Jagged Little Pill

CD-Charts > Music > Alternative Styles
by: Alanis Morissette

Release Date June 13, 1995
I actually bought this CD twice. That's how much I love it. It seems after she made this CD, she became "one" with the universe and is full of love. I don't like any of her other music. This CD shows how the "little people" get walked on. It is full of anger and frustration and how she had to fight to get noticed. I highly recommend it.

Grace

CD-Charts > Music > Alternative Styles
by: Jeff Buckley

Release Date August 23, 1994
All I've heard for almost 15 years now is 'Like, oh my God, Jeff Buckley's music is so, like, beautiful...' Well I decided to drink the Kool-aid and buy the CD- I figured, 'Hey, I like tragic rock stars, I like beautiful music when it's done right. I'll give it a shot.' I'm sorry I can't give a review to all the songs because I was always either asleep or had left the room by song six. He's the classic singer without a song- his lyrics are full of the type of mawkish, frat-boy pathos that sorority girls swoon over and anyone with a brain rolls their eyes or cringes at. He's nothing compared to the Cowboy Junkies or Nick Drake or Elliot Smith or Simon or Garfunkel. I only gave it two stars because it is indeed a good cd if you can't fall asleep. ... Read More:

Begin to Hope

CD-Charts > Music > Alternative Styles
by: Regina Spektor

Release Date June 13, 2006
Begin to Hope has quickly become one of my favorite albums. I love Regina's quirky vocal styles and her lyrics that add depth and poetry. The album starts on a high note of "Fidelity" and continues in smooth transitions and whimsical fashion. Of course, I'm sure the whimsy is more calculated than it comes off as, but Regina is very talented and talent always makes it seem easy. The ever-expanding beats of "On the Radio" make it my favorite on this album.

In Ghost Colours

CD-Charts > Music > Alternative Styles
by: Cut Copy

Release Date April 08, 2008
As much as I liked Bright Like Neon Love with its disco inspired tunes, In Ghost Colors still has the same Cut/Copy feel with a more alternative approach. Great album. Definitely recommend it.

The Sickness

CD-Charts > Music > Alternative Styles
by: Disturbed

Release Date March 07, 2000
Kinda wish Disturbed would have lived up to the awesomeness of their debut CD, I stopped listening to Disturbed after I listened to Believe and 10,000 Fists... Every song on this disk is awesome, and that is rare for a rock group...

Anyone who likes the melvins and fantomas will enjoy this dvd. For those who cannot stomach either band for more than five minutes should stay clear. This is a great live performance.

Only Through the Pain

CD-Charts > Music > Alternative Styles
by: Trapt

Release Date August 05, 2008
I was so excited that Trapt was coming out with a new album full of new material. Their Live album was just an appetizer of what I thought would be a great album. (The 2 new songs on the Live album I loved.) Listening to Only Through The Pain I was pretty disappointed. A couple of the songs were heartfelt ballads which I expected but gone were the hard rock that gets the blood pumping that I came to expect from this band. They have gone the road of mainstream and seem to be trying to appeal to the masses instead of being true to who they really are or used to be. Gave it 3 stars on the hopes that as I listen to it more and more it will grow on me.

American Idiot

CD-Charts > Music > Alternative Styles
by: Green Day

Release Date September 21, 2004
I have heard all the songs on Insomniac and Dookie and loved them.When I got this I was expecting kind of the same music but got totaly different and I like it.They kinda got away from their punk roots but that's fine by me.I love all the songs on here.The only song that I could live without was Rock and Roll Girlfriend segment on Homecoming.My personal favorite song on the album was either Holiday or Saint Jimmy.The lyrics are sometimes hard to understand because of his accent but you can always go on google to see what they are.The guitar,drum,and backup singers all are very talented and do a fantastic job.Recommended to any Green Day fan.

Icky Thump

CD-Charts > Music > Alternative Styles
by: The White Stripes

Release Date June 19, 2007
For me, the White Stripes can do no wrong. And while they didn't do wrong with Icky Thump, they didn't do their best either. If I had to choose a couple cuts to recommend, I'd pick "You Don't Know What Love Is" and "Effect and Cause."
