Fall Be Kind is an EP released by Animal Collective to follow their previous EP release of Water Curses. I will say right now that I think Fall Be Kind is overall a very strong EP, but it does have one fairly large flaw to it which is that …

I’m almost always undecided about whether I like Cascada, the person who sings the song “Evacuate the Dancefloor”. She tends to remake songs and turn them into something I just can’t listen to. She has done that with a few slow country songs and she doesn’t understand that some …

Lil Wayne —“ The Dedication 3

‘Whiskey …

This is Marilyn Manson’s 2nd full length album, released in 1996 on Interscope Records. The album as you can imagine raised much controversy, the band received death threats, people protested the band, the videos still received airplay on tv, and the songs did great on the radio. Not many …

Marty Sampson has a very husky voice in singing this song All I Need Is You. I really like the song because of the wonderful message and the composition of it was also amazing.
He also leads the guitar as he sings although you can obviously hear from Marty’s voice …

MGMT is a band that I’ve just started to listen to, and the first song which really got me hooked on them would have to be Electric Feel. Coming from their first record, Oracular Spectacular, Electric Feel is certainly a track to be an accurate representation of that album …

Monstrously succesful, an absolute legend, constantly on the charts, Pink Floyd’s undisputed masterpiece. These could be the adjectives with which this record could be described with.

Overview - The Madcap Laughs, Syd Barret’s first solo record after departing Pink Floyd, is an album that sounds absolutely nothing like the work Barrett did with Pink Floyd, it’s surprising that it’s even the same man to be honest. Not only is Barrett’s songwriting a lot simpler and …

Graduation overall sounds very laid back. It’s a bit more relaxed, than what you might be used to but it’s defiantly an album that you are going to want to buy if you love Kanye.
This is a solid and enjoyable collection. There are no skits or fillers that make …

You could not classify Novembre’s “Materia” as metal, nor heavy metal. Though Novembre have a background that is colored in Metal, on “Materia” they embrace their softer side while including traces of their metal history.
Novembre could somewhat be classified as similar to bands like Opeth, Katatonia, and even at …

Well, I think that this album is good, but not as good as other BRMC albums, like their first record, “Take Them On, On Your Own”, and, of course, “Howl”, the latter, from my point of view, being their very best album.
