Pretty good, it's basically a funky music video compilation with a cool samurai lady and CGI that really ain't that bad.
6.5/10 def worth a watch especially with how short it is.
There isn't much to discuss honestly I would rather have these over some other things that were produced and were a total waste of money and time imo.
Give Sturgill a try he's got good music apparently.
Art:
Decent CGI, good aesthetic for the live shots some of videos were very detailed.
Story:
There aint much there's a story that stretches between a few songs and a few more clips, the shelter one was nice.

Probably the best music movie there is. Not many have tried this method of narrative so it's hard to compare, but it just works.
Don't expect in-depth characters or story line, this movie is made for vibing. It does have a story and characters, but without any dialogue it is up to the viewer to make interpretations and that is the most wonderful part. Reflect on this movie and self-analyze your thoughts.
Additionally, music is great. Of course that's subjective, but it's half of the experience and if you don't like Sturgill Simpson's unique blend of rock, country and techno, I'd suggest not watching it.
TL;DR it's not your average movie nor really an anime and I recommend seeing this different form of narrative to break away from your cliche cookie cutter anime patterns (seriously, don't…

Hi everyone, Notthony Melontano, the internet’s worst weeaboo bitch, and it’s time for a review of the Sturgill Simpson, fully animated visual album, Sound & Fury. This is the collaborative project from numerous directors and studios, but the biggest name to be found with regards to the project as a whole not only directs several segments, but also co-wrote the screenplay for the film with Sturgill Simpson himself, Junpei Mizusaki, who’s previous work on Batman Ninja led to a thoroughly enjoyable, albeit nonsensical experience.
The biggest stand-out feature for Junpei’s directorial style during that film was his unique art style, opting to give harsher outlines to each character’s design in order to emphasize the fact that it’s being animated even as a fully CGI character model, as oppose…

Presumptively, the namesake of this anime is the line from Macbeth, in which he suggests that life is "a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing." Which makes for a fairly apt description of this OVA, or rather, OVA with the incidental bit of live action, although it's really just a compilation of a total of 9 music videos, and while most music videos like to include a bit of ambient noise or dialogue, usually to try and stop people from ripping them off Youtube, there is none at all here, so the only thing they have to work with are the visuals. Which were at least good, apart from one of them which had some rather poor CGI, it was all of a high quality, the production value's all there, but only sometimes did it feel like they were really putting their all into…

Lets get to the best part about this film first and foremost. The 3D Animation and art style is gritty and awe inspiring in some parts. However and can lose focus at some points turning more into a psychedelic trip and losing the tone it recently had set. For 3D animation in Anime usually has a connotation of being a bad thing that doesn't mix but in recent time has gotten better and this film displays some positive light on why some 3D animation could be good. But its still not flawless. Next is the music which is hands down the best part about this film and the only reason you would watch it all the way through. But having this be the highlight of your film is odd to say the least. Because if right off the bat, if you don't like the music then there really isn't anymore of a reason to tr…

I believe this is the first time I've heard of an anime visual album. I went into this Netflix original relatively blind, and it turned out to be pretty decent for what it is. If you've seen Ninja Batman, then Sound & Fury here will look and feel nearly identical since the two share work from the same studio and some main staff members.
First things first, I thought the music was pretty great. It's mostly blues and synth-rock throughout. If you're into those or similar rock subgenres, then you'll likely find more enjoyment in this. There's not much to say storywise. "A mysterious driver heads deep into a post-apocalyptic hellscape toward a ferocious showdown with two monstrous opponents." That single sentence from the synopsis about sums everything up. These are extremely straightforward…

Sound & Fury (2019)
The video itself being a music video with some crazy animation.
It seems to be about some gas smoking guy and a rich guy with a gun who murder a Samurai Blacksmith family which happens during the end of the world.
This dystopian world is so random.
The music during it is a Rock style. It is AWESOME music and a pleasure to listen too.
The animation is mostly CGI but is amazingly well done. It has times especially around 8-14 minutes in which it just goes super crazy. Be aware after the credits there is still a good few minutes of animation left closing the story up.
This is well worth a watch if you enjoy rock music. Also if you want to see various different types of animation/CGI styles shown to you over the video. The story is all over the place but I don't th…

There was literally no review to this so i decided to do one by myself. It's the very first one that i'm writing here so i'll assume it's gonna be poor. Anyway, let's start:
Story: As it's the music video, the story doesn't play such a big role here. Let's just say it's about samurai looking for revenge (pretty cliche) and about useless violence in the world. That's it. Nothing special, but still it's a music video so it doesn't matter that much. 5/10
Art: Even tho almost every single episode is made of different art, there is CGI almost in every one of them leaving us with like 2 episodes with pure 2d animation. What can I say? It's made by Netflix, c'mon. 4/10
Sound: It's not the type of music that i like, but i'd have to say it's not bad either. Google says it's blues rock, psychedel…
