Animal Collective - Did You See The Words (Song)
Did You See The Words is a song by Animal Collective and is the first track on their album Feels. Opening up with an interesting guitar rhythm, a listener should ideally get the feeling that they’re in for something special because I personally consider this track to one of …

Soulja Boy
I hear so much hype over Soulja boy. So many little kids run around singing, that “hop up out the bed song”, including my little cousins. At first I liked Soulja Boy, ever since he came out with his first song, “Crank that Soulja Boy”. I liked the beat …

Follow the Leader, 1998 Album by Korn

The Beatles - Blackbird (Song)

Pink Floyd - The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn
Overview - The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn, the debut album by Pink Floyd, is an album that I would categorize as being extremely experimental, layered, complex, psychedelic, and even spacey at times. Surprisingly, the band did not really go for any commercial appeal with this album at …

Album : Eddie Spaghetti - Sundowner (2011)

Metallica - The God That Failed (Song)
The God That Failed is actually a song that I didn’t have a great memory of, probably because I never really listened to this song very much, but after listening to it again, it isn’t too bad of a song. The thing about The Black Album is that none …

Take That - X-Factor 2010 - Final Performance
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 …

R. Kelly
“The World’s Greatest”

Selena Gomez & Marshmello - Wolves (2017 Song)
“Wolves is a journey about finding love,” while that description feels cliche for all the countless songs that shares the same theme, Wolves does indeed sound like a journey.

Jefferson Airplane - Bark
Overview - Bark, Jefferson Airplane’s sixth effort, makes it clear that the band really isn’t what they used to be and don’t exactly have that same type of wonder that they used to. Bark features a lot of new concepts including a violin in a few tracks, a track …

What Was Lost
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 …

Is this it, Album by The Strokes
This is the first outing for this US band and what an outing it is. With a sublime mix of rock and punky sounds make this band deeply reminiscent of the Ramones. Although since, many UK bands like the Libertines, Kaiser Chiefs and in the US bands …
Oasis: Don’t Believe the Truth

Call me when your’re sober by Evanescence
Call me when your’er sober by Evanescence is a very good song. I really don’t care for many songs by Evanescence but this one is an exception. It’s one of the few I like by them. This song has an awesome mysterious kind of beat to it which I …

City of Joy soundtrack CD

Rock Singer Bruce Springsteen
Bruce Springsteen was one of the main singers that I listened to as a teenager. I love his music though sometimes I find it very difficult to understand what he is saying because he garbles his words. He has, however, given me great music to relate to and enjoy …
I Can’t let go by Air Supply
