My Chemical Romance - To The End (Song)
To The End is a song by My Chemical Romance which appears on their album Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge. Opening up with a fairly dissonant sounding guitar riff and the vocal melody right away, I will admit that Gerard Way does a good job of giving the track …

Weezer - Tired Of Sex (Song)

MGMT - Money To Burn (Song)
Money To Burn is the third track on MGMT’s debut record, Climbing To New Lows. What I mentioned about the previous track, We Care, is that the song features frequently changing dynamics from a loud intro, to a quiet verse, to a building pre-chorus, to a loud chorus. However, …
Justin Timberlake’s new style of music
Personaly I don’t really like his new music style. I have preferred his old album and his first debut album on his own. Justified was more towards when he was with Britney Spears and the break up.

Disintegration, 1989 Album by The Cure

A rock and roll classic! One of the best LP’s of the 1970’s.

1973 was too early for the world …
First Act Electric Guitar (ME300)

One Direction - Perfect (Song )
Let’s all be real, only teens and fangirls went crazy for One Direction. In reality, nobody takes their music seriously.
