Music Reviews
Singer: Jermaine Jackson
I actually look at Jermaine Jackson as the best singer of the Jackson Family, although I often get shouted at for saying that. Jermaine could have easily gotten to the heights that his brother Michael Jackson did if he had his heart truly into the music, but instead he …
Metallica - My Apocalypse (Song)
My Apocalypse, the final song on Death Magnetic, should certainly remind listeners of Metallica used to close their records with songs like Damage, Inc. and Dyers Eve, or at least that’s what this song certainly does for me. For those of you who have heard the two aforementioned songs …
The Only Other Broadway CD You’ll Ever Need CD
It’s a weird title, but The Only Other Broadway CD You’ll Ever Need is really the name of this CD, which features a variety of Broadway standout numbers from a slew of performers.
The liner jacket covers each song, the play it’s from, and the performers, so it gives the …
INXS: Switch
I’d never heard INXS before i saw the TV show Rockstar:INXS. I liked the show very much and now i see them on TV with this new album Switch. So i decided to try them out. I don’t feel sorry for buying the CD, infact, i love the set …
Bob Dylan - Hurricane (Song)
Hurricane is a song by Bob Dylan which appears on his record Desire. One thing I should point out about Hurricane as it’s quite a long track, around eight and a half minutes, so if you aren’t really a fan of longer songs, this track may not be that …
Lady Gaga song, “Heavy Metal Lover”
Lady Gaga’s “Heavy Metal Lover,” from her latest album “Born This Way,” deserves a second chance. The first time I heard the song, I was only half-interested in what I was hearing. The first lines—”“I want your whiskey mouth all over my blonde south”—”caught my immediate attention, and I …
Best of Both Worlds a song from Miley Cyrus
I so love this song very much with my entire life. The first time I heard this one was 2007. I admit I am not a Miley Cyrus fan but I watched her television series before but not daily. That was in Disney Channel. This is the theme song …
Me and Little Andy
‘Me and Little Andy’ is such a sad song about a little girl with her puppy knocking on a door in the cold and rain wearing nothing but rags. She tells how her parents have left her alone at the age of six or seven with her puppy. …
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. …
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 …
Cream - Disraeli Gears
Overview - Disraeli Gears, Cream’s second album, is a great musical album and has strong vocal performances as well in just about every track on here. I will say that most of the record is more laid back and mellow but they’re are still some great energetic tracks on …
Led Zeppelin - Four Sticks (Song)
Four Sticks is a song by Led Zeppelin which appears on their iconic record Led Zeppelin IV. The track starts off with a pretty famous guitar riff from Page and you should also take note of Bonham’s rhythm behind Page as it strikes me as an interesting rhythm and …
“I Kill Hippies” 7″ by Jack Tragic & The Unfortunates (Single, 1983)
Jack Tragic & The Unfortunates were punk band from Connecticut, USA, who released full-blown, phenomenal hardcore during the time punk was on its way down. These guys were just about as obscure as they got and seemed to surface a couple years late. Their 1983 single, “I Kill Hippies”/”Mind …
Camp Rock 2 Soundtrack
I just finished watching the Disney Channel Original Movie: Camp Rock Two - The Final Jam. I also own the soundtrack and have listened to it many times. Unfortunately, I am not as much of a fan of the Camp Rock Two —“ The Final Jam soundtrack as I …
Suicide Silence - The Cleansing (Album)
I have been listening to this album for over a week now. I even listen to it in bed before I sleep. The reason for this is very simple. It’s brilliant. Where do I even begin to review this band? First of all they call this genre Deathcore. I …

All Mixed Up by 311
I so love the song All Mixed Up by 311. Even though this is a song featured years back, I just could not forget the whole hype surrounding this song.
Truly awesome and I love the lyrics as well. Even though it laced at nothingness, the song …
Mer De Noms (A Perfect Circle Album)
I still have a special love for rock music, but to be honest, there are very few bands that I can honestly say that I am and have ever been a devout fan of. As a teenager I was generally a fan of the music and the way it …
Animal Collective - Loch Raven (Song)
Loch Raven is a song by Animal Collective and is the penultimate track on their album Feels. Opening up with a gentle feel, Loch Raven takes its time in introducing various instruments to the mix and continues to push Feels in a more melodic direction that has been established …
System of a Down The Toxicity Album
This is the album that put System of a Down on the map, if it wasn’t for this album then they wouldn’t be where they are today and it’s easy to see why, it’s a fantastic album in a lot of ways. It’s not my personal favorite, but it’s …
Major Lazer (Electronic Music Band)
I’m not a real Major Lazer fan. I’ve only been really listening to them since 2013, a little before I went to see them in concert for the first time. While I do like a few of their songs, I have to say that I’m not as hugely invested in …
Mule Variations (Tom Waits Album)
“Mule Variations,” though maybe not his most appreciated album, is probably in my top five by Tom Waits. It’s gritty, folk-based, but not really limited to genre. While not every track did it for me, the ones that did nailed it. And of course, with any album by Waits, …
Animal Collective - Fall Be Kind (Album)
Fall Be Kind is an EP released by Animal Collective to follow their previous EP release of Water Curses. I will say right now that I think Fall Be Kind is overall a very strong EP, but it does have one fairly large flaw to it which is that …
Bob Dylan - Desolation Row (Song)
Desolation Row, the final song to appear on Bob Dylan’s record Highway 61 Revisited is a track which I consider to be a perfect ending for one of the greatest records that I’ve ever had the privilege to listen to. As if you thought some of the other tracks …
A Soap Opera Christmas CD

Superhuman Chris Brown
I have never loved any R n b artist until Chris Brown. He is truly a brilliant artist with a very lovely and unique voice. Not that other singers don’t have his talent, but Chris Brown sure is one of the best I guess in the modern songs I …
Sway by Pussycat Dolls
The original singer of the song Sway was a female. That I know, but I am not quite sure of the original singer’s name or anything. I know that Michael Buble had make a cover version of this song as well and then on the Pussycat Dolls.
If you …
The Velvet Underground - That’s The Story Of My Life (Song)
That’s The Story Of My Life is a song by The Velvet Underground which appears on their third and self-titled record. The song starts out in a very lighthearted mood and it has almost a childish tone to it in my opinion due to the very light guitar riff …
Broke 2000 Album by hed PE
This album occupies a very special part in my heart. I do not know exactly why, but I remember the day, the night, when I bought this album so vividly, with such clarity and detail. It was a winter night. It was snowing. It was rather late and dark. …
Megadeth Endgame
The new work from American trash metal band Megadeth has hit the stores with a bang. The album features a new addition to the line up in the guitarist Chris Broderick, and the sound they produced is amazing. I’ve listened to the album several times now, and can say …

Metallica - No Remorse (Song)
Overview —“ No Remorse, one of the later tracks on Kill —˜Em All, is yet another one of Metallica’s excellent examples of a track which was influential to the development of thrash metal. In fact, you could argue that pretty much of all the tracks which are on Kill …
Iron Maiden - Still Life (Song)
Still Life is a song by Iron Maiden which appears on their record Piece Of Mind. The track starts off with this very odd talking section which I’ve read is meant to be played backwards in order to take a jab and poke some fun at the critics deeming …
Disturbed: Ten Thousand Fists CD
After two years of waiting Disturbed has finally released their third album. Anyone who has heard the single “Stricken” should indeed know that this album “rocks”, and by “rocks” I mean it “rocks” hard. From the the first track “Ten thousand Fists” to the end you can …

The Slugs were a short-lived punk band out of NYC who, like many punk bands of the time, made their mark in the punk scene with just two 45’s- one in 1979 and another in 1980. In 1981 both were re-released in one sleeve, making for a killer combination …

The Flaming Lips - Thanks To You (Song)
Thanks To You is a song by The Flaming Lips and the eighth song on their second effort, Oh My Gawd. Opening up with a clean guitar part, I’m slightly reminded of a tone Led Zeppelin would come up with on one of their earlier records until the vocals …
Faith No More - Surprise! You’re Dead!
“Surprise! You’re Dead!” is the 4th song off of Faith No More’s infamous album “The Real Thing”. This is the third album released by Faith No More, however it is the first to feature former Mr. Bungle vocalist Mike Patton. Although “Surprise! You’re Dead!” wasn’t necessarily considered a single, …
Whips And Chains by David Allan Coe
Whips and Chains by David Allan Coe is a weird song. It is probably my least favorite song that he does. It just goes to show that you can write a song about almost anything though. I don’t think this one made it very big because I had never …
Andrew Jackson Jihad - Big Bird (Song)
Big Bird is a song by Andrew Jackson Jihad and is the sixteenth and final track on their 2011 album entitled Knife Man. Opening up with the vocals singing alone, the track has a similar sound to the track to precede it, Free Bird, in that the vocal performance …
The Grateful Dead - Mountains Of The Moon (Song)
Mountains Of The Moon is a song by The Grateful Dead which appears on Aoxomoxoa. The track starts off in a very melodic fashion and opens up with a nice rhythm played on what sounds to me to be a harpsichord. Garcia sings along with this rhythm as an …

Linkin Park’s Album Hybrid theory is one of my all time favorite music CD’s. I am an avid Linkin Park fan and have been to three different concerts featuring Linkin Park. All of them were a blast and each outdid the other. For …
Off The Wall Michael Jackson
I was only ten years old when Michael Jackson’s album Off The Wall was released in 1979. I could only look on in envy as my friend’s older sister played it all the time but I could not afford it with my pocket money. Although he had …
Sledding With Tigers - The Arrested Cats (Album)
The Arrested Cats is the third album released by Sledding With Tigers. As a follow up to The Hill Sheep, I can thankfully say that I think Sledding With Tigers really fulfill their potential in terms of songwriting on this record. Although the album does certainly retain the youthful …
Music Video of Love Game by Lady Gaga
Love game is the third single of the album “The Fame” by Lady Gaga. It is an electropop song that is very successful in charts.
The music video is so scandalous that some channels banned it. I think this video is so amazing and joyful. I can feel the inspiration …
Type O Negative The Best Of Type O Negative
This is a greatest hits collection of songs from Type O Negative. The album was hastily thrown together and released with a generic album cover, and without the consent of the band, Roadrunner Records had the right to do it, so they did. This collection could be the reason …
Nine Inch Nails - Terrible Lie (Song)
Terrible Lie is a song by Nine Inch Nails which appears on their debut record, Pretty Hate Machine. The track starts off with a dark sounding synthesizer and drum part, quite characteristic of this album to be honest. A heavy yet simple guitar part comes in which Reznor sings …
