This is the first studio album from Megadeth since bad diagnosis in 1995. A Tout Le Monde one of my best. A Tout Le Monde album is in perfect progression from Megadeth!

In Symphony Of Destruction (Demo) it becomes nowhere more obvious that Megadeth has yet to define own style. Architecture Of Aggression (Demo) gives good insight into the truths. I think New World Order (Demo) is the best song Megadeth has ever done.

The New Plague is a good listen every once in a while. Whargoul - My least favorite song on this album. It is succeeded by an outstanding track, however: Ragnarok, which shows, blatantly, how much GWAR has evolved as a singer. Dirty Filthy which is my favorite is a truly GWAR sounding song. Stalin’s Organs is filled with very deep emotions that will truly touch your heart. The sound of Knife In Yer Guts is difficult to describe, as it seems to squirm in a sensual manner, unlike anything ever created. Think You Outta Know This is a sure sign of something most of us are experiencing, maturity. I have all of GWAR’s tracks and Martyr Dumb is probably the most his introspective effort. Nudged - a classic song. This track is full of harmonies and gets Ragnarok off to a relaxing start. Surf Of Syn is the album’s biggest hit, I think. Crush, Kill, Destroy the elegant and beautiful song on the album is hard to describe. I like the idea behind None But The Brave.

Now signed to Pretty Maids’s Bop Cassettes, the title track from second album “Scream” leads Pretty Maids’s back-to-school campaign. Scream is awesome.

Scream - I used to hate this song, but now it’s one of my favorites. Psycho-Time-Bomb-Planet-Earth is one of the more up-tempo songs on Scream. Voice of Pretty Maids in This Love is honest and guitar work is subtle and poignant. Walk Away is a cool, simple song by Pretty Maids at the top of his game. No Messiah - arguably the best track on Scream album. In A World Of Your Own - isn’t quite as powerful vocally, but has a beautiful melody. I can’t stop playing Don’t Turn Your Sex On Me. One of the songs that always stick in my mind is Adrenaline Junkie because the melody in the chorus is so good. No Pretty Maids song has come close to capturing my attention as Anytime Anywhere did.

I am not a real Metal: Heavy music type of person, but i have to admit ‘Ghost In The Ruins: A Tribute To Criss Oliva’ really is amazing. Ghost In The Ruins: A Tribute To Criss Oliva really suprise for me from Savatage. Savatage is one of my favourite bands of all time.

24 Hours Ago is a medium tempo tune. Legions is flawed, nonetheless pretty good song. Strange Wings is probably one of Savatage’s biggest successes for the album - it’s lovely to listen to. Gutter Ballet is one of the best records ever. When The Crowds Are Gone is a very good song maybe surprisingly better than you at first might’ve imagined. Of Rage and War defines beauty, yet is as unforgiving as an astringent stone. The song The Dungeons Are Calling ending is my favorite… so catchy! I can’t stop humming along Sirens. Hounds has a gorgeous instrumental sound, which lets Savatage’s strong vocals come to the fore. Savatage sings Criss Intro in such a comforting, confident voice that you can’t help but be moved. Hall Of The Mountain King is beautiful, yet underrated track. Post Script is Savatage’s best work in years.

While no new Flotsam and Jetsam album is in sight, the artist has been road testing new songs during 1995 tour in Europe. Flotsam and Jetsam was a flawless and timeless record. Not surprising from Flotsam and Jetsam and Drift together. Enjoy the show.

Empty Air is new, fresh, and hypnotizing. This song could easily nestle itself onto the world top playlists. Music in 12 Year Old With A Gun is perfect as in all tracks of Drift. Missing one of the best in my collection. Blindside (3:35) a good melody. Remember had me crying as I was able to relate so well. Destructive Signs I just LOVE this mix! Musically Smoked Out is superior to other tracks in Drift. In Poet’s Tell the music gets its power.

GZR Plastic Planet mp3

Saturday, September 15th, 2007

GZR Plastic Planet imageNowhere is this more so than on their re-working of GZR on ‘Catatonic Eclipse’. There is so much to love about GZR, starting with incredible harmonies, songwriting chops and stellar stage presence. two years ago, GZR briefly lived up to their terrific name, with an insanely addictive hit single called “Drive Boy, Shooting”. Check it every song is worth the money for the Plastic Planet CD!

Drive Boy, Shooting is almost impossible to review. Giving Up The Ghost is possibly the best song GZR has come up. Plastic Planet is a good listen every once in a while. Don’t judge Invisible on the first listening. GZR is one of artists that allow his songs like Science Fiction to stand on their own and be heard. A fantastic track full of wonder. Detective 27 - This one is lively and fun. X-13 is filled with very deep emotions that will truly touch your heart. It’s also one of those rare songs that touchingly comfort the listener. Cycle Of Sixty is beautiful, yet underrated track.

OverKill Wrecking Your Neck Cd1 mp3

Saturday, September 1st, 2007

OverKill Wrecking Your Neck Cd1 imageLead single “Anxiety” and “Coma” start with near-whispers before kicking into giddily catchy, fuzz box-driven hollered hooks. On Wrecking Your Neck Cd1 album, OverKill have renewed their membership in the ‘if it ain’t broke…’ school of songwriting. six years ago, OverKill briefly lived up to their terrific name, with an insanely addictive hit single called “Coma”. Wrecking Your Neck Cd1 is what good Metal: Heavy should be.

Coma - arguably the best track on Wrecking Your Neck Cd1 album. Elimination (5:06) - Oh, this is one of my favorites! Fast Junkie - I like this one. Hello From The Gutter - isn’t quite as powerful vocally, but has a beautiful melody. Vocal harmonies in this track are great and song structure is just right. Powersurge marked the continuation of OverKill in style evolution. It’s a great pleasure to listen to Skullkrusher from the beginning to the end. This is one hell of a track. Supersonic Hate had me crying as I was able to relate so well. The Wait / New High In Lows is a amazing song and it grows on you. Where It Hurts is filled with very deep emotions that will truly touch your heart. World Of Hurt I just LOVE this mix! Wrecking Crew is really the reason why I recommend buying Wrecking Your Neck Cd1. Bastard Nation - I used to hate this song, but now it’s one of my favorites. Music in Fuck You is amazing as in all tracks of Wrecking Your Neck Cd1. This track is a fabulous selection of easy listening, suitable for any age, taste or occasion. Only one song from Wrecking Your Neck Cd1 named Horrorscope really got me. New Machine is probably one of OverKill’s biggest successes for the album - it’s lovely to listen to. Rotten To The Core is a song that will not reduce you to tears but leave you thinking long after Wrecking Your Neck Cd1 have ended. What sets Thanx For Nothing apart is OverKill’s innovative and organic way of creating atmospheres. Under One is a bit different from OverKill stereotypical stuff.

Megadeth Hidden Treasures mp3

Saturday, August 11th, 2007

Megadeth Hidden Treasures imageYou need to listen Hidden Treasures. It’s really cool. This is the first studio album from Megadeth since bad diagnosis in 1995. On Hidden Treasures album, Megadeth have renewed their membership in the ‘if it ain’t broke…’ school of songwriting. Megadeth is one of my favourite bands of all time.

This track, in particular, has the kind of undeniably catchy flavor. I like the idea behind Go To Hell. Angry Again is marvelous and different song. 99 Ways To Die is the more seemingly obscure song on Hidden Treasures that bear up best to repeated listening. Still going through Hidden Treasures and coming to appreciate Paranoid more and more with every listen. Diadems is a striking and quite long song. Problems is a pleasing, and full of overall coherence that goes beyond other creations.
