Lupe Fiasco - The Show Goes On
The first time that I ever heard of Lupe Fiasco was in the song “Know My Name” by Blake Lewis. He sounded like a regular rap artist and there’s nothing special about him. But then after this song comes out, I really like this dude. First of all, this …
Silverchair - Neon Ballroom Album
This album was released back in 1999, and is one of my favourite Albums done by the Aussie band. The boys had started being in a band back in 1994 when they were young teenagers and has had a few heavier hard rocking albums before this one. I find …

Pillow Music - Natural Deep Sleep by David & Steve Gordon
Pillow Music - Natural Deep Sleep by David & Steve Gordon is something that I find to be very valuable. The reason I find this audio CD to be quite valuable is because it helps me to sleep on nights that I simply cannot turn off my mind. If …

Defense Remix (song by, Machel Montano feat. Lil John & Pitbull)
I first heard the song entitled Defense on a local radio station and I was instantly hooked to it. This was mainly because of the background music which is just addictive and just makes you feel like getting up and dancing as soon as you hear it. It wasn’t …
My Life Mary J.Blige
I really respect Mary J.Blige as a singer cum songwriter, as she has certainly come a long way from bankruptcy, and now, writing songs for this album.
When I first heard her voice before way I knew who she was, I had already been captured by her smooth sailing voice, …
Brotha Lynch Hung Loaded
Loaded is a very good CD by the rapper Brotha Lynch Hung. I really think that his style of rap and lyrics on this album were great. He starts the album off with a great song called DIE. Yes that is how simple the title is. Brotha Lynch Hung wastes …
Hype Magazine
I must admit, the one thing that drew me to buying this magazine in the beginning, was the notion of getting a —˜free’ cover Compact Disc at a price equivalent to just under one US Dollar, at the time (around 2006).
I turned out to be a very good buy …
Down Nola CD
Down is a joint collaboration of Phil Anselmo, Pepper Keenan, Kirk Windstein, Rex Brown, and Jimmy Bower.The musicians took a break from their musical commitments back in 1995 to record a pivotal record that would shape the musical landscape for years to come.The elements of the album were forged …
Faith Hill
We like country music and we like to go to live concerts whenever we can. We saw Faith Hill perform around three years ago at the MCI Center in Washington, DC. We don’t mind traveling to Washington, because it is only around forty five minutes from Baltimore. …
Brad Maule: Living it Up CD
The reason I know Brad Maule is from his role on the daytime soap opera, General Hospital, where he played Doctor Tony Jones. As a result of that role, I met him a couple of times at events and thought he was a nice guy. He sang …
Ashanti
I started listening to Ashanti during the early 2003 period, I think. And I thought that she has a pretty good voice. During that time, the existence of Rihanna in the music industry wasn’t born yet and Ashanti was one of the young talents out there, besides the …
Huddersfield Choral Society- The hymns album
I myself do enjoy listening to several Christian hymns. Not always due to the fact that they are religious, but to the fact that I love the sounds of the music and the voices, it makes me very relaxed and calm. I have been looking all over the internet for …

Iron Maiden - Drifter (Song)
Drifter is a song by Iron Maiden which appears on their record Killers. The song starts off with a guitar lead before being harmonized and doubled by more guitars and the bass as well, it has almost an old organ sound which is very interesting in my opinion. Di’anno …
Beanie Sigel - Mac Man (song)
Beanie Sigel is considered by many to be an underrated rapper. Though I’m not a huge fan of his, I appreciate his unique style. I just think behind his clever rhymes he kind of has an odd delivery and voice to be honest. Mac Man is the 4th track …
Chop Suey - System of a Down
Every now and again, a song comes along that has so much energy and life to it that it becomes a timeless monster of music. Driving guitars often populate these songs with hard chords being slammed out in a progressive manner, as the drums beat out creative rhythms that …
The Beatles - I Me Mine (Song)

Maxwell Unplugged CD

A mixture of smooth soul and funk with maybe a little jazz in there too.
My favourite track on this …
Pearl Jam band
I recently rediscovered the grunge and hard rock band called “Pearl Jam”. They were one of my favourite bands in the early 2000s when I first started discovering my love for hard rock music and bands such as Creed, and Lifehouse. These days, I’ve begun to do some re-exploring …
“Let it Rain” by Anthony Evans
We all know that when it comes down to great singers, gospel singers are among the best. Almost all the major artists out there have their roots in the church. But Anthony Evans is definitely an exception. He is not just a talented singer, but he himself is a …
Scars On Broadway - Cute Machines (Song)
Cute Machines is a track by Scars On Broadway which shows up on the band’s self-titled debut record. I’ll be honest and say that even from my first listen to the record, Cute Machines was always my least favorite track as I just don’t think it’s very well developed. …
Green Day - Whatsername (Song)
After following the musical epic of Homecoming, I genuinely believe that Whatsername is the best way that Green Day could’ve ended this record, or story I should really say. Whereas Homecoming was really just ten minutes of excellent writing, I really have no other way to put it, Whatsername …

System Of A Down - System Of A Down
Overview —“ The self-titled debut album by System Of A Down definitely made a new mark on the genre of metal in my opinion. During the time of this album’s release, there honestly wasn’t a whole lot of good heavy music still going on like it had been during …
Flo Rida - Club Can’t Handle Me Song
I was looking through the billboard charts in hopes of downloading more new songs that can be added to my playlist, and when I downloaded this at Limewire and played it for the first time, I almost hit “stop” and “delete” but when I fast-forwarded it to the middle …
Green Day - Song Of The Century (Song)
Song Of The Century is a song by Green Day which is the opening track of their most recent record, 21st Century Breakdown. The song opens up with a bit of noise which is similar to radio static, giving the track a vintage type of feel. Armstrong comes in …
System Of A Down - Soldier Side Intro (Song)
Soldier Side Intro is the opening track of System Of A Down’s album Mezmerize, the first half of their double record Mezmerize/Hypnotize. Just as some background information, Mezmerize starts off with the track Soldier Side Intro while Hypnotize ends with the track Soldier Side so this is one of …
Preliator by Globus
I am as gullible to any “Earth Shattering” sound explosion of Orchestral music as a doomsayer is to the End Of The World. I am already a huge fan of some of the best film score writers such as Danny Elfman …
As I Am by Alicia Keys
If I could change something from As I Am by Alicia Keys, it would be the image of her CD album. It is quite oldish looking, but I suppose she wants it that way. Not that bad anyway, but I would prefer the glam Alicia Keys on the …
Animal Collective - Sung Tongs (Album)
Sung Tongs is an album released by Animal Collective which follows their release of Here Comes The Indian. As an album, Sung Tongs has been hailed as Animal Collective’s breakthrough record, and I must agree with this statement. Whereas I found Here Comes The Indian to be pretty weak …
The Rolling Stones - Mean Disposition (Song)
Mean Disposition is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album Voodoo Lounge. The track starts out in a typical rock fashion with a guitar riff and a driving drum pattern as well. Jagger quickly joins in with the vocals with an average melody which doesn’t …
Twilight Soundtrack
Honestly, the main reason I purchased the Twilight soundtrack was for Robert Pattinson’s song, “Never Think” and “Bella’s Lullaby” by Carter Burwell. Not only that, but there were a few songs I herd in the movie that I particularly liked. These songs included: “Supermassive Black Hole” by Muse, both …
Emily Elbert - Proof Album
The first thing i want to say about this album is that i can’t believe that this girl is only twenty one years of age. Her professionalism, her songwriting skills and especially her guitar playing show a definite wisdom beyond her years and her new album is something i …
Deftones Adrenaline
This is the Deftones first official album released in October of 1995 and produced by Terry Date. This is a really impressive debut, the first track Bored is one of my favorite songs by the band. Minus Blindfold has a really cool guitar playing, not my favorite song by …
Explosions in the sky
I began listening to this amazing band quite some time ago (even though they haven’t been around for all that long) and I must say, as sadly often is the case with other bands, the sound of their music has NOT faded the tiniest bit. I can listen to …
“Meantime” by Helmet (LP, 1992)
In 1990, Helmet released their debut “Strap It On”, which packed one of the hardest punches of the early 90s. Two years later, they released their follow-up, “Meantime”, which was just as insanely brutal. In an era of some of the greatest rock n roll in history, Helmet came …
Sara Evans: Born to Fly CD
Sara Evans is a country singer who has had a fair amount of success. She’s slipped away a bit after some unpleasantness from her last marriage. She’s still around, but I don’t hear about her near as much as I was prior to the marriage collapsing. …
Geoff Bullock II
I do really love the music of Geoff Bullock II particularly his album “The Power of Your Love.” Listening to the album “Power of Your Love” will give you a one of a kind worship experience. The album is full of awesome and soul-reviving worship songs which include the …
Fergie - Labels or love

The Soweto Gospel Choir
Having been invited to their live video recording performance, what I expected of the Soweto Gospel Choir is nothing close to what I actually witnessed, and I mean that in the most positive way possible.
From what I had experienced before, a lot of choral music didn’t really appeal to …
The Doors - Hello, I Love You (Song)
Hello, I Love You is a song by The Doors which appears on their album Waiting For The Sun. The track opens up with a quick drum burst before leading into the main rhythm which is certainly quite distinctive and unique and has come to be associated with The …
