Who says modern rock music sucks? If you were to ask me that a year ago, I would’ve said, “modern rock sucks and rock ‘n’ roll was only good in the 70s/80s.” However, that was before I discovered Rival Sons; a young band from Long Beach, California that formed in 2009. I discovered them through... Continue Reading →
Apparently, Led Zeppelin was a very popular rock band. Years after the band’s break-up, they’re still popular, and fans talk about how their music influenced the world of rock ‘n’ roll. I’ve heard a few of their songs, but I haven’t listened to an entire album by Led Zeppelin. Then, on July 17, 2021, I... Continue Reading →
If you’ve read my review for Whitesnake’s Slip of the Tongue (1989) album, you’d know that I wasn’t pleased with the album. I gave it a rating of 3 out of 5 stars. I thought I was done with Whitesnake for good, but then, I commented my dislike for the album on a Sea of... Continue Reading →
Disclaimer: I'm sorry if I offend any Jon Bon Jovi fans throughout this post, as these are strictly my opinions and Richie Sambora was the reason why I got into Bon Jovi in the first place. Richie Sambora hit it big when he became the guitarist for Bon Jovi. From 1983 to 2013, Sambora helped... Continue Reading →
I previously reviewed AC/DC’s Highway to Hell (1979) album, so if you haven’t already, go check it out! For now, we are shifting focus to the last record I’ll be covering in the AC/DC album review series, Back in Black (1980). The reason why it’s the last in the series is because I already reviewed...

For my last AC/DC review, I gave my thoughts on Ballbreaker (1995), now I'll be looking at Stiff Upper Lip (2000). I bought the Stiff Upper Lip album in June/July; it's all a blur now. The point is, we're here, and I'm ready to share my thoughts on the band's 14th (13th internationally released) studio album. "Stiff Upper Lip" started the... Continue Reading →
AC/DC was "back in business," thanks to the success of 1990s The Razors Edge, which contains "Moneytalks" and "Thunderstruck." It was their first (and only) studio album with drummer Chris Slade; though, he wouldn't last long as fate would have it that the boys would reunite with former drummer Phil Rudd, who left some big shoes...

Stranger In This Town (1991) was the bomb!!! So it only made sense for me to check out Sambora's second studio album, Undiscovered Soul (1998). That particular album is very different from the first one because it incorporates more genres such as country, reggae, rock, pop, etc., but it still centers around blues-rock. Undiscovered Soul was more of a... Continue Reading →
I've already listened to this album like seven times before writing this review, so you can tell I have a lot of good things to say about Richie's debut solo album! Just a little background on him first, Richie Sambora was the lead guitarist for Bon Jovi from 1983 - 2013, he and Jon did... Continue Reading →
