Pink Floyd - The Wall (Side III)
Overview - Side III of The Wall is, in my opinion, the strongest side of the entire album. The one thing about this side of the album is that it’s extremely dominated by Waters on lead vocals whereas on the previous sides it was at least a slightly better …
Come What May Song - Moulin Rouge Ewan McGregor & Nicole Kidman
When I heard this song playing in the movie, I had even loved the movie even more, this song had been the monument and foundation in which they had fallen in love and the lyrics and the song itself is incredible. It’s more of a classical and musical orchestrated …
Halsey - New Americana song
One of my most anticipated album release this year is probably Halsey’s “BADLANDS”. Just so you guys know, BADLANDS is a concept album that talks about the bad sides of a human being, hence the title.

The Velvet Underground - That’s The Story Of My Life (Song)

“Justified” Album by Justin Timberlake
Justin Timberlake’s “Justified” is a pretty good album, in my opinion. I was a huge fan of N’Sync back in the day so I will be the first person to tell you how much I hated the thought of any of the five members of that boy band becoming …

“Bad Brains” by Bad Brains LP (1982)
It was a common occurrence in the ’80s where a punk band’s first release is probably their best, no matter how many records they release afterwords or how long they stay together. They may release a lot of amazing records, but nothing can top their first. This holds true …
Reba McEntire: Greatest Hits, Volume Two CD
For me, Reba McEntire: Greatest Hits, Volume Two CD is worth it just for the first track, which is Does He Love You, the duet that became a smash hit with Reba and vocalist Linda Davis. This essentially launched Linda into her own career. It’s one powerful, …
Album: Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace Band: The Offspring
Well it’s been a few years since the last Offspring album, Expectancy of One, which I honestly beloved, wasn’t all that good . However! They have finally returned! Two years ago in 2008 The Offspring released this album, Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace, and it truly is rebirth. …

Deftones - Saturday Night Wrist
It was during the summer of 2007. I walked into the library that was about 10 minutes from my uncle’s apartment. I went to the CD section and decided to try out some music that I hadn’t really listened to before. That’s when I saw the girl on the …
Mingus Moves
The older, more powerful. This Predicate is feasible given, for a bass player who has great ability like Charles Mingus. Album under the title Mingus Moves (1973), has been released again. This is because public demand for jazz musicians were known eccentric. This album is a jazz album …

The Tallest Man On Earth - Shallow Grave (Song)
Shallow Grave is a song by The Tallest Man On Earth which appears on his record Shallow Graves. The track opens up with an intricate pattern which actually reminds me of a sound that Mumford And Sons would come up with. The vocals come in quickly and I think …
Life styles of the rich and famous by Good Charlotte
Good Charlotte Life styles of the rich and famous is a song that I agree with in the sense that rich people have no right to complain that there life is hard because they don’t even have a clue what a hard life is. The part I agree with …
Beastie Boys (music group)
While it took me some time to truly appreciate the music of the band the “Beastie Boys”, right now, even though I think their musical style is a bit unusual, I do find that the style itself and the lyrics certainly are fascinating.
One of the reasons why it …
CD Hoobastank
Hoobastank’s first album is simply called Hoobastank. It is all upbeat rock music, with clear vocals, not yelling. The lyrics are completely clean. I like that it is just a rock band most of the time, not a synthesized orchestra (although this does happen in a …
Metal of Honor Stovokor
Stovokor has some interesting sounds and I could relate to this death metal music but at one point, I did get “disgusted” and felt that the music were all kind of ill-tempered and definitely harsh and filthy. But I would like to take the benefit of the doubt …
Ultimate Power Ballads
A great CD is Ultimate Power Ballads. I love this Cd so much. It has got some really great songs on it that I grew up with from the 1970’s and 1980’s. It brings back great memories and emotions.
I love the song “Beth” by KISS. …
Queens of the Stone Age - Quick and to the Pointless (song)
“Quick and to the Pointless” is the seventh track off of Queens of the Stone Age album “Rated R”. The song is incredibly short and in a sense kind of lives up to it’s title. By no means is this song even close to being a single off of …
Baduizm by Erykah Badu
Looking at the CD cover of Baduizm by Erykah Badu, I am totally amazed. There is no close singer like Erykah Badu and I think her image is totally unique and very original. She is unpretentious and there are just so many good things about this CD album.
To …
Celine Dion’s All The Way: A Decade of Song Album
Obviously, I’m a huge Celine Dion fan, otherwise, I wouldn’t own this album, which effectively chronicles the artists hit songs for an entire decade. But more than that, I just love to listen to all the songs in this album, since Dion always sings in a heartfelt manner.
She …
Nine Inch Nails - Hurt (Song)

Album : Ruby Tigers - Year Of The Tiger (2010)
The fact that not many people know about this band yet is something that really annoys me, and I can only hope that anybody reading this review is convinced enough by the end to go and check them out. RUBY TIGERS are an Aussie band that blend indie rock …
Deeper Than The Holler
There is just something about country music and the way it tells a story that does not compare with any other type of music. One of my favorite music artist is Randy Travis. His song “Deeper Than the Holler” is an example of a great country love ballad. It …
Roomful Of Blues - Hook, line And Sinker (2011) Album
Sometimes i have a preconceived rough idea on what an album is going to sound like before i listen to it. I have found that without bragging i am right more often than not. The problem with doing this though, is that when i build an album up in …
Album : Face Down - The Runaway (E.P)
Today I had the opportunity to check out a nice little five track E.P from up and coming groove metal act FACE DOWN. Before you say anything, no this isn’t the same groove metal band by the same name that were prominent in the late nineties, this is just …

David Guetta (Musician)
The musician David Guetta is one of my favourite EDM Disc Jockeys. Even though he’s been around from the early 2000s, I only took notice of him when I really got into Electronic Dance Music in 2010 or 2011. He’s become one of my favourites because I find his mixes …
The Beatles - Sun King (Song)
Sun King is a song by The Beatles which appears on their album Abbey Road. The track opens up with a clean guitar riff which has a very nice melodic feel to it as the other instruments gradually join in to create a very calming and mellow atmosphere. The …
Hush Hush Music Video by The Pussycat Dolls
The main reason why I am intrigued by The Pussycat Dolls is because they manage to sing relatively well by doing exhaustingly well choreographed dance moves. They are always in sync. They have great sex appeal. They are a very talented group of performers that are entertaining in concert …

MGMT - Greyhoundredux (Song)
Greyhoundredux is a song by MGMT which appears on their first record, Climbing To New Lows. What’s interesting about Greyhoundredux is that it’s an instrumental track which surprised me to be honest. I mentioned in my review of Honey Bunny that you really can’t expect a young new band …

Hieroglyphics Full Circle CD
The last time anyone had heard of the Hieroglyphics crew together on one album was way back with their debut “3rd Eye Vision”. The album presented more or less Jazzy Hip Hop beats by the infamous JayBiz, and was chock full of intelligent and witty lyrics. “3rd Eye Vision” …
Les Paul & Friends “American Made World Played”
If you are a fan of blues music like I am, than you will find the cd “American Made World Played” by Les Paul and a wonderful lineup of other musicians as awesome as I do. I found this gem quite by accident, and it remains my all-time
favourite blues CD. …
Pink Floyd - San Tropez (Song)
San Tropez is a track by Pink Floyd which appears on their album Meddle. To be honest, when I listen to this track I don’t exactly get the feel of a typical Pink Floyd song. Although Roger Waters’ voice is quite distinct and it’s clear that it’s him, his …
The Osmonds: 21 Hits CD
The Osmonds: 21 Hits CD was released in 1995 by Curb Records and is a celebration of five singing Osmond brothers. The liner notes are nothing special and is less than what Donny Osmond got for his 25 Hits CD put out the same year. Somehow, that …
