This list has been around for awhile (first published in 2005)… But I know that you are always trying to find music that you have never heard or are interested in exploring to find that album that you just can live without or you just want to validate your taste in music. 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die is a great place to start and study. I, for one, have found quite a few albums that I didn’t know about before and am truly enjoying now (such as Flamin’ Groovies – Teenage...

Boys and girls, it’s that time again. The Bonnaroo Festival has announced the initial line up for the 2010 festivities. There are not a lot of surprises here, but a good strong line up to start with. I think Dave Matthews is one of the stalwarts of the festival and I’m always happy to see him on the list. Honestly, I’m liking that Jeff Beck is on the bill (I hope he brings his bass player) along with Steve Martin and GWAR.
I’m thinking that I would like to see an extended...

Pummeling drums, sludgy drop-tuned guitars, a keyboard breakdown without a hint of irony and even the pre-natal heartbeat of bassist/vocalist Ryan Dowd’s son – such is the genetic makeup of Dogs of Winter’s latest release, “Rock N Roll Creation”
Initially released as a part of Coverville.com’s “Unhenged” compilation (released in time for the film’s 25th anniversary and reportedly the world’s first Spinal Tap tribute album), “Rock N...

One of the greatest albums of all time, Dark Side of the Moon from Pink Floyd has been covered yet again. This time it’s the Flaming Lips that take a stab at it.
Here’s a quick fact check on Dark Side of the Moon: The album was released in 1973 as the 6th studio effort from the British progressive band. The album is listed in the top 25 of the best selling albums of all time in the US and number 6 in the UK. While the album only spent one week at the number one spot on Billboard it remained in...

I am a busy guy these days and my lack of free time has made me a cranky one as well. Anything that may seemingly waste my limited leisure is something to be damned to the darkest recesses of hell. So when I was presented with the opportunity to review an album for Rock n Roll View I accepted half-heartedly, knowing I would have to devote at the least a modicum of attention to the material. Imagine my elation whenever I opened the promotional package and found that in fact it was...

Here is the music video for “So Unkind” from “the best band on the south coast of England today…” You’re gonna dig this video from the sexy legs with hot boots, to the pole dancing, strobing lights, tight asses, and dirty slide guitar.
We posted a review of Live from Voodoo Vegas. Here’s a excerpt:
“Now, we get to some serous boogie woogie and slide guitar with “So Unkind.” This is a song about a girlfriend that should have been punched and dumped. You can...

I’ve always considered myself a guy who could pick out rock bands that were going places. Let me give you some historical examples: I thought Metallica would sell a couple of records on hearing Ride the Lightning. The first time I heard the intro scream of “Welcome to the Jungle”, I thought the new Led Zeppelin had arrived. I picked Sound Garden and Jane’s Addiction. More recently I picked Buck Cherry, The Darkness, and the Answer. I’m not saying that I’m Rick Rubin or anything, but bands...

David Gray has been around for awhile to put it modestly. With his album White Ladder he broke the record for the most albums sold in Ireland’s history (not U2, Thin Lizzy, or Michael Jackson). Scoring hits on both sides of the Atlantic, this man from Manchester, UK has slowly but surely has made a name for himself in Europe and the US.
So why am I just now hearing about him? I mean a guy who has seven albums under his belt and to say he is pretty big in Ireland would be somewhat of an understatement,...
