Clint Lowery's Hello Demons... Meet Skeletons Choices	5.0
Outstanding from start-to-finish, Hello Demons Meet Skeletons final EP, Choices, is a breath-taker in every way shape and form. Part of the acoustic attributes from the first instalment are still intact here, but overall this is a straight-up rock album and it thrills from the start to the hilarious closing three or so minutes of "The Curtain Burns" with a seemingly improvised number known as "Walking the Streets at Night". While Chills ended with Lowery rambling, this instalment's rambling is much more focused and enjoyable to listen to. "I Give Up", "Your Ghost" and "Caved In" are the best tracks here, but they are all fantastic in all senses possible: lyrically, vocally and instrumentally as well. Give it a shot, it may just surprise you as much as it did me.

"Form and Function" is an incredible song, one of the best of the year so far I'd say. The rest is good, but it wanders around a bit too much in its experimentations at times. Still, when it shines, it shines bright.

The album rocks hard. Songs like "All's Well", "The World Is Dead" and "Pleased to Meet You" rule hard. It's definitely flawed (it has a terrible song to close things off with), but it rocks more than it stumbles and that's a good thing.

The Soul Rebels Unlock Your Mind	5.0
A wonderful blend of hip-hop, jazz and rock, songs like "504" and "I Made It" make these guys an immediate success. Classic album, a must-listen.

Gary Clark Jr. The Bright Lights	4.0
3 Doors Down Time of My Life	3.5
Oddly hated by many Sputnikmusic users, Time Of My Life is an otherwise solid array of tracks from 3 Doors Down that neither offend nor disrespect. This is the kind of solid music that the band is known for and they succeed considerably more than their past two records. Give it a chance and you could really enjoy it.

Sevendust Cold Day Memory	4.5
The songs rock, but Sevendust is back and they're at their peek.
Emanuel and the Fear Listen	5.0
Juggling a great deal of individuals and diversity in their debut LP, Listen finds equilibrium.
Gorillaz Plastic Beach	5.0
Plastic Beach is a fun ride that is guaranteed to put one, big 'ol smile across your face and keep you returning for more.
Lazerhawk Redline	5.0
Fast, energetic, imagine an '80s soundtrack, a beautiful car, drive it until it can't drive no more. That sets the pace for the awesomeness contained in this wonderful first effort by the wonderfully-named Lazerhawk.
College A Real Hero	5.0

2009
Emanuel and the Fear Emanuel and the Fear	4.5
Refreshingly inspired, just as they are original, this debut EP is a showcase of marvelous talent which leaves you with a positive feeling in the end.
Breaking Benjamin Dear Agony	2.5
Pearl Jam Backspacer	4.5
Just because a band's having fun, doesn't mean their product will suck. If they have fun the proper way: it will rock. This, ladies and gentlemen, rocks.
Chevelle Sci-Fi Crimes	4.0
The Black Eyed Peas The E.N.D. (The Energy Never Dies)	1.0
The most abysmal piece of non-music ever to be released.
Karnivool Sound Awake	5.0
Manchester Orchestra Mean Everything to Nothing	3.5
Metric Fantasies	3.5
Pearl Jam Ten Redux	5.0
The remix is fine. It isn't better than the original, nor is it worse. It succeeds in providing a brand new way to experience this already outstanding masterpiece.
Therapy? Crooked Timber	4.0
Chris Cornell Scream	2.5
One of the greatest vocalists of all-time (produced by Timbaland) delivers a train-wreck of guilty pleasure. While it is an awkward mix of talents, the songs are catchy and entertaining to listen to (when given a chance).
Red Fang Red Fang	4.5
Bruce Springsteen Working on a Dream	3.5
Bon Iver Blood Bank	3.0
Animal Collective Merriweather Post Pavilion	4.0
Not just a simple collection of songs and singles, but a single effort that's focused on achieving one primary goal: an engaging album. Merriweather Post Pavilion succeeds in creating a world for the listener to explore.

2008
College Secret Diary	2.5
The Killers Day & Age	2.0
Guns N' Roses Chinese Democracy	3.0
AC/DC Black Ice	2.0
With time left to let the message sink in, Black Ice was a dreadfully lazy effort from AC/DC. A disappointment to be forgotten, but "Rock 'N Roll Train" is one saving grace to an otherwise boring array of songs from AC/DC's D-sides collection.
Clint Lowery's Hello Demons... Meet Skeletons Chills	4.5
While it can run a bit slow at certain points, this EP is highly enjoyable, especially considering that it was made in a week while on-the-road. This project is a clear-cut home-run, a six-track EP that delivers whatever you were expecting from it's members, and then so, it packs a punch. "Devil in a Cage" is the best song in my eyes, but "It's Been Fun" and "Hell's Next Door" are up there as well. Give this EP a shot and you may be in for the under-the-radar surprise hit of 2008.
Oasis Dig Out Your Soul	2.5
Rise Against Appeal to Reason	3.0
The album feels disjointed (at times), but it gets the job done and sends the messenger.

Metallica Death Magnetic	2.0
Black Stone Cherry Folklore and Superstition	4.5

Coldplay Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends	4.0
Disturbed Indestructible	4.5
3 Doors Down 3 Doors Down	1.5
The "been there, done that" album for 3 Doors Down.
Sevendust Chapter VII: Hope and Sorrow	4.5
The Bravery The Sun and the Moon Complete	3.5
The Moon Version improves tremendously upon the original '07 release, but the '07 release is still included for variety.

Foo Fighters The Colour and The Shape (Expanded)	4.0
Bon Iver For Emma, Forever Ago	3.5
The Gaslight Anthem Sink or Swim	4.5
The National Boxer	4.5
"Start a War" is a song I remember vividly from the excellent movie Warrior, and it's stuck with me ever since. It truly is The National's best song, featured in an album that is a real champion of sorts.
Chevelle Vena Sera	4.0
Kings of Leon Because Of The Times	5.0
Kings of Leon at their best. Every song feels complete and arranged perfectly, align with one-another at all times. Because Of The Times as a whole is a terrific piece.
Sevendust Alpha	5.0
Kavinsky 1986	4.0
Anberlin Cities	3.5
With a strong handful of amazing songs, the album sometimes fails to be consistent in over-experimenting and fear of exploring their well-written lyrics further. Either way, Cities is a great album that closes on a powerful three-song home run.
Truckfighters Phi	5.0

2006
Daughtry Daughtry	2.0
Painfully generic and easy to pick on. Certain songs are interesting, but a large percentage of the album is filler. Painfully generic, bottom of the barrel, radio-play fodder.

Sevendust Next	5.0
Default One Thing Remains	5.0
On the level of Foo Fighter's recent Wasting Light album, One Thing Remains is a terrific modern-rock gem to be found from the past decade. It will not disappoint.
Nickelback All the Right Reasons	3.0
Hypnotically likable entry into a mediocre band's library. Nickelback's best album, ladies and gentlemen!
Smile Empty Soul Anxiety	4.0
Disturbed Ten Thousand Fists	3.0
Some of the band's very best songs make appearance on this album, but the album is uneven and feels incomplete. However, the album shines with an outstanding mid-section.
Sufjan Stevens Illinois	5.0
The song titles are charming enough, but Sufjan Steven's Illinois is charming all around. The twenty-two track CD is a nutritiously-delicious buffet.
K'naan The Dusty Foot Philosopher	4.5
Foo Fighters In Your Honor	3.0
Audioslave Out of Exile	4.0

Clutch Robot Hive/Exodus	5.0
3 Doors Down Seventeen Days	2.0
Seventeen Days is consistent, but it's also 3 Doors Down at their worst (behind their self-titled album). The songs are dull and boring, making the album a rough listening experience.

Anberlin Never Take Friendship Personal	4.0

2004
Kings of Leon Aha Shake Heartbreak	5.0
Quick and simple. Aha Shake Heartbreak is a delightful listen that builds with repeated listens.
Arcade Fire Funeral	4.0
Could be a tough listen for some with it's super slow build-up, but Arcade Fire's Funeral remains one of the strongest debut pieces for a band ever.
Alter Bridge One Day Remains	4.0
Rise Against Siren Song of the Counter Culture	4.5
Atomship The Crash of `47	5.0
Breaking Benjamin We Are Not Alone	4.5
We Are Not Alone is a solid effort from Breaking Benjamin. As an album, it's sturdy and consistently paced; featuring themes that pop a spark in your imagination. The band's best offering thus far in their career.
Seether Disclaimer II	3.5
The Killers Hot Fuss	3.5
Velvet Revolver Contraband	3.5
Seven Wiser Seven Wiser	5.0
"Life", "Good As You Think" and "Sick" are phenomenal songs that should have had tremendous success amongst fans of early Linkin Park and Autopilot Off. This is a great album full of outstanding songs that could be left on repeat for days.

Gorillaz Gorillaz	4.0
Individual songs stand as classics. But the album is all over the map, with hit-and-misses from left to right. Still, it's hard to resist not going back to play it through every now-and-then either. Tons of replay value, even with its flaws (which later albums, I found, swiftly improved).

Gets very boring fast because of it's fascination to cram in as much as inhumanly possible.

But it's not as phenomenal as the praise it gets.

1980
Motorhead Ace of Spades	5.0
There's nothing fancy about the way Motorhead rocks, they just do. Ace of Spades is simply splendid in that it doesn't waste time building up nothing, like most related musicians would do, but instead builds up nothing and leaves it to incredible riffs and the vocalist's bad-ass voice to satisfying your taste for extremely rockin' music.
Talking Heads Remain in Light	5.0
Absurd, yet maniacally genius, Remain in Light is an odd-ball masterpiece with some of the catchiest, weird songs of all-time. It's beautiful.
