The song “The Sound of Silence” by Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel a.k.a Simon and Garfunkel (who was a musical duo who became popular in the mid 60’s)was created with a great deal of wisdom. It was like the composer/s was in a trance while writing this. …

Restless Heart Syndrome is a song by Green Day which appears on their most recent release, 21st Century Breakdown. The song starts off with the piano yet again and features a subtle string section as well which certainly adds a very somber mood to the track. Armstrong comes in …

As far as Pearl Jam are concerned, I have never been their biggest fan. I always had a kind of appreciation for their music. But I never took that into my heart. I appreciated the fact that they are making serious rock music. But I simply did not think …

In 1965, Patty Duke recorded a B. Ross and L. Crane song called Don’t Just Stand There which became a hit. I have always loved this song and found it to be a dramatic and emotional one.
At its core, many women can identify with Don’t Just Stand There, …

I have to say I’m digging Akon’s song Freedom on his new album also titled Freedom. I think the song probably clicks with me because Akon is an immigrant’s son and my parents were immigrants too.
In a time like this when a lot of people don’t like immigrants, a …

The sleak flloyd rose guitar from Aria is an amazing guitar and suits a range of people, from beginners to advanced. It’s crafted fretboard is easy for a range of techniques from bending to tapping. It’s weight isn’t that bad, ideal for carrying round a stage etc. The paintwork …

I Get Wet is the debut album by Andrew W.K., a guy who seemingly appeared from nowhere with the release of this album in 2001, the music is heavy, but not heavy enough to be metal, it’s hard rock and every song here is about partying (or almost) the …

In 1999, “Rock N Roll Terrorist”, yet another GG Allin compilation, was released. Consisting of 50 tracks on two discs, this album holds some of GG’s greatest gems from the mid-80s and the early 90s, completely skipping the garbage that dominated his late 80s releases. While it contains the …

Man on the Silver Mountain by Rainbow is one of my favorite songs of all times. Ritchie Blackmore’s hard rock guitar style is unbeatable and the very riff of Man on The Silver Mountain is one of the best riffs ever. Ronnie James Dio will always be one of …

Animal Collective are critical darlings and the penultimate band of modern psychedelia. Their distinct style blends multipart falsetto vocal melodies (a la Beach Boys), hypnotic beats, and electronic experimentation. While Animal Collective exhibits a high degree of computerization in their songs, make no mistake — these songs have a …

Shania Twain is one of those musicians that I grew up listening too. While admittedly she is not my favorite female artist she is one whose music I have come to enjoy and appreciate over the years. ” The Woman In Me” was released in early 1995 and my …

The Smashing Pumpkins are often compared with the grunge bands that also emerged in the early 90s, such as Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains, and at the time this album was released, they were seen as —˜the next Nirvana’. I think this is an unfair comparison, as the …

The Last Drop Of Morning Dew is a song by The Flaming Lips and the penultimate song on their third release, Telepathic Surgery. Opening up with an incredibly bland sound, Coyne quickly comes in with the vocal performance of the track which does nothing to help give the track …

I recently rediscovered the grunge and hard rock band called “Pearl Jam”. They were one of my favourite bands in the early 2000s when I first started discovering my love for hard rock music and bands such as Creed, and Lifehouse. These days, I’ve begun to do some re-exploring …

A very powerful voice by Darlene Zschech as she sings the song Here In My Life which deeply touched my spirit as I sing this song along even if I was alone or with somebody. I like how high is Darlene’s pitch. She is one of the best singers …

First time I hear this song, it’s sounds so weird to me, like the kids who has weird vocal sing this song. But, after I listen it more and more, I realize that I dance with this song. I enjoy it when it’s played.
‘Tokyo Drift’ from is original …

The DGX 305 Portable Grand is a 76-key keyboard from Yamaha. It comes with a user manual, accessory CD-ROM, and music rest but I bought mine from a music store that gave me a free keyboard stand and a Yamaha power supply which is good considering that the …

Your Bats is a song by The Flaming Lips which appears on their album Embryonic. The track opens up with a guitar playing with a wah-wah effect before the drums and other instrumentation also abruptly and awkward join into the mix. Interesting enough, all of this instrumentation drops out …

While Survivor may be known widely as that band who wrote EYE OF THE TIGER and BURNING HEART for the rocky movies, fans of the band like myself know that there is oh so much more to them than those two hits.
This self-titled album arrived in 1979 and …

The Hill Sheep is the second album released by Sledding With Tigers. Although I will say that some of the tracks on this album felt similar to some of the songs that were present on the band’s debut release, No Randy No, I can thankfully say that this album …

Call of the Wild is one of my all time favourite songs, even though I am not the world’s biggest fan of the singer in general. I do like a few of his other compositions, but this one really stands out for me. It is unfortunately rather hampered by …

Hear It Is is the debut album released by The Flaming Lips. I’ll start this review off by just making clear that the sound present throughout this record is significantly different than the sound the band would go on to be known for. Because of this, if you’re a …

Showing off the musical talent, the three members of TLC give us a great album with the songs on their CD “Crazy Sexy Cool”. With 13 songs in the list, most of them we all know and can sing along to, for example…those that we know are: Creep, Diggin’ …

I love Taylor Swift’s Love Story single. Yet again, the artist has come up with an original composition. Well, nothing is original in this world anymore. In fact, the singer based her song on a classic love story of Romeo and Juliet. She has no …

Slave is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their record Tattoo You. Slave starts off with a drum rhythm played on its own before the guitar riff comes in and out of the track and seems to have somewhat of a blues sound to it, the …

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 …

Within the past decade, music from video games have developed into a genre all for themselves. Its not as if they have just become popular. Dating back to the 1980’s, the melodic themes for The Legend of Zelda, Super Mario Bros, and Metroid engrained themselves into the …

It’s Only Rock —˜N Roll (But I Like It) is a track by The Rolling Stones and the title track to their record It’s Only Rock —˜N Roll. This track opens up in a pretty laid-back way and the rhythm is pretty relaxed and the first verse of the …

Broken, Beat, and Scarred, the third track off of Death Magnetic continues the pattern of songs which sound a lot closer to tracks which Metallica were writing during their earlier days, the 1980s and very early 1990s. Broken, Beat, and Scarred has somewhat of an eastern sound to it …

Wildest Dreams is a song by Iron Maiden which appears on their album Dance Of Death. Wildest Dreams starts off with a pretty powerful guitar rhythm which has a pretty driving feel, it doesn’t seem to be all that aggressive but it certainly lends itself nicely to Bruce Dickinson …

The song ‘My home’s in Alabama’ is by the group Alabama. It is a good song that makes you think of home where ever that may be. For me it reminds me of what my mom used to say when I was a kid and the fact that we …

Fuck you right back by Frankee is a reply to Eamon’s song fuck it. It is the other half of the story because every story has at least two sides and some times more. This is the girls side and I like it better than the guys side …

This is definitely my taste of music. Rap, hip-hop kind, and was loaned to me by my best friend, Lisa. She really is a great clubber type, and she recommended me to this CD, saying that I will certainly dance to it, and will sort of hum …
