My favorite season is upon us. This is when the skies are grey, the days get shorter, the weather is cooler, sleeping gets more satisfying than ever. And besides the sound of rain pouring down your window, there are some other sounds that you may find appealing. This wonderful season influenced songwriters to write some…
While you couldn’t blame Insane Clown Posse, for they’ve never had much discernment or even cared to produce anything of quality, this time Jack White can be accused for adding his contribution to one of the most useless releases in the recent history of music.

Be it about authority, pride, or Christianity, in coats of arms or on flags, the lion has always been a meaningful figure. Music, filled as it is in many ways with symbolism,…
It’s nice to have a song that reminds you of a certain TV show. I’m not a fan of just showing the main title on the screen. Remember Lost? Or, in the latest seasons, even Grey’s Anatomy? It used to have a brilliant theme song, Cosy in the Rocket, which went amazingly well with the…
While the post-mortem hype for Amy Winehouse’s music might have been exaggerated, her vocal abilities and musical contribution will always be held in high esteem, and not only by her fans. Amy’s legacy is not something one can just ignore*, in the light of recent years’ pop music. Her role is to be acknowledged, especially…
No, none of these albums are Buzz Aldrin’s attempts at a greater fame than Neil Armstrong’s, but most of them sure depict variations of the images that made both of them legendary.
