Review: Lady Gaga - The Fame Monster

In Noverember of 2009, Lady Gaga returns releasing her second album, "The Fame Monster." This album includes her hit single, "Bad Romance." This is her best song from her album, in my oppinion. I also liked the song "Alejandro," the second song of the album. The song "Telephone," which featured Beyonce, was pretty good. The only songs I didn't like were "Speechless," and "So Happy I Could Die." The album was a thumbs up by me, and I recommend this to all who like pop. There's a link to her website right here

Review: Columbia - Columbia

The alternative rock band, Columbia, returns with its fourth self-named album that released the 9th of Febuary. It's a very mellow album, and is very calm and stress releiving CD that I think pretty much anybody would like. The song "Another Day" in particular is a good sound you should listen to, and the songs "Tuesday" and "Bidston Manor" are also fairly decent songs you should look into. It's a great album, and I think who ever likes music should look at this. There's a link to the band's myspace page here

Review: HIM - SCREAMWORKS: Love In Theory And Practice

The hard rock band, HIM, recently released their seventh album, "SCREAMWORKS: Love In Theory And Practice". The whole album sounds very mainstream, but in a good way. If you love hard rock bands from "Seether" to "Slipknot," I'm sure you'll love it. Some of their songs like "In Venere Veritas," are hard rock screamo-type songs, and others are much softer and less heavy like "Scared To Death." The song "Ode To Solitud," has a "Breaking Brenjamin" sound to it. Their song "Heartkiller," is one of their best songs, and I think is the song that defines the overall album as a great unique edition to the band's other six albums. The band is a great hard rock band, and if your into heavy rock, you should definitely buy it, or at least check it out. You can go to their website right here.

Review: Vampire Weekend - Contra

The new indie rock band, "Vampire Weekend," releases their second album, "Contra," on January 11th, 2010. Their entire album is just as great as their first album, and has a very unique sound to it. The first song of the album,"Horchata," has a "Coldplay" sound to it, in a way. It's also, in my oppinion, their best song. The second song, "White Sky," is very bright and happy all of the way through. Their songs "Holiday" and "Run" have a really beachy sound to it, and again, is very bright sounding. Their other song, "Cousins," is much more fast paced, and one of my favorite songs by them. The entire album is just amazing, and is unlike anything I've heard before. I definitely recommend it to anyone who likes something a little different. Here's the band's page right here.

Creed - Full Circle

After the long eight year wait, Creed finally releases their fourth album ,"Full Circle." I think this album is so great because of how they bring back their sound from old Creed albums, and also show a much more heavier side of them, and is just amazing sounding. The album starts off with an amazing song, "Overcome." This is my favorite song from the album because of the great guitar. The next song, "Bread of Shame," is another one of my favorites because of the lyrics in it. The songs "A Thousand Faces" and "Rain" are softer songs, and are also very good songs because of bringing back old sounds of their past albums. I like the song "Fear" alot because of its very heavy, big sounding guitar riffs in it. I as well liked their album named song, "Full Circle" because of their unique sounding guitar part, and it sounds different from all of their other songs. I really recommend buying this album.
