CANNIBAL CORPSE

LORD OF THE RINGS: RETURN OF THE KING Friday, 8.30pm • GO

The conclusion to Peter Jackson's walking epic might be on one of the grandest scales imaginable and contains some of the most jaw dropping special effects in recent memory but also one of the big­gest plot holes - I mean, Gandalfhad a giant bird ... couldn't he have just flown over Mount Doom and dropped the ring in, saving little Frodo Baggins and co all of that needless walking?

Thursday, September 11 • Manning Bar - University of Sydney Union

Here's one for fans of sonic brutality everywhere . On the eve of their new album, A Skeletal Domain, the towering gods of death metal, Cannibal

Corpse are smashing their way back to Australia for what will be a grisly, hostile start to their world tour in support of this album.

With all their trademark blistering riffs, turbulent drums, ruthless and razored vocals, the bludgeoning force of Cannibal Corspe will strike like an ice pick to the back of your head.

Ensuring the brutality doesn't stop with the headliners, opening proceedings will be Italy's purveyors of maniacal death metal, Hour of Penance so, if you like to walk on the dark side of the street when it comes to music - get on this now.

RIDE ALONG Out Now RATEDMA

While it does seem strange that the grand­daddy of gansta rap - a man who with his posse NWA put the infamous phrase "f**k tha police" to tape should star in a buddy cop movie - it's a pleasant enough distrac­tion nonetheless.

When a fast-talking guy (Kevin Hart) joins his girl­friend's brother (Cube)-a hot-tempered cop-to pa­trol the streets of Atlanta, he gets entangled in the officer's latest case. Now, in order to prove that he deserves his future bride, he must survive the most insane 24 hours of his life. While it is derivative and there are much better films in this geme, if you're looking for a bit of a weekend distraction, you could do a lot worse than this.

WEIRD AL YANKOVIC MANDATORY FUN Out Now

When it comes to the world of the parody song, there are few who do it better than Weird AI Yankovic and this, his fourteenth studio album, could just be the poodle-haired jokester's finest yet.

While there are many who would decry Yankovic as an unfortunate, annoying side effect of popular music, there are few who would be able to hold back a chuckle at his brilliant parody of Robin Thicke's misogyny anthem Blurred Lines reimag­ined as a not -so-subtle dig at people who use incorrect grammar on social media.

Other standouts include Foil ( think Lorde's Royals) and Handy (think Iggy Azalea's Fancy) and, of course the obliga­tory Yankovic pop-culture lampooning polka medely, Now That's What I Call Polka.

Get your guffaw on.

TRAIlER

THEATRE

utherford might seem a long way from the brigb1 Iigltts of the Big Apple but DDt fur stage actor and singer David Ranis.

After treading the boards in some of Australia's trlggest musicals - Miss Sai,gon. Widced and Legally Blonde fur example - Harris is set to pack up stumps and move to New Ymk city to try his luck on Broadway. He'll be arriving in style as weD. with a gig already booked. at the prestigious New York cabaret venue 54 Below Qocated undemeath the legendary Studio 54) with. New York oomposer Scott Evan Davis.

Speaking to 7E during a break in rehearsals fur his Iatest role as The Baker in the VktmianOpera~ production of Into the Woods, Harris said while the prospect of moving halfway around. the world was a tad scary. it represented the fulfilment of along-held dream..

"It is a little daunting - I mean, relocat­ing to another country is something that is never easy but it's something that Pve always wanted to do and I'm extremely excited about it." Harris said. "I performed with Scott Evan Davis

at the Adelaide Cabaret Festival and he invited me to sing with. him. at 54 Below in September, which is a pretty good way to

arrive in New York. but after that it will be a case of just seeing what happens.'"

Before he jets off however, Harris wiD be bringing his intimate, autobiographi­cal cabaret show - Time i!; a Troveller - to Newcastle and he said he couldn't leave the country before performing ooce more :in his old stomping ground.

"It's really great for me on a personal. note because it's where I grew up so it's extra nice to be able to bring my own story backtomyhametown.

"H is a litt1e bit of a last lrurrah, but that doesn"t mean that I won"I: be back at every opportunity."

Time is a Traveller, whkh played to five sold out crowds in Sydney earlier this year. sees Harris at his most candid and persooal. The show weaves together songs and -.. that have shaped Ills """"" • from the embanassment of Ills first school musical, In talent quests at RSL clubs and the blghs and lows ofbeing """ of Australla's best-lDved I:beatIkBlleadiDg meo.

When Harris was cutting his teeth on the playground of RutheIfmd Teclmology High, he had no idea that he would, one day, be treading the boards in some of the most instantly recognisable stage shows in recemmemory.

"I didn't come from a musical family. "My mum worked for my unc1.e's aircon­

ditioning company and my father was a truck driver. Singing wasn't something that was considered cool growing up,

Relocating to another country is something that is never easy but it's something that rvealways wanted to do

either. it was just sometbiDg that I kind of fellinto."

"'I enrolled in architecture at universtty and left after a very short time because it just wasn't for me. I anditioned for the very first production of Miss SajgDn and I remember thinking, wouldn't ft be great to do this. but never thought it would come to fruition.

"'I didn't get into NIDA or any perfor­mance cowses. but in the same :year I left. urn. I made the '-list fur The Boy From Oz wfth Todd McKinney and someone pulled out and I was in and that was that - I thank that person """'Y day."

Since landing that plum role in the Boy ftum Oz, Ranis has been ootOinated fur fourHelpmannawanlsforbisportIayalsof Ollis in Miss Sai,grm. Fiyero in Wicked and Emmett in Legally Blonde but is equally comfortable in cabaret. concert and album mode. He said that the ability to work across a number of different mediwns helped lreep the creative jukes fklwing.

"They defiDilely all hold their own charms .... he said. "I rea1ly love musicals - just the grand

sca1e of tt all and bemg able to reelly delve into a character but cabaret is also great because you can lose that fourth wall and have a chat with the crowd and have a bit of a yam and the concert arena is a completely different kettle of fish altogether. But. to be able to cross over rea1ly keeps t:bingo fresh and the creativity flowing."

From a quiet Sunday session at a local pub to a sophisticated private event, multi-instrumentalist Jason Bone's passion for music is unmis­takable.

A prominent figure in the local and national music scene over the last seventeen years, Bone has per­formed with many original artists, bands and orchestras.

He trained at a young age as a saxophonist and with time has transferred his enthusiasm for music to other instruments such as guitar, drums, keyboard, and voice.

Jason has featured in numerous recordings on various instruments, and has toured both nationally and internationally. In 2005, Jason's band "Fumi Boca" were recipients of the Jazz Category award in the 1233 ABC Music Awards, after being nominated three years running.

Jason's diverse musical influence is seen through the wide range of styles he interprets as a solo artist. He has an extensive repertoire that consists of music ranging from jazz though to blues and rock.

When it comes to a Jason Bone show, there isn't much musical ter­ritory he won't cover, so get along to see what all the fuss is about.

Lush three-part vocal harmonies are just one of the features of Sil­verhair's sets, with professionalism, drive and entertainment the focal point of every performance. If the likes of AC/DC, Bad Com­

pany, Hoodoo Gurus, Midnight Oil, Deep Purple, Bryan Adams, Fleetwood Mac, Kings of Leon, Bruce Springsteen, Chuck Berry, the Little River Band and the Foo Fighters float your boat, then you'd do well to get along to a Silverhair gig as these guys are guaranteed to please.

Featuring the talents of Bruce Campbell on bass and vocals, Claude Hatton on guitar and vocals and Ian McKinney on guitar and vocals, Silverhair's formidable vocal harmonies have to be heard to be believed.

NEW AGE

The sixth sense After discovering a gift to reveal the

future and communicate with the spirit world as a child, Newcastle's

Mitchell Coombes has parlayed his talents into quite a successful career. With regular appearances on Channel Seven's Sunrise and The Morning Show, a weekly column in That's Life magazine and two best­selling books in Sensing Spirit and Sensing Psychic, Coombes, the 2011 Australian psychic of the year, has become one of Australia's best -mown seers.

Coombes will be bringing his show, An Evening With Mitchell Coombes to Wests this month and he said the prospect of doing his thing in front of the home crowd was an exciting one, particularly after his sold-out Newcastle turn last year.

"I can't wait;' he said of the show. "I've always had a lot of support in

Newcastle - I have a lot of Newcastle clients and my office is in Charlestown and given that I do a fair bit of touring both here and overseas, it's always great to come back and share my experiences with local audiences.

"I also just love the energy in Newcastle -there seems to be a real open mindedness to the people that is just great?'

Coombes said the show would be similar in format to that of US medium John Edward and he will be passing on messages from audience members' departed loved ones.

"I would say that I'm almost like a

switchboard operator to the other side;' he said.

"I'll be getting messages from people's departed siblings, children, parents, friends. It's a very gratifying and humbling experience to be able to reach out to people in such a way?'

Coombes, who said that psychic ability has been a long standing trait in his family, first started seeing spirits at the age of three.

"It definitely runs in my family - I'd say psychic ability goes back around 400 years in our family. My nana taught me how to read tea leaves when I was six, but from the age of three I started seeing what I thought were little green people at the foot of my bed, which turned out to be spirits. At the time I thought that everybody could do this?'

Coombes said he has since developed a modicum of control over his gift.

"When it started it was pretty hard to control it but now I'm definitely better at it. I'd say it's kind of like me being a taxi driver who puts up a sign saying I'm ready to take a fare?'

Coombes added that he believed every­one had psychic ability it was just about recognising the signs.

"Everyone is psychic - you always hear people saying things like 'I just mow' about someone or something or they have a gut feeling - that's psychic intuition;' he said.
