just for fun and because I am listening to Coheed and Cambria right now, one of their albums is called: Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume One: From Fear Through The Eyes of Madness which was followed by: Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume Two: No World For Tomorrow which are both ridicuously long titles, but maybe you know something to top them? other than that I like to listen to: The Fear Is Excruciating, But Therein Lies The Answer by Red Sparowes this one would be my personal runner up, but they (the Red Sparoews) have those pretty lenghty song titles, like: Buildings Began to Stretch Wide Across the Sky, And the Air Filled with a Reddish Glow or Mechan…

A study of more than 36,000 people from around the world concluded that musical tastes and personality type were closely related. The research, which was carried out by Professor Adrian North of Heriot Watt University, Edinburgh in the UK suggested classical music fans were shy, while heavy metal fans were gentle and at ease with themselves. Fans of Indie music had low self-esteem and were not hard working, fans of Rap music had high self-esteem and were outgoing. Country & Western fans were hardworking and outgoing, Reggae fans were creative but not hardworking, and fans of chart pop had high self-esteem, were not creative, but where hardworking and outgoing. Which…

I think there's something really captivating about cover songs. They're often atrocious, but sometimes wonderful, and more often than not give you a different perspective of a song when an artist can inject their own style and personality into it. So basically what I'd like to do is gather a bunch of nominations, then give everyone the chance to vote on how much they like or dislike them. I'm thinking that it will go something like this: - One song (two versions) per round - Both versions of the song will be provided via YouTube to give those unfamiliar with the songs a chance to rate them - You give an objective rating of the original song out of 10, on its own merit…

After watching this vid, I'd like to know... do you agree? CAUSE I DO! "Can we pretend these fucking shorts are a hamburger cause I'm fucking hungry."

Hi friends, It's monsoon here.. Just wanted to know what's your choice of music for the monsoons... Songs shouldn't be necessarily about Monsoon, but somehting that makes it a comfortable feeling (No idea how to explain this)

Were the Misfits better with or without Glen Danzig as the frontman?

both can be called the grandfater of heavy metal, but which really rocked harder and stayed true to their metal roots?

Rihanna fans are again talking about her, but this time it is not about her songs. It is her new look that had brought her into limelight. The singer wowed her fans with a variety of spectacular outfits as she kicked off her European tour. Rihanna's "Rude Boy" led Billboard's Hot 100 singles chart for a fifth week on Thursday, once again fending off runner-up "Nothin' on You" by B.o.B featuring Bruno Mars. Rihanna tour starts on April 19th Hallenstadion, Zurich, Zurich. She has been added her name to music's biggest show of girl power and she will be part of this summer's Lilith Fair festival tour. The R&B star will make a special appearance at Lilith’s Salt Lake Cit…
