Paranoid is a cover by Megadeth which appears on their record Hidden Treasures. Hopefully if you’re a fan of metal then you’ll know that the original version of this song is by Black Sabbath and that you’ve heard the track before. If not, then I’d highly recommend first listening …
Album : Black Country Communion - Black country (2010)
Nearly every year these days the is some sort of self-proclaimed musical super-group that come out and expect to blow the world away. Most of the times these bands are over-rated but last year was definitely the year of Black Country communion. If ever a group was able to …
Limewire Music Downloader Free Edition
I had used Bearshare for years in downloading music but it seemed that they only have a few selections and seeders (people who share and upload) so my husband told me to switch to Limewire and just get the free version as it is still better then Bearshare.

Album : Survivor - Eye Of The Tiger (1982)
While everybody is aware of the title track from the album EYE OF THE TIGER, it truly surprises me how many people i speak to that had no idea that it was actually the title of the band’s 1982 long player. This strikes me as odd because the album …

MGMT - Climbing To New Lows (Album)
Climbing To New Lows is the debut album released by MGMT. Though most fans associate MGMT with Oracular Spectacular, or Congratulations to a lesser extent, I still believe that Climbing To New Lows has some good songs on it and shouldn’t be written off as a poor debut effort. …
Atreyu (band)

Metallica - The Struggle Within (Song)
The Struggle Within, the final track of The Black Album, is a song which unfortunately sends the album off on pretty much just an average note. I’ve praised Hetfield’s vocal work and performance throughout this entire album but unfortunately I can’t really say that about this track. I think …

Falling Down (song) by Avril Lavigne
The meaning of this song is very deep. It takes me a thousand times before I could be able to get the meaning. I am not sure if Avril is the song writer of this song, but if she is, then she deserves to be applauded for writing this …

Fender Stratocaster 60th Anniversary Guitar
Two years ago last boxing day I purchased my Fender ‘Diamond Anniversary’ American Stratocaster guitar. I believe I have owned the guitar long enough now to say I know how it plays, and to be able to fairly review it.
The Stratocaster is a very versatile guitar, as it is …
Schecter Hellraiser C-1 FR

Vol.3 (The Subliminal Verses), Slipknot Album
I think that this album is a disappointment. I started listening to this album as soon as it was released, in 2004. And even then I immediately disliked what I heard. The music simply did not impress me then. I felt untouched and uninterested by the music I heard. …
Money Maker by Ludacris with Pharrell
Money Maker by Ludacris with Pharrell is a nice song that I like listening to and dancing to. It has a good beat to the song and I just love dancing to the song. To most this song is a dirty song and it is but it also can …

As I Am by Alicia Keys
If I could change something from As I Am by Alicia Keys, it would be the image of her CD album. It is quite oldish looking, but I suppose she wants it that way. Not that bad anyway, but I would prefer the glam Alicia Keys on the …

The Best Of Star Trek: 30th Anniversary Special! Original TV Soundtrack
The Best Of Star Trek: 30th Anniversary Special! Original TV Soundtrack is a soundtrack that I was disappointed in somewhat. I think several musical pieces are more deserving to be on this soundtrack than what was ultimately decided on and I would not consider this soundtrack to represent the …

Scarlett Johansson’s Anywhere I lay my head

Jack’s Big Music show
I wanted to write a review about this children’s show called Jack’s Big Music Show. Not only is the show focused on music, it showcases all kinds of music. From rock, to opera, to jazz and dance, and everything in between. I think music is so important not only …
Metallica - Shoot Me Again (Song)

The New Pornographers (band)

One of the biggest …
