Modern Music Marvels
Posted by: eEditor on July 21, 2011 02:28 PM
Where can you find one of the Rock Music's top albums? The boys who brought us the very best in funk and rock from the early 90's to present are back with a double album that is as funky as much as it has an unbelievable variety of song writing from beginning to end.....on both albums! Both (named “Jupiter” / “Mars”) equally good in their own rights.....”Stadium Arcadium” has quickly being considered one of their best albums to date! A must have! Listen up for... Jupiter - “Snow” - “Hey” - Mars - “21st Century” & “Turn it Again” and the radio hit “Dani California”
TOOL’s 10,000 Days : New High for the Band The masters of rock’s greatest odd meter catalog have a new album, and like all it’s predecessors, 10,000 Days once again gives us something only TOOL could put on CD. I know it feels almost like the title for how long we’ve waited from Lateralus (their last studio album before Maynard went off to work with A Perfect Circle), but they make it well worth the wait once again. This time we get a concert-like feel for this new record. It starts out with a song that only TOOL could give us, “Vicarious”, and then the rest of the album flows together, with sometimes 4 or 5 minutes of trippy sounds and simple light guitar riffs as tracks solely to set up the next song, which brings the tempo back to normal. A decent album, worth the wait (for it to download). Tune in for...“Vicarious”, “10,000 Days”, and “The Pot”.
Not since “No Code” have we gotten an album of this caliber from the grunge seattle gods. This self-titled 9th studio album features some great grunge style rock songs that we loved them for in the first place; but it also has lots of variation in styles throughout, from the slow/poppy “Parachutes”, to the (almost) Dave Matthews-esque “Inside Job.” Great album, definitely worth the $10 spent on it (.....and fess us Pearl Jam fans, you haven’t really been able to say that for the last three albums!!) Check out: “Parachutes”, “Army Reserve”, and the radio hits “Life Wasted” and “Worldwide Suicide”
