Once upon a time, I was a huge Britney Spears fan. I listened to all her CDs religiously, watched all of her TV performances (and even taped them), went to see her in concert, ran a fan site about her on the internet, and basically…
I was cleaning out my room last week when I ran across a bunch of CDs that sit in the very back of my CD collection. Most of these are the albums that I admit to being quite embarrassed to own; most of which consists…
I’ve always liked Mandy Moore. Despite her disastrous debut album, I’ve always been somewhat interested in Moore’s career. Admittedly, I’m a bigger fan of her acting choices than her music, but I decided to take a chance recently and buy her fourth album, Coverage (released…
The name, Mika (pronounced “mee-ka”), may mean nothing to you, but I’m predicting now that he will be the next big thing. The 23-year-old singer is the UK’s latest import and his glam rock/pop sound is just the kind of upbeat music that everyone’s been…

What do you do when you’re the lead singer of a successful, multi-platinum, Grammy-winning group? Make a solo album, I guess. At least, that’s what Gwen Stefani did.
Fall Out Boy first caught my attention sometime last summer, though the band (Patrick Stump, Pete Wentz, Joe Trohman, Andy Hurley) had been on the indie scene in Chicago since early 2001. With an album and two EPs under their belt, it was about time…
