Fallen(more) »rank: 650by: Evanescence
Our review: :\N :The Daredevil soundtrack provided a nice boost for this previously unknown quartet from Little Rock, Arkansas. Evanescence’s songs 'My Immortal' and the imposing 'Bring Me to Life' are clear standouts in the film, mainly because they work so well with the dramatic, eerie undertones of the storyline. They reappear here on the band’s debut, alongside a selection of similarly brooding tracks that evoke pensive artists like Tori Amos and the Cranberries. Vocalist Amy Lee has the kind of voice that can cause weeks of insomnia, but on songs like 'Tourniquet' and 'Haunted' she belies the music’s sinister mood with evenhanded spirituality, ... Detail |

The Open Door(more) »rank: 626by: Evanescence
Our review:Album Description:The follow-up to their Multi-Platinum Debut Featuring the hit single 'Call Me When You're Sober' :There's nothing like a breakup to focus your muse. This follow-up to the stunning, multi-platinum Fallen was penned as singer Amy Lee's troubled romance with bandmate Ben Moody was spiraling out of control, impelling her to craft an anxious record full of recriminations, revelation, and self-flagellation, as she questioned everything that kept her whole. It's a fascinating journey for the listener as she ventures into her own personal heart of darkness, her stricken, perfect voice suspended on an unsteady precipice between breakdown and breakthrough. Despite the loss ... Detail |
Season of Poison(more) »rank: 1035by: Shiny Toy Guns
Our review:Album Description:'Season of Poison' is the highly anticipated sophomore album from Shiny Toy Guns. The album is the follow up to their critically acclaimed Grammy nominated debut record We Are Pilots which was released in 2006. The band spent the better half of 2 years on and off the road progressing their dance/rock and electronic roots. Once again producing the album by themselves, founding members Chad Petree (vocals, guitar) and Jeremy Dawson (synthesizer, bass) used 2008 technology to marry dynamic late-70's style synthesizer programming with face-erasing stoner rock; gently spreading this over layer upon layer of ethnic and tribal rhythms. Not to mention ... Detail |

The Cure - Greatest Hits(more) »rank: 1577by: The Cure
Our review: :As Greatest Hits--and particularly the busking pavement jazz of 'Lovecats'--reminds us, the best Cure singles were very often tangential exercises; they offered a goth-free playtime divergence from some of the weightier studiousness of those early albums. Or, as smudged frontman Robert Smith says of this 18-track collection, 'Songs that are sung with a smile.' This wasn't always true--witness the refrigerated fogginess of the classic 'A Forest,' the Blair Witch Project of its day. What this compilation does is focus attention on the Cure's perennial unpredictability--the breathless claustrophobia of 'Close to Me,' the New Order-lite of 'The Walk,' the brass- section embellished thrust of ...

Godspeed On The Devil's Thunder(Special Edition 2 CD)(more) »rank: 3781by: Cradle of Filth
Our review: :2 CD Special Edition. After 8 menacing albums, the kings of black metal return with their most dastardly tale yet. Chronicling the story of the world's first serial killer, French nobleman and soldier of Joan of Arc, Gilles De Rais. Like they had done with the story of Elizabeth Bathory, Cradle of Filth weave a tale of murder, the occult, and sinister deed around their trademark metal sound. Fueled by breakneck speed, crushing guitars, and haunting vocals- the band has delivered their hardest most aggressive and chilling piece yet. This is the 2CD special edition. Detail |

Good Times, Bad Times ...Ten Years of Godsmack(more) »rank: 2141by: Godsmack
Our review:Album Description:Godsmack was founded in February '95, when lead vocalist Sully Erna decided to step out from behind the drum kit to front the band with bassist Robbie Merrill, guitarist Tony Rombola and drummer Tommy Stewart (drummer Shannon Larkin joined in June 2002, replacing Tommy Stewart). These Boston-based rockers have sold well over 8 million records on their first four albums. Godsmack has more top ten Active Rock Radio singles than ANY other group history. They have charted an amazing total of 13 hits with five #1's including 'Speak,' their hit from Godsmack IV and 'Awake,' 'Straight Out of Line' as well as ... Detail |
The Heart of Everything(more) »rank: 2006by: Within Temptation
Our review:Album Description:US version includes two bonus tracks, 'Stand My Ground' and 'What Have You Done' (Extended Version). 2007 release from the Dutch Gothic Metal band who have been pounding the Metal pavement with their unique brand of hard-edged Metal for over a decade. Their sound is the perfect combination of guitar-driven Hard Rock and ambitious Symphonic Metal. Underneath the aggressive wall of sound lies a secret beauty that can often be dark and uninviting. 13 tracks including 'Howling', 'Frozen' and 'Final Destination'. Detail |
