Ablum : Tracey Bonham - Masts Of Manhatta (2010)
I missed this album when it was first released last year, but recently i had a chance to check it out and i’m pretty glad i did. I hadn’t really heard much from Tracey Bonham since she hit the charts with the song Mother Mother, so i really didn’t …
Back Here by BBMak
This UK Band, singing their hit single titled, Back Here is one of the best songs ever sung by this band. And this band is none other than BBMak. I don’t know whether the BB and the Mak should be close or separated, but that’s more or less …

Michael, Time To Wake Up is a song by The Flaming Lips and the third song off of their third record, Telepathic Surgery. Opening up briefly with the sound of a baby, the track soon transitions into the bulk of the song which is made up of a guitar …
Paul Stanley “Live To Win” album

“I Choose You” CD of Vonda Beerman
I accidentally discovered this amazing singer named Vonda Beerman at YouTube. I was so impressed with her voice so I immediately researched the net about her. Well and good, for I was able to find out she has song albums on sale. So I was able to buy …
Green Day - 1,000 Hours (EP)
Overview —“ 1,000 Hours, an EP released by Green Day and also their first release in their entire career was pretty interesting to listen to. Now personally I’m a lot more accustomed to more recent Green Day work, or even work in the middle of their career, so going …
Youth of a Nation - P.O.D.
I am a true fan of music, and able to listen to just about any genre without feeling as though I need to switch to something else. I must admit, though, I have never really been a fan of anthem rock, as I usually find it either completely boring …
ProCo Vintage Rat Reissue
The Rat is my favourite distortion/fuzz pedal. This pedal is always on my board and I’m always using it as my ‘go to’ distortion. It’s so versitile, with sounds ranging from just a slight boost to a full blown rough fuzz. It’s very easy to use and …
Nine Inch Nails - Closer (Song)

Rammstein (band)
I first heard of the German rock band Rammstein when I had just left high school and had begun to crave metal and explore some of the heavier genres of rock music. Someone had introduced me to the music of Rammstein, which I became even more interested in hearing …
Anberlin
I first discovered Anberlin about three years ago when I went to visit my family in Wisconsin. I remember being in an F.Y.E. store in one of the local malls and seeing a white album with a statue’s head on it and there were blue flowers growing out of that …
Calling you by Blue October
Calling you by Blue October is a beautiful song to me because it is talking about a person who is surprised this other person to pick them to go out with them. This song is also wonderful in the way it is talking about a person who is …
Tainted Love (song by, Soft Cell)
I remember when I first heard Tainted Love on a radio station when I was visiting the United States. I was immediately hooked to this song but little did I realize it was quite an old song already. About 16 years old or just a bit more really.
I actually …
Andrew Jackson Jihad - Sorry Bro (Song)

Kyuss - El Rodeo (song)
“El Rodeo” happens to be on Kyuss last studio album …And The Circus Leaves Town. Although the actual album wasn’t Kyuss best albums compared to the excellent “Blues for the Red Sun” and equally good “Welcome to Sky Valley”, it did churn out this little diddy. “El Rodeo” happens …
Neutral Milk Hotel - In the Aeroplane over the Sea
Before I even decided to listen to this album, I have had many discussions with people, including friends of mine, about this album. The question I would always bring up is “what is it about this particular album that makes people in underground/indie music go nuts. For me, witnessing …
Ennie Meenie by Sean Kingston and Justin Bieber
I love Fire in the dance floor, one of the songs that Sean Kingston made popular. Now he made another song that is good song for dancing. Ennie Meenie is the song that he collaborated with Justin Bieber and it is just amazing! I love it! I have to …
Badonkadonk by Tracy Adkins

Ozzmosis, 1995 Album by Ozzy Osbourne
I probably would not have been prompted to write a review of this album in particular, if I hadn’t gotten to stumble upon quite negative reviews of this album online. If you go by the reviews that are online, you will definitely form the impression that this album is …
Escape From Hellview - CKY
Often times, concept music is a genre that just seems to do nothing but turn me off. For the most part, I find music that tells fictional stories to be insufferable, as they seem to always fall into the same boring tones regardless of who is performing it. This …
Til I Forget About You- Big Time Rush
Til I Forget About You is what really made me like Big Time Rush. Being one of the first songs I heard by them, I am not easy to please with music by all means but by the second time I was listening to this song I loved it! …

Katy Perry - Rise (2016 Theme Song for Olympics)
If there’s a popstar that I believe could make a hit after hit without tiring the general audience, I will probably say it is Katy Perry. Her presence in the music industry is pretty much felt in the span of almost a decade, (gosh it makes me feel old) …
Neutral Milk Hotel - Holland, 1945 (Song)
Holland, 1945 is a song by Neutral Milk Hotel and is the sixth track on their album In The Aeroplane Over The Sea. Though the song opens up with an acoustic guitar pattern, the band goes electric pretty much immediately before launching into the first verse which has an …
Recovery by Eminem
It can take a lot to make a comeback. Sometimes it takes something as simple as a new look. Other times it takes sheer determination and effort. And then there are times when it takes a little something extra.
But for Eminem, a comeback seemed like a distant dream
In 2009, …

Timbaland feat. Katy Perry - If I Ever See You Again (Music)
I love Timbaland, and he’s always so sensual and melodramatic sometimes when it comes to his songs but they’re really wholesome, and when I heard Katy Perry was going to sing her too I was very ecstatic as I love her, and although they might have come off as …
Hot Fuss, 2004 Album by The Killers
Probably, if one assessed this album with a very strict eye, one could find some, maybe, several, faults with it. But I am not going to care about it so much, but instead will try explain why I personally love this record, why it is very special to me …
One Last Dance CD
The CD to the movie One Last Dance is incredibly dynamic and awesome. It truly takes the listener on a journey that is powerful and emotional. This is the story of three dancers, once torn apart and now brought back together in a time of sorrow, but they …
