Modern Times
over 5 years ago

Picked up three new CDs this week, and I thought I'd share my opinions on them.1. Bob Dylan- Modern TimesEasily one of the best CDs I've bought in a long time. Every review you've read that says that this is one of, if not the best, album of the year, is one hundred percent correct. I strongly recommend this album to anyone that likes music at all. The lyrics are great, the music is at top form, a

Is punk rock dead? Of course.
over 5 years ago

My roommate Erick and I were in our living room listening to the new(er) NOFX CD the other day, just kind of talking when he starts to talk about this girl at his work. He used the term "punk" to describe her.

Thank God it was a rhetorical question

Tonight at work, I got to talking with my co-workers about music and how my favorite band of all-time is The Clash (The Beatles are number 2 on my list, but I'd have to pick The Clash just barely over them). That's when my co-worker Sam posed me a difficult question. "Which would you pick if you only had to listen to one Clash album: The Clash or London Calling?" And I stood there for a good fe...

APB to MySpace Music artists
almost 6 years ago

I doubt anyone is reading this, especially since I just made this thing today, but if there's anyone who has a band on MySpace, just save us the trouble (us being me) of trying to describe your band with about five different adjectives. I am sick of seeing Rock/Pop/Dub/Electronica/Indie and all of this other nonsense. If you're a rock band, put down rock. If you're an indie band, put down indie. B
