Lockjaw (EP)
Lockjaw is an extended play (EP) by Australian musicians Flume and Chet Faker.
Background
Flume and Faker had previously worked together on the track "Left Alone" from Flume's 2012 album, Flume.
In September 2013, Flume announced that he and Faker had recorded an EP, stating that the final result "doesn't sound particularly like Flume or specifically like, you know, a Chet Faker record it really is kinda like a hybrid of both sounds going to one" and he feels like everything they did with the EP "was collaborative about the whole effort, and I think that shines through."
Reviews
Josh Dixon from Renowned for Sound gave the EP 4.5/5 stars, saying; "Each track though is clearly purposeful in its intent as a song and the EP stands strong and even goes as far as exceeding some of the overdrawn full-length albums seen today in the genre of electronic music. The EP will undoubtedly leave you wanting more."
Robin Fulton from On Record Magazine gave the EP 4/5 stars, writing; "The three track EP is an interesting cocktail of genre ambiguity with up and down tempo beats placed over harmonic, deep and emotion-fueled instrumentals carried along by Chet Faker’s responsive and perfectly layered vocals."
ClayFighter 63⅓
ClayFighter 63⅓ is a fighting video game developed and published by Interplay Entertainment for the Nintendo 64 (N64) video game console in 1997. Its title is a parody of other games released for the N64 at the time, many of which were popular franchises with "64" suffixed (such as Super Mario 64). A later version of the game, ClayFighter: Sculptor's Cut, released for rental only, is one of the rarest and most expensive N64 games. It, along with Rakugakids was one of the only 2D fighting games for the N64.
Gameplay
Like its predecessors ClayFighter and C2 Judgement Clay, Clayfighter 63⅓ uses stop motion animation and claymation as opposed to traditional computer animation to produce a unique effect. It is also a homage to The Naked Gun movie series titles, particularly Naked Gun 33⅓: The Final Insult.
The arenas in ClayFighter 63⅓ are unique in that each one, with several exceptions, houses multiple rooms; during fights players can punch or kick their opponents into different rooms and the fight will then continue in that room. There are 26 different rooms to fight in. Originally planned for release on 3DO's M2 console as ClayFighter III, the game initially had a much darker tone.

Warning (Green Day album)
Warning (stylized as Warning:) is the sixth studio album by the American punk rock band Green Day, released on October 3, 2000, by Reprise Records. Building upon its predecessor, Nimrod (1997), the album eschewed the band's trademark punk rock sound and incorporated acoustic elements and pop and folk styles. Lyrically, the record contains more optimistic and inspirational themes in comparison with the band's earlier releases. Warning was also Green Day's first album since Kerplunk (1992) that was not produced by Rob Cavallo, although he did have a hand in its production and was credited as executive producer.
Despite mixed criticism towards the band's stylistic change, the album received mostly positive reviews from music critics, who praised vocalist/guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong's songwriting. Although it peaked at number four on the US Billboard 200 chart, Warning represented the lowest commercial slump in Green Day's career, being the band's first album since signing to a major record label not to achieve multi-platinum status. The album has nonetheless been certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America and, as of December 2012, has sold 1.2 million copies. Warning was reissued on vinyl on July 14, 2009.
