Simple Plan – I Can Wait Forever

[ad]
I scorned this band for as long as I can remember. The singer has one of those voices that you feel like cramping him and tell him to get a real job. However, my discernment towards these wankers have changed a little with their latest album. I wasn’t enormously in love with “Your Love Is [...]

Shinedown – Second Chance

Posted by Gallivanter in Music Reviews on 28. Jun, 2008 | 2 Comments

The album kicks off with a strident first track (second track actually, I skipped “Devour”), which is the title track, “The Sound of Madness”. I’d recommend this song for all you headbangers. I love that track that I kept it on rewind for hours and hours (OK, not for the whole day but during my [...]

I checked out Motley Crue’s latest album, “Saints of Los Angeles”, featuring the group’s original lineup. After blogging about the title track, “Saints of Los Angeles”, which I think takes us back to the good old 80’s rock and roll.
The other songs on the album is rather weak though, nothing stands out as much as [...]

I think this song will go down really well with the ladies. It has one of those choruses that women may find it hard to resist. I think Nelly Furtado’s alright in terms of musical contribution, especially when Timbaland came-a-calling.

LL Cool J, I thoroughly enjoyed his 2004 outing, especially “Headsprung”. His next album, Exit 13, is due to be released at the end of July 2008. I believe this is the first single off the album, featuring The Dream. The chorus may not have the lyrical power, in fact, it’s “Baby” repeated a number [...]

“When you’re gone, will I lose control?”. It’s a pretty decent track by this independent Canadian artiste, and by the sound of things, should do rather well in the music charts.

Lights – Drive My Soul
Seems somebody put out the moon
Now the road is a minefield
I can’t follow the way she moves
I can’t see past the [...]

Keri Hilson, has been writing songs for God-knows how long. She finally decides to launch her debut solo album, In a Perfect World. The first single, is “Energy”, which is rather catchy in its own way. Some of you may heard her voice in Xzibit’s Hey Now Mean Muggin, Timbaland’s The Way I Are and [...]

“So take a minute just to breathe and think of everything you wanted.” – David Cook. I reviewed David Cook’s Analog Heart, a 2006 effort, a few days ago, after Cook became the first American Idol from the rock genre. I was delighted, because I rate David Cook, a much better singer than Bo Bice [...]

I love this track – it’s so danceable and it’s distinctive Pussycat Dolls, their first track off their upcoming second album, “To Those Who Wait”. This song is nothing short of catchy, and it oozes with catchy hooks and rhythm.

When I grow up I wanna be famous

Oh no! They’re back after almost 14 years in the wilderness. I have to admit that the song that I liked the most from them was the light-hearted “Cover Girl”, well, any 13 year old would’ve liked it. Having said that, I still do, simply because it brings back childhood memories.
This tune, I find it [...]
