Take This Job And Shove It by David Allan Coe

Insane is a track by Scars On Broadway which appears on their self-titled debut record which came out a few years ago. Unlike the previous two tracks, Exploding/Reloading and Stoner-Hate, Insane is much more similar to Funny because it’s very moderately paced and it features Malakian singing in a …
System Of A Down - Toxicity (Music Video)
Overview —“ Toxicity, a third music video released by System Of A Down for their second album of the same name is pretty much a performance music video but it has a few twists thrown into it. Rather than be a straight performance video, certain sections of this music …
The Postal Service music

Girl Next Door by saving Jane
I really like the song Girl Next Door by saving Jane. I think many young girls can relate to it. The song tells about how the popular girls get everything they want and how the other girls get ignored, left out, or pushed to the side. A line that …
The Fray CD
I am a great fan of this band, and have been for a long time. While several of the songs can occasionally be heard playing in shops, most of the songs aren’t as well known, but can be bought on CDs or on the internet. This particular CD (called …
Korn
Korn’s self titled debut was released on Immortal/Epic in may of 1994 and recorded in Malibu California. This album is extremely dark and aggressive, the first song Blind, is about Jonathan Davis’s drug problems and how he felt blind a really aggressive song. Ball Tongue is less interesting but …
Metallica - Motorbreath (Song)
Overview —“ Motorbreath, the third song to appear on Kill —˜Em All certainly does match up to the expectations which were set by following The Four Horsemen and unfortunately this song really doesn’t even match Hit The Lights. Motorbreath honestly just doesn’t strike me as that good of a …

Beat the Devils Tattoo 2010 Album by Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
Even though I am a fan of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, and listened to some of their albums as soon as they were released, which was certainly the case with their 2003 album Take Them On, On Your Own, and their 2005 album Howl, I actually missed the release …
Metallica - My Friend Of Misery (Song)
I’m aware that I’ve been stating that many of the songs on The Black Album seem to be driven much more by Hetfield’s voice rather than the music itself, but I believe My Friend Of Misery is an exception to this. Whereas many of the previous tracks on this …
In Flames Come Clarity CD
I never thought that In Flames would ever change up some of their style(i.e the cheesy guitar riffs and the drums), and they did just that. Also, with the added keyboardist, added some atmosphere to their music, which is nice.
THEY ADDED A GROOVE! I have always wanted In Flames …
Cannabis Corpse - Dead By Bong (song)
“Dead By Bong” is the 5th song off of Cannabis Corpse album “Beneath Grow Lights Thou Shalt Rise” which was released in 2011. It was produced by Erik Rutan of “Hate Eternal” fame and whom I might add produced some of “Cannibal Corpse” newer albums. In other words, it …
Metallica - Killing Time (Song)

Torn Between two Lovers (song) from Mary MacGregor

Metallica - Death Magnetic
Overview - Death Magnetic, Metallica’s most recent album proves that even though the band was in extreme turmoil during St. Anger they did manage to come out of all of that horrible music and manage to make a record which puts them back on course. Although I will say, …
Sledding With Tigers - Going To Georgia (Song)
Going To Georgia is a song by Sledding With Tigers and is the penultimate track on their second release, The Hill Sheep. Before I begin, I should add that this is a cover of a band called Mountain Goats, so I unfortunately cannot comment too much on the songwriting …

Soundgarden A Sides

Nessun Dorma by Paul Potts
Nessun Dorma, the Italian Opera song recently sung by Paul Potts sounds oddly emotional. Even though I am English and cannot understand the lyrics Paul Potts is singing I feel touched when listening to it, passionate for some reason.
The violins playing in the background are soothing and relaxing. …
Smash Mouth (band)
I remember in the late nineteen nineties and early two thousands I had begun to discover pop rock. I was still very young, not even a teenager as yet and so I didn’t know where to get new music especially new music from the pop rock genre since that …

Train in Vain - Annie Lennox
I’ve liked a few tunes by Annie Lennox and the Eurythmics. I’m not overly fond of mellow music, especially by female singers. When my friend loaned me her Annie Lennox Medusa CD I didn’t jump at the opportunity to listen to it right away. In fact, it …
Alice In Chains - Man in the Box (song)
“Man in the Box” is the song that garnered Alice in Chains attention in the early 90’s. The song was released on their 1990 album “Facelift” but was released as a single in 1991. Alice in Chains without a doubt is considered the heaviest band out of the Big …

MGMT - Electric Feel (Song)
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 …
Pyramid by Charice ft. Iyaz
