Review:

This 16-song retrospective is a stripped down review of the band’s rich past with a glance into the future. Featuring rich vocals, honed melodies, and defined instrumentation, “BTA” offers much to not only the band’s core fan base (the HazelNuts), but also to those yet to be converted.

Review:

Naturally, the best of both the David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar years, with three “new” tracks thrown in for good measure. Woulda been nice if the tracks were in chronological order though, instead of no order whatsoever.

Review:

A live psuedo-acoustic (drums and keyboards on some songs!) album recorded on February 18, 2003 at Smith’s Olde Bar in Atlanta (opening for Lisa Loeb) that features songs from Carousel and Blackbird On A Lonely Wire. I’ve had the mp3’s forever, but what makes owning the CD awesome, is that I have no idea how it ended up at Record Archive in the first place. This CD is *impossible* to find on the Internet. Anywhere.

KsE is back with a bit heavier answer to As Daylight Dies. While I liked that album a lot, I think I’m going to like this one better. One of the top guns in the American metalcore scene strike gold again!

Yep, I think George Michael is a very talented singer, and some of these songs still draw a big reaction even today. I don’t claim to be familiar with each and every song on here, but GM makes for a nice change of pace every once in awhile.

Review:

Stolen from Amazon:
Imagine being able to concoct a musical Frankenstein out of some of the best hard rock and metal bands out there today. Take your pick of the strongest appendages off of the most maniacal and well-known bands from the past decade and stitching them together with a strong, fibrous, passion for kick ass rock n roll. Guitarist Clint Lowery (Sevendust), drummer Will Hunt (Evanescence), guitarist Troy McLawhorn ( Evanescence) vocalist Brett Hestla (Virgos Merlot) and bassist Corey Lowery (Eye Empire) have been pieced together to form this rock n roll juggernaut. Fuel it all with the desire to give the fans what they so deserve, and you have Dark New Days new album, New Tradition. And let me tell you, you better run and hide because this album is all killer, no filler.
