Most of my friends own a copy of this by now. I don’t know, it just seems perfect for any occassion as a present. It’s also the best starting point to listen to The Cranberries, since no album sums up their career more, than this one has. Most best-of …

“Eagles Goth” is the 11th track on “Death by Sexy”. “Eagles Goth” is by far the shortest song on the entire album. What it lacks in length however, it makes up for in style.
“Eagles Goth starts off with a off key rockabilly riff. The guitar’s aren’t very impressive, the …

MGMT is a band that I’ve just started to listen to, and the first song which really got me hooked on them would have to be Electric Feel. Coming from their first record, Oracular Spectacular, Electric Feel is certainly a track to be an accurate representation of that album …

When it comes to dark jazz, the average listener tends to think of the melancholic and sedative performances of the likes of Duke Ellington, John Coltrane, perhaps even Miles Davis in his addiction years. But what most don’t realize is that, as a genre, dark jazz had never fully …

Skull and Bones is a remarkable record in that on this album Cypress Hill tried something they had never tried before, and yet there is such a strong sense that they know perfectly well what exactly they are doing, as if they had been doing it for years before.

This song is one of my favorite songs from Hillsongs Australia. It was a very touching song that really sings from the soul. It talks about the love of God for us that He has given His only Son for us to be save.

The new Jay-z American Gangster album is Jay-z 10th solo studio album. The concept of the album title and album itself is from the movie American Gangster. With jay-z being such an hip hop legend, and a great artist I expected nothing but the best from him. So as …

Soundgarden’s Flower is an aboslute must-have for any Garden fan, or any fan of rock music! The single contains two other fantasic songs: Toy Box and Head injury.
Released in ‘88, this three-track mini super album from Soundgarden is an absolute classic. Chris Cornell’s voice rips through the speakers, …

Night Flight is a song by Led Zeppelin which appears on their album Physical Graffiti. Plant starts singing in with the song right away and wastes no time establishing the melody of the song. Throughout the first verse there’s nothing all that impressive to me so far, everything is …

Homesick is another solid offering from the pioneers of so called “Moshcore”: A Day To Remember.
ADTR have gone through significant changes in terms of musical style over the period of time they have existed, some good, some bad. Homesick is somewhere in between. Right from the very first chugging …

Shania Twain is one of those musicians that I grew up listening too. While admittedly she is not my favorite female artist she is one whose music I have come to enjoy and appreciate over the years. ” The Woman In Me” was released in early 1995 and my …

Thinking of you: is a heartfelt song filled with love felt words could bring a tear to your eye. The lyrics are full of metaphoric sentences throughout the whole song, like most of Katy Perry songs. Katy Perry’s voice holds so much emotion that I cried almost on each …

When Two Worlds Collide is a song by Iron Maiden which appears on their album Virtual XI. The song opens up with a somewhat ominous sounding part which is driven by this interesting clean guitar part before Bayley comes in with the vocals of the track. I’ll be honest …

I finally picked up The Mung’s Debut cd “The Splatter Sessions” a couple weeks ago after putting it off for so long.
I realised i should have listened to this alot sooner as this release really got my attention from the first track.
Clocking in at around 15 mins, The splatter sessions …

The Night by Noble is a plastic Alto ocarina tuned to C Major. Its plastic body is durable enough to resist cracking if dropped, making it an excellent practice instrument for ocarina players. Hard plastic forms the body and a soft finish gives this ocarina a nice hand feel.

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 …

People is a song by Animal Collective which appears on their 2006 EP of the same name. Taking about a minute to introduce the track, a heavy percussive rhythm enters the song after about a minute in which gives the song a more definitive rhythm and I’m currently liking …

This is a great first album from this new pop punk band. More on the pop side than punk but still there. The lead singer embodies that sort of upper middle class dissolute rakish character and it works well. They’re certainly not the most intellectual band …

Your Love Never Fails started with the lead guitarist Chris Quilala as he is the also lead vocalist of this beautiful song. “Nothing can separate, even if I ran away, your love never fails”. It was so smooth and mellow when he sang it.
The song talks about how great …

Lost For Words is a song by Pink Floyd which appears on their album The Division Bell. The song opens up very slowly with some background noise before a drum beat comes in and then a rhythm played on a synthesizer. To be honest, the sound that’s building up …

At first I was a bit apprehensive about purchasing a guitar that appeared to be a “knock off” of a Martin D-45. Given the reputation that copy cat guitars generally bare, I was certain that the craftsmanship would be inferior. That coupled with being manufactured in Asia …

Someday I’ll Grow To Be As Tall As The Giant is a song by Animal Collective and is the penultimate track on their debut record Spirit They’ve Gone, Spirit They’ve Vanished. Opening up with the fantasy-like sound which is characteristic to this record, the song oddly seems to have …

First and foremost, Taylor has proved that she is not just someone who will …

“Endless Cemetery” is the last song on Cryptopsy’s 5th album “Once Was Not”. One thing to mention is that this is the first album that features the original vocalist Lord Worm since Cryptopsy’s masterpiece album “None So Vile”. Unfortunately, this would also be Lord Worm’s last time appearing on …

Into The Lungs Of Hell is a song by Megadeth which appears on their record So Far, So Good… So What. Something to note about this track before we begin is that it’s an instrumental so if you aren’t typically a person who enjoys those, this wouldn’t be a …

Overview - Coda, Led Zeppelin’s final studio record, is a collection of previously recorded tracks sometime in Zeppelin’s career that were never released on an album. Unfortunately I have to say right now, it isn’t too difficult to see why some of these songs never made it to the …

Good Charlotte Life styles of the rich and famous is a song that I agree with in the sense that rich people have no right to complain that there life is hard because they don’t even have a clue what a hard life is. The part I agree with …

Jesus Is King is Kanye West’s most arthouse album.
I’m surprised that “Jesus Is King” was Kanye’s lowest-rated album, especially considering that it sounds fresher than anything that came out in 2019 overall. Don’t think fresher = better, because this album is far from ideal. And there is a feeling …
