Xbox Music
Knife Party – Abandon Ship
The Australian electronic music duo Knife Party have released their first studio album Abandon Ship. Track number two is a good single to get a taste for their music and see whether or not you like the album. Sam likes. [Electronic/Dance]

Ariel Pink – pom pom
And now for a complete 180 from Knife Party. Pom pom is the debut solo album from Ariel Pink. I didn't think I'd like the album after listening to the first track, but give you should give it a chance. Check out the single Put Your Number in my Phone to see what you think. [Indie rock]

Fugazi – First Demo
First Demo is a demo album from Fugazi that was released this past week. Believe it or not, this is a bit of blast from the past since it was technically recorded in 1988. Think of this as a little history lesson for the weekend. [Post-hardcore]

Xbox Video
22 Jump Street
Probably one of the best comedies in 2014 (in my book at least). 22 Jump Street is the sequel to the 2012 movie staring Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum. [PG, 1 hr 52 min]

Sin City: A Dame to Kill For
Did you skip on the Sin City sequel in theaters because of abysmal reviews? Good, I did the same thing and instead waited to rent the film. It's out this week, so if you want to visit the Sin City universe this weekend you can. Though you might be better off with the original. [R, 1 hr 42 min]

Jersey Boys
Love video games? Then you're going to want to catch the Atari: Game Over documentary on Xbox Video. It's an exclusive documentary for Xbox video that chronicles the fall of the Atari Corporation. [PG-13, 1 hr 6 min]
