Division(more) »rank: 1159by: 10 Years
:Album Description:Creativity isn't manufactured on an assembly line. It can't be scheduled or forced and when it's not coming there's nothing to do but wait. That's what the members of Knoxville, Tennessee quintet, 10 Years, discovered when they started writing songs for their second album, Division, the follow-up to their debut The Autumn Effect. Having spent the better part of two years on the road, the band members planned in October 2006 to take a month off and then dive back into writing mode. They aimed to re-enter the studio in early 2007 and have ... |

Silver Side Up(more) »rank: 1147by: Nickelback
: :Following Staind's footsteps, Nickelback make the personal public and vent a history of frustration and resentment to melodic hard rock. The band's second album, Silver Side Up, starts with 'Never Again,' an angry tirade against domestic violence that sheds light on the issue without too much sap or sentiment. The album's catchy radio hit 'How You Remind Me' and the song 'Woke Up This Morning' tell of rotting relationships, while other tracks touch on damaged hope and lost dreams. The post-grunge, alt-metal combo backing these songs packs as strong a punch as the lyrical material, ... |

Pyromania(more) »rank: 1135by: Def Leppard
:Album Description:Japanese-only SHM-CD (Super High Material CD) pressing of this classic 1983 album from the Rock legends. SHM-CDs can be played on any audio player and delivers unbelievably high-quality sound. You won't believe it's the same CD! Universal. 2008. :Def Leppard's rock sensibilities shot them right to the top of the charts in the '80s. On their third album, Pyromania, the band reconciled new wave melodicism with heavy metal and catchy hooks without compromising any of its edge. The album has sold over 10 million copies, due in part to heavy rotation on MTV. But ... |

Evil Empire(more) »rank: 1729by: Rage Against the Machine
: :As the vitriol spewed from Evil Empire, Rage Against the Machine's long-awaited follow up to their 1993 debut owes much to Chuck D.'s polemic fury and rapid-fire urgency--though as always the band rages without hip-hop machinery in favor of the heavy-duty power tools of rock. But no matter if Rage against the Machine amounts to revolutionary rap, protest metal, or a combination of the two, the band's command of sonic rage makes Evil Empire a powerful assault in any musical language. But wait, there's more to the name. Raging against the machine, like yelling at ... |

MTV Unplugged in New York(more) »rank: 2425by: Nirvana
:Album Description:Japanese only SHM-CD (Super High Material CD - playable on all CD players) pressing. Universal. 2008. essential recording:The last Nirvana collection recorded before the untimely death of Kurt Cobain, Unplugged caught many by surprise with its stripped down, neo-acoustic offerings with a bridled fury. When Cobain sings, 'I swear I don't have a gun, I don't have a gun' with clenched teeth (instead of an open howl) and when the haunting strains of 'About a Girl'--from their earliest LP--chills even with quieted guitars, you discover a new appreciation for the nuances of one ... |

Thank You(more) »rank: 976by: Stone Temple Pilots
:Album Description:From their arrival in 1992 with the 8x-platinum 'CORE,' Stone Temple Pilots have consistently been among the forefront of modern rock ānā roll artists. With each album, the California-based quartet - Scott Weiland, Dean DeLeo, Robert DeLeo, and Eric Kretz - has pursued their own unique musical vision, an inspired sonic approach merging metallic riffs and baroque pop melodies with a punk-fuelled energy and a gift for psychedelic experimentation. As a result, Stone Temple Pilots have sold more than 20 million albums worldwide, and they rank among the top three most successful bands to ... |

Siamese Dream(more) »rank: 1182by: Smashing Pumpkins
: essential recording:An introductory drum roll drops out and is replaced by a single suspended electric guitar, which is then paralleled by a snare, filled in with the bass, and--crash!--'Cherub Rock,' the opening track, is enveloped in an explosion of metal guitar. So the journey begins. This album is pre-experimentation vintage Pumpkins. Produced by Butch Vig (Garbage, Sonic Youth, Nirvana's Nevermind), Siamese Dream is first about guitars. Lots and lots of guitars. A very close second is Jimmy Chamberlain's unquestionably excellent power drumming. Throughout each song, Billy Corgan delivers angsty lyrics in his signature breathy ... |

Over the course of five pulverizing studio records and countless tours with Slayer, Slipknot, Mudvayne, The Deftones as well as mainstage/side-stage stints on Ozzfest, Connecticut's Hatebreed has built a dedicated fanatical fan base the old fashioned way-- on the road. Touring behind their critically acclaimed last studio record Supremacy, Live Dominance captures the band at the peak of its powers and is the culmination of all the blood, sweat and tears the band has put in over the years. Shot in front of a crazed, sold-out crowd at Harpo's in Detroit, the ... |
