Overview —“ South Of Heaven, the fourth album released by Slayer, definitely slowed things down after the extremely thrash driven Reign In Blood. I know that when people tend to think of slayer they think of extremely heavy metal, but more importantly, they think of extremely fast metal. When …

Alejandro is the third single of the album Fame Monster by Lady Gaga. The video of Alejandro was released on 8th of June online worldwide.

The first time I heard of the rockstar Lenny Kravitz was a couple years ago when I was in in my early years of high school. That was in the early two thousands, and I immediately feel in love with his number one hit at the time, “Again”. At …

After listening to Boulevard Of Broken Dreams and Are We The Waiting, I just have to say that St. Jimmy could not have come at a better time on the track listing. Whereas the previous two aforementioned songs are honestly just boring pieces of music which are predictable and …

Barbra Streisand’s Timeless - Live in Concert CD is, well, timeless. It’s perfection. It’s astounding. It’s fabulous. It’s awesome. It’s incredible. It’s … wonderful! I could easily fill up this review with nothing but superlatives because I just adore this New Year’s …

Like the band’s name Groove Armada, their song sounds groove too. Like this song ‘My friend’, it’s not a new song from them, but I really like it, because whenever I listen it sounds new for me.
The song sounds easy listening, it can calm down your mind when …

I recently purchased Circa Survive’s second full album, On Letting Go. This high anticipated sophomore release easily met and surpassed my expectations. The band has grown tremendously, and the listener can feel it. All members are in such complete sync together, that one could easily tell that all 5 …

I’m not a huge country fan but I do listen to country music on occasion. One of my favorite musicians in this genre is Tim McGraw.
I’m not sure why I like McGraw as much as I do. I think it’s the fact he sounds like a traditional country singer, …

16 Most Requested Songs is a jazz CD featuring Louis Armstrong on trumpet and vocals. The music is medium-tempo, fast enough to dance to but not overly exciting. Louis Armstrong has a somewhat rough voice for a singer but I enjoy listening to him sing- it sounds …

Silvio is a song by Bob Dylan which appears on his record Down In The Groove. Something interesting about this track is that it’s actually a collaboration between Bob Dylan and The Grateful Dead, I’m not exactly sure how much The Dead contributed to this song musically, but I …

The Tracks —“
1. Static Age —“ The Misfits open up the album with a song that isn’t extremely aggressive or fast which I can’t explain how glad I am about. After listening to their other albums like …

I met a friend on myspace and he asked me to listen to a couple of songs that he wrote and recorded with his band. My first though was on man because most garage style bands are no good, but I would have never hurt my friends feelings, so …

This Australian singer, Delta Goodrem makes some good music, or rather, sings some good music. I certainly think that she has some strong vocals and that if you are bored or just wanting to hear some love tunes, then go for this album. The title of her album …

Criminal is a song by Eminem which is the finishing track for his record The Marshal Mathers LP. The song opens up with a spoken word section from Eminem which is nothing impressive in itself, but I will say is a clever segue and fluid transition into the bulk …

Overview —“ Bonded By Blood, the debut album released by Exodus definitely established them as a thrash band to watch over. I think the only reason why this album didn’t receive a lot more attention, although it did still receive a lot, is because it was released in 1985 …

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 …

I absolutely love the song called Brothers which is part of the movie, “Next of Kin” that starred Patrick Swayze, Liam Neeson, and Bill Paxton. The three play brothers who have some conflict between them in the choices they have made, but who are never the less devoted …

Interstellar Overdrive is a song by Pink Floyd which appears on their debut record, The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn. If you can’t tell by just the title of the track, I’ll mention that this song has a very space-like sound and it’s also sound quite psychedelic as …

R. Kelly
“I Believe I Can Fly”
“Space Jam” Soundtrack
Jive Records
Director: Hype Williams
R. Kelly decides to put away the sex-me-up attitude and persona for a little while and does a PG gig for a change. Seriously, I would love to know who on planet Earth thought R. Kelly and “Space Jam” …

While Kenny Rogers has certainly never been one of my favourite singers, the country and western singer seems to be beloved by many of the people in my country. I can even remember that he was invited to sing as one of the international artistes at the Air …

The Buffet E11 Clarinet- The standard-issue clarinet that schools give out (if they can afford better than a Yamaha or Jupiter).
First Impression: My first thought when I saw the E11 was that it had a nice build to it- it looked a lot sleeker than it’s predecessor. I …

As I mentioned in a couple other reviews, I like dance and electronic music. However, at one point in my life, I had a love for eighties dance and new wave music. Now most of what I would hear would be from listening to songs being played on the …

“Amada”
Performer: Boston
Since listening to Boston’s “More Than A Feeling”, I have been on the prowl to find more of their music and I came across (what appears to be a power ballad) “Amanda”. The song “Amanda” is the first song off of their third album, “Third Stage”.
Again, I’ll confess …

I bought my Boss DS-1 used on eBay for $25 about three years ago. I had just started playing guitar and I wanted a basic distortion pedal that sounded good but was really cheap. I heard good things about it so I decided I’d give it a shot.
When …

I own every Johnny Cash CD, and have a huge signed photograph of him blown up on my wall. I have been a huge fan of his for many years now, and will continue to be even now after he has passed away. The legacy lives on in his …

Often times, concept music is a genre that just seems to do nothing but turn me off. For the most part, I find music that tells fictional stories to be insufferable, as they seem to always fall into the same boring tones regardless of who is performing it. This …

This album is amazing. Even though the two previous Pixies records were really good, this one was even better in some crucial respects. I think that what this album turned out to be is simply unpredictable, if you look at what the previous records were. There must have been …

Overview —“ Texas Flood, the debut album released by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble is a collection of excellent blues songs, and more importantly to me, excellent guitar playing by Stevie Ray Vaughan. I’ll be honest and say that I really don’t listen to very much blues rock …

This album occupies a special part in my heart. Every time I listen to it I am making a trip down memory lane, recalling the time when I was twelve-year old pre-pubescent Boy. This is why I try not to listen to it too often, to keep this album …
