The title is a nicer way of saying I like the bands, but I never want to hear these songs ever again. In some cases, I don't even want to buy the corresponding albums because I hate these songs so much. The worst part is that these bands play the hits religiously at their shows... Continue Reading →
I Was Terrified of AC/DC’s ‘Highway to Hell,’ But Now I Love It! | Album Review
I went out of order with my AC/DC album reviews, so I already reviewed Powerage (1978) back in June 2020. Feel free to check out that review and see how far I've come with my AC/DC knowledge, haha. The next album on the agenda is Highway to Hell (1979), an album that is the most nostalgic for me. Well,... Continue Reading →
Dio’s ‘5 Classic Albums’ is a Good Start for New Fans! | Box Set Review
I'm no expert on the band Dio. I know that Ronnie James Dio was the lead singer and Vivian Campbell, from Def Leppard, was the lead guitarist at one point, but that's about it. I wouldn't even consider myself a Dio fan. So, why did I buy this set if I'm not a Dio fan?... Continue Reading →
AC/DC’s ‘Let There Be Rock’ is a Solid Rock Record! | Album Review
If you haven't read my review for AC/DC's Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap (1976), go check it out! We are moving on with Let There Be Rock (1977), a classic AC/DC record that fans love! We know the boys love it because most of their setlist comes from that album (and Back in Black (1980)). Right of the bat, the cover... Continue Reading →
Is “Bohemian Rhapsody” Queen’s Best Song?
Bohemian Rhapsody (2018) was playing on TV a few weeks ago, so I thought, "why not talk about Queen"? After all, this band got me into rock music and opened my eyes to bands such as AC/DC, Def Leppard, Scorpions, Boston, and Black Sabbath. Though I don't listen to Queen as much as I did two...

AC/DC’s ‘Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap’ Has Grown on Me! | Album Review
My goal for the Spring semester is to finish reviewing all of AC/DC's international studio album releases. So I'm hoping to cover all of their albums by mid to late March. I reviewed High Voltage (1976) already, so if you haven't already, go check it out! The next album on the list is Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap (1976).... Continue Reading →
AC/DC’s ‘Power Up’ is For Mal! | Album Review
Travel back to the Rock or Bust era. Phil Rudd had to face his demons and couldn't participate in the tour; Brian Johnson had to step out during the fifth leg of the tour or risk hearing loss, and Cliff Williams decided that he had enough. By that point, the only members left were Angus Young and... Continue Reading →
AC/DC’s ‘Stiff Upper Lip Live’ is F**king Awesome! | DVD Review
In May/June of 2020, I was randomly scrolling through YouTube when a concert called "AC/DC Stiff Upper Lip Live" popped into my feed. I thought, "what the heck, I'll give it a shot!" And that concert changed my life, or at least how I feel about AC/DC. I had a few of their songs on... Continue Reading →
My Top Ten Def Leppard Songs
I previously wrote a post titled, My Top Five Def Leppard Songs I Can't Live Without in December 2019, but that was early in my Def Leppard obsession. I've always wanted to write an updated list of my top five Def Leppard songs because a lot can happen in a year, but I never got around to... Continue Reading →
AC/DC Are Not Messing Around on ‘No Bull’! | Blu-ray Review
It was the summer of 2020, and my obsession with AC/DC was at its peak! I've watched enough live footage to know that they are one kick*** live band. I made up my mind that I wanted to buy a concert release, but I had no idea which one to get; I got torn between No... Continue Reading →
