Obviously, we all know that Taylor Swift was not a pop star for at least …

This album is a remarkable work of art. There is an atmosphere on this record which is unparalleled. If the previous U2 album was brilliant, this album is post-brilliant. The previous album, Achtung Baby is a collection of very strong tracks, whereas this album feels more effortless and easy. …

The Vox AC15 CC is a 15watt class A tube amp that is something of an amalagam of previous AC 15 models. The amp is fairly big, and very heavy, weighing something in the neighborhood of 80 pounds, but it’s still easier lugging around than a halfstack.
The AC15 CC …

Knock-Down Drag-Out is a song by Weezer which appears on one of their self-titled albums, otherwise known as The Green Album. The track starts out with a very catchy vocal melody and this doesn’t let up anywhere throughout the song. The songwriting on this track is very basic, it’s …
