Viva La Vida(more) »rank: 5by: Coldplay
Our review: : Coldplay Photos Amazon.com:To say there has been a lot of anticipation for Coldplay’s fourth album, Viva La Vida, is an understatement. Having enlisted legendary leftfield producer Brian Eno, borrowed their album title from a painting by renowned Mexican artist Frida Kahlo and made tantalising remarks about sonic reinvention, the world has been curious (to say the least) to hear what the ‘new’ Coldplay might sound like. Viva La Vida definitely makes some departures from the band’s usual formula, which happens to be one of the most commercially successful rock-pop ... Detail |

Rock n Roll Jesus(more) »rank: 6by: Kid Rock
Our review: :Rock Is Back. After 22 million records sold in the US and a three year hiatus, Kid Rock is back with the brand new album 'Rock N Roll Jesus'. Kid Rock hustled in the Detroit underground for over ten years before he burst into the mainstream in 1999 with the timeless rock anthem 'Bawitdaba.' Other hits like 'Cowboy' and 'American Bad A**' followed while ballads like his 'Picture' duet with Sheryl Crow and 'Only God Knows Why' helped to propel him forward as one of the greatest artists of our ...

A Little Bit Longer(more) »rank: 15by: Jonas Brothers
Our review:Album Description:Produced by John Fields (with Jon Lind and Kevin Jonas, Sr., serving as executive producers), 'A Little Bit Longer' covers much musical and emotional ground, kicking off with the joyful jam 'BB Good.' Says Joe of the track, 'It's a big sing-along song, and it's fun.' The funky and danceable debut single, 'Burnin' Up,' keeps the party going, with Big Rob, the brothers' hefty security guard, rapping midtrack. 'It's about this girl,' adds Joe. 'Maybe she's at a party, and you feel that immediate connection. You both know it's ... Detail |

ABBA - Gold: Greatest Hits(more) »rank: 17by: ABBA
Our review: essential recording:Anyone looking for the key to Abba's enduring appeal should look no further than 'Voulez Vous' and 'Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)' for their answer. There was an innocence to the Swedish quartet, even when they were singing about one-night stands and the invitations to them. Gold establishes that the band, while appreciated as campy, were actually multifaceted in their execution. 'S.O.S.' has a raw urgency in its chorus, and 'Does Your Mother Know' draws its energy from classic '50s rock & roll. Likewise, you don't ... Detail |
Harps & Angels(more) »rank: 12by: Randy Newman
Our review: :Randy Newman's first studio album of all new material in nearly a decade is, by turns, hilarious, poignant and scathingly satirical. Harps and Angels often has an easy going Crescent City feel, with Newman on piano fronting a small combo and revealing, as Rolling Stone put it after the Carnegie Hall show, his serious love and study of the New Orleans piano tradition.
