Lead single “Intro” and “Y’all Know” start with near-whispers before kicking into giddily catchy, fuzz box-driven hollered hooks. Big Willie Style isn’t so much a record, as a great effort at dragging you into another world. Self-described as Rap: Hip-Hop with lots of words, Will Smith comes out swinging on perhaps his best album to date. This album is in perfect progression from Will Smith!
In the light shines equally on lyrics, vocals and instrumentation.
The song feels complete. You have to get essence of the Gettin’ Jiggy Wit It’s power, to truly understand this masterpiece. Candy (feat. Larry Blackmon and Cameo) is outstanding work of Will Smith. Chasing Forever marked the continuation of Will Smith in style evolution. Keith B-Real I (Interlude) is a very good song maybe surprisingly better than you at first might’ve imagined. Excellent vocals and musical performances. Miami is the most memorable and exquisite. Outside of the singles, my favorite song on Big Willie Style is Yes Yes Y’all (feat. Camp Le). I Loved You is just a great song and one well worth taking the time to give it a good listen. I believe Keith B-Real II (Interlude) is one of the most excellent, heartfelt songs ever written. It’s All Good motivates you to get up and do something to improve your life and the life of others. Overall a nice softer song. Keith B-Real III (Interlude) is possibly the best song Will Smith has come up. Big Willie Style (Feat. Left Eye) is a cool, simple song by Will Smith at the top of his game. This is one of those songs that musicians strive to write and create. I was truly moved when I heard Just Cruisin’ (Remix).

There is so much to love about Puff Daddy and The Family, starting with incredible harmonies, songwriting chops and stellar stage presence. After debuting at No. 1 last week, Puff Daddy and The Family’s album No Way Out falls to No. 2 with 136,000, a sales slide of 57%. Lead single “No Way Out (intro)” and “Victory feat The Notorious B..” start with near-whispers before kicking into giddily catchy, fuzz box-driven hollered hooks. Oh yes, this album gets Array out of Array
is one of these floating songs.
It’s also one of those rare songs that touchingly comfort the listener. This track is just fantastic from start to finish. The sound in What You Gonna Do is really warm and Puff Daddy and The Family’s signature voice is still very much present. |titile| is a sure sign of something most of us are experiencing, maturity. One of the songs that always stick in my mind is If I Should Die Tonight (int…..) because the melody in the chorus is so good. Do You Know has a fun tempo. Young G’s feat The Notorious.. pretty much defines how I feel spiritually. This song may be the most meaningful. This track is just a stunning masterpiece. Voice of Puff Daddy and The Family in Pain is honest and guitar work is subtle and poignant. Is This The End feat Ginuwin.. is worth the money. In I Got The Power feat The Lox the light shines equally on lyrics, vocals and instrumentation. Friend feat Foxy Brown is a very good song maybe surprisingly better than you at first might’ve imagined. Sesorita is possibly the best song Puff Daddy and The Family has come up. I’ll Be Missing You feat Fai.. is the most memorable and cool. The song feels complete.

‘When Disaster Strikes’ kicks the album off with a blast of pure pop energy. Busta Rhymes was a flawless and timeless record. Not surprising from Busta Rhymes and When Disaster Strikes together. Since completing 1997’s ‘Intro’, Busta Rhymes fulfilled their contract with SixSteps records and where under no obligation to release another album. Lots of variety between tracks. My favorite is The Whole World Lookin’ At
is a very catchy tune.
The Whole World Lookin’ At - This is a very lively song. Turn It Up Rmx has to be one of the most beautiful tracks on the entire album. I was truly moved when I heard When Disaster Strikes. So Hardcore one of the best in my collection. Listening to Get High Tonight you can hear that Busta Rhymes has still amazing chemistry with band members. Some of the arrangements found on When Disaster Strikes are surprisingly edgy. Put Your Hands Where My… is a pleasing, and full of overall coherence that goes beyond other creations. I’ve found myself listening to It’s All Good back to back and back many times. There’s Not A Problem to me is the best you can get from Busta Rhymes. We Could Take It Outside actually sounds so joyous, that you can practically see a smile on Busta Rhymes’s face. The first time I listened to Rhymes Galore I was struck by its astounding sound. Things We Be Doin’ For $ P1 is just a great song and one well worth taking the time to give it a good listen. Don’t judge Things We Be Doin’ For $ P2 on the first listening. One is flawed, nonetheless pretty good song. Music in Dangerous is gorgeous as in all tracks of When Disaster Strikes. In The Bodyrock the music gets its power. This track is a fabulous selection of easy listening, suitable for any age, taste or occasion. Only one song from When Disaster Strikes named Outro really got me.

This fifteen-song debut EP shows the promise that Jay-Z has. It’s natural for Jay-Z to take a stab at ‘Intro / A Million and One Questions / Rhyme No More’ considering her long-professed love for U2. Since Jay-Z last CD (In My Lifetime Vol. 1) on Blue Note Records back in 1997, I have felt a massive void in my life. This album is a scorcher!
has a fun tempo.
The City Is Mine (feat. Blackstreet) still maintains something of a specific flourish. I Know What Girls Like (feat. Puff Daddy and Lil’ Kim) is a song to enjoy for years to come. Imaginary Player is outstanding work of Jay-Z. Get In My Lifetime Vol. 1 and turn on Streets Is Watching if you are going to sip your wine late at night. Friend Or Foe ‘98 is just a great song and one well worth taking the time to give it a good listen. Lucky Me is perfect song though, very addictive. (Always Be My) Sunshine defines beauty, yet is as unforgiving as an astringent stone. I find myself hearing bits of Who You Wit II here and there throughout my waking hours. Face Off (feat. Sauce Money) as well as many of songs is a short story in miniature. Real Niggaz (feat. Too Short) gets you up and jumping. Voice of Jay-Z in Rap Game / Crack Game is honest and guitar work is subtle and poignant. Where I’m From is a song that will not reduce you to tears but leave you thinking long after In My Lifetime Vol. 1 have ended. You Must Love Me is possibly the best song Jay-Z has come up.

On the Cyprus charts, superstar Prince’s career stalled before it left the starting gate. While no new Prince album is in sight, the artist has been road testing new songs during 1997 tour in South America. On Crystal Ball, Disc 2 album, Prince have renewed their membership in the ‘if it ain’t broke…’ school of songwriting. If I may, I suggest “Interactive”. That one song is amazing!
is nothing short of a modern masterpiece.
Da Bang one of the most beautiful songs i’ve ever heard. Calhoun Square is a very catchy tune. What’s My Name is pretty funky and mellow. Crucial still maintains something of a specific flourish. An Honest Man is cool work of Prince. Sexual Suicide is cool song though, very addictive. Cloreen Bacon Skin make listening to Prince like being in some sort of time warp. Good Love without a doubt is the standout song of Crystal Ball, Disc 2. Strays Of The World is the first taste of the new album.

There were many famous songs of Marshall Law available. It’s natural for Marshall Law to take a stab at ‘Addicted To The Pain’ considering her long-professed love for Gridlok. This compilation contains all of the biggest hits by Marshall Law. If I may, I suggest “Addicted To The Pain”. That one song is amazing!
is a medium tempo tune.
I can’t stop playing Devices. Charming song, great melody. Feed The Need - To me, this is the best song on the Metal Detector. Iridium is a cool sing-along. If you are a Marshall Law fan, you will love Meganoid. This is the most melodic ambitious and satisfying track in Metal Detector. Seek And You Shall Find is possibly the most mysterious and inexplicable track Marshall Law ever produced. Some of the arrangements found on Metal Detector are surprisingly edgy. Simple and heartfelt closing track The Sands Of Time closes Metal Detector on a high note. The Seeds Of Change - Well, here we get a bit more meaning. In Twisted This Marshall Law is at his best. Marshall Law sings his heart out in War.

There is so much to love about Midnight Sun, starting with incredible harmonies, songwriting chops and stellar stage presence. Self-described as Metal: Heavy with lots of words, Midnight Sun comes out swinging on perhaps his best album to date. Since completing 1997’s ‘All I Want’, Midnight Sun fulfilled their contract with Mute Records and where under no obligation to release another album. Midnight Sun “Another World” is an amazing album.
is marvelous song though, very addictive.
Midnight Sun offers the kind of music here that makes you reflect on yourself. So much energy, so exciting a sound.Deep In My Heart is such a excellent and optimistic song that things can get just better. Front-Page News is the first taste of the new album. Hold Me Back which is my favorite is a truly Midnight Sun sounding song. Looking For Love is one of the most beautiful songs ever to grace my stereo. The opening track Moneymaker is very much like you would expect from other albums. Name Of Love is a song that will not reduce you to tears but leave you thinking long after Another World have ended. The song feels complete. This track is clearly meant to showcase Midnight Sun’s vocal abilities. Over And Over marked the continuation of Midnight Sun in style evolution. In Power Of Greed full palet of sound is used by Midnight Sun to accentuate the presentation.

This twelve-song debut EP shows the promise that Brazen Abbot has. When you buy a Brazen Abbot album, you know exactly what you’re getting! On Bad Religion album, Brazen Abbot have renewed their membership in the ‘if it ain’t broke…’ school of songwriting. Unappreciated gift to Metal: Heavy
rocked my world when I popped it into my car stereo.
Nightmares gives taste of what makes Brazen Abbot special as a musician. Brazen Abbot must have run out of lyrics on the next track Two Of Kind. I Will Rise Again have really caught my ear and imagination. This song is like perfectly aged vintage bordeaux wine not a tequila shot. We Don’t Talk Anymore - This happy song is an ode to optimism and an anthem. Wings Of A Dream is possibly the most mysterious and inexplicable track Brazen Abbot ever produced. Bad Religion is a cool sing-along. Blew our minds when we first heard Father To Child. This is probably my favorite song on the album. The Empire Of The Sun - To me, this is the best song on the Bad Religion.

I am not a real Folk: British music type of person, but i have to admit ‘The Ultimate Collection’ really is amazing. The Ultimate Collection isn’t so much a record, as a great effort at dragging you into another world. one years ago, Clannad briefly lived up to their terrific name, with an insanely addictive hit single called “Two Sisters”. The Ultimate Collection constantly brilliant.
This track is a killer, it just grabs you instantly.
Two Sisters - A catchy, upbeat tune. This is one of those tracks that should not be judged after the first hearing. Clannad allows each song to breathe and flourish. I like the idea behind Down By The Sally Gardens. An Tull is filled with very deep emotions that will truly touch your heart. N A Buachaili Alainm - Check out that bassline! This track is just fantastic from start to finish. Clannad is hitting on all cylinders in Mlorag’s Na Horo Gheallaidh. Harry’s Game (Theme From) gives good insight into the truths. New Grange is, without a doubt, my favorite song, ever. Robin (The Hooded Man) is sonically very melodic with nice haunting verses. In A Lifetime - This one is lively and fun. Closer To Your Heart is worth the money. Something To Believe In is one of the coolest songs Clannad has ever recorded. The Hunter is one of those songs that will put you in a good mood. I Will Find You is an upbeat song with a constant snare hit. A Bridge marked the continuation of Clannad in style evolution.

There is no doubt that Orange Goblin has talent. Since Orange Goblin last CD (Frequencies From Planet Ten) on Capitol Records back in 1997, I have felt a massive void in my life. This album has some very good songs like The Astral Project and Magic Carpet. I Love Frequencies From Planet Ten from start to finish!
If you are a Orange Goblin fan, you will love .
The first time I listened to Magic Carpet I was struck by its exquisite sound. Get Frequencies From Planet Ten and turn on Saruman’s Wish if you are going to sip your wine late at night. Music of Song Of The Purple Mushroom Fish is gentle, never overbearing. Aquatic Fanatic is really the reason why I recommend buying Frequencies From Planet Ten. All of songs on Frequencies From Planet Ten and have something to say letting alone Lothlorian. Land Of Secret Dreams is a amazing, simple song by Orange Goblin at the top of his game. Orange Goblin is a strong cut, one of many. Orange Goblin must have run out of lyrics on the next track Star Shaped Cloud.

Jim Jones has compared writing for Edguy’s new album to that on ‘Kingdom Of Madness’ - but has declared the lyrics will be even more terrifying. IF YOU LIKE ALL Edguy’S SONG GO FOR IT! When you buy a Edguy album, you know exactly what you’re getting! Overall, I would highly recommend Kingdom Of Madness CD.
Awesome song is really all that you can say about it.
In Wings Of A Dream full palet of sound is used by Edguy to accentuate the presentation. This song could easily nestle itself onto the world top playlists. This is one of those tracks that should not be judged after the first hearing. Deadmaker is a song that will not reduce you to tears but leave you thinking long after Kingdom Of Madness have ended. Angel Rebellion marked the continuation of Edguy in style evolution. The song When A Hero Cries ending is my favorite… so catchy! Kingdom Of Madness couldn’t start better than with the up up-beat title track Steel Church. The Kingdom is probably the highlight of the album.

After debuting at No. 1 last week, Powerman 5000’s album Mega!! Kung Fu Radio falls to No. 2 with 908,000, a sales slide of 96%. While no new Powerman 5000 album is in sight, the artist has been road testing new songs during 1997 tour in Africa. This is the first studio album from Powerman 5000 since bad diagnosis in 1997. This album is in perfect progression from Powerman 5000!
Get Mega!! Kung Fu Radio and turn on if you are going to sip your wine late at night.
This is one hell of a track. Neckbone - arguably the best track on Mega!! Kung Fu Radio album. Car Crash is one of the more up-tempo songs on Mega!! Kung Fu Radio. Powerman 5000 has astounded me with this amazing track. A Swim With The Sharks is the albums biggest surprise. 20 Miles To Texas 25 To Hell is simply gorgeous. Best song on the album, love it. Powerman 5000 allows each song to breathe and flourish. In Bored Witcha the light shines equally on lyrics, vocals and instrumentation. In Standing 8 the music gets its power. This track is clearly meant to showcase Powerman 5000’s vocal abilities.

When you buy a Iron Savior album, you know exactly what you’re getting! IF YOU LIKE ALL Iron Savior’S SONG GO FOR IT! I am not a real Metal: Heavy music type of person, but i have to admit ‘Iron Savior’ really is amazing. Another great offering from Iron Savior.
Vocal harmonies in this track are great and song structure is just right.
The beautiful sound of this track makes you want to close your eyes and sway away with the music. Brave New World gives good insight into the truths. Iron Savior is the song that really did it for me. Riding On Fire is astounding. Break It Up is a amazing, simple song by Iron Savior at the top of his game. Still going through Iron Savior and coming to appreciate Assailant more and more with every listen. Children Of The Wasteland is the albums biggest surprise. This is one of those songs that musicians strive to write and create. From the sound of it, I believe the song can be a big radio hit. Iron Savior sings his heart out in For The World. |titile| is quite refreshing and sets the tone for what is going on in Iron Savior.

Exciter was a flawless and timeless record. Not surprising from Exciter and The Dark Command together. IF YOU LIKE ALL Exciter’S SONG GO FOR IT! I am not a real Metal: Heavy music type of person, but i have to admit ‘The Dark Command’ really is amazing. Cool, but I like their other actual stuff better like The Dark Command.
- I used to hate this song, but now it’s one of my favorites.
One of the songs that always stick in my mind is Burn At The Stake because the melody in the chorus is so good. Listening to Aggressor you can hear that Exciter has still amazing chemistry with band members. Opening track Assassins In Rage shows the best of Exciter. Ritual Death is a very catchy tune. All of songs on The Dark Command and have something to say letting alone Sacred War. This is the most melodic ambitious and satisfying track in The Dark Command. Executioner is a good listen every once in a while. Within the first few notes of Suicide Overdose it’s perfectly clear that Exciter is living this song. I love the melodic melody of Screams From The Gallows and to this day it makes me feel good.

Legends Of Valor is an amazing album, racked with beauty.For older fans Legends Of Valor will put a massive smile accross your face. Since completing 1997’s ‘The Night Of The Metalkill’, Skullview fulfilled their contract with Virgin Records and where under no obligation to release another album. The Night Of The Metalkill and Blood On The Blade is really good.
One of the more genuine-sounding songs is .
This is one hell of a track. Undesired Hateful Ways to me is the best you can get from Skullview. Watching Below From My Moonlight Throne is simple, dignified and effective, Skullview refusing to over-emote, and demonstrating that less is more. Stone Of A Thousand Spells is a fine track on any terms. Dreamworld Terror - A nice song. This track is a killer, it just grabs you instantly. Gleam Of The Skull Part 1 (The Power) is a romantic if not formulaic ditty.

Now signed to Sinner’s Virgin Records, the title track from second album “Judgement Day” leads Sinner’s back-to-school campaign. After seeing Used To The Truth, I had to have a good Sinner cd. ‘Judgement Day’ kicks the album off with a blast of pure pop energy. I wish that “Judgement Day” album was instrumental.
This is probably my favorite song on the album.
|titile| is a sure sign of something most of us are experiencing, maturity. Jump The Gun (4:06) - Oh, this is one of my favorites! Charming song, great melody. No Sinner song has come close to capturing my attention as Pray For Mercy did. Listening to White Lightning you can hear that Sinner has still amazing chemistry with band members. In Blue Tattoo the light shines equally on lyrics, vocals and instrumentation. I find myself hearing bits of School Of Hard Knocks here and there throughout my waking hours. The Fugitive is a pleasing, and full of overall coherence that goes beyond other creations. You can find feelings on this piece of art. Streets Of Sin good vocals.

Hammerfall’s debut, ‘Glory To The Brave’, does not fit easily into one genre. Nowhere is this more so than on their re-working of Hammerfall on ‘The Dragon Lies Bleeding’. There is so much to love about Hammerfall, starting with incredible harmonies, songwriting chops and stellar stage presence. The Dragon Lies Bleeding and The Metal Age is really good.
In Hammerfall is at his best.
The Metal Age is one of those songs that will put you in a good mood. A unique and uplifting song. I Believe is a bit different from Hammerfall stereotypical stuff. Song Child Of The Damned is actually a funny song. In Steel Meets Steel Hammerfall spins a tale you want to hear to the end. Stone Cold is kind of track that compels you to skip back and drink it in one more time before moving on through Glory To The Brave. |titile| is the kind of record that makes you remember why music can be so addictive. Glory To The Brave is perhaps one of the best tracks of the past decade.

Simply the finest work ever from this multi-talented singer. |titile| is a sure sign of something most of us are experiencing, maturity. In Morning Sun full palet of sound is used by Savatage to accentuate the presentation. A unique and uplifting song. Blackjack Guillotine can be hardly overrated by any means; this is what Savatage is all about. Paragons Of Innocence - A strong beat. Complaint In The System (Veronica Guerin) - A nice song. Underture - a classic song. The Wake Of Magellan - Savatage first major hit. This is the kind of song I think of when I think of Savatage. The Storm is probably the highlight of the album.

Hear has compared writing for Ozzy Osbourne’s new album to that on ‘The Ozzman Cometh’ - but has declared the lyrics will be even more terrifying. This is what good Metal: Heavy should be.
as well as many of songs is a short story in miniature.
War Pigs as well as many of songs is a short story in miniature. In this song fans will recognize the unique vocals of Ozzy Osbourne. Crazy Train gives taste of what makes Ozzy Osbourne special as a musician. Mr. Crowley is one of my favorite songs by Ozzy Osbourne. It’s a great pleasure to listen to Over The Mountain from the beginning to the end. Ozzy Osbourne breathes new life into the music in Paranoid (Live with Randy Rhoads). Within the first few notes of Bark At The Moon it’s perfectly clear that Ozzy Osbourne is living this song. Shot In The Dark is absolutely incredible. Don’t judge Crazy Babies on the first listening. No More Tears (Edit) is a romantic if not formulaic ditty. Mama, I’m Coming Home - Ozzy Osbourne first major hit. All of songs on The Ozzman Cometh and have something to say letting alone I Don’t Want To Change The World (Live). I like the idea behind I Just Want You. I came to like Back On Earth.

Vanden Plas was a flawless and timeless record. Not surprising from Vanden Plas and The God Thing together. Since Vanden Plas last CD (The God Thing) on SixSteps records back in 1997, I have felt a massive void in my life. twelve years ago, Vanden Plas briefly lived up to their terrific name, with an insanely addictive hit single called “Rainmaker”. Enjoy the show.
is an upbeat song with a constant snare hit.
Rainmaker (6:41) - Oh, this is one of my favorites! I was truly moved when I heard Garden Of Stones. It is succeeded by an outstanding track, however: In You I Believe, which shows, blatantly, how much Vanden Plas has evolved as a singer. The song Day I Die ending is my favorite… so catchy! Crown Of Thorns is the funkiest number on the album. We’re Not God was the first single release from the album The God Thing. Salt In My Wounds is gorgeous work of Vanden Plas. Vanden Plas sings his heart out in You Fly.

Hot and Slow: The Best Of The Ballads carries a very emotional theme throughout the album. Bonfire had quite a long carriere and they made many hits. Lead single “You Make Me Feel” and “Rock’n’ Roll Cowboy” start with near-whispers before kicking into giddily catchy, fuzz box-driven hollered hooks. This is one of the best cd’s i have heard through the whole thing.
It’s a great pleasure to listen to from the beginning to the end.
When listening to Rock’n’ Roll Cowboy, it gives me such an energy rush it’s unbelievable. The Stroke is almost impossible to review. Give It A Try gives taste of what makes Bonfire special as a musician. This is one of those tracks that should not be judged after the first hearing. Overall a nice softer song. Take My Heart and Run catches attention immediately, Who’s Foolin’ Who - This is a very lively song. Sdi - To me, this is the best song on the Hot and Slow: The Best Of The Ballads. Although Sleeping All Alone is very melodic it is far from sad. Musically Why Is It Never Enough is superior to other tracks in Hot and Slow: The Best Of The Ballads. Fight For Love defines beauty, yet is as unforgiving as an astringent stone. In Sweet Obsession Bonfire spins a tale you want to hear to the end. Still going through Hot and Slow: The Best Of The Ballads and coming to appreciate Look Of Love more and more with every listen. Cold Days - I used to hate this song, but now it’s one of my favorites. Rivers Of Glory is the albums biggest surprise. Feels Like Comin’ Home is, without a doubt, my favorite song, ever.

Nowhere is this more so than on their re-working of Pretty Maids on ‘Resurrection (Intro)’. This compilation contains all of the biggest hits by Pretty Maids. Spooked isn’t so much a record, as a great effort at dragging you into another world. Spooked constantly brilliant.
is a catchy, up-tempo track that has influence of music streams without leaning too much in that direction.
Freakshow motivates you to get up and do something to improve your life and the life of others. In Dead Or Alive the music gets its power. I was truly moved when I heard Die With Your Dreams. Song Fly Me Out is actually a funny song. This track is a great song that still never gets old. A fantastic track full of wonder. Twisted is possibly the best song Pretty Maids has come up. If It Can’t Be Love I just LOVE this mix! Awesome song is really all that you can say about it. In Your Mind Is Where The Money I the light shines equally on lyrics, vocals and instrumentation. This is probably my favorite song on the album. The One That Should Not Be - For me, this is the best of the album.

While no new Metal - Various Artists album is in sight, the artist has been road testing new songs during 1997 tour in North America. There is no doubt that Metal - Various Artists has talent. Metal - Various Artists was a flawless and timeless record. Not surprising from Metal - Various Artists and Legends Of Metal, vol. II together. I love this album so much, i’ve been crazy about Metal - Various Artists ever.
Strong percussion and poignant lyrics of this track really gets under your skin.
So much energy, so exciting a sound.The Sentinel (Heavens Gate) is an upbeat song with a constant snare hit. Within the first few notes of Love Bites (Nevermore) it’s perfectly clear that Metal - Various Artists is living this song. I have all of Metal - Various Artists’s tracks and Exciter [feat. ralf scheepers] (Gamma Ray) is probably the most his introspective effort. This is one of those songs that musicians strive to write and create. Painkiller (Angra) is another strong production from Metal - Various Artists. Vocals of Metal - Various Artists in Tyrant (Overkill) really capture me and are set perfectly to the rhythm. Grinder (Kreator) - isn’t quite as powerful vocally, but has a beautiful melody. Dreamer Deceiver (Skyclad) is really the reason why I recommend buying Legends Of Metal, vol. II. Bloodstone (Stratovarius) I just LOVE this mix! Screaming For Vengeance (Virgin Steele) is the funkiest number on the album. From the moment you listen to Night Comes Down (Leviathan) you’re hooked.

This album has some very good songs like Final Step and Hallucinational. Nowhere is this more so than on their re-working of Flotsam and Jetsam on ‘Final Step’. It’s natural for Flotsam and Jetsam to take a stab at ‘Final Step’ considering her long-professed love for U2. Flotsam and Jetsam is one of my favourite bands of all time.
Opening track shows the best of Flotsam and Jetsam.
Hallucinational to me is the best you can get from Flotsam and Jetsam. There is excellent mix of music in It’s On Me. High Noon is the song that really did it for me. Your Hands is one of the best records ever. Monster is probably the highlight of the album. Lucky Day is the funkiest number on the album. It’s such an underrated song. High is worth the money. Everything is almost impossible to review. I like to sing along with Fork Boy, though I mess up the lyrics sometimes.

Blackening makes a person feel cool. I’ve found myself listening to Seven back to back and back many times. Sick Puppy is one of those songs that will put you in a good mood. Tongue - I just love it. The sound in In Dementia is really warm and Chastain’s signature voice is still very much present. Listening to House Of Stone you can hear that Chastain has still amazing chemistry with band members. Outside of the singles, my favorite song on In Dementia is Conformity. There is astounding mix of music in Desperately.

This is what good Metal: Heavy should be.
has to be one of the most beautiful tracks on the entire album.
Save Me make listening to Over Kill like being in some sort of time warp. Still going through From The Underground and Below and coming to appreciate Long Time Dyin’ more and more with every listen. Over Kill sings his heart out in Genocya. This song may be the most meaningful. I can’t stop playing F. U. C. T.. Outside of the singles, my favorite song on From The Underground and Below is I’m Alright. The Rip N’ Tear is kind of track that compels you to skip back and drink it in one more time before moving on through From The Underground and Below. Promises - For me, this is the best of the album. Little Bit O’ Murder is flawed, nonetheless pretty good song.

- This is a very lively song.
Green is gorgeous and different song. Phat is a good listen every once in a while. No Forbidden song has come close to capturing my attention as Turns To Rage did. You can find feelings on this piece of art. Over The Middle - Forbidden first major hit. |titile| is a sure sign of something most of us are experiencing, maturity. Noncent$ is perhaps one of the best tracks of the past decade. Music of Blank is gentle, never overbearing. Focus is an upbeat song with a constant snare hit.

It has been two years Cinderella’ last studio CD, “Once Upon A…” which won Array Academy Awards� and was nominated for album of the year. Cinderella had quite a long carriere and they made many hits. This compilation contains all of the biggest hits by Cinderella. One of Cinderella’s best albums yet.
had me crying as I was able to relate so well.
This track, in particular, has the kind of undeniably catchy flavor. Somebody Save Me (3:16) - Oh, this is one of my favorites! No Cinderella song has come close to capturing my attention as Gypsy Road did. The sound in Don’t Know What You’ve Got (Till It’s Gone) is really warm and Cinderella’s signature voice is still very much present. Cinderella is hitting on all cylinders in The Last Mile. In Coming Home Cinderella is at his best. Shelter Me - arguably the best track on Once Upon A… album. Heartbreak Station is a gorgeous sing-along. A unique and uplifting song. Love’s Got Me Doin’ Time - I just love it. Hot and Bothered (3:57) a good melody. This track is almost perfect, instrumentals and vocals combine awesomely. War Stories very upbeat. Move Over have really caught my ear and imagination.

I am not a real Metal: Heavy music type of person, but i have to admit ‘Kill Fuck Die’ really is amazing. Kill Fuck Die carries a very emotional theme throughout the album. On the England charts, superstar W.A.S.P.’s career stalled before it left the starting gate. This is one of the best cd’s i have heard through the whole thing.
Only one song from Kill Fuck Die named really got me.
Take The Addiction (3:41) - awsome. My Tortured Eyes is perhaps one of the best tracks of the past decade. Killahead the elegant and beautiful song on the album is hard to describe. Tokyo’s On Fire is one of the most beautiful songs ever to grace my stereo. Don’t judge Kill Your Pretty Face on the first listening. Wicked Love - another great track from the Kill Fuck Die album. In U the music gets its power. The Horror - Okay, I just talked about depth. Fetus motivates you to get up and do something to improve your life and the life of others. Overall a nice softer song. Blind In Texas is a strong cut, one of many. Rock’n'roll To Death is possibly the most mysterious and inexplicable track W.A.S.P. ever produced.

There is no doubt that Annihilator has talent. On Remains album, Annihilator have renewed their membership in the ‘if it ain’t broke…’ school of songwriting. four years ago, Annihilator briefly lived up to their terrific name, with an insanely addictive hit single called “Sexecution”. Another great offering from Annihilator.
Get Remains and turn on if you are going to sip your wine late at night.
Once Sexecution gets in your head, it will NEVER leave. This track is almost perfect, instrumentals and vocals combine awesomely. I love the melodic melody of Never and to this day it makes me feel good. When listening to Human Remains, it gives me such an energy rush it’s unbelievable. Dead Wrong had me crying as I was able to relate so well. Blew our minds when we first heard Wind. Lyrics of Tricks and Traps are precise and evocative. I’ve found myself listening to I Want back to back and back many times. Reaction is a nice, innocuous song, and much better than anything Annihilator released so far. Bastiage is probably one of Annihilator’s biggest successes for the album - it’s lovely to listen to.

While no new Goon album is in sight, the artist has been road testing new songs during 1997 tour in Asia. This eight-song debut EP shows the promise that Goon has. Goon had quite a long carriere and they made many hits. Goon is the best essence of Goon.
What sets apart is Goon’s innovative and organic way of creating atmospheres.
Big Beat is a exquisite, simple song by Goon at the top of his game. The sound in Extreme Terror is really warm and Goon’s signature voice is still very much present. Goon offers the kind of music here that makes you reflect on yourself. A fantastic track full of wonder. The song feels complete. I like the agression and power of Volcanic Outbreak.

After seeing Alien Pump, I had to have a good Tandu cd. This album has some very good songs like Alien Pump and The System. Tandu had quite a long carriere and they made many hits. This album is awesome.
is one of the best records ever.
The System - This one has a powerful beat and a good melody. Naugty Moves is a song to enjoy for years to come. New Aura - is a breath or fresh air compared to many previous songs of Tandu. Orca rocked my world when I popped it into my car stereo. Blew our minds when we first heard Visually Distorted. Rodeo is beautiful, yet underrated track. A great put together song.

This compilation contains all of the biggest hits by Stratovarius. It’s a brave and brilliant refocusing of Stratovarius energies, virtually a rebirth. Since completing 1997’s ‘The Kiss Of Judas’, Stratovarius fulfilled their contract with ForeFront Records and where under no obligation to release another album. I love this album so much, i’ve been crazy about Stratovarius ever.
This track is full of harmonies and gets Visions off to a relaxing start.
Black Diamond is a great song for a cosy night in when it’s cold and wintry outside. Forever Free is the most memorable and astounding. You can find feelings on this piece of art. Legions (5:43) Not one of my favorites, but for a lot of people this is one of their best songs. Strong, powerful vocals of Stratovarius in The Abyss Of Your Eyes are very impressive. Holy Light is the albums biggest surprise. Paradise - is a breath or fresh air compared to many previous songs of Stratovarius. Stratovarius must have run out of lyrics on the next track Coming Home. Visions - another great track from the Visions album. Black Diamond sets the tone for the entire album. This is the most melodic ambitious and satisfying track in Visions.

There is no doubt that Gary Moore has talent. After seeing One Good Reason, I had to have a good Gary Moore cd. It has been one years Gary Moore’ last studio CD, “Dark Days In Paradise” which won Array Emmy� Awards and was nominated for album of the year. IF you love Gary Moore, ‘Dark Days In Paradise’ Mp3’s is the best!
- A catchy, upbeat tune.
Voice of Gary Moore in Cold Wind Blows is honest and guitar work is subtle and poignant. After about the third I Have Found My Love In You listen through, I began to believe this song is Gary Moore’s essence. This track is clearly meant to showcase Gary Moore’s vocal abilities. This track is full of harmonies and gets Dark Days In Paradise off to a relaxing start. This song is dynamic and dramatic. Always There For You great lyrics, dark, deep, angry and cool.Afraid Of Tomorrow makes a person feel marvelous. After few listenings I started to like Where Did We Go Wrong more and more. Business As Usual the elegant and beautiful song on the album is hard to describe.

Here They Come: The Greatest Hits Of The Monkees is an amazing album, racked with beauty.It’s natural for The Monkees to take a stab at ‘(Theme From) The Monkees’ considering her long-professed love for Gustav Holst. The Monkees had quite a long carriere and they made many hits. Such great and happy songs.
After about the third listen through, I began to believe this song is The Monkees’s essence.
When I listen to I’m A Believer in my car when traffic ain’t going so good. I can’t stop humming along Last Train To Clarksville. This is one of those tracks that should not be judged after the first hearing. Voice and instruments in (I’m Not Your) Steppin’ Stone complement each other. Voice of The Monkees in I Wanna Be Free is honest and guitar work is subtle and poignant. A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You (2:49) - awsome. She as well as many of songs is a short story in miniature. Listening to Randy Scouse Git you can hear that The Monkees has still amazing chemistry with band members. Mary, Mary is nothing but pure genius. The Girl I Knew Somewhere gives good insight into the truths. Forget That Girl is just a great song and one well worth taking the time to give it a good listen. For Pete’s Sake is the song that really did it for me. This track is almost perfect, instrumentals and vocals combine awesomely. Listen To The Band (Single Version) is a good listen every once in a while. After you’ve listened to Daily Nightly (Alternate Mix), most everything else can’t hold up and is second rate. Some call Cuddly Toy from Here They Come: The Greatest Hits Of The Monkees as a quiet invitation of an artist to sit and listen. I love the melodic melody of Words and to this day it makes me feel good. Love Is Only Sleeping (Alternate Mix) is, without a doubt, my favorite song, ever. Someday Man motivates you to get up and do something to improve your life and the life of others. I can’t stop playing D.W. Washburn. Music and lyrics of It’s Nice To Be With You creates, for me, fertile ground for daydreaming. Porpoise Song (Theme From ‘Head’) (Single Version) is a exquisite song and it grows on you. Tear Drop City is a song to savor, to listen to from every angle. So much energy, so exciting a sound.

IF YOU LIKE ALL Ominus’S SONG GO FOR IT! There is no doubt that Ominus has talent. Ominus (2xLP) is an amazing album, racked with beauty.If I may, I suggest “Mean You No Harm”. That one song is amazing!
is the song that really did it for me.
It is succeeded by an outstanding track, however: Toxic Brainwaves, which shows, blatantly, how much Ominus has evolved as a singer. Tribalistic is filled with very deep emotions that will truly touch your heart. Awesome song is really all that you can say about it. Acid Tester is nothing short of a modern masterpiece. Shape Shifter - This is a very lively song. I love the melodic melody of Physical Encounter and to this day it makes me feel good. Other tracks are good but your best bet is to stick with Mindbender.

This is the first studio album from Spiritualized since bad diagnosis in 1997. Since completing 1997’s ‘Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space’, Spiritualized fulfilled their contract with Savoy Records and where under no obligation to release another album. ‘Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space’ kicks the album off with a blast of pure pop energy. I greatly enjoyed this CD.
I like to sing along with , though I mess up the lyrics sometimes.
After few listenings I started to like Come Together more and more. Spiritualized has astounded me with this amazing track. All Of My Thoughts make listening to Spiritualized like being in some sort of time warp. Stay With Me is a fine track on any terms. Electricity is beautiful, yet underrated track. No Spiritualized song has come close to capturing my attention as Home Of The Brave did. Music of The Individual is gentle, never overbearing. Excellent vocals and musical performances. This track is a fabulous selection of easy listening, suitable for any age, taste or occasion. Cool Waves is the albums biggest surprise. Cop Shoot Cop … actually sounds so joyous, that you can practically see a smile on Spiritualized’s face.

IF YOU LIKE ALL Goa - Various Artists’S SONG GO FOR IT! Ivan Grach has compared writing for Goa - Various Artists’s new album to that on ‘Goa Head 4′ - but has declared the lyrics will be even more terrifying. On the Norway charts, superstar Goa - Various Artists’s career stalled before it left the starting gate. Smart music for smart people.
Music in is marvelous as in all tracks of Goa Head 4.
After about the third Jiggle of The Sphinx (Hallucinogen) listen through, I began to believe this song is Goa - Various Artists’s essence. BOCTOK 5 (Radiotrance) is simple, dignified and effective, Goa - Various Artists refusing to over-emote, and demonstrating that less is more. Voice of Goa - Various Artists in Viking (Nada & DJ Jorg) is honest and guitar work is subtle and poignant. Floatation (Multiplex) - A nice song. Timelessness (Oforia) is the album’s biggest hit, I think. Warrior (Beach Buddha) is an incredible song that has everything it needs to be another favorite track. Labyrinth (Organic Noise) is just a great song and one well worth taking the time to give it a good listen. The Seven Pointed Star (Full Version ‘97) (Astralasia) great lyrics, dark, deep, angry and cool.This track is nearly perfect if not perfect.

This disc has all of the essential Miranda classics. On the France charts, superstar Miranda’s career stalled before it left the starting gate. For older fans Phenomena will put a massive smile accross your face. Cool, but I like their other actual stuff better like Phenomena.
one is one of the better boring ones.
This is the most melodic ambitious and satisfying track in Phenomena. Andalgalornis - To me, this is the best song on the Phenomena. Some of the arrangements found on Phenomena are surprisingly edgy. This song may be the most meaningful. Awesome song is really all that you can say about it. Weightless still maintains something of a specific flourish. It’s very catchy and easy to get into which is what you want in a song.

There is no doubt that The Legendary Pink Dots has talent. After seeing As If, I had to have a good The Legendary Pink Dots cd. While no new The Legendary Pink Dots album is in sight, the artist has been road testing new songs during 1997 tour in Asia. To me The Legendary Pink Dots is the best band ever.
is a great opener for Under Triple Moons.
All of songs on Under Triple Moons and have something to say letting alone Splash. Submerged on Under Triple Moons is solid and easy to listen to. This song stands out greatly from the others. Digital - I used to hate this song, but now it’s one of my favorites. From the moment you listen to Dying For The Emperor you’re hooked. Oceans of Emotion is a song that will not reduce you to tears but leave you thinking long after Under Triple Moons have ended. Small Anthem is maybe the best thing the group’s ever done. |titile| is the kind of record that makes you remember why music can be so addictive. Premonition 2 is one of the best records ever. Frosty is another favourite of mine. One For The Pearl Moon (5:48) - Oh, this is one of my favorites! The Whore of Babylon is one of the best records ever. This is one of those tracks that should not be judged after the first hearing. This is one of those songs that musicians strive to write and create. This track is full of harmonies and gets Under Triple Moons off to a relaxing start. A great put together song. Down From The Country is one of those songs that will put you in a good mood. The Legendary Pink Dots is one of artists that allow his songs like Premonition 1 to stand on their own and be heard.

There is no doubt that Transdriver has talent. Self-described as Trance: Psychedelic with lots of words, Transdriver comes out swinging on perhaps his best album to date. When you buy a Transdriver album, you know exactly what you’re getting! This is one of Transdriver best albums
have really caught my ear and imagination.
It’s so catchy, it’s amazing. Rizograff is worth the money. Overall a nice softer song. I’ve found myself listening to Tar Up back to back and back many times. I think Energy Zone is the best song Transdriver has ever done. Musically Aum is superior to other tracks in Analogue Terror. This track is full of harmonies and gets Analogue Terror off to a relaxing start. Drop motivates you to get up and do something to improve your life and the life of others. Venera 14 (6:35) - Oh, this is one of my favorites! Hardphase is perfect. Noise Oscilator is a song that takes you on the journey before it reaches the conclusion.

Somaton was a flawless and timeless record. Not surprising from Somaton and Future Memories together. On the England charts, superstar Somaton’s career stalled before it left the starting gate. Somaton’s debut, ‘Future Memories’, does not fit easily into one genre. Exciting stuff.
is just simply stunning.
Future Memories is marvelous work of Somaton. Eclosion actually sounds so joyous, that you can practically see a smile on Somaton’s face. A fantastic track full of wonder. Infinite Reality has to be one of the most beautiful tracks on the entire album. Alpha Rhythms is one of those songs that will put you in a good mood. Mutate and Survive is a striking and quite long song. I hope to keep hearing Somaton works for a long time to come. Radionics great lyrics, dark, deep, angry and cool.First time I heard Infinity Dub was on radio driving in my car and sonically it just sounded amazing.

It has been two years Orion’ last studio CD, “Futursic Poetry” which won Array Grammy Awards and was nominated for album of the year. Lead single “Nazca Spider” and “The Source” start with near-whispers before kicking into giddily catchy, fuzz box-driven hollered hooks. There were many famous songs of Orion available. Such great and happy songs.
The sound of is difficult to describe, as it seems to squirm in a sensual manner, unlike anything ever created.
You can find feelings on this piece of art. Rooster as well as many of songs is a short story in miniature. Funkadelic is simple, dignified and effective, Orion refusing to over-emote, and demonstrating that less is more. Caracol is the first taste of the new album. Akeru - This is a very lively song. The Souce (Mixed By Elysium) is a song you cannot help but think about at odd moments in your day. Don’t judge Highway on the first listening.

Lead single “01 Audiotrack” and “02 Audiotrack” start with near-whispers before kicking into giddily catchy, fuzz box-driven hollered hooks. This is the first studio album from House Of Dreams since bad diagnosis in 1997. When you buy a House Of Dreams album, you know exactly what you’re getting! A Galaxy Of Psychodelic is preety good and all the songs have a good meaning behind them.
very upbeat.
02 Audiotrack - is a breath or fresh air compared to many previous songs of House Of Dreams. This song has very few things relative to that of it’s predecessor. 04 Audiotrack (8:01) - Oh, this is one of my favorites! In 05 Audiotrack House Of Dreams is at his best. 06 Audiotrack is a great song for a cosy night in when it’s cold and wintry outside. House Of Dreams allows each song to breathe and flourish. 08 Audiotrack - This happy song is an ode to optimism and an anthem.

After seeing P.V.C., I had to have a good Anesthesia cd. P.V.C. is an amazing album, racked with beauty.I am not a real Trance: Psychedelic music type of person, but i have to admit ‘P.V.C.’ really is amazing. Enjoy the show.
In this song fans will recognize the unique vocals of Anesthesia.
Plastic Attack can be hardly overrated by any means; this is what Anesthesia is all about. Global is the funkiest number on the album. Put Aus Wak into car stereo for your highway driving Although Robotalk is very melodic it is far from sad. Plastic City the elegant and beautiful song on the album is hard to describe. Dirty Kiss - For me, this is the best of the album. Nutella Toasted - arguably the best track on P.V.C. album. This track is just a stunning masterpiece.

Lead single “The Neuromancer” and “Lepton Head Part Iii” start with near-whispers before kicking into giddily catchy, fuzz box-driven hollered hooks. Shakta had quite a long carriere and they made many hits. There is no doubt that Shakta has talent. If you love Shakta as much as I do, then Shakta Silicon Trip is the CD for you!
is really the reason why I recommend buying Silicon Trip.
|titile| is a sure sign of something most of us are experiencing, maturity. Put Silicon Trip into car stereo for your highway driving Ion Tribe is a great song for a cosy night in when it’s cold and wintry outside. Spirit. Beings In Phys. Bodies gives taste of what makes Shakta special as a musician. It’s also one of those rare songs that touchingly comfort the listener. Shakti’shakta - This one has a powerful beat and a good melody. Inner Polarity makes a person feel exquisite. In Loopmutant full palet of sound is used by Shakta to accentuate the presentation. Earthrise is a bit of a show-tune.

For older fans Psycho Disco will put a massive smile accross your face. Self-described as Trance: Psychedelic with lots of words, Psyko Disko comes out swinging on perhaps his best album to date. Ivan Grach has compared writing for Psyko Disko’s new album to that on ‘Psycho Disco’ - but has declared the lyrics will be even more terrifying. This is one of the best cd’s i have heard through the whole thing.
|titile| is quite refreshing and sets the tone for what is going on in Psycho Disco.
Overdose is simple, dignified and effective, Psyko Disko refusing to over-emote, and demonstrating that less is more. Mon Ami marked the continuation of Psyko Disko in style evolution. Get Away - A classic Psyko Disko track. I hope to keep hearing Psyko Disko works for a long time to come. Phorue Yang stands out to me for its audacious melody and sheer beauty. Best song on the album, lov
