I gotta date with the night and a fever to tell. by tjhassecrets Pros: Original, emotional, skilled yet raw.
Cons: Some songs are better than others. =You can keep your black tongueI found at the mortuary=Punk is dead. It's been dead since the end of the 70s when The Police, Blondie, and The Ramones went mainstream. In the 90s, there was grunge. And then Hole and Nirvana got ...

Some Great Songs and Some Not So Great Songs by groove1 Pros: The songs that are good are very good.
Cons: The songs that are bad are not very good :) When I first heard Sublime's "What I Got" from this, their third and self-titled full length CD in the mid 1990s, I did not like it. I don't know why I didn't like but it just seemed to get on my nerves so I didn't listen to any of their other ...

He started something, alright. by curryjacket14 Pros: It's a timeless album filled with pumping songs of love and paranoia.
Cons: A couple of the ballads don't "cut it" for me. Okay, so I've owned songs off of this album in digital form for over a year now- all except "P.Y.T" and "The Lady In My Life", which are two of my least favorite cuts on the album. Recently, however, I finally got around to buying a hard copy of this ...

Cons: Poor use of the medium Back when I was in college, I heard an incredible song. It was a wonderful blending of vocals, instrumentals and decent lyrics. I was taken with it. Then, one day, I was hanging around the dorms my first year of college and I heard the song begin to ...

And the World is Made of Energy! by starcollector Pros: Just a load of great, heavily orchestrated ELO-like pop songs.
Cons: I don't understand the purpose of those cluttery small tracks. (Disclaimer: Those looking for a brief description of the album will find what their looking for in the "Review Body" section. The section titled "Track Reviews" is meant only for those who want to read detailed descriptions of the songs, and ...

A voyeuristic, shiney, plastic debut release from The Killers -- Hot Fuss. by tjhassecrets Pros: The hooks! That super cool 80s sound updated for 2004.
Cons: They never lived up to it. =We're all the same And love is blind The sun is gone Before it shines =When The Killers hit the scene in 2004 nobody could have foreseen the massive impact they would have on the charts, the radios, and my eardrums. I ...

"...and I'm hyped, for the CRITICAL BEATDOWN!" by pirate_captain Pros: Genius production and lyrically both MCs shine at times.
Cons: No subject matter apart from battling... Ultramagnetic MCs is a hip-hop group from the Bronx section of New York. The members are MC/producer Ced Gee, DJ/producers Moe Luv and TR Love plus of course the main rapper and hip-hop's biggest weirdo, Kool Keith. 1988 was a big year in hip-hop and ...

The Album That Spawned The Spin-offs, “Foiled” By Blue October Still Rocks. by wlswarts Pros: Generally good lyrics, Decent, independent sound
Cons: There are more complete versions on the market. One of the nice things about being married for me has to be how I keep discovering new and different things and how my partner and I are able to share things we like with one another. In my case, because my partner moved from Michigan to live with me ...

Clean, convenient, and friendly- here's a difference you'll enjoy by pyfr Pros: As was/is the case with all of their stuff, it's hard to pin down.
Cons: For a band that delighted in challenging listeners, this is a low point. Because nobody else on the planet seems to have any interest in writing reviews of This Heat, I guess I'll take it upon my shoulders to churn out another one. After this one, all that's left is the box set. The good news about this release, ...

We're still at odds in the middle of the afternoon. by divad23 Pros: The theme of conflict is explored well; nice to hear musical references back to (m)orning.
Cons: The segues and jam sessions take up a bit more space than they need to. Have you ever made New Year's resolutions, and done your best to keep them throughout the year, only to be stymied by unforeseen circumstances? The members of Mae must be feeling a bit of the disappointment that comes with the realization of a ...

Someone Needs to Pay the Power Bill...The Wattage on this Electricity is Low by insomniac1587 Pros: some of the nicest production I've heard in a while
Cons: inauthentic, vulgar just to draw attention, too long, faux feminist With the break-up of Making the Band alum Danity Kane, the "hiatus" of burlesque quintet Pussycat Dolls, and the shadow of Destiny's Child lingering, there's been a noticeable lack of girl groups in pop/r&b. It seems that since the Houston ...

For Fans of Sarah McLachlan and/or Electronic Dance Music by groove1 Pros: These are the best of the best remixes of Sarah's songs.
Cons: One song is not good. In the mid to late 1990s two things were popular - electronic dance music and women's music. I remember going to rave parties and my female friends talking about going to Lilith Fair - the outdoor women's music festival. It was only a matter ...

A lack of 1990s material. =Love Only in my dreams As real as it may seem It was only in my dreams =I seem to be really into greatest hits collections lately, and I've come to expect that it's nearly impossible to create a good one-- particularly ...

If You Don't Have It Yet, Get "Actually" WITH "Further Listening!" (My 4000th Review!) by wlswarts Pros: An enduring pop album made even better through an extra disc filled with music!
Cons: A bit repetitive in the content. When I started the painful process of culling my audio cassette collection and deciding what to buy as compact discs, I had very few albums that I figured I would want for the rest of my life in the medium which I had slowly been forced to accept. One ...

Nelly Furtado en Espanol es muy bien! Escucha! by Monnie1976 Pros: A wonderful collection of emotional material, Furtado's adventurous spirit.
Cons: Translation work required to know the full meaning. Just when you think you know what Nelly Furtado is going to do next she always surprise you. It’s no secret that Loose was the most successful album of her career. Back in 2006 when I originally reviewed Loose I gave it three stars. I was wrong. ...

Rock And Roll Is Still Alive! Blue October Creates It With "Approaching Normal" by wlswarts Pros: Decent instrumental work, Good lyrics, Generally good sound
