**i'm a 32 yr old guy who used to listen to Stone Roses, Lush, Smiths, REM, etc. and i was thinking this might be like some of that stuff.. it wasn't..
**Lightness, title and registration and We Looked Like Giants are the only decent songs on this CD.. and Giants is screwed up at the end with that dumb static thing that they did on it.. Lightness is the best song by far- it gives me chills listening to it.. very very good.. but again, it's a short song so as much as you like it it only last 2 mins..
**I don't know how anyone could give this CD 4 or 5 stars.. it is honestly depressing.. Transatlanticism, the song, has some good points to it but it is overwhelmingly sappy and slow.
This band is loaded i'm sure.. i'd be curious ... Read More:

THE CHRISTMAS ATTIC marked the second CD release by the Christmas rock-opera sensation, Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Most of the good stuff from the first album, CHRISTMAS EVE AND OTHER STORIES, but it seems to lack in substance. Very little of the music herein echoes the astounding quality of CHRISTMAS EVE AND OTHER STORIES. Certainly the exceptions would the very beautiful "Christmas Canon" (a children's chorus singing to the tune of Pachelbel's "Canon in D") and "Joy / Angels We Have Heard on High" (consisting in addition to the latter title, also an electric guitar solo of Bach's "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring").
Likewise, "Midnight Christmas Eve" and "Appalachian Snowfall" are enjoyable light rock instrumentals, but they have nothing ... Read More:

Amazing from song one to eleven...front lady Haley Williams totally delivers, emotionally as well as vocally. The band is phenomenal, and every element just melds so nicely with each other. Widely well-received songs are just the beginning, then the others blow your socks off unexpectedly...one of the only CDs that I can turn on and then walk away without track flipping. Paramore is what you're looking for!

A coworker of mine got a copy of this box set, and I wasn't overly familiar with Roy's music beforehand. Still, I'm always open to listening to new stuff, and checked it out and LOVED it! There's an almost overwhelming amount of material here, and every time I go back to listen to this, I hear something new.
The book that comes with the set does a great job of covering every part of Roy's career, which starts with a heart-felt intro from Barbara Orbison, Roy's widow. She was the driving force to get this box set made, and it shows that this was a labor of love for everyone involved. Tons of demos, live recordings, and little-known alternate mixes are present, as well as all the hits that everyone knows (even if they didn't know it was a Roy ... Read More:

I had never heard of Dar Williams before hearing an interview with her on NPR. Intrigued by the pieces of songs played as part of that interview, I bought Promised Land.
It contains a wonderfully varied set of songs, all with interesting settings and well sung. Williams has a wonderful voice that she uses well to enhance both the sound her music and the meaning behind the lyrics -- although sometimes that makes it hard to hear the exact words. I quickly found myself singing parts of them to myself during the day, Some, like "The Business of Things" can really stay with you.
As a university professor of psychology, I was bowled over the first time I heard "Buzzer." I can think of know other recording based on a psychology experiment, ... Read More:

I bought this album, thinking that i do like raconteurs, but i thought that their first album had a few dud songs on it. This one really hits the spot after (for me) a year of searching for an album i can just put on and listen to the whole thing with out being tempted to fast forward through a song or two or three. I really like the first and last songs, and songs 7 & 8. These are four songs that could anchor an album on their own. Overall, my best purchase (of music) of the year.

You can't go back in time. People and music change and you can't listen to an all new 2 CD set by one of the greatest bands ever and expect it to be Hotel California. It's just not gonna happen. All the members of the Eagles went their seperate ways for years and pursued solo projects to varying degrees of succes(most notably Henley) and then reunited for Hell Freezes Over and had recorded a small amount of new material between that and this album. Many of the songs on these 2 cds sound like they could have been recorded in the Eagles heyday while others sound distinctly like the members solo works from years past. This is not a bad thing in my opinion.
My favorites from this album would have to be "No More Walks in the Woods" based on the lyrics of a poem ... Read More:

An arresting set of varied material, done in imaginative production stances, this "dance fever" set catches fire from the onset and only occasionally lets go. A refreshing set of material that can be a real treat to see live. One can only imagine the stage shows! This set seems like some of the missing outtakes of the Talking Heads subset (minus David Byrne), The Tom Tom Club. A world beat/reggae treat. Definitely one of the CDs of the year.
