My home’s in Alabama
The song ‘My home’s in Alabama’ is by the group Alabama. It is a good song that makes you think of home where ever that may be. For me it reminds me of what my mom used to say when I was a kid and the fact that we …
Drag-on : Opposite Of H2o cd
If you do not know who Drag-on is, he is a former Ruff Ryders artist who made several tracks with musical great DMX including �Ruff Ryders Anthem Remix� and �No Love For Me� which created a huge buzz for his first solo record titled �The Opposite of H2o�. …
Apocalyptica - Apocalyptica Plays Metallica By Four Cellos
Overview —“ Apocalyptica a Finnish rock band released their debut album which was filled with nothing Metallica covers, but the twist is, all of these covers are played on cellos. I mean the idea of a group releasing an album of Metallica covers doesn’t sound special or unique at …
The Tallest Man On Earth - Shallow Grave (Song)
Shallow Grave is a song by The Tallest Man On Earth which appears on his record Shallow Graves. The track opens up with an intricate pattern which actually reminds me of a sound that Mumford And Sons would come up with. The vocals come in quickly and I think …
Green Day - When I Come Around (Music Video)
Overview —“ When I Come Around, the second music video released by Green Day also comes off of their third album Dookie. The song itself isn’t too bad, it’s not really one of my favorites off of Dookie but I do think it’s a good song, but I’ll admit …
Sugar by Demure
I came across this song on MySpace and was quite drawn to the singer. She has a tone that kind of reminded me of Amy Winehouse, but without all the gravel in her voice. The song’s lyrics kind of confused me at first. But then …
Britney Spears song Mannequin
For starters, I’m not a fan of pop music. But I am a dancer. So of course I’m inclined to dance to pop music every once in awhile. I picked up Britney Spear’s album “Circus” and the best song on there is clearly “Mannequin.” It’s …
Nine Inch Nails - With Teeth (Song)
With Teeth is the title track of an album by Nine Inch Nails. With Teeth opens up with some brief noise before leading to a drum rhythm which sound somewhat awkward and then a synthesizer being played over this and finally a distorted guitar playing a bit of a …
Metallica - Trapped Under Ice (Song)
Contrasting with the preceding track, Fade To Black, Trapped Under Ice is an extremely aggressive Metallica track which I’m sure is pleasing to those listeners who criticized Fade To Black. The lyrics to Trapped Under Ice deal with basically a helpless, and quite dangerous, …
Dreams from The Corrs
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 …
Pink Floyd - Corporal Clegg (Song)
Corporal Clegg is a track by Pink Floyd which appears on their second record, A Saucerful Of Secrets. Something interesting about the first two albums by Pink Floyd was that the first album, The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn, was primarily filled with the music of Syd Barrett …
The Gorillaz - Rhinestone Eyes (Song)
Rhinestone Eyes is a song by The Gorillaz which appears on their album Plastic Beach. The track opens up with an electronic intro which has an interesting rhythm to say the least. The vocals soon come into the track and are delivered in a tone that sounds almost lethargic …
The Spice Girls
The Spice Girls were one of my favorite popular music groups when I was younger. In fact, even though my best friend now seems to feel embarrassed about it, I can remember that we had our own mini Spice Girls group when we were eight and nine years old. …
His Silent Film - Lower Definition
Rock music seems to have sprouted an absolute ton of different genres over the years, and one of these more current genres is the mixing of a metal like sound with a younger, almost pop sounding singer. Most of the time, it creates music that seems out of place …
The Chainsmokers - Roses (feat. ROZES)
To be honest, I never heard any The Chainsmokers before this. But I think this song has gained enough momentum ever since my friend let me listen to it more than 3 months ago.
Songs always take time to grow, but for this case, I instantly liked it upon first …
Fall (Single) Clay Walker
I came across this song while I was doing some music hunting on youtube. I had never heard of Clay Walker before this song, but now I cannot get enough of him and his music. This song is one of my favorite songs at moment. It is an absolutely …
Valveking 212 tube combo amp
Over the Holidays, one of my presents I received from my mom is the Valveking 212 tube combo amp. I was so excited to see what this amp had to offer, when I plugged it in along with my Ibanez RG 770DX guitar and I checked out the distortion …
Z-Man Dope or Dog Food CD
IF Z-Man is part of the Hieroglyphics extended family, then he is one the outer, outer branches of the family tree. He actually is part of the Hiero crew, but not an immediate member, but signed to their label, Hiero Imperium. Z-Man’s lyrics are in a league of …
Deering Goodtime Banjo
An excellent choice for any beginner banjo player . The low profile neck satin finish and rock maple rim make this banjo a keeper . I began on a cheap Asian banjo , that offered a very hollow sound similar to playing in a a cave , for …

CD Libertad by Velvet Revolver
I feel in love with the CD “Libertad” by Velvet Revolver the moment I stuck it in the CD player. I figured I would like it since I loved Slash and Duff from their Guns N Roses days. The songs on this cd put me in a …
“White House” by Taylor Swift
“White Horse”, by Taylor Swiftis by far one of the best songs she has ever written. I didn’t even know that she wrote her own songs until just recently! She is so young and talented and this just really came as a surprise to me. Most artists have other …
Good News for People Who Love Bad News, 2004 Album by Modest Mouse
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 …
Hush Hush Music Video by The Pussycat Dolls
The main reason why I am intrigued by The Pussycat Dolls is because they manage to sing relatively well by doing exhaustingly well choreographed dance moves. They are always in sync. They have great sex appeal. They are a very talented group of performers that are entertaining in concert …
The Jimi Hendrix Experience - You Got Me Floatin’
You Got Me Floatin’ is a track by The Jimi Hendrix Experience which appears on Axis: Bold As Love. The track starts off with some backwards guitar effects to give a psychedelic tone to the song, but overall I’d say that this is more of just a rock driven …
Metallica - The God That Failed (Song)
The God That Failed is actually a song that I didn’t have a great memory of, probably because I never really listened to this song very much, but after listening to it again, it isn’t too bad of a song. The thing about The Black Album is that none …
Madonna: True Blue
80s music had a distinctive sound to it, and no one was more pivotal in the 80’s then Madonna. She first sprang into the spotlight in the early 80s (83 I believe, with her first album) and by mid-80s was a household name. She has produced many albums, but …
Mr. Pitiful by Matt Costa song
Mr. Pitiful by Matt Costa is a great song that I happened to stumble upon while shopping at American Eagle Outfitters. I was looking around in the store at a blue shirt that I was about to buy when a friend of mine wanted to try on some …
UFO-Strangers in the Night (album)
I don’t know much about the classic hard rock band UFO but I heard they had Michael Shenker who happens to be the brother of Rudolph Shenker of the Scorpions and they both are amazing guitarists with a very similar style in the way they play. On itunes …
Metallica - Dyers Eve (Song)
Dyers Eve has to be one of Metallica’s most aggressive and angry songs, not just on Justice but on any of their nine records. For those of you who heard Master Of Puppets, if for some reason then you haven’t then go listen to it now, you’ll recognize that …
Radiohead - Where I End And You Begin (Song)
Where I End And You Begin (The Sky Is Falling In.) is a song by Radiohead which appears on their record Hail To The Thief. The song opens up with light synthesizers creating an empty atmosphere before a very distinct bass rhythm comes in and establishes a firm rhythm …
Home by the band Daughtry
I am really touch by the song entitled ‘Home’ by the band Daughtry. I only heard it from Chris Daughtry’s performance in American Idol.
Honestly, I am touched by the song. I was once in a strange country and I really feel homesick. It is totally difficult being alone and …
Relapse Eminem’s album
I recently got Eminem’s brand new music album, Relapse. I have been a die hard fan of Eminem’s music (And his straight-forward approach towards celebrities). The album has put up a great approach towards music, as this album incorporates a story within itself. Their are great CD covers, and …
Little Voice by Sara Bareilles
I find this debut album title, Little Voice by Sara Bareilles not that bad. I think young singers nowadays are awesome and that they have a very good quality-like voice. She sounds very nice and lithe-like, and almost like a soothing gentle kind of music and believe it …
Sledding With Tigers - Sweater Weather (Song)
Sweater Weather is a song by Sledding With Tigers and the second song on their 2011 split release with Kids. Opening up with a tone that’s similar to the preceding track, Sweater Weather starts out with a sound that’s almost country in nature. The vocals enter the …
In the end by Likin park
In the end by Likin park is a song that has an awesome beat to it and the words are a little bit freaky. I like the way the song starts out personally but the rest of the song is good too. In the begging of the song …

Don’t take the girl by Tim McGraw is about a boy not wanting his dad taking the girl but as he gets older he falls in love with this little girl he didn’t want to go fishing with him when he was younger. He then wants the girl to …
Lil Baby - The Bigger Picture
The Bigger Picture - When Western Trap Is No More Fun
I have had an extremely pessimistic attitude towards trap music for a long time. The position on this is clear: this genre does not have a big future, it is difficult to develop, and due to the huge number …
Pink Floyd - San Tropez (Song)
San Tropez is a track by Pink Floyd which appears on their album Meddle. To be honest, when I listen to this track I don’t exactly get the feel of a typical Pink Floyd song. Although Roger Waters’ voice is quite distinct and it’s clear that it’s him, his …
Bob Dylan - Talking World War III Blues (Song)
Talking World War III Blues is a song by Bob Dylan which appears on his album The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan. The track starts off with an acoustic guitar riff which has a nice rhythm that lends itself well to a harmonica bit which soon comes over it before Dylan …
(Album) - Tommy - The Who
One of my favorite albums, which I discovered by accident while watching the film Almost Famous, where one of the parts of the movie the lead character is to recommend the album and tell him that if he listens to Tommy in the light of the candles he will …
Sean Paul - Pepperpot
Sean Paul is a famous reggae dancehall musical artist that hails from the island of Jamaica. He has had many hits in the past but I am here to give a review of latest hit.

Reflections of Nature Dreamstorm CD
I had been searching for a suitable CD of music to do meditation with, and came across the Reflections of Nature Series at a local store, and was drawn to the Dreamstorm CD after hearing parts of it play. I decided to purchase it for $9.99CDN partially due to …
Subliminal-just when you thought it was over
Subliminal-just when you thought it was over
Subliminal’s new/ not so new album is something that was destined to get mixed reviews. On one hand, he continues his legacy of excellence and presents us with well crafted and executed songs. On the other hand, it is clear that …
Bob Dylan - Bringing It All Back Home
Overview - Bringing It All Back Home, Bob Dylan’s fifth effort, is a record that is split up into two unique sides: one electric, one acoustic. This concept is a new idea by Dylan and this is the first record where he’s actually backed by a band rather than …
Coldplay A Rush of Blood to the Head Album
This is one of my favorite Coldplay albums.. They’ve yet again, created nothing but pure musical brilliance. Chris Martin (The lead singer) has a heart for music. And it’s absolutely nothing like the shallow, mainstream trash you’ll hear on the radio. One of my favorite tracks is ‘Amsterdam.’ …
Boney M Gold
Long before the fiasco of Milli Vanilli, producer Frank Farian gathered Liz Mitchell, Marcia Barrett, Maizie Williams and Bobby Farrell together to form Boney M. Boney M was one of the most prominent Euro Disco bands of the 1970’s and 1980’s, particularly in Britain. While Mitchell and Barrett did …
Between The Buried and Me: The Parallax Part 2: Future Sequence
Between the Buried and Me (BTBAM) is a progressive metalcore band. Yeah that’s right, that —˜shouty angry’ music your dad really hates, but with more spice and flavour. To someone not used to this sort of music I can see it being a challenge to listen to, with dissonance, …
