Despite its valuable medicinal impacts for easing nausea and pain, cannabis is a hallucinogenic/psychedelic drug that will be looked downward on due to false claims about it.

In a thought-provoking literary composition by Stephen Jay Gould, the hypotheses of dinosaur extinction are intermingled with the all-consuming thoughts and dilemmas that plague much of the modern society, including: sex, drugs, and violence; as well as one great unknown- how dinosaurs became extinct.

Brittany’s friends state she drank a lot of water to prevent a hangover. This is the main reason for her…

My footsteps punctured the eerie atmosphere and sent a quiet whisper billowing through the drafty house. We silently snuck through the unrelenting passages of the prison, trying not to wake the guards. Our escape into the wilderness had been planned for weeks, like all good plans. A desperate grasp at freedom; a hope that we would be able to taste the breeze on our tongues that assured us hints of power and privilege. The frayed, thinned straps carved into my frail shoulders. A backpack that…

much reflected Bob’s, and had an almost identical style. He even went as far as to record one of Dylan’s songs. On Jimi’s Electric Ladyland album, Dylan’s song “All Along The Watchtower” is performed by Jimi. The song is embellished with Hendrix’s psychedelic guitar playing and effects and became his number one selling single. “I liked Jimi Hendrix’s record of this and ever since he died I’ve been doing it that way… Strange how when I sing it, I always feel it’s a tribute to him in some kind of…

In "Only Lovers Left Alive," Jarmusch finds a way to shake off the recently accumulated residue of too many sparkly, lovesick bloodsuckers by recontextualizing the supernatural creatures as the ultimate hipsters. More than…

With thunder crackling and rain pouring down, the first tick in the box of horror cliches is marked within seconds of playing Layers of Fear. That's not to say this psychedelic horror-adventure doesn't offer anything original. Starting out in a seemingly empty 19th-century mansion certainly sets an uncomfortable tone, and aided by the rambling narrative of an artist who has completely lost his mind - Layers of Fear is consistently unsettling. While you could be forgiven for thinking the…

instruments. Chandler’s departure from the group was perhaps one of the best things to happen for Hendrix. Electric Ladyland became one of the best rock albums of the era featuring some of Hendrix’s best works and “found him taking his funk and psychedelic sounds to the absolute limit” as Cub Koda explains. He released the album, as producer and director, in October of 1968 and by mid-November the same year, it reached the number 1 spot in the U.S., where it stayed for 2 weeks. His…
