I try not to hold grudges. The past is the past, forgive and forget, all that jazz. Though I must say I’m still a teeny bit mad- okay, absolutely livid- about the fact that Kings of Leon cancelled their show that I was going to…
Call me biased, but I’m seriously starting to fall under the opinion that Radiohead‘s frontman, Thom Yorke, is a genius. Of course, there’s all the stellar Radiohead albums that he’s contributed to (including, of course, my favourite album, In Rainbows), but one can never be…
Okay, I am painfully aware of the fact that I’m a twenty-two year old woman (and now I feel even older upon realizing that I first started writing for Epinions when I was thirteen. Where does the time go?!). I am painfully aware of the…
When I think of my favorite groups, Incubus is usually quite high up on the list. I fell in love with the five-part, Calabasas-based rock band when I was in middle school, but their music has guided me past those angst-ridden years (oh, and were…
I’m always on the lookout for new music. Even though I have a rather large music collection, I tend to tire of listening to the same music over and over again (except when it comes to my favorites, of course), so it’s not unusual for…

I’ve always had a sort of up and down relationship with Jason Mraz and his music. His debut CD, Waiting For My Rocket To Come impressed me greatly, while his 2005 follow up, Mr. A-Z, well…failed to do so. I still called myself a fan…
Radiohead is one of many bands that I’ve heard mentioned numerous times over the years, but have always sort of ignored. Sure, I could sing along with the chorus to Creep, and I was even familiar with songs like High & Dry and Kid A…
It wasn’t until earlier this year that I began to call myself a fan of Alicia Keys, but the R&B songstress has been on the music scene since early 2001. Keys released her debut album, Songs In A Minor in June of that year and…
Ah, pop music. You gotta love it. It’s upbeat, it’s fun, it’s catchy, it’s usually sung by incredibly attractive people- what more could you ask for? Well, sure- tends to lack in well-written or in-depth lyrics, and sometimes flirts with being too over-the-top, overproduced or…
