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 …

I happened along Arthur Lewis on Indie 911. His artist page is: http://www.indie911.com/arthur-louis.
He has a feel to him that isn’t fake or pushed. It sounds more realistic …

The Worst is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album Voodoo Lounge. The track opens up with an acoustic guitar part before the vocals come in. To be honest, the vocals don’t sound like Jagger at all and I’m actually not convinced that this is …

The Lantern is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album Their Satanic Majesties Request. I’ll say right now that The Lantern has an extremely odd structure which makes describing this song somewhat difficult because the track is extremely unpredictable and is constant changing in ways …

The song ‘Along Came Jones’ by Ray Stevens is a classic type of song. It seems to be modeled after an old western movie where the bad villain takes a hostage and is foiled by a hero. The hero typically saves the hostage and is able put …

I was very exciting last spring to find out that a new Garbage album was going to come out after such a long wait, since their 2005 album, Bleed Like Me. And so I basically downloaded the album as soon as it was released. I will be honest and …

I really like music that mixes a few good genres into something that is a nice swirl of both. Among my favorite combinations of genres is the mix of rock with jazz inspired pieces. There really is something about a piano, and sometimes horns, in a band that really …

This is the first outing for this US band and what an outing it is. With a sublime mix of rock and punky sounds make this band deeply reminiscent of the Ramones. Although since, many UK bands like the Libertines, Kaiser Chiefs and in the US bands …

I recently received one of these pedals as a gift and immediately tried it. At first it took a while to get used to it due to all the different effects available. I don’t find this pedal that good as it just changes an effect slightly when you hit …

Overview - Workingman’s Dead, The Grateful Dead’s forth effort, strays extremely far away from the more psychedelic sound that the band developed on Aoxomoxoa and Anthem Of The Sun for a much more folk rock and even country sound. Although there’s a huge change in sound, the band honestly …

Bounce is a song by System Of A Down which appears on their second album, Toxicity. Right from the start the song is extremely aggressive and Tankian matches the intensity of the music with his own vocal delivery. The track is pretty hectic, although to no extreme sense, it …

My first real introduction to the electronic rock band Orgy was when I was around fourteen years old. While that was a couple years after their first studio album Candyass was released in 1998, they were still fairly popular amongst a lot of teens especially since their vocalist …

Hearing Barry Manilow sing songs from the 70’s was spine-tingling. He’s not only a musical product of the 70’s himself, but he chose some very popular songs of that era to sing for this CD. All the songs are familiar, yet more-so with Barry’s warm vocals. The songs seem …

Weekend Wars is the second track off of MGMT’s second release, Oracular Spectacular. When I first started listening to MGMT, Weekend Wars was one of the first tracks to really jump out at me. I will say that compared to Time To Pretend, Weekend Wars changes much more, and …

Overview - Broken, the first EP put out by Nine Inch Nails, is basically eight extremely aggressive songs just fueled by anger, which becomes obvious not only through Reznor’s voice but even through his guitar playing. Generally I’m not a huge fan of albums that have just one feel …

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 …

I was in the passenger seat of a car with my aunt when I was listening to the song, “Life is Beautiful” by Sixx am. It was nearing the end of August, and I was looking at the way the sun was shining through the trees; the fleeting company …

When it comes to music I know when I really like an act or artist because I buy an album pretty much based on one or two songs and then just seem to listen to these songs over and over again.
This was the case with James Morrison. His song …
