I bought Aenima after i had loved Tool’s next album (Lateralus). I found that Aenima is just as good. When Aenima was released Tool was just a promising name in the hard rock genre, this album enstablished the band not only as a great name worldwide, blessed by sales …

I love the movie, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, so naturally I adore the soundtrack from this musical as well. I remember seeing this in the theaters when it came out, and I went on multiple occasions. Dick Van Dyke stars, and he shows such zest, and tenderness, …

Creeping Death, another one of Metallica’s more well-known songs, due to the fact that it was the opening song to so many of Metallica’s live concerts in the past few years, has to be one of my favorite Metallica songs on any of their albums and certainly on Ride …

Long time listeners of Godsmack beware! Godsmack has released an acoustic album.

Shadow Of Deth is a song by Megadeth which appears on their record The System Has Failed. The track starts off with this odd opening voice shouting a few words before a pretty slow, yet very heavy, guitar riff comes in to provide a steady rhythm. The voice comes …

I personally do not like this album. Some of the songs on this album were commercially successful, even though I think that this album is quite boring and dull.
This album is rather long. The previous Cure album, Disintegration, was very good. Disintegration is also a very long album, but …

In This Twilight is a song by Nine Inch Nails which appears on their record Year Zero. The song opens up with a heavy sounding industrial rhythm before Reznor enters in to start singing over it. Reznor sings in his characteristic laid-back fashion which doesn’t exactly go with the …

“Beginning of what’s about to happen HWY 74″ is the opening track on the debut album “Wretch” by the band Kyuss. This is very well my favorite song on “Wretch”. This song being that it is off their first album, features all the original members of the band. That …

As a longtime fan of progressive/experimental music, I often gravitate towards sound patterns that seem to buck the norm, and stand out as truly not heard in mainstream music. Closure in Moscow usually does a pretty decent job of creating songs that sound as though they were never meant …

The famous East African, Kenyan born boy band, Sauti Sol are at it again with their new track ‘Melanin’ featuring Patoranking. The song, released only this week, caused a lot of frenzy on social media as it led to sweet and sour opinions about the music video.

This album is fantastic on numerous levels. Probably the most fantastic thing about it is that it was released in 1998. When you listen to this album, it is difficult to believe that. Combinations of rap and rock music were very popular, but not round at that time as …

In going all the way with its title, there are only three songs on the Beach Boys’ third album, ‘Surfer Girl’ (or four, if you don’t count the instrumental closer, “Boogie Woodie”), that are not about surfing, or that don’t mention surfing or the surfing waves in some capacity. …

This song maybe not be one of the newest songs out there, but it has a lasting legacy. I heard this song at a younger age, liked it, but really didn’t understand what it was saying, I liked the tune. Ten years later I listen to this song again …

Graduation overall sounds very laid back. It’s a bit more relaxed, than what you might be used to but it’s defiantly an album that you are going to want to buy if you love Kanye.
This is a solid and enjoyable collection. There are no skits or fillers that make …

Money Maker by Ludacris with Pharrell is a nice song that I like listening to and dancing to. It has a good beat to the song and I just love dancing to the song. To most this song is a dirty song and it is but it also can …

One of my favorite artists is Michelle Branch (solo or with The Wreckers). When her album Hotel Paper came out seven years ago, I immediately bought it. Even though it’s seven years old, I still find myself listening to the songs today. The album has many …

Live in Hollywood was made in RBD’s first L.A. (U.S.A) concert in January 2006 (Jan. 21st) in Los Angeles’s famous Pantages Theater. This cd is very cool and fun, because rbd is one of the best musical group that I already have seen. Their musics are impressive because there …

“More Than A Feeling”
Performer: Boston
I have to admit I had no idea who the music group Boston was before I saw the trailer for the movie, “Men Who Stare At Goats”. Every time I would see the trailer for “Men Who Stare At Goats”, I would hear this catchy …

Everyone seems to love Taylor Swift these days, including me. But I liked her before she got big, when she first came out with songs like “Tim McGraw” and “Teardrops on my Guitar”. On Taylor Swift’s new CD, she has this song called “Forever and Always”. If you get …

Canadian MetalCore band, The Agonist, is acclaimed for their hard-hitting riffs, lush guitar and vocal melodies, and brutal Death Metal growls and screams (done by female vocalist Alissa White-Gluz, no less).
