I have no idea how I started listening to this band. I think it was because of the style they were playing, dubbed shoegazing, and that sounded pretty interesting. I was thinking, what can shoegazing be, or what sort of a music is that, and so, I stumbled upon …

I guess the ghetto-ness of songs like “Ignition (Remix)” and “Feeling On Yo’ Booty” were beginning to run dry for R. Kelly so now he’s decided to depart from his ghetto ways and do something out of the ordinary, taking a page from Mystikal’s “Danger” video …

This song is a song any teenage girl can relate to. The opening line goes “I like the way you sound in the morning… I like the way I can’t keep my focus…” This reminds me of waking up every morning for school, groggy and all. The only thing …

On the contrary, the Lavigne album that followed it, was a smash hit as …

Panopticon is a one-man black-metal band from Louisville, Kentucky. The band is sole member Austin Lunn, who in my opinion is an amazing multi-instrumentalist.
