Kyle Martin | Staff Writer There’s nothing like the energy and intensity that comes from a Snarky Puppy concert. At their first stop of a projected ten-week tour at the overloaded Prophet Bar in Deep Ellum, the band left fans bouncing off the walls in complete musical satisfaction. Before the show, a line of people wrapped around the block and touched the opposite side of the venue, The Door, while
Nicholas Friedman | Editor-In-Chief @NMFreed If the Square is Denton’s heart, and music is its soul, what can a gourmet restaurant with a home-brew stage and a whole ‘lotta wood represent?

Straight Outta Compton, one of the summer’s most high-profile and reflective films, is as much a call to action as it is a reflection upon the creation of a genre.

Typically, I’m not one to get too excited over new sports games. After all, some of them are just new discs with roster updates. *cough* MLB 2K. Albeit, they don’t make that series anymore. Not Madden 16. EA Sports promised cutting edge graphics, realistic football

Megan McKenna | Contributing Writer @Megann_Macc Atlas Genius first caught the attention of American listeners with “Trojans,” the single off of their first full-length album, When It Was Now, released in 2013. Since then, there has been much anticipation about the band’s newly released Inanimate Objects and it’s safe to say fans will not be let down. Australian brothers, Keith and Michael Jeffrey, sewed together 11 songs, each having something
