I’ve recently began listening to hip hop and on my daily grocery visit to Target I came across to J. Cole’s album The Sideline Story sitting on the shelf and I decided to give it a try hoping to increasing my variety in hip hop. If it was not …

Ok so i heard about this supposed “supergroup” band recently called chickenfoot which seemed like from out of no where started up with not that much hype at all so i decided to pick up the cd and give it a listen to see what i thought. You’ve got Joe …

All Hope Is Gone. This is the band’s fifth album and fourth album on Roadrunner Records, released in August of 2008 and produced by Dave Fortman and Slipknot. The band recorded the album in their home state of Iowa this time, and the album is heavier, faster, and better …

Overview —“ Turn The Page, Metallica’s cover of Bob Segar’s song, stays somewhat true to the original song but it’s clear that Metallica adds their own heavy touches to the song. I have to say that although Hetfield was praised for his work around the time of The Black …

The Rosie O’Donnell: A Rosie Christmas CD is really a pleasant surprise with all kinds of holiday songs sung by a crazy group of people. Some of these duets with Rosie you would think would be a disaster and yet they work surprisingly well.
Two quick notes. The …

The Judas Kiss, a second track on Death Magnetic which seems to be a fan favorite (along with All Nightmare Long) is yet another choice which I can easily understand. For the fans who remember the original Mission Metallica trailer, they’ll remember that the trailer contained a vocal section …

I got really excited about Jason Mraz one day after listening to his songs on youtube so I marched down to That CD Shop to purchase a Jason Mraz CD.
However when I got there I couldn’t find the one I wanted to buy, so I …

I’ve loved Barbra Streisand my entire life and never have I seen her happier than when she married James Brolin a decade or so ago. In ways, she’s been almost giddy, and as a fan, that’s fun to see. As Barbra says in the liner jacket for …

I remember when I was still in high school. I first heard the song “Only In My Dreams” and i loved it instantly. I found out that it was from a young girl who was raised in Long Island, New York. I bought her first cassette …

“Dirt Off Your Shoulder”
The Black Album
Roc-A-Fella Records
Director: Dave Meyers
“Dirt Off Your Shoulder” is the second single and music video from Jay-Z’s eighth (and purposed final) album, following “Change Clothes”. It looks like a lot of people may have agreed with me regarding his previous music video, because now Jay-Z …

Artist: SWV
Video: “Right Here”
Album: It’s About Time
Label: RCA Records
“Right Here” is the first single and music video off of SWV’s debut album “It’s About Time”. In this video, SWV comes across as somewhat of a TLC clone in terms o the clothes they don and the rap verse that …

Overview - Reload, the second half of Metallica’s double album, continues with the style change Metallica introduced on Load but doesn’t really expand or develop it. Generally the album feels basically the same as Load felt for me: some of the songs were brilliant, some were solid, and some …

Lion In A Coma is a song by Animal Collective and the ninth song to appear on their 2009 record Merriweather Post Pavilion. Immediately opening up with a bouncy rhythm, Lion In A Coma has an undeniable lighthearted sound to it right from the start. The vocal performance …

I first heard this song on my boyfriend’s ipod. I completely forgot that I had even heard it before because while we were playing Monopoly, we were listening to his ipod and this song came on. I asked him what the song was called and who it was by, …

First of all, I love this song. It suits Kelly so well and it’s something you would love to hear on the radio. So then onto the music video, Kelly looks amazing. The old Kelly, young and fun with attitude is back and is better than ever. Kelly looks …

213 is a song by Slayer which appears on their album Divine Intervention. The song opens up with a clean guitar playing an extremely eerie riff, although you know that if Slayer has a clean guitar, then the riff is obviously going to have a dark and eerie mood …

This is a very deep CD. Its filled with powerful lyrics and thrashing beats that really get you thinking. I found it to really be a good CD to listen to when I was driving at night and wanted to stay awake, but at the same time wanted to …

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 …

It Is Obvious is a song by Syd Barrett which appears on his album Barrett. The track starts off with a piano, an acoustic guitar, an organ, and Barrett’s vocals all at once. At first I thought that the sound was a bit too jumbled but it seems to …

I love Timbaland, and he’s always so sensual and melodramatic sometimes when it comes to his songs but they’re really wholesome, and when I heard Katy Perry was going to sing her too I was very ecstatic as I love her, and although they might have come off as …

I am a fan of this song coming from Avril Lavigne. It was made popular somewhere in 2002, a follow-up single coming from her album Let Go. I love the guitar and I love Avril’s voice. It is good that they done it in acoustic. It is just perfect …

The Wolf is Andrew W.K’s second album on Island Records, it was released in 2003, the album was going to be titled Blow Your Bone, but Island Records made him change the name, the album is more grown up then his debut, it still has many mindless and fun …

This mixtape is really good. I enjoyed every track on it. This is one of the few mixtapes that you can actually listen to all the way through without having to change tracks. This mixtape features tracks from Lil Wayne, U.G.K., Lil Flip, Chamillionaire & many more. Definitely something …

Ah Cannibal Corpse, what a lovely band! This song I am about to review is entitled “Stripped, Raped and Strangled”. This song appears off of their album “The Bleeding” and believe it or not is pretty much a single. It happens to be the third song on the album, …

Contra is the sophomore album by New York indie rock band Vampire Weekend. The opening track “Horchata” contains a rather calm verse that is occasionally punctuated by energetic drumming that reveals similar African roots as on their previous self-titled album. “White Sky” is a bouncy and whimsical track that …

‘Unwritten’ is the most my favorite song from Natasha Beddingfield. Everytime I listen this song, my feeling always happy and feel fresh to doing everything. This is a song that very good to declare as a happy spirit theme song for me.
The lyrics is very match with the music, …

Regrets by Jay-Z is the last song off of his debut album “Reasonable Doubt” released June 25, 1996. I personally find it to be a perfect song to conclude the album. The song Regrets samples “It’s So Easy Loving You” by Earl Klugh and Hubert Laws. This makes the …

Forever and Ever Amen by Randy Travis is a great love song about couple getting married. It tells a story about how they used to be wild in their younger days and now they are wondering if they can be faithful to each other forever and ever. It reminds …

A few days ago I bought lovestrong. by Christina Perri on iTunes. Now, I’m a huge Perri fan, so I was destined to like the album, but even so, I like it more than I thought I would. In fact, I’ve bought maybe 20 CDs in the past 12 …

The Cathy CC Carlson: Girls Know How to Rock CD is one of the albums available on a website where singers can post their songs and sell their works independently. I had been to the site before but then was pointed in that direction by Cathy herself when …

Enemy is a track by Scars On Broadway which shows up on their self-titled debut record. Enemy starts off with a very light guitar riff which is dominated by a wah effect and certainly has sort of a dancing, or at least moving, rhythm to it. Something notable on …

My Violent Heart is a song by Nine Inch Nails which appears on the record Year Zero. The song opens up with a very eerie rhythm played on a synthesizer which certainly gives the track an industrial feel. Reznor quickly joins in with his vocals and adds to the …

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 …

Overview —“ When I Come Around, the second music video released by Green Day also comes off of their third album Dookie. The song itself isn’t too bad, it’s not really one of my favorites off of Dookie but I do think it’s a good song, but I’ll admit …

Perhaps the most common opinion, which circulates around the world about the AC / DC, says that the band has not changed since at least the death of the first singer Bon Scott. Considering that this death occurred twenty years ago, and that since that time the team …

Take some urban music, and give it a tribal undertone and you’ll have a good bit of the sound that is Aurlar. This is the first album by MIA, and its a doozy. When I first heard this album i was reminded of the type of world …

I had the chance to purchase Dr. Dre 2001, also known as the Chronic 2001 and I thought that it was another classic hip hop album. Granted, it may not have been as good as the Chronic but still the beats were excellent as well as the productions …

I got a copy of this due to a recommendation from a good friend in the music biz that knows my taste pretty well and always seems to introduce me to things i like.
when he told me to seek this album out i had to call him to …

Make way for the new symphonic metal that will replaced Nightwish (after Tarja’s leaving the band to pursue a solo career it’s not a cool band anymore..). This dvd contains power-packed performance by the band. If you had seen The Silent Force Tour dvd you’ll be more mesmerised to …

It’s a weird title, but The Only Other Broadway CD You’ll Ever Need is really the name of this CD, which features a variety of Broadway standout numbers from a slew of performers.
The liner jacket covers each song, the play it’s from, and the performers, so it gives the …

Hed PE are a very talented band. Most of their music is not for everybody, but for people who like hardcore metal and rap core. But, this album can be accessible to a much larger audience. On this album, like on no other album the guys from this California …

She’s Leaving Home is a track which appears on Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band by The Beatles. Although the track is credited to Lennon/McCartney, for some reason I feel like McCartney had more influence in the songwriting of this track and I have to say that I’m extremely …

From the runways of Gucci last fall to the grand scale Chanel haute couture presentation, La roux’s tracks have reverberated across fashion shows and though the songs sound oddly familiar, it takes a few replays to munch and absorb all the ear-splitting synth pop beats then you start to …

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. …

Matthew Good’s latest release was released on October 6th 2009, and is called Vancouver. This release is homage to his life growing up in BC. The tracks are deep with profound and clever lyrics much like the rest of his work. There is
