Power Ballads CD
I love listening to music and my favorite kind is hair bands from the 1980’s. To me this the music from the ’80’s says something different than what artist are trying to say now. Music from the ’80’s has depth and style and every song sounds different, …

Metallica And Lou Reed - Lulu (Album)
Lulu is a collaboration between Metallica and Lou Reed. An odd collaboration to say the least, the lyrics to Lulu are based on a play, but the track listing oddly doesn’t follow the story in any chronological order which makes me feel as if this isn’t a concept album. …
So Solid Crew - Broken Silence - Single
This is a track that takes me back to my last year at University, this was when it was released, 2003 I think. I don’t re-call many sharing my opinion as it was So Solid Crew.

Hype Magazine
I must admit, the one thing that drew me to buying this magazine in the beginning, was the notion of getting a —˜free’ cover Compact Disc at a price equivalent to just under one US Dollar, at the time (around 2006).

Happenings by Crosby and Nash
Happenings, the new album by Crosby and Nash feels familiar, but not repetitive. It feels like a telephone call from an old friend rather than a pre-recorded telephone marketing call during dinner.
Like so much of the Baby Boomer generation, Crosby and Nash have made their peace with the problem …

Metallica’s debut 1983 album Kill Em All was going to be titled “Metal up your ass” but the record company made them change it before it’s release. This could be Metallica’s most impressive album, technically. The parts are faster then most anything by Metallica, the solos are huge, and …
