This album is a real treat along with their other album that I've reviewed which is "The Life Pursuit". I tend to like this album better, because of the song "Sleep the Clock Around" which is one of my favorite songs ever. This album is just as easy going as the other album and is just a continuation of their other works. Its subject matter really isn't just love lov...

"Bic Ultra Round Stic Grip USA Pen"
The Bic Ultra Round Stic Grip USA pen is quite a wonderful pen. It's cheap, it lasts long, and you don't have to worry about refilling or anything. The pen works quite smoothly, and I rarely have any issues with it. I write many papers, and I trust Bic to not stress me out like other pens do when some random issue occurs. Also, since they come in bulk, when your pen runs out, or if you ...

I got the Treo used from a friend of mine. He had it for about half a year before giving it to me. It worked perfectly for him before hand. He liked to text message and he thought the whole make up of it was quite snazzy. Half a year later, in my hands, the Treo does the exact same for me. The keyboard takes getting used to, but it becomes an advantage when you've dealt with it long enough....

This game is by far my most favorite game ever. The single players story mode is entertaining and can keep a person occupied for days on end in the attempt to get all of the characters unlocked. Also, the music score is entertaining and engaging. What really sets this game apart from most of the other fighting type games though is the multiplayer. The characters are versatile and utilize the wh...

"Neutral Milk Hotel-In the Aeroplane Over the Sea"
This is the singular most cohesive and awesome CD I have in my collection. I have over 60 Gigs of music, and this is the album to beat all albums. The actual genre of this music could be described as Indie Rock, but, really, it's just something you have to experience. Everything ties into itself, the lyricism is intensely imagery based. The horn is absolutely beautiful. The singer is overtl...

This CD was one of my first "metal" CDs and I don't regret having bought it. I enjoyed that so many of the tracks felt cohesive. The vocals meld very well with the instrumentalization. I have to say, though, that it gets old after a little bit. It's not generic metal, but it's nothing special either. It's softer than alot of other metal, so be warned before going for i...

Ace of Base is just happy music. It sounds like something straight out of California and I wouldn't be surprised if it was. The instrumentation, while not that special, consists of your generic pop based stuff. They probably use mixers and synthesizers and what not. What makes this CD special and amazing is the vocals. It's a female singer and she sings about stuff that I don't pay ...

"Against Me! - Cavalier Eternal"
These people are one of the biggest punk rock bands ever. They have a seriously large cult following. Their set-up consists of a main vocalist who sings in an angry voice sometimes and a normal voice at other times, a backup vocalist somewhere in the band, and a female vocalist who basically exists to emphasize the vocals of the main guy. The instrumentalization sounds pretty generically punk t...

Animal Alpha is a new band that I have recently come upon. They are a metal band and they have a female vocalist. It's different than the metal that I am used to and it makes the music much better. Other than the vocalist, the lineup isn't too different than your usual metal band. The instrumentation is about the same too. For me, it's the vocals that really set this band apart. She...

This band is a metal band devoted to using the Cello to convey their music. This stuff is really original and very addicting once you ease into the feel of the band. They play both instrumental songs and vocal songs as well. The instrumental songs, in my opinion, tend to be better, but the vocal songs are interesting and creative in their own right. I love this band, because its originality bas...

This band has had a long standing within the ska world. Even though not all of their music is ska. It's one of the big ska albums of forever in my mind. The album seems to fully encapsulate the very soul of the ska movement in music. Anyways, as for actual tracks and such, they use the trombone and other horn instruments as they should in ska. The voice, is very active and funny in their mu...

This band is one of my favorite bands of all time. This album is also one of my favorite albums of all time. The band itself is Canadian and it would be considered an alternative/indie band. They gained their fame from Bowie endorsing them. The music itself is highly eclectic in that it utilizes a wide variety of instruments from accordians to the regular guitar. They use both male and female v...

This is the next album from the band The Arcade Fire. It was done in a cathedral area hence their use of an organ in this album. This album was not as ground breaking as their best album, funeral, which I regard as a masterpiece. Anyways, this album stands well on its own. It's cohesive like their Funeral album, and it's morose like their Funeral album, still, the tracks are still great...

The subject matter of the musical was adult and dealt with sexual frustrations and life after college frustrations and everything.

I really love this band for its punk style. In general, for me, punk isn't a very special genre of music, because all of the bands tend to sound the same, and it's very hard to find any originality. Well, Bad Relgion is one of those bands. The lyrics are coherent and tend to have a general idea that you can understand (the usual punk subject matters). They're serious about their mus...

This album is the second one created by the Scissor Sisters. They are well known for their outrageously gay main singer and their very disco-revival type music. It's basically very good disco. However, this time around, the album didn't seem to hit home as well with me, because, I guess, they've run out of content or something. Anyways, the music is still enjoyable enough, and it...

My experiences with this album have been mixed. At the first point, I loved the voice of the main vocalist who is a female. The band itself could be classified as metal. Anyways, the vocalist sings in a high-pitched crazy voice which adds much character to everything; in general the originality does a lot for me. The rest of the band is just sort of basic metal, except for the fact that it'...

Belle and Sebastian have been pretty popular in their time among their genre. They are an easy going group, that sings about various subjects such as love, love, and love. But, that's not to say that they don't sing about other stuff, it's just the feeling I get from listening to it. Their voices are really soft and soothing, and I listen to it more for that than the subject matter....
