Arcade Fire Funeral | 4.5 |
As I Lay Dying The Powerless Rise | 3.5 |
While the lyrics don't really shine on this album, the consistent songs and great musicianship make up for it. At some point, it lacks a bit of variety, but overall, this is a pretty good album. |
At the Drive-In Relationship of Command | 4.5 |
Avenged Sevenfold Avenged Sevenfold | 2.5 |
Contains some decent songs, but overall it's pretty average. |
Avenged Sevenfold Waking the Fallen | 3.5 |
Bad Religion Into the Unknown | 2.0 |

An amazing album by one of the best and most consistent Punk bands out there. |
Bad Religion No Control | 4.5 |
Barrow Being Without | 3.5 |
Beastie Boys Licensed to Ill | 3.5 |
Billy Talent Billy Talent III | 2.5 |
A pretty dissapointing album. With some exceptions ("Pocketful Of Dreams", "Rusted From The Rain" and "Worker Bees"), this lacks a lot of the elements that made Billy Talent 1+2 so great. |

Eminem The Slim Shady LP | 3.5 |
While not as good as MMLP, this is still pretty solid and contains a few gems, such as "Rock Bottom", "I'm Shady" and "Brain Damage".rIf you like MMLP, you should definitely check it out. |

Green Day 21st Century Breakdown | 2.5 |
A very interesting record. Green Day obviously tried to do something epic, something glorious here. But what it turned out to be is nothing too interesting, since everything is so overproduced and poppy. rWhile there are a few pretty good songs, such as "Peacemaker" or "Static Age", the overall mediocrity and "epicness" make the album uninteresting and boring. |
Green Day Nimrod | 3.5 |
Green Day American Idiot | 3.5 |
Green Day pulls away from their pop-punk roots and manages to create a very addicting and poppy album. |

Limp Bizkit Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water | 2.5 |
Limp Bizkit Gold Cobra | 3.0 |
What can one say about Gold Cobra? In short, it's an album by Limp Bizkit.rLike on previous albums, there's absolutely no change in style, and not even a sign of maturity. But the thing is, that's exactly what Limp Bizkit is all about, and the only thing that makes them somewhat interesting. Their music is superficial, childish, and enormously stupid, but still quite some fun. Now, this does not make up for the lack of emotion and maturity, but if you give it a chance, you might even like it. (At least for some time) |
Limp Bizkit Significant Other | 3.5 |
While very superficial and stupid, this is an extremely fun listen. |
Linkin Park Minutes to Midnight | 2.0 |
Linkin Park Meteora | 2.5 |
There are some decent songs on here ("Session", "Faint", "Lying from you"), but most of it is just boring. |
Linkin Park Hybrid Theory | 3.0 |
Linkin Park A Thousand Suns | 3.5 |
After the generic crap that was Minutes To Midnight, Linkin Park releases an interesting, for some part matured and well thought - out album that makes them somewhat interesting again. If you are willing to open up your mind, you will a great album that, while there's definitely room for desire here, shows that LP has grown up and has found a new, well fitting sound. |

Nickelback Here and Now | 1.0 |
Q:Why does this album even exist?rA: To make a shitload of money.r |
Nickelback Dark Horse | 2.0 |
Nickelback yet again releases a record. Yay.rThis album is exactly what you'd expect it to be - boring, recycled, generic and sounds exactly like all their other albums. The only sort of "innovation" is the addition of drinking songs, which were obviously only written to get loads of money.rStay as far away as humanly possible. |
Nickelback Silver Side Up | 2.5 |
The only half-decent Nickelback album, with what is probably their best song (which is not saying much): "How You Remind Me"rEven I, as a Nickelback hater, have to admit that that song is good, and somewhat emotional. The rest of the album is, as expected, generic, boring, and freed of any sort of innovation. rIt's still better than brokenCYDE. |

Pretty solid, but theres just too much mediocrity in some of the songs (especially the ballads). |
Rammstein Reise, Reise | 3.5 |
Rammstein Mutter | 4.0 |
Much softer than "Sehnsucht" and "Herzeleid", but nonetheless a great album, and an important point in Rammstein's career. |

Rebstar Bad Karma | 3.5 |
Red Hot Chili Peppers I'm With You | 2.5 |
Rise Against Appeal to Reason | 3.0 |
Even though there's not a single weak track on here, this is probably their worst release, since the songs on here just don't seem to fit together.rStill, not a bad album, and if you want to get into Rise Against, this is a good place to start. |
Rise Against Revolutions per Minute | 4.0 |
While still pretty raw and hardcore - influenced, this album is much more accessible than their debut, and an amazing piece of work.rOverall, every band member shines here - Tim's raw voice accompanies the fast drumming, great basslines and guitar extremely good. Definitely worth checking out. |
Rise Against Siren Song of the Counter Culture | 4.0 |
Rise Against The Sufferer and the Witness | 4.5 |
With some extremely good songs, great lyrics and a lot of energy behind the songs, this is one of the best albums Rise Against has released. |

Skrillex Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites | 3.5 |
Even though I am not a great fan of electronic music, this is a great EP, with the exceptions of the remixes and "With You, Friends (Long Drive)", which is by far too long and boring. |

The Protomen Act II: The Father of Death | 4.0 |
A very interesting album. It's definitely a step above their first album (even though i miss the metal/progressive that was pretty present on their debut), and always worth a listen. I'm certainly going to keep an eye on them, since they have a lot of potential. |
The Roots Game Theory | 4.0 |
The Roots Things Fall Apart | 4.0 |
The Roots undun | 5.0 |
The Roots present what is probably my favorite album of 2011. Filled with emotion, a well told story, that might be quite clichee, but is still very interesting, and amazing beats. These support the themes very well, and add a dark, you might even say, mysterious vibe. If you are into Hip-Hop, and even, if you aren't, this is definitely worth listening to. |
