‘Justified’ keeps
the stakes high
By ALEX INTNER
Daily Arts Writer
Final season of
FX hit promises
excitement
After a second season that will
be regarded as one of the best
seasons of television of all time,
“Justified”
dropped
in
quality.
The
following
installments
never
quite
created villains
or stories that
reached
the
same
level
of
depth
and
complexity
as
Mags
Bennett
(Margo
Martindale’s
Emmy-
winning role). However, those
seasons did a lot well, including
developing
the
relationship
between Raylan Givens and Boyd
Crowder and of the setting, Harlan,
KY. This season of the show is
starting to use that groundwork
to pay off its long-running arcs,
giving confidence that even if the
final go-around doesn’t reach the
same height of season two, it will
be a strong ending for the show.
“Justified”
continues
to
follow the story of U.S. Marshal
Raylan
(Timothy
Olyphant,
“Deadwood”). This season, the
Marshal is working to build a
case against longtime rival Boyd
(Walton Goggins, “The Shield”)
before he leaves to join his child
in Florida. He enlists the help
of Crowder’s fiancé Ava (Joelle
Carter, “American Pie 2”) as a
criminal informant. Meanwhile,
both of them deal with the arrival
of new villains with mysterious
plans for Harlan, played by Garret
Dillahunt (“Deadwood”) and Sam
Elliott (“Up in the Air”).
These early episodes focus on
how Raylan is only doing this
because of all of the investment he
has put into the case. This aspect
is the best of the season because
of all the legwork that the show
has put into constructing the
relationship between Raylan and
Boyd over the years. It helps that
every time Olyphant and Goggins
are on screen together, the scene
crackles. They’re playing off of six
years of tension, and it’s wonderful
to see them on screen together.
Incredibly, it’s still fascinating
to watch these actors work; each
of them has spent the past five
years forming layered, interesting
characters, a fact that shines
in
smaller
scenes
especially.
Olyphant owns the role of Raylan:
he wears his cowboy hat with
charisma and poise. Dillahunt
has the perfect mix of charm and
menace in playing a villain, and
Elliot, while he doesn’t get a major
scene until the third episode, he
makes it clear that his character is
a force to be reckoned with.
The actor to benefit the most
from this story is Carter. Last
year, Ava was sent to a prison,
an arc that didn’t completely
work, playing out for too long and
becoming repetitive. Having her
character be a criminal informant
gives Carter so much more to
play with, requiring her to give a
layered performance as Ava works
to put away Boyd, which leads to
some great results.
The amount of work that
“Justified” has put in to build its
characters and its world over the
past five seasons has largely been
under the radar during its run.
Now that they’re starting to pay
it off, it’s really good. The first few
episodes hint at a final season that
will be an amazing send-off for
the show, even if it doesn’t quite
match the heights of earlier
seasons.

New Sleater-Kinney
TV REVIEW
By MELINA GLUSAC
Daily Arts Writer
According to Google, a riot grrrl
(noun) is “a member of a movement
of young feminists associated with
aggressive
punk-style rock
music.”
Sleater-
Kinney,
a
three-piece,
all-female band
at the core of
this
move-
ment,
have
a
definition
that’s
much
more their own. Bandmates Corin
Tucker, Carrie Brownstein (“Port-
landia”) and Janet Weiss put the
riot in the music, which is all of the
following in no particular order
(because disorder is punk): stun-
ningly angry, surprisingly melodic,
boomingly soulful and downright
badass. These ladies have been
spilling jams of the aforemen-
tioned variety since 1994, riding
and dominating the coattails of
grunge and all its glory. And after
a hiatus of nearly 10 years, their
latest album is just as much of a
triumph as 2005’s critically-adored
The Woods. And their new album
No Cities to Love doesn’t skip a beat.
Few bands can match Sleater-
Kinney’s energy, which is hyper
and rife on their latest album.
“Price Tag” is the best way they
could have kicked off the care-
fully crafted 10-song tracklist. It’s
catchy and rhythmic, smoothly
catastrophic at parts, setting lofty
expectations for its nine sister
tunes who, actually, get better and
better as the album continues. The
brilliant “Fangless” soon follows,
complete with great back-up vocals
from Brownstein and a Strokes-
esque riff. It sounds like
riot grrrl for the 21st century — a
little more polished, more intricate,
but still so hard.
Each song wouldn’t be (and
couldn’t be) complete, though,
without lead singer Tucker’s deli-
ciously raw vocals. Her yawp
devours every chord with the
juxtaposed essence of grace and
anger management; such soul can’t
be taught. On “No Anthems” the
listener gets her more subtle side
in the verses, sexy whispers over
Weiss’s roaring drums, but she
comes around with that yell again
and sets the whole track on fire. It’s
great. Flavors of punk’s past guide
her on “Bury Our Friends,” her
slurred Clash-like pronunciation
enhancing Sleater-Kinney’s street
cred. And “Hey Darling,” probably
the most conventional track on the
album, blossoms into something
truly melodic by the time Tucker
hits the chorus. Here, if even for
a few minutes, she shows us she
can really sing by society’s work-
ing definition of “singing,” should
she choose to abide by it. But that
wouldn’t be very riot grrrl of her,
now, would it?
As rooted as it is in punk, No Cit-
ies to Love is not lacking in inven-
tiveness. “Gimme Love,” arguably
the best song on the album, show-
cases staccato guitars and vocals
to match — its terseness is jarring
in the niftiest way possible, pro-
gressing and following Tucker’s
hajj to the pinnacle of lyrical angst.
“A New Wave” and “Surface Envy”
have classic-rock vibes and are
refreshingly upbeat. Marked by
songs like these, the album seems
more alive than The Woods, more
rocking and truer to Sleater-Kin-
ney’s origins — it’s less of them
trying to fit to the times or mellow
themselves out in accordance with
their age. Even the titular track
creates rad harmonies and prod-
ding drive. Take it from the pros:
riot grrrls don’t get old.
The album only slows down
with its concluding song, “Fade”—
a wicked, eerie, swampy num-
ber that’s Tucker’s last catharsis.
Heavy guitars and a creepy groove
make it really cool to listen to, an
appropriate yet imaginative way
to end an impressive comeback
record.
These three gals still sounds like
a really good girl group jamming
out in their basement in Olym-
pia, Washington in 1994, but with
about 10 times more chutzpah,
musicality and refined punk vigor.
Is that the secret to success, or,
moreover, (riot) girl power? Who
knows. But it works like hell for
Sleater-Kinney.

‘Eye Candy’
is MTV trash
By SOPHIA KAUFMAN
Daily Arts Writer
MTV’s
latest
show
“Eye
Candy” stars Victoria Justice, a
name familiar to anyone who’s
watched Nick-
elodeon’s “Vic-
torious,” (or if
they’re a half
a decade older,
“Zoey
101”).
After being a
teenage
star
for the past 10
years,
Justice
seems
to
be
trying
some-
thing new, something different,
something edgier. In the begin-
ning of the premiere, it is doubt-
ful whether the almost 21-year
old can pull it off; but by the end
of the episode, after watching
her discover two dead bodies
and hack into databases illegally,
viewers can have a little more
faith in her — if not in the show.
Justice plays Lindy Sampson,
a young woman who possesses
exceptional
technical
skills,
which she uses to hack into the
NYPD’s databases to find miss-
ing persons. While this appears a
mere obsession to her coworkers
and best friend Sophia (Kiersey
Clemons, “Transparent”), this
peculiarity stems from Samp-
son’s desire to find her kidnapped
younger sister who was ripped
from her life three years earlier.
These illegal hacks get her in
frequent trouble with the police,
mediated only slightly by her
complicated on-again, off-again
relationship with Ben, an officer.
When Sophia makes Lindy an
account on Flirtual, a dating app
that seems to function like Tin-
der, Lindy (under the name “Eye
Candy”) draws the attention of
a serial killer whom we never
see. The resulting events — hid-
den cameras in her apartment,
creepy text messages reminiscent
of those on “Pretty Little Liars,”
the gruesome murders of Ben
and another man — strengthen
Lindy’s resolve to find the psy-
chopath before he finds her.
Justice still has a long way to go
before her acting in “Eye Candy”
can be considered above average,
or even better than her past ven-
tures. Though she’s predictable
and lacks in nuance at times, her
performance is overall solid.
Many of the plot devices are
worn and transparent, and the
lines
feel
overly
illustrative,
leaving viewers annoyed at hav-
ing explanations and superficial
backstories thrust upon them.
What makes this show relatively
interesting, despite its evident
flaws, is how it plays on real
fears of society’s vulnerability
to predators on the Internet — it
sometimes feels like it is, as the
serial killer says in a voice over,
“God’s gift to psychopaths.” But
the writers are going to have to
focus more on depicting a scary
but believable reality and less on
unwarranted deaths, gruesome
shots of bodies and unnecessar-
ily contrived quips if they want to
hold onto their viewers.
