2nd Album Review: 21st Century Breakdown - Green Day
Green Day's rock opera and concept album 21st Century Breakdown won a Grammy for Best Rock Album, at the 52nd Grammy Awards, and I can really see why. The album expresses the discontent and struggles of lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong's life, and the band's view of the 21st century. It is full of references from the band's lives, and the punk tones mixed with rock riffs and influences really brings this concept album together. Armstrong's one of a kind voice really supports this albums message and feelings, and it explores political and social aspects of the 21st century. From the softer,slower tones of 21 Guns to the punk-rock explosion in East Jesus Nowhere, this album breaks down the century we live in through the riffs and vocals of Billie Joe, Mike, and Jason and the drumming of Tre. Five well earned stars.
If haven't heard any of the album, go listen to East Jesus Nowhere. Great song.

Just go listen to them, okay? They sound really good, and if you like the Used then you may like them. They have a rock sound that sounds like Bring Me The Horizon's Sempiternal. Go listen to them, especially their song "Cancer".

1st Album Review: Superunknown - Soundgarden
I listen to a lot of radio, and I am always looking for more music and artists to listen to, and more albums to listen to on repeat. So when I heard Chris Cornell's slightly rusted and twangy voice belting out Spoonman and Black Hole Sun, I knew I had to listen to the full album. The energetic, brisk pace of Let Me Drown to the heavier, darker sound of 4th Of July really shows the range of the album. One of Soundgarden's heaviest albums, this definitely did not disappoint, and now is one of Soundgarden's most iconic albums. If you haven't listened, go listen to Spoonman, and you'll understand the 4 and 1/2 rating of this album.
