This little amp really packs a wallop. But the only problem I have is that the sound doesn’t have enough bass for my taste. The overdrive is very sharp and crisp. And this particular model is very very good for extremely crunchy guitar riffs. …

R. Kelly
“Trapped In The Closet, Part 4″
TP-3 Reloaded
Jive Records
Picking up where Part 3 left off, we see Sylvester speeding home in front of a fake moving screen (you know the type) only to be stopped by a police officer Sgt. James (played by Michael Kenneth Williams). Sgt. James gives …

There is something really special about this album. There are many people out there who do not appreciate Limp Bizkit that much. But I am guessing that those people will find less of the stuff they could object to on this record. For me personally, this album is probably …

Although not well known in the United States until her song “Possibility” was featured on the “New Moon” movie soundtrack, Swede Lykke Li was already well known in her native country.
An independent musician, Li could best be described as a living, breathing work of art. If I could define …

This video used the most simple scenes to make the video so extra special. It gave me a feeling of happiness whenever I watched it and it filled my head with good memories when I was in high school. I wouldn’t think a video by Katy Perry would be …

Black Label Society’s Mafia was one of the best metal albums of 2005 if not the best, the album comes on strong with Fire It Up, one of the bands fiercest songs followed by the bluesy slightly mellow (in no way mellow at all) Whats In You, a short …

“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 …

Sanctified is a track by Nine Inch Nails which appears on their first album, Pretty Hate Machine. The track opens up in a very tribal manner with some eerie tones before a bass guitar comes in followed by Reznor’s voice. The entire introduction of this song and the verse …

Hari-Krishna Stomp Wagon is a song by The Flaming Lips and the fifth song on their third album, Telepathic Surgery. Opening up with a distorted guitar riff, the band thankfully have the bass fairly prominently in the mix which is nice to hear after some nice bass fills throughout …

I love Coldplay. They have this style that no other band has. Chris Martin’s voice is so unique that when you hear him singing, you instantly know that it’s him. Before I bought this album, I would often listen to “Yellow” and “The Scientist”. The album X&Y has so …

Album: MTV Unplugged
Label: Columbia Records
Director: Larry Jordan
“If It’s Over” is the second and final single and music video from Mariah Carey’s MTV Unplugged album, following the Jackson Five reenactment with Trey Songz titled “I’ll Be There”. Once again, we are treated to compiled footage …

Opeth have always been a band of new beginnings, and on their fifth release “Blackwater Park”, they change it all up again.
Opeth are critically acclaimed for their re-invention of Death Metal back in the early Ninties. Fusing Folk and Death Metal and creating music that almost borders on the …

Garth Brooks does a song called Honky Tonk Bar Association. This song makes fun of our government. It talks about going and joining the Honky Tonk Bar Association which stands for going to a bar and getting drunk to solve your everyday problems. The bar does not require …

If you’re looking for that Les Paul sound with not a lot of money but enough to get something like the Epiphone Les Paul Ultra, it is well worth the money. This guitar plays like a champ with its bright tone from the Classic plus pickups that sound great …

Sit Down. Stand Up. (Snakes And Ladders.) is a song by Radiohead which appears on their record Hail To The Thief. The track opens up with a fairly eerie sound to it as it’s led by percussion and other distant instruments before establishing a more solid rhythm and Yorke …

Eye Of The Beholder, the third track off of And Justice For All, is a track that I will admit I really don’t like very much in comparison to the rest of And Justice For All. I wouldn’t say that I strongly dislike the song or anything but I …

Susie Q is a cover performed by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album 12 X 5. As I said, the track is a cover, of a pretty well known song I may add, so I will just be talking about the execution of this song. I believe …

Train Of Consequences is a song by Megadeth which appears on their album Youthanasia. The track opens up with a heavily palm-muted riff by Mustaine before a very ehavy bass line comes in beneath this. Mustaine comes in with the vocals which certainly has that characteristic snarl of his …

By the late 80’s, GG Allin’s music has become obsessed with murder, necrophilia, sex, drugs, and et cetera anti-social themes. His voice has become a heavily distorted yell, making his vocals sound like a 60 year smoker yelling. The recording quality has decreased to the point that some songs …

This is one the most appealing attitude song from Michael Jackson’s ( MJ) Album BAD. Michael Jackson has had got everything right in this one. MJ is known for his songs against apartheid, and he has consistently given an artistic expression to his bitter experience(s) through songs like …

No One Else is a song by Weezer which appears on their self-titled debut record, otherwise known as The Blue Album. Opening up with a fast guitar riff, Rivers Cuomo comes in with the vocal melody nearly immediately and I must say that if this is your first time …

Even though I like all genres of music, I have not had the opportunity to hear much reggae until I was watching the movie “Cocktail” starring Tom Cruise. There was a love scene between his character and Elizabeth Shue at an amazing waterfall and that is where I first heard …

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 …

Although Titanic by Original Soundtrack has been around for a few years now, I still listen to it as of current. The hums and music background are very nice and teary.
There was once I fought with my boyfriend, and due to that, we did not talk for about …

‘Santa Claus is watching you’ this is a parity song by Ray Stevens. It is based on what many people tell their children when they are little that Santa Claus can see you when you are good and bad so you need to be good all the time. It …

For the band Skid Row, their image may be best defined by their larger-than-life frontman Sebastian Bach and his powerful, soaring screams but one cannot dismiss the fact that the band’s over-all sound is the key ingredient in
making Skid Row one of the most noted rock outfit to ever …

When I was much younger in the nineteen nineties, one of my favourite music artistes was the musician Alanis Morissette. At the time I had no idea what her name was even though I would see her music videos play every Saturday especially. I remember even seeing her perform …

At first I thought this collaboration album was going to be below average on my expectations but I was dead wrong. The Maybach Music Group (MMG) consists of rappers; Rick Ross, Wale, Meek Mill, Pill, Teedra Moses and Gunplay. Their first collaboration album titled ” Self Made Vol. 1″ …

A Song Dedicated To The Memory Of Stormy The Rabbit is a song by Andrew Jackson Jihad which appears on their album People That Can Eat People Are The Luckiest People. What I will say immediately about this track is that although I think the songwriting is just brilliant, …

So, would you believe it. Robbie Williams and Gary Barlow not only friends again but dueting.
Shame is actually quite a cheesy track and if it had been wrote or performed by anyone else I think it would have been panned but this is a duet between two men whose …

I am so in love with this song, titled Dayang Nurfaizah - Still You Leave. The title is also known as ‘Kau Pergi Jua’. This song is actually a cover version of another veteran singer and Dayang Nurfaizah is sort of Malaysia’s answer to Beyonce. And she …

My dad bought this for about $74.99, and he is a classic fan of Guys and Dolls, no matter his age. I was browsing through some of his old records CD, and I found this Guys And Dolls by Musical Repertory.
I started to listen to it, and I …

It is my dream to travel around the world and if someone asks me what CD I will bring when I travel, I will answer : Jason Mraz’s third album - We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things
Yup, in this new album, Jason Mraz really brings a travel spirit, …

I’ve played a lot of guitars in my day and nothing has ever come close to the handling and playability I get from my trusty Fender Strat. My parents bought it for me when I was 15 years old through a family friend.
One of the nicest features to …

If you have been listening to top 40 radio, you have no doubt heard about Miley Cyrus! This is Billy Ray Cyrus’s daughter, who has made millions for the Walt Disney Company. I have to say, I kinda like her. The music isn’t overly pop filled with nonsense, it’s …

Together with Mogwai back in the early 1990s, Godspeed You! Black Emperor was the team of musicians that made post-rock into a musical genre of its own, taking a bit of influence from a bands like Slint and Savage Republic. They have never declared themselves as a “band” by …

3005 is a song by Scars On Broadway which appears on their self-titled debut record. Along with Babylon, I would consider this to be one my favorite tracks on the album and I love how Malakian went with quite a different style on this track compared to the rest …

The Kids Quartet is a track by MGMT which appears on their first record, Climbing To New Lows. The song opens up with a very odd opening, there’s an odd vocal effect along with a drum rhythm which leads into what sounds like a synthesizer coming in and out …

Grown Up Wrong is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their record The Rolling Stones No. 2. The track opens up with a lightly distorted guitar riff along with the drums joining in which gives the song sort of a blues-like rhythm although to no major …

Here Comes The Indian is the fourth studio record released by Animal Collective. Overall, the impression I get from Here Comes The Indian is that it sounds almost if they’re trying to recreate the melodic and relaxing atmosphere they established on Campfire Songs, but this time do it with …

Paranoid is a cover by Megadeth which appears on their record Hidden Treasures. Hopefully if you’re a fan of metal then you’ll know that the original version of this song is by Black Sabbath and that you’ve heard the track before. If not, then I’d highly recommend first listening …

Magical Mystery Tour is the title track of a record released by The Beatles. This song is the starting track on the album and it’s actually a pretty good representation of what’s going to follow. The track opens up in a very energetic fashion and actually features an extremely …

This soundtrack is incredibly hard to find, but it is so very worth it. I wanted this soundtrack unlike any other Godzilla soundtrack because it contains a truly outstanding combination of both old and new music from the Godzilla series that was used in Godzilla vs. Biollante, like a …

2008 is setting up to be the year of the comeback in the Jackson home. First up is Janet. Janet Jackson’s newest album ‘Discipline’ is setting up to be her best album in quite a while. Combined with a new team of producers and more concentrated …

Lil’ Kim ft. Phil Collins
“In The Air Tonight”
Urban Renewal
WEA
This must be Lil’ Kim’s attempt at an epic music video that has some sort of plot to it aka a mini-movie. R. Kelly has done it, Puff Daddy has done it, and Michael Jackson has certainly done it. My guess …

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 …

If you do not know who Drag-on is, he is a former Ruff Ryders artist who made several tracks with musical great DMX including �Ruff Ryders Anthem Remix� and �No Love For Me� which created a huge buzz for his first solo record titled �The Opposite of H2o�. …

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 …

I bought the CD Hopes and Fears basically because of the song “Everybody’s Changing”. I just fell inlove with it the first time I heard it, so I told myself I have to buy the CD. Hopes and Fears is Keane’s debut album and contains 12 songs. I must …
