay in the hunt for a conference championship. A series with Stanford may be what Arizona needs to get back on track, as the Cardinal sits last in the Pac-12 with a 1-14 conference record. To make matters worse for the opposition, the San Jose Mercury News reported Tuesday that three Stanford seniors quit the team last weekend. One of the seniors, Hanna Winter, was second on the team with a .386 batting average. “I’m not close to that program and don’t really know what’s going on,” Arizona softball coach Mike Candrea said. “I’m just worried about this one right now and getting ourselves focused.” While the Wildcats have consistently been one of the best hitting teams in the nation, they struggled to put runs on the board against Utah. Arizona is also still trying to figure out its pitching situation. All three UA pitchers took the mound in each game of the Utah series. “The challenge of this game is to try to make sure you’re hitting on all cylinders,” Candrea said. “Playing good defense, getting good pitching and getting some timely hitting. When you don’t do that, anything can happen.” As long as the Wildcats receive their typical offensive production at the plate, they should be in decent shape against the Cardinal. Four Arizona players are batting .380 or higher, with Kellie Fox leading the way with a .404 mark. The UA has also capitalized off the long ball by averaging more than one home run per game, which ranks in the top 10 nationally. Katiyana Mauga

remains the team leader in homers with 20. Facing a Stanford pitching staff that ranks last in the Pac-12 with a 6.42 ERA, the Wildcats should put up no shortage of runs. On the mound, the Wildcats will likely once again turn to all three of their pitchers. Michelle Floyd leads the group with a 3.26

ERA, while Trish Parks is at 4.23. Siera Phillips is the third choice, as she has made just one career start heading into the weekend but has seen her workload go up in recent weeks. On paper, the Cardinal shouldn’t give Arizona much trouble, as it also ranks last in the conference in batting average at

.285. With the departures of the three seniors, Stanford’s lineup is even more depleted. However, Candrea expressed that the Cardinal, like any team, can cause trouble. “Stanford is a team that swings the bats,” Candrea said. “They’re used to playing from behind, so I’m expecting a very challenging

weekend. My emphasis right now is on what we’re doing.” Opening pitch on Friday is set for 6 p.m., and the series continues Saturday and Sunday.

UA baseball aims for recovery weekend BY NICOLE COUSINS The Daily Wildcat

After a rough pitching outing that resulted in a 6-5 loss to No. 12 ASU Wednesday night, Arizona baseball turns around to host No. 16 California this weekend. Arizona (24-14, 9-9 Pac-12 Conference) struggled on the mound against the Sun Devils, dropping an early 4-0 lead in a six-pitcher night. Arizona coach Andy Lopez said only three of those six — starter Nathan Bannister, first reliever Robby Medel and closer Tyger Talley — played up to standard. “It’s bad coaching,” Arizona baseball coach Andy Lopez said. “It hasn’t been clean and it’s my fault.” Lopez made a big defensive switch two weeks ago, changing utility player Bobby Dalbec to his Sunday starter and making Talley the closer. It’s proven effective for Arizona’s weekend starting rotation, but the UA’s offense has slowed down, and the Wildcats are just 2-5 in their last seven games. Talley tried to make up for a two-run deficit Wednesday, throwing a hitless 2.2 innings and striking out five, but it just wasn’t enough to propel Arizona. “We have to be better at holding [the other team] off and letting our offense get into a

rhythm,” Talley said. “I think those middle innings are our Kryptonite right now, and once we clean those up, we can start to put more wins in our win column.” Cal (23-14, 10-8), on the other hand, boasts some of the best pitching in the Pac-12. They’re young, too. Two of the Golden Bears’ starters are sophomore Daulton Jeffries and freshman

Matt Ladrech, who combine for a 2.01 ERA this season. Jeffries (4-2) has 42 strikeouts in 39 1/3 innings pitched and threw a shutout en route to an upset at then-No. 3 UCLA on April 16. Cal’s team ERA is 2.94, second in the conference, while Arizona lingers in ninth place at 4.07.

On the opposite side of the plate, Arizona has dropped in its overall batting performance, but still holds on to the top spot in the category in the Pac-12. Scott Kingery, who led the nation in batting before last week, went one-for-five at the plate Wednesday. He was 1-for-12 in last weekend’s series at Oregon State. “This [hitting slump] is just part of the game,” said designated hitter Tyler Krause, who went two-for-three and scored two of Arizona’s four runs against ASU, after Wednesday’s loss. “We just need to keep being aggressive at the plate.” Kevin Newman continues to be one of Arizona’s more aggressive batters. Newman went two-for-four Wednesday to record his 19th multi-hit game of the season. He also stole a base on the Sun Devils, making him 15-18 in steal attempts on the year. The Wildcats will start Cody Hamlin on the mound Friday night. Bannister, who had a limited pitch count in his start Wednesday, will make his third career start on Saturday, and Dalbec will round out the series on Sunday. First pitch at Hi Corbett Field is set at 6 p.m. on Friday and Saturday and noon on Sunday.

Women’s golf hopes for favorable draw BY JUSTIN SPEARS The Daily Wildcat

As the regular season has already ended and Arizona women’s golf proved its worth in the Pac-12 Championships, the next step for Arizona is still up in the air, as the Wildcats will realize their fate on Monday afternoon on the Golf Channel. The ideal scenario in the NCAA Regionals could be the reason Arizona wins a national championship this season and scratches off another task on head coach Laura Ianello’s coaching accomplishments. Every coach, no matter what the sport, has a checklist for his or her respected squad. For Ianello and the Wildcats this season, the team has completed a milestone checklist as the season has progressed, and the Wildcats are only getting hotter. One of those milestones was defending their title at the SunTrust Gator Women’s Golf Invitational and despite shooting 39-over-par, the Wildcats were in first place the entire tournament. From April 10-12, Arizona was the cream of the crop of the teams in the Pac-12 at the PING/ASU Invitational and knocked off Duke to defend as champions. The only milestone that Ianello didn’t complete this season was winning their home event when

ARIZONA WOMEN’S golf coach Laura Ianello talks during Arizona’s second place finish in the Wildcat Invitational at Sewailo Golf Club on March 17. Fresh off capturing the Pac-12 Championship, Ianello and the Wildcats have a great shot to contend for a national championship next week.

Arizona came in second. Big whoop. With the success that the Wildcats have accomplished this season, the rest of the Arizona Athletics community has revealed support to the Wildcats. Arizona men’s basketball coach Sean Miller and Arizona football coach Rich Rodriguez sent out tweets congratulating the women’s golf team. Overall, Ianello and her team have been rock stars through the week

and Ianello couldn’t have asked for a better scenario for her team. “When you think of Arizona, you always think of basketball and what Sean has done the past few years with the basketball team is incredible, and also Rich Rod did such a great job with the football team this season,” Ianello said. “So getting support from those guys was definitely a good feeling. All of Arizona Athletics is like a family and we’ll always show support for each other.”

Going back to Miller and Arizona basketball, the Wildcats were fortunate enough to play in the Pac12 tournament in Las Vegas and then in Los Angeles for the NCAA Tournament. MGM Grand Garden Arena and Staples Center turned into McKale Center during those games. As Arizona prepares for the NCAA Regionals, home-course advantage would be the ideal situation. The NCAA Regional hosts are N.C. State, Notre Dame, UTSA and BYU. Staying

close to home and playing in either Provo, Utah, or San Antonio is a recipe for success. The Wildcats played in Wilmington, N.C., for the fall portion of the season for the Landfall Tradition and tied for 10th place by shooting 881 (+17). Arizona played in Chicago for the 2014 Windy City Classic and came in fourth place (+27). Arizona hasn’t had the greatest success playing in the same region as N.C. State or Notre Dame, so playing in a neighbor state could result in playing in the NCAA Championships in Bradenton, Fla. Did I mention that Arizona played well in the state of Florida and earned titles in Gainesville in each of the last two years? Not to mention it came in second at the Annika Intercollegiate in Orlando, Fla. With the support of household names like Sean Miller and Rich Rodriguez, as well as the Tucson community to go along with playing close to home, Arizona is destined to finally give Ianello her first national championship as a coach. “The girls have worked so hard all season and all we can do is wait to see where we will play, but no matter where we have to travel to, we’ll have our week of preparation and get out there to compete,” Ianello said.

UA women’s tennis hits road BY STEVIE KATZ

The Daily Wildcat

The men and women’s tennis team traveled to Ojai, Calif., on Wednesday to compete in the Pac-12 Conference championship tournament. Everyone on the men’s team participated, but a certain few were selected from the women’s team. Sophomore Lauren Marker and senior Briar Preston are competing in the singles championship bracket and freshman Devin Chypyha and junior Inge Hendrikx are competing in the invitational section. Preston and junior Shayne Austin, Chypyha and senior Laura Oldham were all selected to compete in the doubles bracket. Marker, currently ranked No. 62 with a 16-5 record, has played in the No. 1 spot for the Wildcats all year and has taken down five of the 11 nationally ranked opponents she has played against. She is 5-5 in conference matches this year. Preston, ranked No. 98 with a 14-6 record, has played in the No. 2 spot for Arizona all year

and also has a 5-5 record in her conference matches. In the invitational bracket, Chypyha will go against ASU’s Alexandra Osborne. Chypyha has competed on courts four, five and six this season. Hendrikx, who has also played on courts five and six for Arizona, will play No. 92 Karla Popovic from California. On Thursday, Marker won her first round against Washington’s Capucine Gregoire, so she will advance on to the next round. Preston is set to play Washington’s Elianne Douglas-Miron. The duo of Preston and Austin will play USC Gabby Smith and Madison Westby on Friday at 10:15 a.m. The other Arizona duo, consisting of Oldham and Chypyha, will compete against ASU’s Osborne and Sahagun. The first two rounds of the tournaments will be played at the Ojai Valley Athletic Club and the second two rounds will be played at Libby Park. Pac-12 Networks will be broadcasting the singles championship live at 10 a.m. and will show the women’s doubles finals

Saturday at 7 p.m. The men’s team concluded its season after traveling to Ojai, Calif., to compete in the Pac-12 Championships. Unfortunately for the Widcats, the tournament was cut short, as they were defeated by Oregon, 4-1. The Wildcats fought hard until the last minute, but like many other matches this season, they could not come out with a victory. Arizona lost the doubles point. Junior Jason Jaruvang and junior Trevor James were defeated on court three. Junior Matt Dunn and partner sophomore Will Kneale were close to pulling off a victory but ended up falling 8-6. Junior Naoki Takeda and freshman partner Shoki Kasahara were close to grabbing the victory against the No. 77 team in the country, Daan Maasland and Simon Stevens, but the game was suspended due to Oregon taking the point. Jaruvang defeated Daniel Sardu and was the only Wildcat who grabbed a win in singles, winning in just two sets, 6-4 and 6-1. The Wildcats were down two strong players, senior Sumeet Shinde and freshman David

Mushayev, due to personal reasons. “It’s just the character with the guys,” Arizona coach Tad Berkowitz said. “They’ve been through a lot this season, with a bunch of key guys out of the lineup throughout the whole season. Just their ability to show up everyday with a great attitude and fight to compete — I think that shows a lot about them as a team.” — Follow Stevie Katz @stevie_katz
