In 1982 and 1983, Fang released their first two LPs, “Landshark” and “Where The Wild Things Are”, a pair of albums that are about as good and solid as it gets in second wave punk. In 1997, they were paired together and re-released in one package, providing over 40 …

Don’t buy this CD; it is really tasteless. Not to mention I am not really a big fan of this artiste anyway. But he is really talented I have to claim that. For this particular album, the songs are not that nice and I couldn’t relate to …

The song Estranged by Guns n Roses off Use Your illusion 2, is an epic song that features many instrumental parts and a few epic solos by slash which were all recorded with his les paul gold top on the treble pickup. Dizzy Reed also plays an essential role …

After I heard the first Cam’ron cd title “Confessions Of Fire” I decided to listen to the next Cam’ron cd which was titled “S.D.E.” because I believed it would be at least as good as his first cd. However, I was very dissapointed when I got this cd, he …

Recently I downloaded Ginuwine’s new CD, A Man’s Thoughts; he has made a great comeback. But one of my favorite songs on the CD is Even When I’m Mad; it talks about something we all can relate to. It talks about being in a relationship & wanting to …

Merriweather Post Pavilion is an album released by Animal Collective in 2009. Comprised of eleven songs, Merriweather Post Pavilion is posed with the tough task of following Strawberry Jam, Feels, and Sung Tongs which are the three strongest Animal Collective records in my opinion. Overall, I would say that …

Now I have never been known to be a proper fan of rock music, but recently I came across a Dire Straits album, titled —˜Brothers In Arms’, that somehow enticed me to pop it in and give it a listen, purely because of the profound title and I was …

YES are another one of those bands that help to prove that the seventies was the creative peak of music as we know it. I’m not one of those people that thinks new music is bad, i just know that the expressionism in music is nowhere near today like …

Sara Evans is a country singer who has had a fair amount of success. She’s slipped away a bit after some unpleasantness from her last marriage. She’s still around, but I don’t hear about her near as much as I was prior to the marriage collapsing. …

I really loved the Barry Manilow: Singin’ with the Big Bands CD. It was near perfection in my opinion. I love Manilow, and I love big band, even though I don’t listen to it all that much; still, I do enjoy it greatly. Put the two …

Lonesome Day Blues is a song by Bob Dylan which appears on his album Love And Theft. As you can tell from the title, the track has a very blues-rock feel but I actually think that this works pretty well with Dylan on this song. Dylan’s vocal melody works …

Overview - Barrett, the second solo record of Syd Barrett, is more stripped down songwriting - basically the exact opposite of his work in Pink Floyd. While in Pink Floyd Barrett worked a lot with very frantic and chaotic psychedelic music, but this album really isn’t like that at …

Look out for this name: Justin Bieber. He’s around 14, I think and this kid will really go far. In fact, he has experience singing and rumors have it that he has or is going to have a singing album coming up soon. I first saw him …

The Rolling Stones are old. Some people say they were far too old to be playing at the Super Bowl a few years back. I say leave them alone. They have earned the right to age, they have put in their time as young people, but their music lives …

I know many people have not heard of McKenzie, well this girl has an incredible future ahead of her. She is a fourteen year old Aussie singer, with a voice that could move moutains. She has not gotten an offical record label to sign her yet but she has …

While the artist might not have had many hits, this one certainly proves to be the most endearing of her discography. It’s a staple of any good 80s soundtrack and still has a punchy enough tune to get the toes tapping now.
For an eighties track, it’s all there. …

B.Y.O.B. the opening track of System Of A Down’s double record Mezmerize/Hypnotize is what I would consider to be among their most aggressive work throughout the past few records. The song opens up with a guitar riff by Malakian which is quite aggressive and quick before giving way to …

Before Franz Ferdinand’s debut self-titled album released in 2004, Scotland has only Rod Stewart, Shirley Manson and Annie Lennox, who each of them has something different than just singing. Image which was built by Alex Kapranos, Bob Hardy, Nick McCarthy and Paul Thomson, was like white boy disco, a …

I never thought that In Flames would ever change up some of their style(i.e the cheesy guitar riffs and the drums), and they did just that. Also, with the added keyboardist, added some atmosphere to their music, which is nice.
THEY ADDED A GROOVE! I have always wanted In Flames …

Blowin’ In The Wind, one of Bob Dylan’s most famous and ionic songs throughout his extremely lengthy career proves to certainly meet it’s reputation as the track itself is just great. As with most early Bob Dylan, or rather most Bob Dylan for that matter, the track isn’t driven …

Rihanna is one of my favorite recording artists. Despite all the drama with Chris Brown being abusive towards her, she has remained a strong female figure that I can see inspiring a younger generation of little girls. She is a talented live singer who does not rely too heavily …

Elvis Presley’s album Almost In Love is just another example of the King of Rock at his finest. If you’re anything like me, you appreciate all great music. And there’s none so great as Elvis.
Almost In Love features ten great tracks from this legend. Released in 1970, It contains …

One genre of music that I feel is hugely underrated and underdeveloped is jazz/rock. It seems that rarely will I find a good jazz/rock combination band, despite the fact that the two styles of music compliment each other so well. The Reign of Kindo is a band that stands …

Hurt is a song by Nine Inch Nails which is the final track on their concept album, The Downward Spiral. Something to note about this song was that it was covered by Johnny Cash before the time of his death, but I’ll be focusing on the version by Nine …
