Standing on The Edge of U2
Say what you want, but U2 are awesome. From the early days right until How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb, U2 have remained a consistently cool rock band, something that many of their peers have struggled to achieve. With 22 Grammy’s behind them, they have proven to be a band to be named for many [...]

A while ago this music video by DragonForce did the rounds on Digg and Stumbleupon. People were posting it on their MySpace and Twitters. If you hadn’t seen it, you sucked. End of story. Well, I feel a bit bad for those of you living in a bunker for fear of the Reds coming, so [...]

Personally, whenever I think of Queen I always remember We Will Rock You. I know it’s because during my earlier years at school, it was always (ALWAYS) the theme song at interschool events. It wasn’t until I grew a little older that I learnt to enjoy Queen, now I can’t get enough. I blame my [...]

Anyone who thinks giant swords, dragons, and epic battles between angels and demons aren’t completely awesome should really re-evaluate their self-worth and general purpose on this planet. Screw Tolkien and his puny Halflings. Power Metal lyricists have penned some truly impressive battles between mythical creatures. Not to mention the amazing guitar riffs too. Some say [...]

Back when the Internet was thought to be the dwelling of hackers, perverts and godless hedonists (wait a minute…), getting your music to the public was more often than not an epic journey of tapes, road trips and memories. Thanks to social networking sites, we can kiss that all goodbye. In the past, avid fans [...]
