Minus the Bear Acoustics3.5
Minus The Bear's acoustic album offers a short, sweet and pleasant listen. Songs like "We Are Not A Football Team", "Knights", and "Pachuca Sunrise" all translate well onto acoustic guitars and slower drums. New song "Guns and Ammo" is another pleasant listen but doesn't bring anything too new to the table. Only complaint is Jake Snider's vocals fall flat towards the end on songs like "Burying Luck" and "Ice Monster". Overall a nice, short album.

To be honest, I hate this album. I love Water and am certainly open to change, becasue I also love We're Already Gone, but this doesn't sound like The Beautiful Girls. It's more poppy and some of the songs sound forced

I understand why some people hate on this album, but it's really under appreciated I think. It's got some great beats and great tracks and unlike some of his other albums, I doesn't often feel boring or repetitive

Slightly Stoopid Closer To The Sun3.5
"Closer To The Sun" is a solid release and that's about it. While Slightly Stoopid does pump out some great, catchy tunes, and solid guitar work, the album runs too long and the songs all blend into one another after awhile. Also, singers Miles Doughty and Kyle McDonald's faux-Jamaican accents become very tiring (they're from California). However there are some excellent songs on here like the fast, aggressive "Nothin Over Me" and "Righteous Man", "Bandelero" and "Babylon is Falling" which show the band's heavy reggae influence, or the jammer finale "Open Road" whose hidden track features dazzling guitar riffage. Overall, this is a great CD but nothing ground-breaking.

The Strokes Room on Fire4.0
One of the most under-appreciated album of this decade. No, Room On Fire is not Is This It? but it sure isn't a sophomore slump album. One thing noteable on this album that isn't on Is This It? is more agression. "Reptilia" is easily the heaviest song they've ever written with guitar lines weaving through each other and Julian's voice on the verge of screaming, it's pure brilliance. This album matches their debut's emotion and the lyrics are equally as strong. Overall a very solid album from The Strokes.

Jason Mraz Waiting For My Rocket To Come3.5
This is kind of a guilty pleasure for me but, I've got to give Jason Mraz props. He's a talented dude. His songwriting is strong and consistent, he does a solid job on the guitar and vocally, he's one of the best male singers today. While tihs is mostly a pop album, some songs have tinges of country, rap, reggae and jam to them. Highlight track "Waiting For My Rocket To Come" features Mraz rapping/singing over a funky beat with some nice banjo playing. "On Love, In Sadness" also borders on country and has some excellent lyrics. Overall, a great debut from a talented young man.

Deep Purple Deep Purple In Rock4.0
This is personally my favorite Deep Purple album. It is the first with the Mark II line-up, featuring Ian Gillian on vocals and Roger Glover on bass. From the fast-paced explosion of "Speed King", to Gillian's screams on "Bloodsucker", to Blackmore's intense shredding on the 10 minute epic "Child In Time", Deep Purple established themselves as one metal's godfathers in 1970 with this release.
