The soundtrack for the movie Twilight fits the story perfectly. It is one of my favorite CDs in my own collection. I am very picky about my music. Prior to listening to this soundtrack, I only knew of two bands that were listed.

Cannibal (2006) is the fifth album by Static-X and in my opinion the band’s most aggressive and best album yet, while many bands in their position would make a horrible experimental album, Static-X makes an even heavier album, with better guitar solos, and a faster tempo. The album was …

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. …

I don’t know about other people. And I don’t know whether they see the same things as I do. But have you seen other musical talented people in the musical world, that have grown so much in performace, in atttitude, in passion as Beyonce? I mean surely there is …

Ok now allot of guys are probably thinking “EW.” but seriously if you look at it from a musical standpoint the album isn’t THAT bad. I know that girls overrate him and guys underestimate him but if we all look at it from the same point, you will see …

The Blackening is metal legends Machine Head’s sixth offering to the “Djent” scene.

I must say that I am a huge fan of Miss Lana. Ever since her topnotch work with her debut album “Born to Die” I was consistently waiting for her next record to come out.
There’s no one in the industry with a more soothing and delicate voice. I never …

I am such a fan of laid back and mellow music. From the first time I heard Sade’s rhythmic voice, I had to get her album. I have been smooth sailing ever since. I enjoy this music cd so much because it has all of best songs such as …

The Kaiser Chiefs is a band hailing from the United Kingdom. I first was introduced to their music by a friend of mine from England back in 2005. Their first album; Employment, was a hit with me. I liked all their songs on that release and then came Yours …

Overview —“ Kerplunk, Green Day’s second album, showcases the band starting to get closer and closer to what become their signature sound. I have to say that for the most part, this album really doesn’t have any major flaws to it. Yes, there may be some tracks which I …

The Black Keys, a blues rock duo out of Ohio, has been releasing records since the early 2000’s, but truly broke through to mainstream success with the release of 2010’s “Brothers.” A good friend of mine, who’s gotten me into countless bands, turned me onto the Keys years back, …

Overview —“ High Speed Dirt, a music video released by Megadeth for their fifth effort, Countdown To Extinction, is a song and music video focused all about skydiving. It’s interesting that Megadeth chose to not release this song as a single yet still make a music video for it. …

I have seen a poem entitled “Footprints in the sand”. And I was able to hear an old version of it. If I am not mistaken, this is a Christian song which speaks about a man having a dream that he was walking with Christ. Then, he faced a …

WHen I was younger in my earlier years of high school, I had just gone into an alternative rock phase. I think that was about the same time which a new alernative rock singer named Michelle Branch emerged upon the scene. I liked her since I thought her songs …

Holiday is a song by Weezer which appears on their self-titled debut record, otherwise known as The Blue Album. Opening up with an interesting lead guitar line accompanied by the rest of the band, Rivers Cuomo comes in with the vocals after this brief intro with a vocal delivery …

U.F.O. Story is a song by the Flaming Lips which appears on their third studio record, Telepathic Surgery. The track opens up with a recording of someone talking about their experience seeing a U.F.O. which goes fittingly with the title of the track, but this does get dragged out …

AWESOME!!!! My girlfriend bought this cd for me because she liked it and I was a little hesitant, but I decided to give it a try. Now I am addicted! She starts out with a pretty generic fun pop song breakout that isn’t your favorite on the cd, but …

Peaceful Evening by David & Steve Gordon is an audio CD that captures a particular time of the day and transfers that part of the day into slow and soothing musical pieces. Much like the often warm sun that sets in the evening, these tracks too are composed in …

As one of the earliest songs from Circa Survive, “Handshakes at Sunrise” remains one of my favorites, if only for its sentimental value. Displaying a sound that would become standard for the band, you get a feel for where they started, and how the sound of their early music …

This album is a fantastic work of musical art. There are some moments that clearly have weak spots. Some songs should have been on the album from my point of view because they are not consistent and high quality enough, but the main course, the central piece of the …

If you like Jazz, then this is a must buy. Rather than getting Billy Holiday or Nina Simone go for something a bit older. Fats Waller was one of the Jazz greats of the 20’s and 30’s and this double compilation CD shows exactly why. Don’t …

Oddly, I’m more of a fan of Randy Travis now than I ever was in his heyday. In part, I think that’s because I know how country music left him and others like him behind. The new herd treated the old guard unkindly for a while, and …

I have read several reviews of this album that state that this is the long-expected come-back album by Oasis. People make claims that, after releasing numerous second-rate and pointless albums Oasis have finally recorded an album which is as good as their 1995 hit album (What’s the story) Morning …

Rod Stewart isn’t the most handsome of guys, but he does have a unique voice that tends to draw me in at every turn. His voice does sound a bit scratchy but that is what makes his recordings so great. Rod Stewart has enjoyed great success as a singer …

Most know Zack de la Rocha as the vocalist of the well known political rap-metal band Rage Against The Machine. Only some know him as the former front-man of Inside Out, a lesser known hardcore punk band, as well. During their somewhat-short time as a band, Inside Out released …

I bought this Ibanez RG 550 BK two years ago,it was my second guitar with floating bridge (floy rose) system.I needed a backup guitar with floating bridge because my covers band plays songs from hard rock guitarrists like Van Halen,Pantera,Joe Satriani and all of these guitarists have this type …

Although I have never really been an ardent fan of Sarah McLachlan, I tend to listen to her music from time to time, especially in autumn, and when I’m feeling melancholic. In my opinion, she has released one brilliant album (”Fumbling Towards Ecstasy”), and several decent ones, including “Surfacing” …

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 …

Rank Strangers To Me is a cover performed by Bob Dylan which appears on his album Down In The Groove. Dylan comes in with his vocals right away singing in a pretty delicate manner along with a simple strumming acoustic guitar part. Dylan’s vocal tone isn’t all that bad …

Earlier this year, Nine Days fans finally got what they were much anticipating — new music from their favorite band. With their own record label, the band put 6 songs as part one of an album called “Slow Motion Life.” I have gotten the impression that the …

Personally, I have a great disdain for country music, but during the year 2004, many great country songs made their way onto the airwaves and ‘There Goes My Life’ is one of those wonderful tunes.
I find this song to be very sweet, tender, moving, and sad all at …

Crank that soulja boy by soulja boy is a song you can get up and dance to. I really like the dance moves to the song and how the song mentions superman. The music video is really funny and this guy has taste in my opinion. I also like …

Little Ghost is a song by The White Stripes which appears on their album Get Behind Me Satan. The track opens up with a simple rhythm which features some outside instrumentation and also has the vocals join in the track pretty much immediately as well. What I like immediately …

Where is the love is a suprisingly good song from Black Eyed Peas. In saying this I am not implying that I am suprised that Black Eyed Peas can produce a song of decent standard, I am sure they are a group of highly talented individuals, I am merely …

Tenth album from Def Leppard, it still proves that the rock group founded in 1977, was still able to deliver a quality album. When viewed from the track record, this group is subscribed to get a platinum album. Album, entitled Songs From The Sparkle Lounge contains 11 new tracks …

Overview - Live/Dead is the first live album put out by The Grateful Dead and it certainly allows fans and listeners to get a glimpse into what a live Dead show is like. I’m not sure about other people, but I know the first thing that I noticed when …

In 2006 this band emerged from seemingly nowhere, and I’m glad I found out about them because they are a good and interesting band to listen to, upon first hearing them I immediately thought “I’ve heard this before, another band cashing in on the likeness of Tool, another MJK …

Bleeding Love is definitely a song that I can’t quite figure out. I am not sure if she has lost her love and that is why her love is bleeding or if it is that she love him so much that it hurts and that is why she is …
