“Slaves of Pain” is the sixth song on the thrash masterpiece “Beneath the Remains” by Sepultura. In my personal and humble opinion, this is the best song on the entire album. This song alone showcases almost everything Sepultura has to offer at that point and time in their career. …

The Youth is the third track on MGMT’s second album, Oracular Spectacular. MGMT has frequently been called a neo-psychedelic band and I think that this track really demonstrates that, particularly the lyrics of the song. Listening to the first lyrics of the song, a listener should immediately get a …

The booklet that …

The X V-Amp is a floor-based effects pedal from Behringer. Like most products from Behringer, it’s cheap. I’ve been a guitarist for at least 15 years and I have this pedal for almost 2 years now. I actually use it for gigs. My main effects …

Overview —“ Humanity: Hour I, the sixteenth album and latest by The Scorpions is a very dark toned album yet definitely an album that I really enjoy. In fact I remember that when this record first came out and I heard it, I was extremely impressed and I really …

This is definitely my taste of music. Rap, hip-hop kind, and was loaned to me by my best friend, Lisa. She really is a great clubber type, and she recommended me to this CD, saying that I will certainly dance to it, and will sort of hum …

When Two Worlds Collide is a song by Iron Maiden which appears on their album Virtual XI. The song opens up with a somewhat ominous sounding part which is driven by this interesting clean guitar part before Bayley comes in with the vocals of the track. I’ll be honest …

Tailgunner is a song by Iron Maiden which appears on their album No Prayer For The Dying. Tailgunner is the opening track of the record and tries to open the record in a pretty energetic fashion. The opening guitar part of this song builds up with a bass line …

Ally McBeal was one of TV’s quirkiest comedies ever, only it wasn’t a comedy, it was a drama. Well, it was a comedy. Maybe dramedy describes it best. There was a lot of discussion about this at the time it aired in the mid-90’s, and …

Reba McEntire returns with “Love Somebody,” her first collection in five years. McEntire co-created the collection with a few accomplices, including Tony Brown, James Stroud, and Doug Sisemore. She intelligently encompassed herself with some of Nashville’s most sizzling musicians —” and, all the more imperatively, a portion of the …

I was 16 (now I’m 21) when I started listening to The Cranberries. They were the ones who made me like music in general, and they’re the ones I’ll probably always hold in my heart. And that is why I’m really biased when it comes to this particular band, …

Bad Kids is a song by Black Lips which I initially heard on the soundtrack to the film 500 Days Of Summer. I will admit that I’m not that familiar with this band so my review will really focus on this song as a whole rather than being a …

Eazy E was a legend in the rap game. He is one of the best rappers to ever touch a mic. His album Eternal E shows just how great of a rapper he was. He had a hardcore mindset and was always trying to make more money. He is also …

Backstreet Boys was a really successful musical group during the mid 90’s. The came to the scene at the absolutely right time, when boy bands were really popular. Previously, the contemporary boy bands that were out there were mainly European. When Backstreet Boys came to the scene, they have …

It’s been a while, but Linkin Park, arguably the most popular rock/rap crossover group is back with a new record. It’s just been released today and I’ve got quite a bit to say about this one so let’s get into it. It seems almost necessary to address the whole …

I have been a huge fan on Troye Sivan ever since he released his debut single “The Fault in Our Stars” a few years back. His voice is eternally soothing, he’s not in for the great vocals you’ll find in Ed Sheeran or Bruno Mars songs but there’s definitely …

George Strait is one of the top country music singers in it’s history. His songs have always had the tendency to fly high in the charts and people across the United States love his music. I am one of his fans and there are very good reasons why. There …

The Trans-Siberian Orchestra has been becoming increasingly popular over the years, especially during the holiday season. I recently purchased The Lost Christmas Eve album, which, obviously is a Christmas album. It is hands down the best Christmas CD I have ever heard in my life. It …

Imagine Frank Sinatra being reborn as a college boy in the 21st century, and you will have a fair picture of what singer Michael Buble is all about. I think he has a French last name, although he was born in Burnaby, Canada instead of the Quebecois region …

One of my favourite soul singers from the nineteen nineties was the singer Peabo Bryson. Although I am not usually a fan of soul music, some of his hits are among the few soul songs I actually like, and most of them were released in the period of the …

I am not usually a fan of bands which ’scream’ in a sense, but Cradle of Filth shined a new light on the subject of ‘Black Metal’ for me and actually are responsible for bringing me in depth and in detail as a fan of the Black Metal Genre. …

Talking about Britney Spears, well she has a pretty face but I don’t like her voice. She may be famous because she is good at dancing but I would rather listen to Mandy Moore who is also a contempory young singer. Mandy can also do …

The rock band “3 Doors Down” was one of the most famous bands back in the early and mid 2000s when I was much younger. At the time when they were popular, I liked several of their songs but I didn’t consider myself as much of a fan. Now that …

It’s a weird title, but The Only Other Broadway CD You’ll Ever Need is really the name of this CD, which features a variety of Broadway standout numbers from a slew of performers.
The liner jacket covers each song, the play it’s from, and the performers, so it gives the …

There are numerous reasons to single this album as the best one in the extensive catalogue of KMFDM. At least I am sure that it is impossible not to include it into their top three best albums. The official title of this album consists of five symbols. But most …

As the front man of the popular Florida band Tabitha’s Secret and later of the more globally known Matchbox 20, Thomas performed very well. However, I feel that his most profound songwriting and performing ventures have been as a solo recording artist.
‘Smooth’ is a song with a slightly Spanish …

The Continuing Adventures Of Feeling Down And Out is a song by Sledding With Tigers and is the second song to appear on their second release, The Hill Sheep. Just as the first song on this album did, The Continuing Adventures Of Feeling Down And Out actually also opens …

This is a very upbeat song that conveys the power of a woman and her dignity. In the song, the woman is saying that she will no longer wait for her man to make up his mind as to whether he wants to stay with her or not. She …

I love the title of this album, The Alternative to Love by Brendan Benson pretty much. The album has a kind of oldies-sound or rather indie-sounding and very infectious. I love tracks like Alternative to Love, Feel Like Myself, Between Us and many more. Imagine an Oasis …

In my top five of Patrick Swayze films is City of Joy, the story of a suicidal young doctor (okay, they edited the suicidal part out of the released film, but that’s who he was) who travels to India and ends up being rejuvenated. It’s a marvelous film …

While this release is being marketed as an electric-blues album, the actual truth is that it’s a bit of a mixture. Across the album Damon Fowler flirts with a few different kinds of blues like swamp blues, delta blues and electric blues, but also adds some honky-tonk country elements …

I was digging through some of my CDs the other day, looking for something different to listen to in the car (we don’t have decent radio stations here). I ended up coming across my Joe Diffie: Third Rock from the Sun album and ended up listening to that.
I have …

Neighborhood Bully, a track by Bob Dylan for his record Infidels, is actually one of the very few songs that I somewhat enjoy from that album, although this isn’t to say that this means the song is all that good as it really isn’t to be completely honest. In …

I’ll start by saying there are relatively few contemporary artists, emerging in the past few years, that I’ve taken much interest in. By and large, I’m much more inclined to listen to older records and artists than newer ones-which may be odd, since I’m only 25 and the majority …

The Dixi Chicks sing the song “Travelin Soldier”. It is a song about a young man who joins the army at 18 and a girl who thinks she is in love with him. Her friends keep telling her that she is to young for the soldier, but she refuses …

Does anyone remember when Lil Kim had all her real parts? The Lil Kim that I used to listen to had some nasty lyrics that were quite catchy. The memories I have of Lil Kim when she was with Junior Mafia and Biggie, was the female rapper …

Clumsy by fergie on her album the dutchess came out in two thousand and six. This song is about how a girl falls in love and is clumsy about it. I like the sound effects they use in this song. This song is a good song for any …

“Play Hard” is a song by David Guetta on his album “Nothing but the Beat 2.0″. The album is fairly new being released less than 2 months ago and already there is a billion different remixes of it because artists these days milk the general public of everything they …

A very techno but soothing song. The vocals aren’t very focused on in here, instead it is more blended into the instrumentals, and it makes the mind serene. This is one of the few songs I approve of the use of auto-tuning, because of how capable of bringing us …

I am such a huge fan of country music. I like the fact that it is so natural and free-flowing. Both the lyrics and the music are playful and I can easily relate to them.
A friend of mine first introduced Lady Antebellum to me with their hit single …

In the early 2000s when I had just entered high school I had just begun to discover rock music. A lot of the music that I had begun to listen then was a lot softer than a lot of the music that I tend to listen to now and …
