I have known about this song for a while now, since it came out a few years ago. But I had no idea that it was by Miranda Lambert. The only time I had ever heard of her is when she won the award for best female video at …

Supermassive Black Hole is a track by Muse which appears on their album Black Holes And Revelations. I’m sure that many more people know this song now than when it first came out due to how it’s now featured on the soundtrack for one of the Twilight films, but …

40 Oz. To Freedom is the debut album released by Sublime. Comprised of twenty-two songs, Sublime does a good job of covering quite a lot of musical ground and I’m sure there is at least a couple tracks on here that every listener could enjoy. From their more classic …

Right Back is a song by Sublime and is the fourteenth song on their debut album, 40 Oz. To Freedom. Opening up with a pretty standard reggae rhythm, Right Back unfortunately seems to lose the unique sound that I thought Sublime achieved with the previous song on the record, …

Overview —“ Insomniac, Green Day’s fourth effort, continues with the sound that they developed on Dookie as they try to become better and better with songwriting. If I had to give a general pattern for this album, I’d say it gets progressively better as it goes along with some …

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 …

If you’re a beginner guitarist trying to switch from acoustic to electric, I’m sure you’re searched and asked for many guitars that will suit you.
I have been playing guitar for some months now, and I’ve recently purchased a Squier Bullet Stratocaster electric guitar. This is one of the most …

When The Trickster Starts A-Poking (Bordello Kind Of Guy) is a song by Gogol Bordello which appears as the first track on their album Multi Kontra Culti Vs. Irony. The song opens up with a pretty frantic accordion introduction which certainly would give a listener a feel for Gogol …

A Song For All Seasons is a song by Jefferson Airplane which appears on their 1969 release, Volunteers. The track opens up with a piano bit and right away you certainly get sort of a sense of country rock rather than the traditional psychedelic rock of Jefferson Airplane. At …

A Great instrumental song by the german hard rock band The Scorpions is the track Coast To Coast off of the album Lovedrive. I really like this instrumental, I even got to see it live and it is the one track where a third guitar is played by the …

Even though the band “The Ramones” became popular in the seventies and I mostly listen to a lot of newer bands, they have always been and still remain one of my faovurite punk rock bands. At first I thought that they were actually an English band since that is …

I bought Aenima after i had loved Tool’s next album (Lateralus). I found that Aenima is just as good. When Aenima was released Tool was just a promising name in the hard rock genre, this album enstablished the band not only as a great name worldwide, blessed by sales …

Everything’s Explodin’ is a song by The Flaming Lips and the opening track of their second release, Oh My Gawd. Opening up with a heavy guitar riff, the percussion violently enters the mix as the song begins to establish its main rhythm. To be honest, I was not personally …

For years, Nick Lachey has been trying to emerge from the shadows from either other boy bands such as NSYNC or Backstreet Boys or his own (now ex) wife, Jessica Simpson. In 2003, Nick released his first attempt at a solo career which to this day has only sold …

“No Need To Argue” was a natural evolution from their previous album. The Cranberries recreated exactly what they’ve achieved on “Everybody ” except they did it on a different scale. Stronger, angrier, longer, the album has that self-confidence “Everybody ” lacked. Supposedly this mixture was the one which rocketed …

Whoever had the idea for the Take Thats music video for Flood, stumbled on a great concept for me. Some people might look at this and wonder why on earth someone has put Take That in a rowing boat but that’s because they have not actually taken any note …

Hot Love Drama is a song by MGMT which appears on their debut record, Climbing To New Lows. If you read my review on MGMT’s previous track, Money To Burn, then you’ll have seen that my main complaint against that track was that it felt like it lacked energy, …

Call me when your’er sober by Evanescence is a very good song. I really don’t care for many songs by Evanescence but this one is an exception. It’s one of the few I like by them. This song has an awesome mysterious kind of beat to it which I …

This record is fabulous. When people talk about the Cure and their best albums people usually mention such albums as Seventeen Seconds, the 1982 album called Pornography, the 1989 Disintegration. All of these three albums are kind of pompous, grand. This album, the 1985 The Head on the Door …

After the monstrously successful “Dark Side of The Moon” Pink Floyd ultimately reached their goal of becoming rich and famous, from cozy stages they’ve reached to play in stadiums, their name being known everywhere and by everyone. And the pressure the band was forced to deal with also made …

Alicia Keys is the R&B songstress that won the MTV ” Artist Of The Year” award in 1999 for bringing you hits like “A Womens Worth”, “You Don’t Know My Name”, “Fallin” and “Karma” and in 2005 MTV released the cd “Alicia Keys Unplugged” which is a live …

Disciple is a song by Slayer which starts out with a somewhat slow rhythm in comparison to an average Slayer song to be honest. When Araya first came in I thought his vocal tone was going to be absolutely terrible, and although it seems slightly bad on this track, …

Following up the lackluster 2006 release “The Information” should not be a difficult thing for loser iconoclast Beck, but “Modern Guilt” is yet another disappointing effort in a period of artistic decline that began with 2005’s “Guero”. It was in 2005 that Beck began to recycle ideas he had …

The Kaiser Chiefs is a band hailing from the United Kingdom. I first was introduced to their music by a friend of mine from England back in 2005. Their first album; Employment, was a hit with me. I liked all their songs on that release and then came Yours …

This album is impressive on several layers. Songs on this album are quite different from one another, and I would not say that I like all of them, all the types of songs that are there. But it is clear that none of the songs on the album are …

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, …

I wasn’t too familiar with Tinie Tempah before I saw his album advertised on the telly and often that is when you realise how many of his songs that you already knew. One stood out for me, this was Written In The Stars. I had heard it on the …

I’m reviewing the band Disturbed because they are by far my favorite band, and have been for years. Unlike other metal bands, their content is extremely original and they’re not just in it for the money and fame. I hate it when artists simply try and make their music …

This is the band’s second album released in 96 produced by Ross Robinson and recorded in Malibu California. This album is way darker then the last, with seemingly more time and thought put into the making of this album. Mr. Rogers is about Jon Davis’s drug induced obsession with …

The song Sailing On is from the play Saturday’s Warrior. All of the songs lyrics are by Doug Stewart and the music is by Lex De Azevedo, who also produced the play. The version I adore the most is sung by Cam Clarke, who some might know …

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 …

Of all the current young male singers, Josh Groban is the one that I admire the most. He has an impressive career, which I can only suppose was not easy. The lights apparently started shining on him when music producer David Foster first noticed his unique gift, …

When I first heard of this band, I didn’t really know to much about them other than they sounded a lot like Killswitch Engage. Well I got more than I bargained for. When I borrowed this CD from my friend Jacob, I was soon to find out that they …

Coldplay has yet again created another positively brilliant album! Although this one has a completely different sound from any of their other albums.. It will literally make you so happy you will feel as though your head is about to explode! Ha, love, love it. So to those people …

Gym Class Heroes are an American band that I didn’t know of till recently. I first heard about them when I heard their first single from a new album on the radio airways, Cupid’s Chokehold.
This song basically starts off with a series of a person singing “ba ba da …

This song is a song any teenage girl can relate to. The opening line goes “I like the way you sound in the morning… I like the way I can’t keep my focus…” This reminds me of waking up every morning for school, groggy and all. The only thing …

The first single off the latest Stone Temple Pilots record released almost a year ago is the first track entitled Between The Lines. It has an upbeat tempo that it starts off the album with. This song starts off with a heavy guitar intro where almost immediately Scott’s …

This song is a nice combination of both singers…Nelly and Fergie.
It starts off basically with Nelly leading the pack while Fergie is the main provider of the Chorus of the song with Nelly bringing up the raer or ending of the chorus. She does an absolutely great job in …

Black Limousine is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album Tattoo You. The track starts off with a clear blues rhythm and right away you definitely get the sense that this will be a blues-rock song. I don’t mind this at all since it’s better …

You Were Always On My Mind by Willie Nelson is a very smooth melody song. This is one song I like to listen to while my husband is watching football on TV. It helps to drown out the noise in the background and relaxes my mind from all of …

Gingerale Afternoon (The Astrology Of A Saturday) is a song by the Flaming Lips and the fifth track on their album Hit To Death In The Future Head. Taking on a slightly more rock sound than the two preceding tracks on this record, Gingerale Afternoon establishes a pretty catchy …

Jack Tragic & The Unfortunates were punk band from Connecticut, USA, who released full-blown, phenomenal hardcore during the time punk was on its way down. These guys were just about as obscure as they got and seemed to surface a couple years late. Their 1983 single, “I Kill Hippies”/”Mind …
