    Ozzy's new album "Scream"

    Honestly, it's his best since Ozzmosis. It has a heaviness that matches that album, and the album before it, No More Tears. It probably has more in common with those two albums than the rest of his catalog. I was really disappointed in Black Rain and Under Cover, I liked Down To Earth but it...

    New Tonic album on May 4th

    For those that remember them, this is the band that had hits like "If You Could Only See," "Lemon Parade," "Head On Straight," "You Wanted More," "Thick", and others. Well, nearly 8 years after their last album, Tonic is releasing their 4th studio album on May 4th. It's simply called...Tonic...

    New Modern English album

    Yeah, I know it's not the same band, but it's pretty much the same band that released 'Everything's Mad', which I liked. Modern English (or the current incarnation of the band) will be releasing their 7th studio album since 1981 on May 24th, 2010. The album is titled 'Soundtrack', and the lead...

    Aerosmith

    Aerosmith are my latest musical 'discovery.' I now have all 14 studio albums, and I've listened to 3/4th of them. They're an amazing band, I love their brand of 'blues related rock.' My current fav is either Rocks or Permanent Vacation.

    Third Eye Blind - Ursa Major

    So the new 3EB album is coming out in 3 days, and it's already leaked. I've been listening to it a lot lately, and I think it's a great rock album, their strongest since Blue. Any other interferencers heard the new album, and if so, what do you think of it? And please don't slam the band. I'm...

    Stores going out of business

    I rarely go into stores anymore, since I have no money to buy anything. However, I stopped into K-Mart yesterday, and I was completely shocked at how bare the shelves were. I went looking in the entertainment section for a DVD I wanted to buy, and they've pretty much gotten rid of all the DVDs...

    Ncis

    I didn't see a thread on this show, so I thought I'd start one. :) Anyway, anyone else love this show? I'm fairly new to it, since I've only been watching it for a month. I bought the first season on DVD a few weeks ago to catch up. I like all the characters, but Gibbs, Abby, and Ducky are my...

    It seems U2 have pushed back the release date AGAIN...

    I laughed out loud when I saw this. :lol:

    Sheryl Crow, one of the best female musicians around

    Any other Sheryl fans on here? I think she's really talented. To be honest, I thought she had lost it a while with Wildflower (that album was pretty boring), but Detours was one of the best albums of last year. :up: The Globe Sessions is still my favorite from her, 12 years on. :heart:

    The mixing on No Line On The Horizon and Magnificent

    Has anybody else noticed this? The rest of the album mixing is phenomenal, but for some reason, these two songs either seem to be mixed lower or are badly mixed. Magnificent, for one, sounds muffled through my expensive stereo system. I'm hoping that this is because of source material, and that...

    My cat Tori died today

    My cat Tori died today, she was only 3 years old. On Thursday around midnight, I heard her crying underneath a table, vomiting and having trouble breathing. I rushed her to the vet, and they diagnosed her with congestive heart failure. Her lungs were so full of fluid that she couldn't breathe...

    Pure Reason Revolution

    I know you guys probably haven't heard of this band. They're sort of progressive rock - a combination of Pink Floyd, The Smashing Pumpkins, The Beach Boys, and other bands. Their 2006 album, "The Dark Third", was my album of the year for 2006. It's just a great album. I'm sitting here listening...

    I did one of these a couple of years ago

    Hey everyone, I posted an intro thread 2 years ago, but left after I made a few posts, and just came back a few weeks ago. I don't really know anybody here, so I thought I'd start another one and say hello. :) Anyway, my name is Josh, I'm from Ohio, and I'm 26 years old. I've been a U2 fan for...

    Rank the albums

    I did a search for a thread like this, but all the ones I came up with were old and in the archive. How would you rank U2's studio albums? Here's mine: 1. Achtung Baby 2. Zooropa 3. The Joshua Tree 4. October 5. Pop 6. The Unforgettable Fire 7. War 8. All That You Can't Leave Behind 9. How To...

    Who else here thinks October is better than Boy?

    Boy is ok, but it's my least favorite U2 album. I just have trouble getting into it for some reason; I've been that way since I first heard it. It just feels like the songs (except for I Will Follow) are half polished and are a bit boring. October, on the other hand, is one of my favorite...

    How can you tell when you paid a premium membership?

    I haven't been on the site in about a year, and I know that I paid for a premium subscription somewhere along the line, but I honestly can't remember when. :huh: My status reads Premium Gold member, so that means I probably paid for that and I'm still subscribed, but how do you know when it runs...

    My poor ipod!

    It's extremely cold outside, and I just realized this morning (when I was drinking my coffee) that I left my 80 GB ipod outside in the car yesterday. I ran outside a few moments ago, grabbed it, and brought it in. At first, I thought it was just cold, but then I noticed that there was ice (yes...

    Future remasters (Rattle and Hum through the present)

    I'm kind of behind in my U2 news, so this might have been answered already. But are there any current plans to remaster any of U2's other albums (Rattle and Hum, Achtung Baby, Zooropa, Pop, etc?) I don't think the last two really need it, but I'd love to see a remastered and deluxe edition of...

    Any Marillionheads on here?

    Any fans of Marillion on here? I love the band, they're probably my third favorite (after U2 and Radiohead.) All of their albums are excellent, but my top favs are Brave, Afraid Of Sunlight, Marbles, This Strange Engine, and Fugazi. I also saw them live on their 2004 tour, one of the best shows...

    Law and Order CI: New Season

    I couldn't find a thread on this show, so I decided to create one. :) Anyway, any fans around here? What do you think of the new season so far? My thoughts: I missed the last few episodes of the previous season, so I have some catching up to do. It's a shame that Bobby is only on every other...

    New around here

    Hey everyone, I'm a newbie, so I thought I'd introduce myself. My name is Josh, I'm 24, and I've been a u2 fan since my teens, ever since I took Pop out of the library and fell in love with the band. I love all stages of U2, but my favorite period is The Unforgivable Fire through Pop(UF, Joshua...
