Tri-Polar is the third album by the australian pwer-trio Sick Puppies.
As always one of the things that stays up on this album are the bass lines, some not for it’s level or difficulty, but for it’s creativity and the way it fits the song, i guess that the best …

Different Names For The Same Thing is a song by Death Cab For Cutie which appears on their record Plans. The song opens up with a piano-led introduction which then gives way to the vocal performance which seems to have some effect on it which makes it seem slightly …

“Your and Your Hand” by Pink has to be one of the catchiest songs I have heard on the radio in the past few years. At first I thought it was Kelly Clarkson, but realized it was Pink. I should have figured Ms. Clarkson wouldn’t want to ruin …

I began listening to this amazing band quite some time ago (even though they haven’t been around for all that long) and I must say, as sadly often is the case with other bands, the sound of their music has NOT faded the tiniest bit. I can listen to …

Wake Up Dead is a song by Megadeth which appears on their album Peace Sells… But Whose Buying? The track opens up with an extremely aggressive drum rhythm before Mustaine’s guitar comes in along with his vocals which are more of a spoken word section which just sort of …

Come Together would have to be one of the most calming and relaxing Beatles songs which I’ve ever listened to. Driven by Lennon’s vocal delivery which just mixes right in perfectly with the music under him, Come Together is the opening track of Abbey Road and one of the …

I am a die hard metal fan, and so, like many die hard metal fans I love listening to the band Pantera, even though they have not been together for the longest while. Their albums from the early nineties remain my favourite too, and one of these albums is …

The Blueprint 2: The Gift and the Curse
Roc-A-Fella Records

Although it borrows heavily from Tupac Shakur’s song “Me and My Girlfriend”, “03′ Bonnie & Clyde” is a pretty entertaining remake. This is Jay-Z’s first single and music video from his seventh album …

When I hear Lindsay Lohan would release an album, I’m not sure about her capability on vocal in singing, but after I listen her songs, I can say that’s pretty much good. Confession of a broken heart is one of Lindsay Lohan’s song that I like.
Confession of broken a …

Butterfly is one of the greatest hits from the 90’s. A single coming from Mariah Carey included in her studio album, Mariah. I was first year in college when I heard it playing in the radio. The song sounds sad and serious. Hearing this song when you are alone …

Human Clay is Creed’s second CD. I bought this CD over three years ago and I still listen to it frequently. The music gradually shifts from calm, slow guitar and vocals to loud, yelling, hard rock- this makes the music more exciting than my other CDs which …

Lady Gaga is known for being one of the most innovative and provocative artists of this generation. She seems to have revolutionized the industry in a mere matter of months. It isn’t simply about how strange she seems to be in the way she dresses and acts. It is …

On some levels it is probably difficult to admit it, but, looking back at this album, and comparing it to the albums that Radiohead afterwards, this album indeed comes off rather badly. I personally think that this album is quite weak. And it is my mature opinion, which is …

Chocolate Girl is a song by Animal Collective which appears on their debut record Spirit They’ve Gone, Spirit They’ve Vanished. Similar to April And The Phantom, Chocolate Girl opens up with a fairly lighthearted tone before the vocals join in. Similar to my complaints on some of the other …

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 …

It has been years since Tool had released “Lateralus”, their most complex, tribal infused, conceptualized and mathematical album, and many were expecting their next release to completely blow its predecessor out of the water. I regard Lateralus as one of the Best albums of our generation, and one of …

Overview —“ Motorbreath, the third song to appear on Kill —˜Em All certainly does match up to the expectations which were set by following The Four Horsemen and unfortunately this song really doesn’t even match Hit The Lights. Motorbreath honestly just doesn’t strike me as that good of a …

The Fulltone OCD is an overdrive pedal in the same mold as a Boss Bluesdriver or an Ibanez Tubescreamer. Every fulltone pedal is made by hand, and therefore expensive, but the quality is always worth it.
The Fulltome OCD pedal is the best overdrive I’ve ever gotten out of a …

Church by T-pain is a song that plays towards the begging of the movie step up 2 where they have the dance off between Tyler and Andy. It is a very cool song for the dance they do. I like the song because it talks about how this …

Dreamend is a band I discovered quite recently. I had listened to them some before but never really got impressed. Once I listened to Sun in Aries I was completely astonished with what I heard. You can say it’s divided into two separate parts. The first one combines tender …

Dig A Pony is a song by The Beatles which appears on their final studio record, Let It Be. Dig A Pony starts off with sort of an awkward beginning before getting into the main riff of the song which isn’t bad at all. Lennon soon comes in with …

Insane Clown Posse are on of my current favorite bands, and one of the only bands I like that are �new age� in their sound, that being Horrorcore, a sub-genre of Hip-Hop. They have memorable songs left, right and center and are simply indescribable, they jump genre with most …

The right kind of music soundtrack is crucial for a particular type of movie and for that, Defiance by James Newton Howard works for me. I listened to the songs inside and I certainly think it matched the concept of the movie, Defiance. On some circumstances, even if …
