News, Reviews and Retrospectives
Brand X Reviews started in October 2013 as a YouTube channel and related website brandxreviews.com, intended to cover pop-culture subjects, such as movies, record collecting, entertainment news and more.
This continues today, however in subsequent years, discussions have expanded into the Culture War as it pertains to entertainment.
So brandxreviews.com now redirects over to thegramophonemind.com, as we do cover similar subject matter. For example we have recommended reading and music sections in the menu of this website, as well as a list of recommended movies and documentaries in our media section.
Click here to see the original Brand X Reviews YouTube channel.
