Please hang up, and try your call again.
To be completely honest? After a few listens…I’m kind of indifferent to this album. If the “Artistic Response” is a good way of judging art…this album is not even in the same category as some of their earlier fare.
That sounded harsh. I think I’m ... More >
Well another year has come and gone. I hardly noticed amongst the piles of soiled diapers, the small bits of food covering every surface of the house and, of course, the screaming child trying to punch me in the face. We are only granted a few moments of silence per day, and I choose to fi... More >
I felt obligated to play thus game, if not for my 20+ year love affair with the original movie (now dubbed Tron Classic), I needed to play this game to help me understand what was missing from Tron Legacy. After 28 years waiting, I guess I should have known it wasn’t going to be perf... More >

The word “supergroup” gets thrown around a lot. Lately there haven’t been a lot of notable bands in this category. Rage Against the Machine minus the rage plus a whole lot of Chris Cornell, good for one album but I ... More >
I must admit that I have always viewed Muse as a poor-man’s Radiohead circa 1995. I always thought lead singer Matthew Bellamy listened to The Bends one too many times and just thought ... More >
