hat is good music? This is a terribly difficult question to answer. To some people boy-bands and Britney Spears make bad music yet millions love them. Some don't consider anything loud and noisy to be music but bands like Papa Roach, Linkin Park and Disturbed are becoming increasingly popular.
This is an enduring mystery-something average Joes like us cannot answer.
But we do know what we like and what we don't and we are offering the following explanations:
Drops of Jupiter
MAXFIRE: The band may have felt that putting their lives on paper were terrible and too demanding on their part. At least if they put only one song in print, they still have ten more for themselves. Listening is different as with reading. Ironically though, they provided words for one of the most painful songs I've heard for a long time. >>more |
Weezer
PALSY: Weezer may not send you to deep, self-analyzing and contemplative moments but hey, who needs to be serious anyway? There's much crap out there and singing about it only adds-up to the stink. >>more |
Daft Punk
FUNK_AD: I guess one should try listening to the groove of Daft Punk, the Paris-based house music gurus that first invaded Europe in 1997. >>more
Greyest of Blue Skies
PALSY: The distorted figure on the album cover may say that this band's music is fast and riff-oriented with vocals reminiscent of the thrash era. >>more |
Everything You Want
MASAKARI: For those folks who listen to good music, this album is for you. It will definitely be fixed on your CD player for a long time and you won't regret the money you've spent... >>more |
Lover's Rock
TWOSTAR: This album is a head-trip. The best time to listen to it is when you're alone in your room at night. It is mostly a sad album but a good one nonetheless. >>more |
Whoa, Nelly
PALSY: Nelly Furtado could've been the Brazilian Sheryl Crow crossed with Macy Gray, only dreamier and rhythmic with her debut single I'm Like a Bird. >>more |
Save the Last Dance
PALSY: R&B is what this album is all about. Having watched the movie is not an issue since there are deserving songs on this record, which could make it on their own. >>more |
