There are few songs which actually touch my heart each and every time that I hear them. “Inner City Blues [Make Me Wanna Holla]” is one of those. This song is actually older than I am, but has found its way into my subconscious as …

Holier Than Thou, the third song off The Black Album, is certainly much more aggressive than the previous two tracks of Sad But True and Enter Sandman. Although the aggression and speed of Holier Than Thou doesn’t match the first four records, it’s probably one of the more aggressive …

“Survival of the Fittest” is Mobb Deeps second hit single from their classic 1995 album “The Infamous”. This right here is classic NYC hip hop at it’s finest. What Mobb Deep lacks in technicality such as flow structures, and finesse they make up 10 fold with gritty realism in …

Gotta Get Away is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album Out Of Our Heads. The track opens up with a fairly slow rhythm where each of the instruments join in the track pretty quickly along with Jagger’s vocals as well. I wouldn’t say that …

I like when singers perform they act accoustic because it’s shows to their fans about their real vocal quality. Like this one, Nobody’s home singing by Avril Lavigne. I don’t know where’s Avril Lavigne perform accousticly, I just hear it in bonus track in her second album, Under My …

Overview - Crown Of Creation, Jefferson Airplane’s fourth effort, is primarily a pretty upbeat record with both energetic and melodic songs. The album features vocal performances by Slick, Balin, Kaukonen, and Kantner so it’s a very

Lady Gaga is known for being one of the most innovative and provocative artists of this generation. She seems to have revolutionized the industry in a mere matter of months. It isn’t simply about how strange she seems to be in the way she dresses and acts. It is …

TP-3 Reloaded

The song, “How Beautiful” by Twila Paris is a gorgeous song about the beauty of Christ, and His love for us as He gave His life for us. As a song to listen to, I love it. I listen to it and sing along with it. …

This movie, at the time, was the scariest movie I had ever seen, but I was also like twelve years old when I watched it. I have watched it again since then and I realize how stupid it really is. Maybe the second time just isn’t as scary, but …

I have always had a bit of a love/hate relationship with German hard rock band Bonfire. Some of their albums i really, really like and others don’t do much for me at all. For me, their whole output between about 1995 and 2007 was all pretty ordinary and most …

Freak Show was released in 1999, the album has 13 songs and it’s basically rock with roots from grunge.The album shows a mixture of fast and slow songs with great arranges and a more mature sound than Silverchair’s first album “Frogstomp”.

It has been a while since I have been pleasantly surprised by a musician or a band, which is why I was so happy to discover Florence and the Machine. Much like so many good musicians over the years, Florence Welch hails from the UK and brings …

When I heard this song playing in the movie, I had even loved the movie even more, this song had been the monument and foundation in which they had fallen in love and the lyrics and the song itself is incredible. It’s more of a classical and musical orchestrated …

This song maybe not be one of the newest songs out there, but it has a lasting legacy. I heard this song at a younger age, liked it, but really didn’t understand what it was saying, I liked the tune. Ten years later I listen to this song again …

White 2 is the fourth album from drone metal pioneers Sunn O))) and most probably their most ambient based work.
In contrast to White 1 which had a lot of spoken dialogue and discernible riffs, White 2 steers clear of this in preference to long sustained crescendos with next to …

After aimlessly traipsing through the back of muddy woodland Stanley Park for just under two hours one would surmise that standing in the rain another few hours listening to a band whose album 100th Window mostly contained minimal loops and a dark delve into classical music, would be torturous. …

I’m a big fan of spanish rock band Heroes del Silencio and their front man Enrique Bunbury. Bunbury has made all kinds of music, rock, folk, electronic, he is a chameleon just like Bowie. One of those songs he has released that has nothing to do with anything else …

Primer 55 isn’t a very well-known band, although I believe they had a song on a popular soundtrack, perhaps the Resident Evil movie? But this CD is quite a solid effort, maybe even great if you’re into the kind of hardcore tinged with funk sound they bring. …

I was only ten years old when Michael Jackson’s album Off The Wall was released in 1979. I could only look on in envy as my friend’s older sister played it all the time but I could not afford it with my pocket money. Although he had …

This seemed to be quite a heartfelt song from Freddie and Queen. His vocals seem quite relaxed certainly at the start but you can feel him building.
What he songs is very true. It’s as though he just can’t believe how people act on earth. What I do find interesting …

This is the third CD by Taylor Swift. I have been listening to it on repeat for the last three weeks. I have fallen in love with it, and there are plenty of reasons why.
First and foremost, Taylor has proved that she is not just someone who will …

Overview - Reload, the second half of Metallica’s double album, continues with the style change Metallica introduced on Load but doesn’t really expand or develop it. Generally the album feels basically the same as Load felt for me: some of the songs were brilliant, some were solid, and some …

I recently had the opportunity to listen to the song “Love Lockdown” by the famed rapper Kanye West. If you aren’t already familiar with Mr. West’s material go get yourself a copy of his other albums “The College Dropout” or “The Graduation”. Kanye West is usually known for his …

Real music strikes again, in the form of something a tad different from India.Arie’s (India Simpson) previous albums. While the soul in her voice remains, embedded and improved upon, the origins of the music used are as diverse as Middle Eastern and as pop as Britney Spears. Ms. Simpson …
