Memory of A Longing Love or also what it is called as ‘Memori Sekuntum Rindu’ is very poignant, sweeping and sad. I have teared a few times whilst listening to this song, sung by the band Spoon.

After the Success of the band last album this left them with more freedom on Lullabies, they got rid of Nick Oliveri, this is unfortunate but doesn’t slow the band down any, Troy Van Leeuwen of A perfect Circle fame (among many other bands he’s been in), Joey Castillo …

Now that I’m listening to a bit more of Muse’s music I’m realizing that a lot of it actually isn’t driven by guitar very much at all, and this is quite a contrast to the music which I’m typically accustomed to listening to. Obviously Muse does have guitar parts …

Weekend Wars is the second track off of MGMT’s second release, Oracular Spectacular. When I first started listening to MGMT, Weekend Wars was one of the first tracks to really jump out at me. I will say that compared to Time To Pretend, Weekend Wars changes much more, and …

Justin Bieber. You love him. You despise him. You are in the middle. Regardless everyone has their own distinct opinion of Justin Bieber. If any song is going to convince Bieber haters to see a positive side of the singer it’s his inspirational song “Pray.” Or it will just …

Like the band’s name Groove Armada, their song sounds groove too. Like this song ‘My friend’, it’s not a new song from them, but I really like it, because whenever I listen it sounds new for me.
The song sounds easy listening, it can calm down your mind when …

It’s every musician’s dream to go on the road and tour. But that also means he has to subject his beloved gear to the rigorous tortures of travel. It’s always a wise move to invest in a guitar case that could help prevent your gear from sustaining …

Eminem comes back after a very long pause (at least for me). Since the “Encore” which was released in 2004 …

“Sucker” is a Peeping Tom off of their album “Peeping Tom”. Peeping Tom is just one of the many associated acts and bands that Mike Patton either formed or contributes to. What made me want to review this particular song “Sucker” is that it quite oddly features the beautiful …

Boom Boom Pow is the new song from Black Eyed Peas. Like their previous song, it’s still a lot of beat, groove, and really nice to dance.
But, first time I hear this single, I can’t directly recognize that is the Blak Eyed Peas, because though the music is still …

The new two-member (Mike Sheppard & Vicky Backle) indie band, What Was Lost, from Vernon, New Jersey seem to have a unique and emotional style. I’m not too sure whether it’s the slow, sad voices or the crying of the guitar that makes this band so touching, but …

This record is appalling. I remember coming to this conclusion as soon as I listened to this record for the first time, and I still believe that this is the case. There is really nothing redeeming that can ever be said about this album, from my point of view, …

Bruce Springsteen’s Greatest Hits CD definitely contains some great songs: ‘Born to Run’, ‘Thunder Road’, and ‘Atlantic City’ among them. It also includes the first release of the awesome ‘This Hard Land’. I am a huge Bruce fan, so it almost pains me to say that this collection should …

I can’t break free of this song. It’s not so much stuck in my head as I am just strangely addicted to it. It’s incredibly catchy. I don’t know what the draw is because at face value it’s a techno song that sounds a little like …

The Bleeding is Cannibal Corpse’s fourth album, and last to feature Chris Barnes on vocals, who is now the vocalist for Six Feet Under. The album was released in 1994 on Metal Blade Records, and produced by Scott Burns. The album is not as fast all the way through, …

Sometimes it’s good to just listen to music that stands apart from the regular. I find that escape when I listen to 311. Nick Hexum just has such a mellow voice and I love the how reggae sound they mix with the rock sound. Some of my favorite 311 …
