The Lumineers - Cleopatra (2016 Song)

GO GO GO Beauty
Usually, I avoid character songs. Not that I hate them, or that they’re always bad, but they just sound odd sometimes. But Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei already has the girls singing in the openings and endings. One of my favorite character songs of theirs is this song, by Yuu Kobayashi.
It …

Stinkfist - Tool
Progressive rock is really one of the most diverse sub genres of rock, and easily among my favorites. The way that progressive rock seems always toy with time signatures and ambient sounds keeps the music fresh for me, even when listening to songs that I have heard hundreds of …
Lady Gaga’s “The Fame Monster”
Many people would say Lady Gaga’s new album “The Fame Monster” is not a good album. I can see where they are coming from. There are only eight different songs, and it is hard to understand any of them. However, to me, it is quickly becoming one of my …

Radiohead - The Tourist (Song)

“Be Without You”
“Be Without You”
Performer: Mary J. Blige

Amy Winehouse-Back To Black
This artist clearly needs no introduction; I don’t think that there is anyone on this planet who hasn’t heard of Amy Winehouse by now! She’s constantly in the press, usually for all the wrong reasons but, that said, she is one talented singer. This album has got to be her …
Cacophony - Speed Metal Symphony
Overview —“ Speed Metal Symphony, the debut album released by Cacophony is one of the best examples of an album I can think of where the guitarists work extremely well together. For those of you who don’t know, Cacophony is basically a neo-classical band whose two guitarists were Jason …

MGMT - Climbing To New Lows (Album)

Pantera Vulgar Display Of Power
This is Pantera’s second album, the title comes from the movie The Exorcist. Released in 1992 and produced by Terry Date again, this album is far more aggressive than the last, tighter, darker, faster, and I don’t think it could have been much heavier. Mouth for war opens the …
Insomniac by Enrique Iglesias

Life Is Peachy, 1996 Album by Korn

Tool’s Undertow Album
With so many bands including ones in the developing stage it is difficult to find good original music. Tool’s Undertow proves that originality does exist in the music business. With Adam’s unique guitar style combined with subtle and underlying lyrics this album has become one of my …
Iron Maiden - Fear Of The Dark
