U2 Does It Again

In October 2000, rock seemed to be in a slow period. Many of the 90s leading rock bands had either broken up or radically changed direction. The music scene had been overtaken by hordes of teen pop bands and rap-metal frat boys. It was then that those Dublin Bad Boys known as u2 dropped a bomb o...Read more

The Beatles First Masterpiece

A Hard Day’s Night was the first truly classic album the Beatles put out. Not to say that Please Please Me and With The Beatles were bad. Not at all. Both of them had great songs on them. But this was the first Beatles album to show that they were no teen band, this was an important group....Read more

Reviewed Empire - Queensryche

A Rock Empire

If Metallica and Pink Floyd got together and had a child, Queensryche would probably be it. Queensryche arose from Seattle in the mid 1980s, before the city became a musical hot spot. Their music rocked hard like Metallica. But it did not fit in with much of the heavy metal of the time. Instead ...Read more

Rage Deliver Socially Conscious Rock

Rap-Metal as a genre has pretty much become a cliché now. But when Rage Against The Machine first started out in the early 1990s the genre was still new, with only the Beastie Boys being notable in combining the two styles. Then along came a little group from Los Angeles. This group of cour...Read more

I admit it. I still enjoy a good cartoon. Even now at the somewhat more jaded age of 23, I still like to kick back and watch a few episodes of Looney Tunes or The Flintstones or once in awhile even an episode of Scooby Doo. However it got to a point in the mid 90s where the only time you could c...Read more

Money For Nothing And Britney For Free.

I remember when I was first exposed to MTV. It was 1985 and I had gone to my cousin’s house after school. Usually if we had the TV on we watched cartoons. But this day was different. This day, as I came in, I saw a cool image on the screen. The image was a sort of computer animation. What ...Read more

I admit. I myself was something of a latecomer to U2. Achtung Baby was the album that got me into them. I first had a cassette copy of it when it was released in 1991. Then later on when I upgraded to CD I bought Joshua Tree and later Achtung Baby. Achtung Baby was the first album U2 released...Read more
