Wouldn't expect it from the song title, but it's actually a quality song. The lip-syncing is terrible. Almost seems like a parody song. But really everything holds up in this one. Apparently it was made by the same Gram Parsons of the Byrds, so that's cool. Really nothing to complain about here. Just a simple love song, but everything about it works perfectly. In fact, I'm already re-listening to it. At first, Parson's vocals were kind of grating, but their slightly off tune nature has an odd pull to it. Alright, 10/10, I really liked this one.


The description brings back memories.

Would make for nice background music a TV Show or a Film, but not something I want to listen to as a stand alone piece. Just... nothing to it at all. 2/10

The glitchy stuff combined with the decent beat was promising at first, but it just never went anywhere. Maybe I just haven't listened to enough ****ty dubstep or eurotrash techno to get sick of that kind of stuff, but I was just waiting for the song to go buck wild, and it was pretty much the same thing for the whole song. Not bad as background music, though. 5/10

Metilish and kind of grungy in parts, which was cool. Perhaps it's a bit more random than is necessary. Has elements I might like, but the aimlessness of it all gets a 4/10 from me for now.

Simple Minds - "She's A River"

I don't know if that song was a hit in the Top 40 but it's definitely in the 80s Pop vein, drums are up front, a lot of synths, can't tell if it is a sequencer or bass, (not crazy about the guitars), over-emotive growly vocals. 6/10

Ground breaking when it was released, but kinda meh in comparison to todays ambient/techno stuff. 6/10

6/10 S'a'ight. I've listened to a bit of Cavalera Conspiracy, and while they're the next best thing to Chaos A.D.-era Sepultura, they're still a substitute rather than anything that stands on its own. I definitely dig some of what I've heard though, but this song was kinda dull.

Another metal song for retards. Meh, a decent hook, a bit of a riff, let's go with a 6/10.

With a band name like "Merauder" and a song title like "Master Killer", I think this is a statement to be assumed rather than made explicit. Philistine. And you forgot to post your own video.

Ah, the sweet irony. It's there now.
