Artist name: Nine Inch Nails Album name: Ghosts Label: The Null Corporation Gender: Industrial Rock Release date: March 2, 2008 ZMErating: 5/10 Website: www.nin.com Well boys and girls, it’s here! Since it was announced, we’ve all been (more or less) eagerly expecting it, and now it finally reached us. The new ‘groundbreaking’ album from Nine Inch Nails hit the shelves servers and… well… it sucks! Let’s shed some light, first: I gave it a 5…
The boys are back, and they’re making a grand entrance with both a tour and an album; well, at least they promise they will. With over 10 years since their last studio release, fans are eagerly awaiting the album which is set for April 22, as well as their summer tour. They’re back in the headlines! It’s gonna be called Good To Be Bad and band members seem to be thrilled about it: “The album…
I’ve never been a fan of their attitude, nor of the way they promote themselves, but you have to give them credit for making great music. But they’re nowhere near as good as Oasis as they claim to be, and they still have a lot to work to gain the recognition they claim to deserve. About the following album, band members have (as expected) only great words: at first, Tom Meighan described it as “psychedelic”,…
Things are definetly heating up around Def Leppard, as they have already released the artwork for their new album, “Songs From The Sparkle Lounge”. This is going to be their 14th (!) album, and promises a lot already. It’s set for April 29, containing 11 new songs. I found out how the cover for the album is going to look after reading the folowing statement, which appeared on the band’s official website: “After previously presenting…
Artist name: Missy Higgins Album name: On a Clear Night Label: Eleven/Warner Reprise Gender: Acoustic Rock Release date: February 26, 2008 ZMErating: 9/10 Website: www.missyhiggins.com Missy Higgins is the kind of singer which you just have to love, for several reasons; she writes soulful music, without unnecessary sweets and flowers, her lyrics are actually very deep, without being fake or overly trying to impress but somehow manages to captivate you and take you into her…
That’s right mates, Radiohead is no longer just a noun, it’s also a verb now! It means to offer your CD up as a digital download on the Internet and then ask your buyers to pay how much they think it’s worth it. While Radiohead did manage to create a phenomenon in this music industry, it’s still unclear how this strategy will affect them long term. But one thing’s for sure: record labels should…
Foul language ahead! Proceed with care. Sarah Silverman is a comedian, writer, and actor. Since 2002, she also was involved in a relationship with Jimmy Kimmel, host of the late-night talk show called Jimmy Kimmel Live!. Everything seemed to be going more or less good, but nothing out of the ordinary. That is, until Sarah decided to make this video public, in which well… she says she’s f***ing Matt Damon, and he agrees: Well… that’s…
After releasing their latest album, ‘Echoes, silence, patience & grace’ now they’ve launched a world tour to help promote. In fact they are already on the road and they’re hitting the Forum in Inglewood, California in the next two days. The band will be off to Canada, Japan, Australia and then Europe for most of the spring before returning July 9th in Seattle to start their summer dates. The past year has been quite good…
This is turning into a soap opera already. After they first announced it in February they changed their minds and delayed it, claiming they want to make something great. OK, that’s good, as long as it rocks. Makes sense, good things come to those who wait. But is it that good? Honestly speaking, I have a huge amount of fate in them. As far as I’m concerned, when you think about what kind of music…
After their already legendary O2 gig, they seemed pretty excited about how they were welcomed and how fans were extatic to see them. They seemed to enjoy themselves also, and there were strong rumours about a world tour. Alas, nothing was really stable, and according to a source close to Robert Plant they will not play again together. The Sunday Mirror newspaper quotes an anonymous source as saying that the band have turned down a…
