The Mars Volta - De-Loused in the Comatorium
Tuesday, August 28th, 2007If anything ever could bring The Mars Volta to wide audience it would certainly be “De-loused”.

Mark Lanegan - Bubblegum
Thursday, August 23rd, 2007What would it be like to make an album full of clichés and still sound refreshing and cool. Well Mark Lanegan did it with a little help form his friends, and he did it damn well good. Perfect set of heart breaking ballads and furious rockers. Excellent!
