Josef K were a short-lived four-piece post-punk band. The paranoia and brittleness implicit in their namesake, the protagonist in Frank Kafka’s “The Trial” was echoed by their sound. They played spare, taut, danceable discount funk. For those looking for comparison, this can be likened to Fear of Music era …

I am so tired of Top 40 Radio stations. I hate the music they constantly play. It is hardly ever good. It’s unimaginative drivel with stupid lyrics that grate on my nerves. I listen to it every once in awhile to see if something good comes out, but no. …

Like millions of other people, I watched the Hope for Haiti Now telethon hosted and organized by George Clooney last Friday, and unlike so many other worthy causes, the music lineup in this show blew me away. Not only was it an international lineup of music superstars singing for …

Literally shocking the Death Metal scene, in 2005 Opeth signed to American Metal label Roadrunner and released “Ghost Reveries”, a masterpiece that transcends all of their previous albums.
Many were reluctant about Opeth leaving European label Koch and signing to an American “mainstream” label, stating that the band had sold …

Lenny Kravitz again to release the album in 2008. Kravitz still survive with the kind of rhythm from previous albums. However, that looks great, this musician is still making music genre that he played, still comfortable to hear. Not too different from the album It Is Time For A …

This is probably the most upbeat, pop-rock, hippie song I have ever heard and enjoyed. There’s not many that could make the trumpet seem like it belonged. I always thought it was a classic instrument that should strictly be used in belletristic composition, not in contemporary pop. “50 Ways …

“Force Fed Broken Glass” is quite possibly my favorite Cannibal Corpse song off their 1994 album “The Bleeding”. This happens to be the 9th track on the album which is the second to last song. It’s kind of weird that they put such a good song towards the end …

I was totally amazed by the music on this album. I was amazed and I was amused. I was surprised that this album was going to be so good. And maybe I should not have been surprised because I should’ve expected and anticipated and actually demanded this album to …

Daily Routine is a song by Animal Collective and the fifth track on their record Merriweather Post Pavilion. Opening up with an introduction that starts off gradual and then builds incredibly abruptly, the vocals violently enter the track with a melody which surprisingly doesn’t flow very well at all …

This is the band’s second album released in 96 produced by Ross Robinson and recorded in Malibu California. This album is way darker then the last, with seemingly more time and thought put into the making of this album. Mr. Rogers is about Jon Davis’s drug induced obsession with …

Just Like Heaven is a song by The Cure that I have always liked. This song came out on the wave of the new, alternative rock and the end of the new wave genre. Just Like Heaven’s sound is soft contains a lot of blended synthesizers, but it also …

Despite the fact that her genre is kinda local to the US …

I saw the movie Never Say Never, I was a big Justin fan in the summer and it kind of wore off. I did not notice this song in the movie that much, but when he came out with this song on the album I was absolutly blow away. …

This is just another one of Carrie Underwood’s amazing songs. By far, she is the best American Idol there ever was and the most successful. This song didn’t get very big on the radio but got big in my heart. I can’t quite relate to the subject of the …

I am not a hug fan of the Pussycat Dolls, but I really like this song. And I think that what they are singing about in this song happens to a lot of couples at some point in their relationships. But sometimes, it gets a little out of hand …

Dreams from The Corrs is awesome. The Corrs is at their most peak/popular during the late 1999s or early 2000s, I’m not so sure. In between those times, I was so heavily into buying their CD singles and albums.
Their songs are very Irish-influenced since they hail …
