Spring Break
11/17/06 - There's something altogether comfortable about Damien Rice's sophomore album, 9, released this past Tuesday. The 10-track album, which leaked to file sharers worldwide in late October, has managed to reach No. 5 on iTunes top albums list and has been climbing the sales lists on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
11/17/06 - Compelled to subject their music with thoughts of destruction, fury and despair, the Deftones have created something so dark and diabolically delightful on Saturday Night Wrist that fans are questioning how on Earth this band accomplished such a feat.
11/17/06 - Halloween marked the release of the Deftones latest album, Saturday Night Wrist. This is the fifth full-length release by the Deftones. It seems to be a crossbreed of alternative melodies and "emo" singing styles. "Hole in the Earth," one of the singles, is a good example of this.
11/17/06 - You'd probably expect a band with a name like …And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead to be some dark screamo band. That's what I thought before I heard their music, but their sound could be compared to a combination of Sigur Rós with a touch of The Decemberists and The Mars Volta.
11/17/06 - The Living End, a three-piece band from Melbourne, Australia, released their fourth album, State of Emergency, with Adeline Records this past July. The Living End combines various genres of rock, such as rockabilly, punk and alternative, with some hints of ska and classic rock undertones.
11/17/06 - Who is Jamie Lidell? This was the question I was asking myself when I first got his new CD, Multiply, released by Warp Records. Many people say Lidell was the musical sensation of 2005, and maybe even 2006, at least according to a press release by Warp.
