I must admit that up until somebody aimed me toward this album i had never heard of the band Black Pistol Fire, but now after spending some time with album i am happy to have found it. The closest band i can compare them to would be the White …

Garth Brooks does a song called Honky Tonk Bar Association. This song makes fun of our government. It talks about going and joining the Honky Tonk Bar Association which stands for going to a bar and getting drunk to solve your everyday problems. The bar does not require …

Falling Down is a track by Muse which appears on their first record, Showbiz. I recently reviewed a few tracks from this album today such as Sober and Unintended, compared with these two, Falling Down is far more similar to Unintended in the sense that it’s an extremely melodic …

One of the songs by Hard Rock Band Tesla off their first Album Mechanical Resonance, is a cover of Little Suzi’s on the up by Pop band Phd. The Tesla version is alot better in my opinion then the original song. The original is really boring and is way …

Break On Through (To The Other Side) is the first track which opens The Doors debut and self-titled record. I have to say that this track portrays The Doors at really not a bad representation and certainly a pretty good representation of at least the overall mood and vibe …

Overview —“ Nice Guys Finish Last, another music video released for Nimrod by Green Day creates a fantasy situation with a mix if a football and a concert theme. Like Basket Case and Walking Contradiction, Nice Guys Finish Last is approached with a comical and humorous attempt in mind, …

Ibanez has yet again created another guitar made for the guitarist in you! It is an RG770DX 1987 reissue that comes in either Ruby red or Lazer blue. The Neck is a Wizard neck that is thin for just gliding through easily with double octave or 24 frets. The …

Hangar 18 is a song by Megadeth which appears on their record Rust In Peace. I’ll mention right now that if you aren’t really a person who enjoys guitar solos very much, this probably isn’t a track that you’ll enjoy all that much, or at least as much as …

The Hieroglyphics crew is one of the tightest and most original Hip Hop crews on the planet. Their Rap flow is littered with witty one-liners, metaphors and and expanded vocabulary that goes beyond the street talk and cliche’ lyrics of typical Rap music. Consisiting of members A-Plus, Opio, Del …

At my local MAE music store, I recently bought a new toy to add to my rig for my band. Since my band have been saying that my solos are often unaudible in the mix of our sound, I bought a Boost Line Driver by MXR. It was …

The song Sailing On is from the play Saturday’s Warrior. All of the songs lyrics are by Doug Stewart and the music is by Lex De Azevedo, who also produced the play. The version I adore the most is sung by Cam Clarke, who some might know …

The song It Stops Today has become my signature song and it is sung by one of my favorite singers, Colbie Caillat. I first heard this song after a break up and it spoke volumes as to where I was in my life. I had always depended on others …

It’s odd that you would look at the performance of potentially the biggest boy band in the world and notice how much they had grown in a matter of weeks, but this is what I noticed with Take That. Only weeks before they had performed together with Robbie Williams …

The Happiest Days Of Our Lives is a song by Pink Floyd which appears on their concept record The Wall. The key thing about this track is that it acts as the transition between Another Brick In The Wall Part 1 and Another Brick In The Wall Part 2. …

Tikiwid is a song by Animal Collective and the second track on their 2006 EP entitled People. In contrast to the previous title track on the EP, Tikiwid returns the band to a more traditional sound which actually has a solid structure and a proper vocal performance. After listening …

So, would you believe it. Robbie Williams and Gary Barlow not only friends again but dueting.
Shame is actually quite a cheesy track and if it had been wrote or performed by anyone else I think it would have been panned but this is a duet between two men whose …

While everybody is aware of the title track from the album EYE OF THE TIGER, it truly surprises me how many people i speak to that had no idea that it was actually the title of the band’s 1982 long player. This strikes me as odd because the album …

Rattlehead is a song by Megadeth which appears on their debut record, Killing Is My Business… And Business is Good. Rattlehead starts off in an extremely fast manner and this is definitely the definition of early thrash metal in my opinion. The guitar riff is extremely rapid and Mustaine …

Alicia Keys is a phenomenal artist specializing in the R&B genre of music. One of my favourite songs from her is “You don’t know my name” from her “The Diary of Alicia Keys” album.
I personally wasn’t hooked on the song when I first heard it over MTV but I …

Sabaton’s first alnum Primo Victoria has stroken me as really good, although not at all original, when I finally saw the seond album in the store, I didn’t even think twice before taking my wallet out.
The Artwork looks really nice, but I’m not the kind of a man that …

Hysteria is a track by Muse which appears on Absolution. One thing I will say about Hysteria before really getting into the review, and probably something you will agree with me, is that once you start listening to the song, the rhythms which start the song and stay throughout …

Across The Universe is a track by The Beatles which appears on their final record, Let It Be. Across The Universe starts out with a pretty stripped down instrumentation, just Lennon and an acoustic guitar, and it’s pretty much like this throughout the entire track although some other sounds, …

Undisclosed Desires, a recent track off of Muse’s newest record The Resistance, is a song which I have been playing over and over on loop for about the past two days because I simply just can’t get over it, and therefore I felt a review on it would be …

The sleak flloyd rose guitar from Aria is an amazing guitar and suits a range of people, from beginners to advanced. It’s crafted fretboard is easy for a range of techniques from bending to tapping. It’s weight isn’t that bad, ideal for carrying round a stage etc. The paintwork …

The new two-member (Mike Sheppard & Vicky Backle) indie band, What Was Lost, from Vernon, New Jersey seem to have a unique and emotional style. I’m not too sure whether it’s the slow, sad voices or the crying of the guitar that makes this band so touching, but …

Dying Days is a song by The Screaming Trees. This song can be found on their album “Dust” and their greatest hits album. I find it kind of ironic that the Screaming Trees have a greatest hits album because they really seem to be an underrated band. Nevertheless I …

The Behind the Big Orange Curtain featurette shows the beginning of the Josh Groban Awake concert from Salt Lake City, Utah. I love seeing this behind the scenes look. I’m very interested by seeing how concepts come together and what goes in to making a production come …

It is no secret that Circa Survive is one of my favorite bands, and that i tend to enjoy the bulk of the library. There are a few songs that stand out for me, and “Holding Someones Hair Back” is just one of these songs. While many of their …

I like these guys. I am so glad to hear how they’ve matured from album to album. Please don’t hesitate to pick up their new album; it may surprise you. The lyrics are more mature; they’ve gone away from the teeny bopper-ish phase, which I couldn’t stand, to this …

Besides the two musical epics on American Idiot, Jesus Of Suburbia and Homecoming, I think that I would have to say that Letterbomb is my favorite, for lack of a better word, —˜normal’ song. I believe there’s just something about Armstrong’s vocals on this track which is brilliant and …

This review is one great big rave, so be prepared. The specific product being considered is Barbra Streisand: Barbra - The Concert CD. You have to understand that not only am I a lifelong fan of this wonderful performer, but I was there for this concert; well, …

If you want a song that really inspires you and shows you that you should never give in, then perhaps We Made It by Busta Rhymes ft Linkin Park is a song for you.
Some are not keen on rapping but Busta nails this intro whilst the piano of Linkin …

If you remember the Hot Fuss, the debut album from The Killers, released in 2004, would you mind addressing the songs from the band, who came from Las Vegas, which affected the New Wave and Britpop, while Brandon Flowers (vocals), sing with a fake English accent, ironically it is …

I have been a fan of Carrie Underwood since she won American Idol. Every song that she came out with after that I thought was really great and I truly believed that she was bringing country music to a completely different level. People started liking country music more than …

Miley Cyrus is a very popular Disney Channel star whose show was based around her being a singer and leading a double life. This show has brought her into the real world of being Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana and it has also brought about the release of her second song, …

Oh, how I loved Paul Anka for decades. Then he dumped his wife after decades of marriage and five kids (at least five, could have been six — my brain doesn’t recall). As much as I love his music, I look at him now and I just groan. …

The first single off the latest Stone Temple Pilots record released almost a year ago is the first track entitled Between The Lines. It has an upbeat tempo that it starts off the album with. This song starts off with a heavy guitar intro where almost immediately Scott’s …

When I first listened to Crazy Ex-Girlfriend by Miranda Lambert, I really thought that I am reading to a novel or something. There is a certain kind of story to this CD album that I like so much. Her voice is soft and crooning and she can even …

Ozone Baby is a song by Led Zeppelin which appears on their album Coda. Ozone Baby opens up with the full band entering at once, excluding Plant’s vocals, in a pretty straightforward rock sound with Page leading with his guitar and Boham and Jones creating a solid rhythm behind …

Church by T-pain is a song that plays towards the begging of the movie step up 2 where they have the dance off between Tyler and Andy. It is a very cool song for the dance they do. I like the song because it talks about how this …

Eat Me Drink Me is Marilyn Manson’s seventh full length studio album and was released in June of 2007 on Interscope Records, and produced by Tim Skold. This is the first album in years not to feature John 5. Marilyn Manson was not sure he wanted to make another …

Flaming is a song by Pink Floyd which appears on their debut record, The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn. Flaming opens up with a very unconventional sound as it sort of makes you feel as if you’re in the middle of the jungle due to some dark tribal-like …

I think everyone knows who Madonna is and who Justin Timberlake is and so these two popular singers did a combination in Madonna’s newly released song named “Four Minutes (to save the world)” from her new album entitled Hard Candy. I first heard Four Minutes on the local radio …

If You Can’t Rock Me is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album It’s Only Rock —˜N Roll. The track starts off with a distorted guitar rhythm along with a very brief lead being played over it. Jagger abruptly enters in with the vocals but …

Overview —“ Side II of Rubber Soul, The Beatles’ sixth album, is about just as good as Side I was in my opinion and that’s a good thing. After listening to Side I, I figured that Side II would definitely have to compete to be just as good, and …

Road House was an action adventure film from the late 1980’s which starred Patrick Swayze as a philosophical bouncer named Dalton. This review focuses on the musical soundtrack for this Zen-like movie.
I’ll start with my favorite tracks, which naturally are the two songs which Swayze sings. Both …

For years, Nick Lachey has been trying to emerge from the shadows from either other boy bands such as NSYNC or Backstreet Boys or his own (now ex) wife, Jessica Simpson. In 2003, Nick released his first attempt at a solo career which to this day has only sold …
