This is a review for the new HipHop/Dance hit song “Turn Down for What”. This song is by DJ Snake and Li’l Jon. I was surprised with how much I actually liked this song. In fact, I actually loved it. This is exactly what you would assume a Li’l Jon song to be: just him […]
For over ten years, four band mates in Manchester have been waiting for the right time, and generation to make their musical appearance. Since the age of 14, Matthew Healy (lead singer, guitarist) and his group of misfits, George Daniel (drummer), Adam Hann (guitarist), and Ross MacDonald (bass guitar) have been a band. Since the […]
John Mayer. What do you think of when you hear his name? Beautiful Voice. Guitar. Pretty Boy. That’s what I think of. Ever since his hit “Daughters”, he has held every teenager’s (and some older women’s) heart in his hands. With his sultry voice and excellent lyrics, he can take the world by storm. And […]
Odysseus was a man who was identified for each his good and dangerous management qualities. Homer, the blind poet and the creator of ‘the Odysseus’ has portrayed Odysseus as an ambiguous character. Nevertheless, for my part and on this argument Odysseus have extra good management qualities than dangerous management qualities. All through this epic, readers […]
Glory of Women, by Siegfried Sassoon, is an Italian sonnet with an rhyming pattern. In general, the poet addresses women and uses juxtaposition- what the women think war is and what it really is. This poem is very sarcastic. It marks the beginning of anti-women literature. Men resented the fact that they had to fight […]

This collection defines the group and how they got to be wherethey are. The two-disc album contains some of their early punk […]
On the opening track of her new album, Jukebox, released on January 22, 2008, Cat Power belts, “these vagabond shoes/are melting away” with just as much believability as Frank Sinatra, who made the song famous. Born in 1972 in small-town Georgia, Charlyn “Chan” Marshall, under her alias of Cat Power, brings a new definition to […]
MusicThe Melvins – “Houdini” If any of you have ever heard of the Melvins, it is probably because they grew up alongside the fellows who would eventually become Nirvana in Aberdeen, Washington. It is indeed unfortunate that most people wouldn’t bother giving this band a moment’s notice if it weren’t for their geographic location (they […]
Grey Eye Glances is an extraordinary group of musicianswith harmonious music and chilling lyrics. “Eventide,” their firstrecording with Mercury Records, is certainly proof of this. The band, whogot its name from an Edgar Allan Poe poem, started in 1994 and consists ofJennifer Nobel (lead vocals and 12-string guitar), Eric O’Dell (background vocalsand bass guitar) and […]
Heavy metal. When people hear those words, they think of loud, fast drumming with raucous guitar and a growling, animalistic baritone vocal. This is not Bruce Dickinson. From the first seconds of the introductory track, “Mars Within,” it is obvious that “Tyranny of Souls” is not an average metal record. The operatic tenor vocals and […]
