| It definitely sounds like The Sword but there's certainly a different feel to this one. Slightly less heavy and might remind one of some 70's hard rock/prog. Still a ton of great riffs with a new sense of melody to go with it so it's another excellent addition to their already great discography. |

| Oh god, Metallica infamous album where they cut their hair and mellowed out their sound. Well I'm one of the few who actually really enjoys this album. By no means is this up to par with their early stuff but I mean cmon few bands ever come close to touching their 80's stuff. This still has some really great songs like Bleeding Me, The Outlaw Torn, Until it Sleeps, and Hero of the Day. A bunch of the other songs have a pretty cool southern rock groove to em as well. It does get pretty boring after further listens, hence the 3.5 and not 4 rating. People may hate it and live in the past, but seriously, it's not THAT bad people. It's just different and nobody likes change. So yea, pretty good stuff. Don't try and act cool by hating it. |

| Imagine if Bruce Springsteen and Against Me! fucked, this would be the resulting offspring. Every song here is catchy and energetic and full of lyrics that send you into a nostalgic state. Even though this is only their debut album they show a lot of maturity from a song writing standpoint. The vocals are gruff but endearing, and supply the songs with a lot of energy and emotion. The rest of the band does their job fine. There's honestly not a bad song on here. I would reccomend listening to "We Came to Dance" and if you like that then you'll immediately fall in love with the rest of this album. |

| Two songs clocking in at 32 minutes and it's pretty incredible. gone are any of his bizarre filler tracks and all we're left at are two long jams showcasing Buckethead's guitar playing. If I was to ever give a 5 to a Buckethead release it would be this, but alas it does end too abruptly and it's sometimes hard to want to sit through 10 and 20 minute songs back to back. But the quality is there. |

| At just a little over 30 minutes this is Buckethead's shortest album, but crammed into these 30 minutes are everything that we've grown to adore from Mr. B. You have those hair raising epic moments (Lebrontron), you've got quirky avant-garde songs (Picking the Feathers), and also some downright funky tracks with a little bass slap action (Barnyard Banties). So to summarize, in only 30 minutes Buckethead has covered his entire career into one album. |

| An album that I think flies under the radar when it comes to the chilis. This is my favorite rhcp album and it took a while for it to grown on me because of the apparent lack of funkiness to be had. But what you get here instead are songs with breathtaking melodies, incredible background vocals, and john frusciante taking center stage which is never a bad thing. This is very different than anything they've done before or after but it is definately one to check out and let grown on you. |

| Everything I like about black metal can be found here. The production is standard for the genre but not unlistenable, the atmosphere reminds me of those coldest winter nights. I would compare this to Dissection except this is probably more raw in my opinion. It has an epic atmosphere to it that few other black metal outfits can reach. Glad I gave this a chance and to any fan of melodic black metal or just black metal in general, this is essential. |

| I throw the word epic around a lot but this time it is completely justified. All the songs are are longer than 10 minutes except for the last track which is an acoustic number. These guys combine black and folk metal with viking themes and create a sound that is larger than life. I feel like I'm caught up in epic viking battles every time I hear this. If you're not turned off by long songs and folk elements in your metal then you'll probably love this. |

| May be the best Buckethead album. The man in the KFC bucket has released a collection of songs that would remind you of Colma or Electric Tears, except this is so much better. It isn't drawn out like Electric Tears and overall, the songs are better than in Colma. Beautiful guitar playing at its finest. |

| My favorite Rush album, Hemispheres is 36 minutes of prog done right. You've got the epic 18 minute opener Cygnus X-1 Book 2 which is a sequel to the first Cygnus song found on their previous album. The next couple tracks are shorter but still retain a proggy feel. Circumstances is a hard rocker and The Trees is a pretty tranquil peace that has a nice section in the middle where Neil Peart gets to shine. The album closes with a 9 minute instrumental where each member gets to shine, especially guitarist Alex Lifeson who usually gets lost in the disscussion because of Peart and Lee. Sometimes prog albums are way too long but at only 36 minutes this makes for a quick entertaining listen. If you're into Prog music in any way shape or form you owe it to yourself to get this. |

| Not what I was expecting at all but still amazing. This is a welcome change after the lackluster effort that was NWFT (at least by their standards). There's a great, almost industrial sounding vibe going on. The guitar tones are perfect and this album overall is more atmospheric than anything they've done. Claudio's voice is still top notch and there are still hooks galore. Overall this a great step forward for the band after some people were probably afraid that they fell in a rut after NWFT. |

| Edge of Sanity Crimson | 5.0 |
| The pinnacle of progressive death metal. Crimson is a 40 minute track full of the heaviest riffs you'll ever hear and is a long and winding journey that tells the story of a world where nobody is able to concieve children until one is finally born and brings hope to the world. I think knowing the story really makes this a greater experience. Dan Swano's growls are fantastic and he has a pretty damn good singing voice as well. I'd compare this to Opeth in some way in that you get the heavy moments mixed with clean melodic moments that sound more like 70's progressive rock. The production's a little murkier than Opeth but I think it's perfect for this album. Crimson is a breathtaking experience and not once does it ever drag which I can't say too many people could pull off with a 10 minute song, let alone a 40 minute one. |
| Edge of Sanity The Spectral Sorrows | 4.5 |
| Black Sabbath Heaven and Hell | 4.5 |
The best Sabbath album hands down. Dio is a far superior vocalist than Ozzy ever was and he really shines here and the lyrics are a million times better as well. Besides the obvious improvement in the vocal department the music is superior as well. Iommi really shines and the songwriting is just phenomenal. Sabbath hit the top of their game here and unfortunately never reached it again, but this is still a classic and every metal fan owes it to themselves to listen to this.
RIP Dio |

This really was a precursor to the new wave movement of the 80's and you could view that as a bad thing but just know that the origins of new wave were very good and this is one of the catchiest and funnest albums you'll ever hear. |

| I like this better than Panzerfaust because the vocals aren't as high in the mix and are therefore less irritating. This is probably my third or fourth favorite of theirs. At least check out the track Earth's Last Picture if anything. |

| Death Cube K Torn from Black Space | 3.5 |
| Death Cube K is a side project from Buckethead with the name of the project being an anagram for Buckethead. With Buckethead you would expect some sweet riffs, some solos, and some weird stuff. Well here you don't get any of that really (though it is weird) for this is a dark ambient album. If a guitar is used it's only here to add to the creepy atmosphere. This is some pretty dark stuff and is a good listen on big headphones in the dark. You could give it a shot, just don't expect any shredding or finger tapping here. |

| Do you like Burzum? If so, then do I have an album for you. If you handed this to me and said it was a previously unreleased Burzum album I would totally believe you. This one man project hails from Germany and he creates some excellent atmosphere in this depressing masterpiece. Only thing keeping this at a 4 is that at 59 minutes it can drag a little. If you like what you're hearing and are ok with a little unoriginality then you should enjoy this. |

| I have stayed far away from Weezer because well...they blow. So when I heard they didn't always suck I asked a friend which album to pick up and he pointed me here and wow...they used to be good. This is a pretty awesome listen that shows the good side of Weezer and it sort of pisses me off that they went from this to the Beverly Hills Weezer we have today. |

| I'm finally hearing this for the first time and this might be my favorite album this year. Great indie rock stuff with powerful vocals. Some songs are angry, some sweet, but always powerful (and the word of the soundoff is...). There are also some very catchy moments that will have you bobbing your head and singing in your head for hours. This just gives off a great energy and if you're looking for one of the better releases of '09 then look no further. |

| Edge of Sanity Purgatory Afterglow | 4.5 |
| The Mars Volta Frances the Mute | 5.0 |
| Favorite Mars Volta album by far. Every movement on this album is just astounding, its really a special experience to listen to it straight through. Only downside is maybe a bit too much ambient wise especially at the beginning of Miranda, but the rest is so good that it doesn't really drag down the album at all. |

| HORSE the band Desperate Living | 4.5 |
| Desperate Living is Horse the Band's most focused release to date. It's still pretty quircky and goofy but it seems like a more serious effort for the most part. The synthy nintendo parts are much more prominant than in the past and they really keep the songs interesting. But in all actuality, even if there were no synths this would still be a kick ass album, but the nintendo moments make this more unique than every other post-hardcore or metalcore band out there. The vocals aren't really too different from past releases but I always enjoyed em so that's a plus. All in all this is by far Horses best release so far and probably in my top 5 for 2009. |
| Brand New Daisy | 4.0 |
| Nirvana Bleach | 4.5 |
| Nirvana at its rawest. Bleach is an album that's a far cry from the polished pop friendly album Nevermind. Here you find a lot of distortion, aggression, and some intense vocals from the great Kurt Cobain. The songs are simple and the lyrics most of the time don't make a lot of sense but that doesn't take anything away from this album because it's pure energy. When I think of Nirvana I think of this album rather than Nevermind or In Utero. There are still songs that would hint towards the radio hit era Nirvana would find themselves in later on like "About a Girl" but overall this is a very primal record that shows the true roots of Nirvana and the grunge genre in general. |
| Wintersleep Welcome To The Night Sky | 4.0 |
| City of Caterpillar City of Caterpillar | 4.5 |
| Pretty intense screamo/hardcore that's not so unsimilar from Circle Takes the Square. The one thing I absolutely love about these guys though is their longer songs which take on a post-rock esque structure and just build up and build up before exploding. You can definately sense the power and emotion pouring through this one. One of my favorite "core" albums ever and I think it's a shame that these guys didn't release more material because I don't think I could ever get tired of this stuff. Recomended to any fan of Circle Takes the Square or Hardcore music in general. |

| Smog The Doctor Came at Dawn | 3.5 |
| The Smashing Pumpkins Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness | 5.0 |
| Is there some filler? Yes there is, but much like The Beatle's double epic White album, Mellon Collie just has too much greatness to not be considered a classic. You've got angry Billy, lovestruck Billy, melancholic Billy, and angsty Billy all here to please your ears. The standouts for me are the beautiful tracks like Tonight, Tonight and Thirty-Three which utilize orchestras and acoustice guitars. But the heavier tracks like Zero and XYU are excellent as well with their laser beam sounding guitars and Billy's nasaly/aggressive vocal delivery. It's amazing how one song can lull you to sleep almost (not in a bad way) and then the next song delivers a roundhouse to the face. All in all this is the pinnacle of the Smashing Pumpkins career for sadly it all seemed to go downhill from here. But rejoice for the fact that they gave this masterpiece to the world before their muscial nosedive. |
| Korn Untouchables | 4.5 |
| A while ago I read a review for Linkin Park's Meteora and he gave it a 5. Before disregarding this guys rating I saw what he had to say and he actually made a good point about it being a "personal" album. Well his feelings for that album are pretty much the same feelings I have for Untouchables. This album was "the" album for me when i was 13-15. My taste in music changed dramatically after that but I then realized that I still loved this album. Last week I listend to it again and I enjoyed it immensly. There's no reason this should be a 4.5. It's not techincally great, Jon's whining as much as ever, and the lyrics sometimes are just abysmall. Yet, I can't help but absolutely love this album. I completely understand why it could be hated but there's just something about it that I can't comprehend. Like I couldn't get in an argument with somebody explaining why it's good because it isn't. That may sound confusing but it makes sense to me. All in all I love this album and I don't blame you if you dont. The end. |

| An album with only bass, drums, and vocals may sound boring but this is pretty tight. There's only two songs that both clock in over 10 minutes but the albums seems to fly by. The bass and drums are just in the perfect groove with one another and the vocals are very hypnotic. Great album to just put on and space out for a bit. Not rated any higher because there's only so much you can do with bass, drums, and vocals, but these guys still manage to keep it interesting. |

| Nowhere near as bad as people would have you believe. Being a life long Kiss fan I stayed away from this one just because of the horror stories I heard. Maybe that's the reason I was expecting a heaping pile of shit and what I got was actually listenable. This is Kiss trying to prove they have artistic merit and can write a song that's not about suckin and fuckin. Needless to say some of the tracks are terrible (under the rose, mr. blackwell) but there are some true hard rocking gems to be found as well (The Oath, I, Dark Light, Escape from the Island). This would be the last album Kiss would release that would alienate their fans before turning things around with their next hard rocking record, Creatures of the Night. |

| Coheed and Cambria In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3 | 5.0 |
| As an avid Coheed and Cambria fan I love every single one of their albums. But this one gives me the most mixed reactions. It contains some of my absolute favorite songs including the selft titled epic, the crowing, the light and the glass, and 2113. However this album has the most filler I believe of any of their albums. The Velorium Campers i think is their weakest suite and I hardly listen to the radio friendly A Favor House Atlantic. Yet through it all I still find this album to be incredible. It perfectly mixes their epic progness with their pop-punk catchiness. This album is still a mystery to me after all these years because some days it's my absolute favorite album by them, and some days i think it's their most underwhelming effort. But trust me, this is definately something special that contains those hair raising and sing along moments you would expect from, imo, the greatest band on earth. |

| One of my favorite death metal albums ever...the riffs are bad ass and i love the vocals not being your traditional death growl but more of a throaty yell. The drummer is a beast throughout. The songs also incorportate some good tempo changes so its not just a thousand mph the whole time. Also I dare anyone to listen to the chorus of misanthrope and not bang your head viciously. Recommended to any fan of metal in general. |

| Buckethead The Elephant Man's Alarm Clock | 4.5 |
| One of my favorite Buckethead releases. This album showcases all of Bucketheads strenghts. There's the shredding and epic solos that we've all come to expect from him, and also there are those weird moments he does. But unlike some of his other albums the weird tracks are few and really aren't "that" strange. Final Wars, the Lurker's at the Threshold, and Bird With a Hole in the Stomach are my personal favs. But all the songs here have something exciting to offer. A must hear for all Buckethead fans. |
| The Smashing Pumpkins Siamese Dream | 4.5 |
| Melvins Houdini | 4.0 |
| Sonic Youth Daydream Nation | 4.5 |
| Ugly and beautiful at the same time. Daydream Nation will lull you into a sense of comfort before unleashing chaotic walls of sound and feedback. Very melancholic and strange. Teen Age Riot is the best song on here but every track here could be considered a highlight. |
| Buckethead Bucketheadland | 3.5 |
| Children of Bodom Follow the Reaper | 4.0 |
| Immortal At the Heart of Winter | 3.5 |
| Black metal that reminds me of dissection. Great riffs throughout make this a solid effort. Actually everything from a musical standpoint is top notch. However the vocals are absolutely horrible. I'm used to black metal vocalists but this is laughable bad. Sounds like the guy is belching. Put in some hellish shrieks or growls instead of the belching and I'd knock this up to a 4 at least. |
| Davwuh Dystopia | 3.5 |
| The Smashing Pumpkins Adore | 4.0 |
| The Pumpkins' "techno" album. Adore is full of electronic beats but that's not to say it's danceable or anything. In fact this takes on a more gothic vibe than anything. After Siamese Dream and Mellon Collie there was bound to be a let down but that doesn't mean this isn't a great album. Tear is absolutely incredible and Ava Adore utilizes the electronic beats very well without sounding mechanized. The album flows very well and is always a good listen but don't expect a classic here. |

| Epic post-rock with electronic beats, keyboards, and guitars. Vocals are used but are not used enough in my opinion cuz the guy's got a really great voice. This is really beautiful stuff. Any fan of post-rock should give this a spin. |

| Alcest Souvenirs D'Un Autre Monde | 4.5 |
| Very beautiful and haunting. I've heard this classified as Black Metal but the only thing "black metal" about it is its lo-fi production, the guitar playing at points, and the atmosphere it gives off. I've heard it compared to Ulver's Bergtatt, but other than its beauty and atmosphere there's not many similarities between the two in my opinion. There's no shrieking or shredding and not much as far blast beats or anything. It really is an album you can just sit back to and enjoy the beauty and mood it gives off. In fact there's really not a bad moment on here but it can get a little repetative at times because each song basically follows the same formula. Regardless of that this is still a truely spectacular listening experience. Just don't go into it expecting a traditional black metal record. |
| Mirrorthrone Carriers of Dust | 4.0 |
| Queens of the Stone Age Queens of the Stone Age | 4.5 |
| About as close sounding to Kyuss as QOTSA ever got. Josh Homme really shines on this album. His riffs are still heavy and have an awesome groove to em and his voice just oozes cool. Out of all their albums I go back to this one way more than the others. This is really great to put in your car and cruise to. If you like QOTSA and haven't heard this yet you need to. |

| Radiohead The Bends | 4.0 |
| Radiohead at their most alternative. The songs are here are fairly simple, at least compared to what came later in their career, and are very accessible. Yet despite the lack of experimentation in the studio this is as solid as any of their albums in my book. With it's hook laden straightforward nature, The Bends are right up there with OK Computer and Kid A in my book. A few filler songs drag it down a little bit but some of their best songs (Fake Plastic Trees, Street Spirit, My Iron Lung) can be found. For somebody looking to get into this band this is the album I'd point them to. |
| Cradle of Filth Dusk... and Her Embrace | 3.0 |
| The Mars Volta Octahedron | 4.5 |
| Yes this is better than De-Loused. I love The Mars Volta for their guitar wankery and pretensiosness (sp?) but I have to admit that after Bedlam I was worried. Well this eased my worries because this is the Volta's strongest effort in years. They took away most of the "noise" and replaced it with some really well written and stripped down songs. Cedrics voice is as good as I think it's ever been and the music is very spacey. I heard this was their interpretation of an acoustic album. Though it's not at all acoustic it's definately stripped down and what you get is the bare bones of what makes The Mars Volta so special. They're no longer hiding their skills behind noise, and are finally showing they're capable of writing well thought out songs, and not just musical exercises. Favorite album of '09 by the way. |
| Radiohead Amnesiac | 4.0 |
| Radiohead In Rainbows | 4.5 |
| Many people would probably disagree with me when I say this is the best Radiohead album. The argument about which is Radiohead's best album will probably rage on forever, but that doesn't take away from the fact that this is my most listened to Radiohead album. It features everything that's good about Radiohead with a diverse range of instruments and Thom Yorke's haunting vocals. I think the second disc however takes a little bit away from the whole package though No Flowers is one of my favorite tracks on here. Regardless of the second disc, In Rainbows is a diverse album with some of the most beautiful music on it that I have ever heard. |

| Battle Of Mice A Day of Nights | 4.0 |
| A Day of Nights is an album I was unprepared for on the first listen. I was expecting some doom metal with some operatic femal vocals. I couldn't have been more wrong. Battle of Mice is a band that musically is very similar to say Isis or the Red Sparrowes, but their "x" factor is the superbly done femal vocals of Julie Christmas. She speaks in the most innocent and child like tone ever while reciting some truely disturbing lyrics. Sometimes the lyrics don't even seem to make sense but at the same time you feel uneasy hearing them, almost like you shouldn't be listening in on what she's saying. Then there's her otherside where she gives some of the most deafening and emotional yells ever. It's a powerful performance by miss Christmas and I gotta say that without her this may have just been an average instrumental album. So I reccomend this to anyone looking for some eerie and unsetteling tunes, just don't listen to it alone in the dark k? |

| I listened to this album a hell of a lot as a kid so it has a special place in my heart. There is nothing that really stands out too much music wise but it is a pretty fun listen. With 15 tracks this was Kiss' longest album so that means that there are a lot of filler tracks but there are some true gems like Betrayed, You Love Me To Hate You, and the very popular Forever. This would be a 2.5 or less if it didn't have a special place in my heart however. I'd only reccomend this if you're a true Kiss fan. |

| Buckethead Inbred Mountain | 4.0 |
| Inbred Mountain is another effort from Buckethead who seems to release a few new albums every year. On this effort you get that vintage classic buckethead sound but you also get some just downright strange moments as well. Johnny Be Slunk is an 8 minute schizophrenics induced shred fest, the song is constantly changing going from wah induced palm muting almost groovy moments to grind influenced drumming and total sensless shredding. Some songs are just downright strange and I don't listen to those much like Advance to the Summit which is essentially Buckethead trying to produce the strangest sounds he can with his guitar. But it's when Buckethead stops the strange goofy noises and just plays that you realy get enjoyment out of this. Plastination Station is a song that showcases everything that is good with Buckethead because you get that great guitar sound and it builds up into just epic awesomeness. I would reccomend this to any Buckethead fan but for a someone new to his work this one still might be a little strange to get into. |

| Very nice Post Rock. It sounds very similar to Explosions in the Sky at points until when you least expect it there is scream/yell that sounds far away and the music explodes before dying down again into a beautiful melody. I like the use of the double bass on the drums throughout the album as well. I would almost go as far to say it is a little post-hardcore influenced as well. Any fan of post rock should check this out |

| This is a black metal classic that should be included in any metal fans collection. Black Metal is still very hit or miss with me in that some of it I absolutely love and some of it I can't even stand to listen to. But this is so good that even if you're not a big Black Metal fan you can enjoy this. It's got that atmosphere that you would expect but the production is very clear and you hear the instruments very well. The guitars are spot on and the drummer keeps things interesting instead of just blast beating away. The vocals are done very well in that I think it has far more emotion in them than your typical black metal vocalist. Overall this is very near a classic for me. Night's Blood is the obvious highlight of the album though all the songs are great here. This is definately something I don't have to force myself to get through like some black metal, it's really that good. |

| It's hard to describe the effect Tommy has on me. I had always thought that Quadrophenia was the definitive Who rock opera, boy how wrong I was. Tommy is a journey more than just a collection of songs. From the moment Overture starts to the reprise of Listening To You on We're Not Gonna Take It, Tommy takes you to a different place. As individual songs it would never work, but the whole is greater than it's seperate parts in this case. Pete Townshend created a complete masterpiece here and set the standard for which all other "rock operas" were to be measured. |

| Aww that's too bad. Just when I was beginning to fall in love with Death Cab they have to release this? I Will Possess Your Heart gave me so much hope for the rest of this but it didn't live up to it. It feels very half assed and there's just not to many moments that stick with me after listening all the way through. Still better than a lot of stuff out there but nothing note worthy. |
| Bon Iver For Emma, Forever Ago | 4.5 |
| I would easily put this up there for album of the year talk. This is absolutely amazing and you can just feel the emotion that is pouring through it. I bought this on impulse and now I'm so glad I did. I had this at a 4 but that just didn't do it justice. The layered vocals work really well and the bareness of the music gives it this great atmosphere and makes this one very personal album. I wouldn't consider myself much of a fan of folk but I love this and would recommend it to any music lover. Flume and Skinny Love are my favorites but every track here is a standout. |
| Ulver Bergtatt - Et eeventyr i 5 capitler | 5.0 |
| Black metal for me is very hit or miss, and bergtatt hit it out of the park. This is the perfect black metal album in my book. Garm's got the voice of an angel and layers his vocals to give off a choral effect, but he also has the more traditional black metal shrieks and does them with flying colors. Musically this is perfect for what Ulver was trying to convey. It's not just blast beats and chainsaw guitars, the production is great and the instruments are very full of sound but still have a great atmosphere to them. It's not over-produced or anything but it's not like Nattens Madridgal or Darkthrone is what I'm getting at. There are also many great acoustic moments here that Ulver would later explore with their next record. All in all this is not only the best black metal I've ever heard but actually one of the better albums I've ever heard period. I can't see how anybody who loves music could not enjoy this. |

| I usually consider White Pony to be the ultimate Deftones album but this might have just dethroned White Pony becuase this is simply amazing. It mixes beauty and heaviness perfectly, and often within the same song. Chino's vocals can be soothing and angelic then suddenly switch to his torchered screams. It has everything the Deftones are known for (atmosphere, heaviness, beauty, darkness) and take it all to another level. Overall this is the perfect Deftones album. |

| Some true gems are to be found on this b-side/rarity compilation. Tracks like Alone, Sad, Yellow Ledbetter, Undone, and Last Kiss are some of Pearl Jam's best songs that probably should have made it on some of their studio albums. There's quite a bit of filler but that's to be expected given the fact that it's a double album of rarities. All in all this is a great release and is a better listen than some of their actual albums. |

But one day on a long drive I popped this bad boy in and for some reason it just clicked on so many levels. It's harsh and beautiful at the same time and I'm glad I gave it some time to sink in. |

| Sigur Ros ( ) | 5.0 |
| This is one of the most beautiful albums I've ever heard. The vocals throughout the album are in a made up language called "hopelandic" and really just repeat the same sounding syllables throughout, but somehow they never get old and contain an amazing amount of emotion in them. It's like you know the emotion he's feeling even though he's not really sayin words. Musically this reminds me of winter. It's like walking around at night after it just snowed and the moon is shining on the newly fallen snow. That may sound kind of fairy like but it's just what I think of. None of the songs have actual titles but each one is unique in it's own right and either leave you feeling melancholic or hopeful. It's amazing how Untitled 3 and 4 seem so cheerful yet 6 and 7 seem so depressing and subtle. All in all ( ) is truely a magnificant album and I think most people should at least give it a spin at some point. |

| Coheed and Cambria No World for Tomorrow | 4.0 |
| Probably my least favorite Coheed album but it's still pretty damn good. "No World for Tomorrow" and "The End Complete 3" are beyond epic and are some of their best songs in their entire catolag. The weakness lies in that this album seems like a watered down version of GA1. The End Completes are no where near as good as the Willing Wells and Justice in Murder is an obvious filler track. But overall this is still a great listen. You still have Claudio wailing away, you got some tasty riffs, great guitar playing (leads, riffs, and solos wise) and it still retains a proggy feel from their last album. I'm hoping the prequal album will be way better than this but if Coheed decideds to put out albums of this magnitude for the rest of their career you won't be hearing me complain. |

| Where it all began for Korn. I gotta say, in my angrier years I was a Korn fanboy and this was my favorite album by em. Years have gone by, my musical taste has matured a lot, and im not the angry young man I once was but you know what...I still can spin this album and enjoy it. It doesn't seem fake or contrived when it comes to Johnathan Davis, and I just love the groove the rest of the band displays. Blind still gets me pumped and is the highlight for me. Korn may have gone way down hill since their debut, and they may be regarded as a joke nowadays, but it should be known that they didn't always suck, becuase they released this. |

| Stadium Arcadium is a double album full of great material but like most double albums there's quite a bit of filler. I listened to this so much the summer after it came out that to this day I still can't really listen to it but that doesn't mean the songs aren't great. Every sound they've ever done can be found here. Charlie is a funk fest, Slow Cheetah is an acoustic number, Readymade is a full blown rocker, and everything in between is offered here. Favorite tracks personally are: Wet Sand, Charlie, Especially in Michigan, and Turn it Again. Fans of the Chili's will love this, and last I checked that was a lot of people. |
| KISS Animalize | 4.0 |
| The Prize Fighter Inferno My Brother's Blood Machine | 4.0 |
| Foo Fighters Skin and Bones | 4.0 |
| The Foo Fighters are one of my favorite mainstream rock bands and some may say that their music gets old pretty fast. Well if you give Skin and Bones a spin you'll realize that the Foo's are very capable of creating exciting and never dull music. This mainly acoustic driven live album has all the energy and excitement the Foo Fighters embody combined with interesting instrumentation and arrangements of their material. Dave's voice is top notch and actually everything musically is done with superior effort. The only downside is that the crowd is WAY too high in the mix. On their softer songs sometimes all you can hear is girls screaming at the top of their lungs. Especially on Everlong, which may be the best performance here, is almost ruined because the crowd singing along and screaming drowns out the beauty of this song. It captures the excitement of the album well but when I'm listening, I'm listening for the music and not to feel like I'm at a live show, especially a stripped down acoustic one. Anyways this is essential for any Foo Fighters fan and even if you're not, give it a shot, it may suprise you. |

| I reccomend this to anyone I meet who hasn't really listened to The Beatles before and every time that person becomes a fan. A remix album so to say that feels very natural. Songs are combined and spliced with other songs that create a colorful palette of the Beatles discography. Any Beatles fan who is skeptical about getting a complitation album shouldn't worry because this makes those classic Beatles tunes even better (if that's possible). All in all this is a fresh outlook on some old material and s The Beatles in a special way. |
| Metallica Master of Puppets | 5.0 |
| Giving this a 5 is almost saying that you are ignorant to good music. People think that if you like Metallica then you're a little fanboy who hasn't branched out and listened to anything good yet. Well I've listened to Opeth, I've listened to Sigur Ros, and I've listened to Maudlin of the Well, and guess what...this is still a 5 for me. Not a weak song here. The riffs can be heavy, or they shred away like none other. James Hetfields voice is right is the perfect mixture of his kill em all raspy voice and his black album godly voice. The title track is a thrash classic, Sanitarium is up there with Fade to Black and One as far as their "ballads" go, and Orion is one of the greatest songs I've ever heard. And there are still 5 more songs of this quality to go! Master of Puppets is the pinnacle of Metallica's career. Say what you will about them now, but this album has stood the test of time and has earned every ounce of praise it has gotten. |
| Nirvana MTV Unplugged in New York | 5.0 |
| Pink Floyd Wish You Were Here | 5.0 |
| Godspeed You! Black Emperor F♯ A♯ ∞ | 5.0 |
| A soundtrack to the apocalypse. This is the most eerie yet beautiful thing I've ever heard. Put this on in the dark and drift away to the sounds of the end of the world. The moment you hear the words "the car is on fire, but there's no driver at the wheel" you will be in for a bleak experience that somehow leaves you optimistic at the end. Words can't really describe the genius of this piece of art. This is one of the few albums that I think everybody should hear at some point. |
| Pink Floyd The Wall | 5.0 |
| Pink Floyd Is There Anybody Out There? | 5.0 |
| This is basically the live version of the Wall and it is better than the studio version in my opinion. The solos are longer, theres songs on here that aren't on the original release like "What Shall We Do and The Last Few Bricks", and you can sense the excitement that must have been felt when attending this spectacle of an event. Musically everything is performed perfectly and the vocals have a lot more life in them than on the studio release. Sometimes, for me at least, the crowd is way too high in the mix on live albums and it takes away from the performance, but that is not the case here. The crowd is heard but it never gets in the way of the music. The beginning of Run Like Hell is a perfect use of crowd in the mix when Roger Waters is taunting them to make noise and "have a good time", but when the band plays you barely hear them which is a good thing. This live release of The Wall has probably been listened to by me more than the original release. Best live album I've ever heard. |
| Coheed and Cambria The Second Stage Turbine Blade | 5.0 |
| This album is perfect. Not one bad song on here. This is before Coheed would delve into metal and prog. The music here is pretty raw and sounds like a mix of pop-punk and post-hardcore with an epic feel to it. Claudio's voice is also much higher than in later releases but there is so much emotion pouring out of his voice that it's hard for me not to get goosebumps on certain parts of this album. However the songs retain their epic quality. The chorus' are anthemic and powerful. Powerful really is the only world I can describe this album as. Every moment is a highlight. Perfect. |
| Coheed and Cambria From Fear Through the Eyes of Madness | 5.0 |
| This is right on the verge of being a 5. If not for a couple weaker songs it surely would be. Welcome Home is a perfect song, Ten Speed is a great hard rocker, The Suffering is their best radio friendly song, and The Willing Well's are some of the greatest pieces of music I've ever heard. It would take forever to describe the sound but just know that it's proggy/heavy and if not for SSTB this would be my favorite Coheed album. |
