If I could just leave my body for the night by GregRadiohead Pros: An electronic/psychedelic masterpiece
Cons: NONE How often do you really listen to an album and your opinion ends up completely changing on it?? Normally my take away of an album is generally in line with my first impression, if a bit stronger. If I don't like it on the first spin I usually end ...

What did she have to prove on this album? by tjhassecrets Pros: Some great material and some good material.
Cons: Some of the worst material of her entire career-- and that includes her 1977 debut. I don't know how to start writing about Björk's incredible discography. With every new album, she experiments and creates some of the best music ever to grace my highly picky ears. Her instrumentation (or lack thereof) is greeted by Björk's ...

Rage From the Machine by PacManY2J Pros: Loud, fast, epic, pure metal
Cons: none In the song "Wolves" from their latest album The Blackening, Machine Head sing about the viscious struggle to dominate the world of heavy metal. Judging by this album packed with wild epics and perfect seesaws between soft and brutal, I'd ...

Solid debut, a gorgeous voice, and a really nice guy by violet4ever  Pros: David's gorgeous voice, variety of pop styles, clean pop music for everyone.
Cons: Post-production music and effects in overdone in some songs. I love this kid's voice. David Archuleta amazed me on Idol and his pop debut shows how versatile he is as a singer. I have a lot of favorites on this album besides his hit single Crush. My personal favorites are My Hands with its syncopation and ...

Bustin’ Out of the Funk: Rick James Delivers His Definitive Statement by balogun Pros: Rick James’ magnum opus, period.
Cons: It sucks that he plummeted afterwards. Rick James could easily been a mere footnote in music history, or so I believe. Yeah, there were sparks here and there—the blazing (pun intended) masterpiece “Mary Jane” is the ancestor of weed rap songs everywhere—but for the ...

A Teen R&B Queen On Top of the World: Brandy's "Never Say Never" by speeddemon531 Pros: Some killer singles are to be found on this album.
Cons: Covering Bryan Adams? REALLY? Before there was Britney, Christina and Jessica, there was Aaliyah, Monica and Brandy. These three teenagers took the R&B world by storm in 1994-1995. Aaliyah was the cool, mysterious one. Monica was the "too-grown-for-her-age" one, and Brandy was ...

Anghellic: Crap, He Beat Me to the "Witty Title" Part of the Review...... by mastaghostface Pros: Amazing delivery and lyricism; beats are good and dark; pretty much everything
Cons: some filler; main premise feels irrelavent; objectification of women may be an issue for some While browsing music Choice one fateful day, I saw the song “Bout to Bubble”. The name odd enough, I looked at the name of the artist, seeing “Tech N9ne” and thinking “well, here’s another gangsta rapper, who uses ...

Teenage Fanclub's Bandwagonesque: Helene's 90's Rock Nostalgia Trip, Part 5 by helenekhoffman Pros: An appealing addition to the power pop canon.
Cons: I can't recall an album with more modest charms receiving such hysterical overpraise. In 1991, Nirvana's hair band slaying cultural touchstone Nevermind wasn't the only album being breathlessly hyped by the powers that be. Remember Teenage Fanclub's Bandwagonesque? You can be ...

Not a bad collection of shows from the series. by wrldtravler Pros: Features some non-mainstream tracks from very good artists.
Cons: Would be better if it didn't switch styles in the middle. HBO has always done a great job of picking songs for its shows. The Sopranos was known for putting songs into the show that almost perfectly complimented the scenes. The best example is Journey's song which ended the series. It is hard to hear that song ...

Britney's "Circus" Rolls Into Town - But Is She the Ringleader or the Freakshow? by floatingcity Pros: The opening half is fun, and "Lace and Leather" has some great moments.
Cons: The poor material is really weak, and the album's overall sound is too homogenised. To say that the past couple of years have been chaotic for Britney Spears would be quite an understatement, with mass media attention having focused on her spectacular fall from teen-pop idol to frankly disturbing trainwreck. With the past humour ...

Jamie Foxx follows his intuition....and Neyo's, Justin Timberlake's and T-Pain's. by Monnie1976 Pros: Some great songs, Foxx has good vocals
Cons: Too much trend pimping, another Lil' Wayne cameo, juvenile topics, bad sex metaphors. When Jamie Foxx released his new millenium debut (his original debut is forgotten for the most part) with Clive Davis he surprised me a little bit. Even now I’m still spinning several of the songs on Unpredictable all though a good portion of the ...

PIANO/HAMMOND ORGAN DUO PRODUCES GREAT JAZZ by mike.holmes Pros: Incredible playing by both musicians on a swinging group of songs.

Cons: umm...I've been an idiot and haven't discovered him till now. Where the hell have I been? This is the question I asked myself as I recently checked out the FIFTH album from highly respected soul singer Anthony Hamilton. He was always one of those artists I was trying to get around to but kept getting ...

Kanye Starts Graduate School by cashclay Pros: Very succinct, great production, wide range of vocal deliveries.
Cons: Lack of topic variety, bad guests, Kanye isn’t nearly as personable as he normally is. On the cover of 808s & Heartbreak, Kanye West’s fourth album, there is a deflated, heart-shaped balloon that symbolizes pain and suffering—and heartbreak, of course. If anyone knows pain and suffering, it’s Kanye, who, in the ...
