Stone Sour is what i would describe an alternative metal band. Their second album’s title is Come What(ever) May from Roadrunner Records. It came out on August 1 of this year. I picked this up, but not because their lead vocalist is Corey Taylor or not because one of …

Going To California is a song by Led Zeppelin which appears on their fourth record, Led Zeppelin IV. Opening up with an intricate guitar pattern, Robert Plant comes in with a gentle and melodic vocal delivery which fits perfectly with the music behind him. Thus far, the instrumentation is …

In The Aeroplane Over The Sea is a song by Neutral Milk Hotel which appears on their second album of the same name. Opening up with an acoustic strumming pattern similar to that of The King Of Carrot Flowers Pt. 1, Jeff Magnum comes in with a vocal delivery …

So Simple by Stacie Orrico is a very nice catchy song and I love listening to this particular track each time. The song is actually about renewed freedom and having a new elixir to life. I love the song, including the video clip as well, and if you …

Ciara
“And I”
Goodies
LaFace Records
Director: The Fat Cats
Finally, Ciara does a music video by herself and without any guest artists featured in it. Sweet. This is the fourth and final single/music video from the “Goodies” album, titled “And I”. The song is a slow R&B ballad and is a unique departure …

I can only say one thing. Amazing! This CD has broken new ground for the band. I think it’s a masterpiece. When I first heard that Anberlin was switching record companies, I was kind of disappointed. I thought that they would be rushed to release a CD for …

“And The Circus Leaves Town” is the final Kyuss album to be released before their breakup. Although the band is now back together again, it no longer has all of the original members, most notably Josh Homme and Nick Oliveri. Both critics and fans alike seem to harbor mixed …

I got the Fender Frontman 10G with a “starter pack” from Guitar Center, which also included a Stratocaster and etc accessories. As suggested, I was pretty new to the guitar and didn’t really need anything massive to practice with. I found no problem entirely using the small 10w amp …

E=MC2 by Mariah Carey album doesn’t disappoint. At a moment when I thought that there might be lesser and perhaps then extinct singing voice from Mariah Carey, she surprises me up with an album.
And to summarize, E=MC2 truly is a fly. It has the normal sounding …

John Denver was not only a great musician but a good pilot. His love for flying is reflected in his song ‘I’m leaving on a jet plane.’ Don’t you wish you had enough money to be able to have your own jet airplane? It cost quite a bit …

What I do remember in this song is the part where Git Fresh is sing Bam bam bam part and the ding ding ding ding part. It also uses the intro of the song Tom’s Dinner by Suzanne Vega, so it is easy to remember. It is a great …

Another album to go from this incredible band ever called “Folie a Deux”. It’s actually had been planned for releasing in November 4th, but according to this band, they didn’t want to call this album as a part of one side campaign remembering the general election of that day. …

One Of My Lies is a song by Green Day which appears on their album Kerplunk. The track starts out with a pretty raw sounding three-chord guitar riff before the bass and drums join in. Something I like about the sound thus far is that the production really isn’t …

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 …

The debut album “Act of Kindness” by the Dan Bruder Band was recommended to me by a good friend who told me it was one of the best new, pure-bred rock albums that was steeped in American rock roots he had heard in a long time. For those not …

I recently started getting into this whole country music thing, and one of my main reason is because this guy. After Barefoot Blue Jean Night and Alone With You, I really did not think he had yet another song I would really like, since usually most artists I like …

New York-based alternative rock newcomer, X Ambassadors might just get away with their new hit, “Renegades”. Already Top 20 in Alternative radios and Top 40 in iTunes, quite a rare feat considering Alternative Rock songs barely smash. But here they are, with a song worthy to take over the …

Jon Bon Jovi is not everyones cup of tea, but I think he has released some absolute classics and this was one that lived with me for a long time and still probably does.
In Always, I have no idea if he is singing about an actual experience of his …

Jay-Z
“D.O.A. (Death of Auto-Tune)”
The Blueprint 3
Roc-A-Fella Records
Director: Philip Andelman
Jay-Z finally speaks out about today’s crappy music! Thank God. “Death of Auto-Tune” aka “D.O.A.” is the first single and music video from his latest album (to be released this coming Fall) titled “The Blueprint 3″. Jay-Z is back with a …

This song is excellent we can’t deny that. Actually, this song has been recommended as one of the top 10 graduation song of all time. The message of the song allows us to reflect on how we deal with separation. Some may ask why is it suitable for a graduation …

Together Again is a song from Janet Jackson. It is part of the album The Velvet Rope. It is originally written as ballad but they re-arranged it and come out with an energetic melody that you can dance with it. When I heard the first line of lyrics and …

Sheryl Crow’s sixth studio album, Detours, reflects globally and on Crow herself. Crow’s lyrics are maternal, religious, hopeful and at times political. Spaced between them are monotonous “oh”s and “yeah yeah yeah”s (good example in “Gasoline”). Disappointingly, this album does not show Crow’s powerful, playful vocals made her a …

Two Sails On A Sound is a song by Animal Collective which appears on their fourth studio album, Here Comes The Indian. Beginning in a manner which is characteristic to this album, Animal Collective take their time in establishing an introduction before going into any bulk of the song. …

I was never really a big fan of Mariah Carey’s but after hearing her new songs on the radio and then obtaining her cd I can defintely say she’s one of hip-hop’s M.V.P. Her cd the Emancipation of Mimi was excellent. She really put her haert in this one. …

Live in Hollywood was made in RBD’s first L.A. (U.S.A) concert in January 2006 (Jan. 21st) in Los Angeles’s famous Pantages Theater. This cd is very cool and fun, because rbd is one of the best musical group that I already have seen. Their musics are impressive because there …

I am a great fan of this band, and have been for a long time. While several of the songs can occasionally be heard playing in shops, most of the songs aren’t as well known, but can be bought on CDs or on the internet. This particular CD (called …

Eminem- Curtain Call (The Hits)
Is it just me or is Eminem always supposedly retiring from the hip hop scene only to come back with yet another release? Well, not that I’m complaining of course, The more music from this rap genius the better as far as I’m concerned! This …

Overview —“ Enter Sandman, the second music video ever released by Metallica, comes off of their fifth record, The Black Album, and focuses on the story of a boy and his nightmares. The song itself would have to be one of Metallica’s best known songs because of all the …

Primer 55 isn’t a very well-known band, although I believe they had a song on a popular soundtrack, perhaps the Resident Evil movie? But this CD is quite a solid effort, maybe even great if you’re into the kind of hardcore tinged with funk sound they bring. …

Let me just say it’s a shame this album took too long to catch on. Jordin sparks has incredible vocal talents. I mean, she was just born to be a singer. I love her look; she’s not super thin and I hope she never goes that way; she’s just …

Better Than Me by Hinder is a song about how a guy is feeling down about his girl and realizing that the girl deserves better than him. obviously he was not treating the girl right and has tried to convince himself that he is not going to miss her. …

Seal Eyeing is a song by Animal Collective and the final track on their EP Water Curses. Easily the most relaxing track on this record and one of Animal Collective’s most calming songs in general, Seal Eyeing places a pretty well balanced amount of focus on the music and …

This band made waves when they released a great remake of the Lynnard Skinnard song “Simple Man.” “Burning Bright” and “45″ were the other singles released to radio that were every bit as well-received as “Simple Man.” And while these songs are easily the best songs on …

Twentieth Century Fox is a song by The Doors which appears on their self-titled debut record. The song opens up with a nice guitar riff by Robby Krieger before the drums join in along with a nice organ line before Morrison comes in with the vocals. Morrison has a …

If you want to talk about a diverse singer, Kid Rock would be the one. He changes sides so often that you almost can’t keep up with him. He goes from songs like “American Badass” to “Picture” without batting an eyelash. Honestly, I don’t even know what genre that …

Take some urban music, and give it a tribal undertone and you’ll have a good bit of the sound that is Aurlar. This is the first album by MIA, and its a doozy. When I first heard this album i was reminded of the type of world …

I Want To Be Something is a song by Weezer which appears on their record Hurley. The song starts out pretty quietly and only features Cuomo, singing quite delicately I might add, along with a simple acoustic guitar part. After around thirty seconds, and Cuomo gradually picking up his …

This is my favorite way to buy music because it’s convenient and inexpensive!
The prices can’t be beat for the most part. Why should I buy a CD for fifteen dollars at Sam Goody when I can get it for ten dollars on iTunes? I love how most of the …

Around The Fur is the Deftones second album, released in 1997, again produced by Terry Date. The band has stated the meaning of Around The Fur is something thats not bad, but not good around the fur. My Own Summer is one of the best songs ever, the song …

One of my sisters favorite male country singers is Keith Urban. It is for that reason that she bought me one of his cd, hoping that I would not like it and would give it to her. The album that she bought me was his self titled album “Keith …

I love The Verve. They’re sound is similar to that of Oasis, very haunting and thought provoking. This is their greatest hits album. I don’t own many of their singles, hence why I decided to buy this album. The album is simply amazing. The standout track for me is …

Video: Emotion
Album: Survivor
Label: Columbia Records
Director: Francis Lawrence
“Emotion” is the third single and music video from Destiny’s Child’s third album titled “Survivor”, following the previous singles and music videos - “Survivor” and “Bootylicious”. “Emotion” is the laid-back, sentimental third single which one should expect from most R&B and …

Psycho is a track by System Of A Down which appears on their second record, Toxicity. The track does a good job of establishing a very dark atmosphere in the beginning of the song due to a hypnotizing simple bass rhythm which is soon accompanied by a characteristic guitar …

Something Else by Good Charlotte is a song that I like in some ways because it is about how every one wants something else no matter what they might have. It also is talking about how you can be any thing you want to be no matter what your …

Stand Up for Love is not the new single from Destiny’s child, its been for years ago but I still like this song. This is one of my favorite song from Destini’s Child. It has deep lyrics that make me touched everytime I listen this song.
This song is also …

Before they were one of the greatest bands of all time, there was the black album.
Opening the album is the heavyly rotated “Enter Sandman”. This track begins with mouth crunching guitars and drums. Throughout the entire track you are wondering if the boogyman himself …

This song is such a feel good dance song. I originally looked it up because one of my favourite music artist said it was his current favourite song. Now I look way past that and question why I did not know this song before! It is a combination between …

Who We Are, is absolutely an Amazing album.
If you love song lyrics, you will love Lifehouse Lyrics.
Great songs, if your not a fan now, you will be.
I have not had just ” one favorite band ” in a long time now I do.
The lyrics to afew of the songs …

Overview —“ (Anesthesia) Pulling Teeth is the fifth song on the first album released by Metallica which strikes me as an extremely strange move to even include this song on their debut record. For those of you who don’t know what this track is, this will become very clear …

I love Musiq’s album Loveandmusiq, but I’m not really feeling this new album he has out. The album is selling like crazy, but I feel that it’s missing the great songs that would make it a great album.
I guess you can’t expect an artist to make a hit …
