Artist: DMX Title: And Then There Was Label: Def Jam Rating: 8/10 DMX is perhaps the scariest thing on wax. Don’t let that glammed up Marilyn Manson steal your dreams when you have DMX to haunt your nights. And Then There Was X is a street fight in progress. And with three albums in two…

Artist: The Deftones Title: White Pony Label: Maverick Rating: 9/10 Since the release of Around The Fur in 1997, we have seen a lot of hardcore metal bands trying to copy the Deftones’ signature style of slamming riffs and swinging emotional vocals.

Artist: Deckard Title: Stereodreamscape Label: Reprise Rating: 6.5/10 Deckard is a rock band that once called Glasgow, Scotland home.

DDT has uniquely blended rap, ska, punk, and…

Artist: Robbie Williams Title: The Ego Has Landed Label: Capitol Rating: 8/10 More than Robbie’s ego has landed; he’s found that life after his previous band, Take That, isn’t all that bad, and neither is his latest release. Some of the songs were previously released, but this is no matter. Just sit back and enjoy.…

Artist: Wilco Title: Summer Teeth Label: Reprise Rating: 8.5/10 Wilco’s last album, Being There, was successful and received some rave reviews, but their new album will definitely put them on the map. Summer Teeth is refreshing. It is an outstanding effort from the boys in Wilco. The songs written for this record are lyrical masterpieces…
