Hard to imagine that a little soundtrack from a little movie would top Alicia Keys and take over the numero uno spot on the Billboard album charts.
The fantastic soundtrack, I should again mention the movie is fantastic as well, features some killer tracks which include Sonic Youth’s cover of The Carpenters “Superstar”, Cat Power’s cover of “Sea […]

“Blow Up The Outside World” was the third single from Soundgarden’s final album, 1996’s Down on the Upside.
This song may have been played out, but it still kicks you in the face, like most of Soundgarden’s songs. It’s perfect to blast when you’re having one of those days where just want to tell everybody off, […]

How could Beck make 1996’s Odelay any better?
Well, how about giving the classic album a bit of that deluxe edition treatment.
So, what does the deluxe edition add to to the album that already spawned “Devil’s Haircut”, “Where It’s At”, “The New Pollution”, as well as the personal favorites, “Novacane” and “Ramshackle”? How about 19 more […]

In 1985, Sweet signs a record deal with Columbia.
Columbia dropped Sweet after his 1986 debut Inside flopped […]
Disclaimer: Before people jump to conclusions, I just want to say that I like the Chili Peppers. They were the first band that I saw live, and they have sick musicians in the band. However, I just don’t care for Anthony Kiedis, I don’t loathe him or anything, I just think he’s not all that […]
This song is defiantly a guilty pleasure of mine. It’s almost 100% pop, but that actually works for it, because it’s still a great song
Even though it’s a bit poppy, it’s still a downer of a song. The way Johnston delivers it vocally, it makes you really for him. To me, it sounds like it’s about […]
