I’ve spent a little bit of time this weekend looking for some new music to add to my already eclectic iTunes playlist. And without my Last.fm user account I wouldn’t have been able to find any of these.
I’ve been a Last.fm member for a little more than two years now, and I’ve seen it go […]
Wow, this is certainly not what I expected. Again, my expectations getting in the way, but I don’t think any fan of Tomahawk can deny that this album practically came out of nowhere in terms of musical anticipation.
For the first few tracks I was hard-pressed to believe that this was actually a Tomahawk album, […]
I needed a good two weeks or so — past the two weeks that I wasn’t even aware this album was out — to fully get a grip on it. However, I knew from the very first track (’The Surge’) that this was different, a lot different, from the previous two Ion Dissonance albums. […]
There’s no human interest that can generate such extreme opinions as in music. I’ve certainly seen this to be true with some of my album reviews when people leave comments — most of which I have to delete before they even reach the site.
Since this is the case, I thought I’d generate a small list […]
I really feel like I’ve had this album on my computer and I’ve been waiting to review it for so long. I’ve been listening to it on and off for at least two weeks, but it’s been really hard to get a good grip on exactly what I think of the album.
If I had […]
definitive (de-fin-i-tive) adjective
most reliable or complete, as of a text, author, criticism, study, or the like
serving to define, fix, or specify definitely
having its fixed and final form; providing a solution or final answer
I’m not sure which of these definitions fits properly to Rock and Roll Hall of Fame’s The Definitive 200, but needless to say […]
I’m not a die-hard listener of The Locust, so I wasn’t really expecting too much when I came across a copy of their new album. I did much prefer Safety Second, Body Last (SSBL) to any of their other stuff — not just because it’s more accessible, but I just like the overall tone […]
Although I have been waiting for this album for quite a while, before I even heard the first single on the radio, I didn’t have very high expectations of it. I mean — how could I? I bought their last, self-titled album the very minute I could get my hands on it. It was that […]
Now I see why I got so hooked on this album so quick… I’m such a sucker for these spacey guitar sounds. To me, this album really seems reminiscent of Failure (especially Fantastic Planet). I’m always up for praising Fantastic Planet, so to make the comparison is certainly an honour. I especially heard this parallel […]
I just came across a very interesting project out of Port Perry, called the Linux Guitar Project. The project is pretty much what it sounds like: an “open source” guitar that utilizes Linux, and it’s primary goal is to offer both hardware and software built-in to the guitar for recording and practicing. This is definitely […]
