REVIEW: Sharknado
July 11th, 2013 Tyler Osborne Film: Sharknado Directed by: Anthony C. Ferrante Studio: SyFy Channel Sharknado.

REVIEW: The Front Bottoms – Talon of the Hawk
May 13th, 2013 Tyler Osborne Band: The Front Bottoms Album: Talon of the Hawk Genre: Punk/Acoustic Label: Bar/None Records I initially wrote The Front Bottoms off because I thought they were something hipster kids listened to while smoking out in their parents’ suburban basement.
