Album of the Week: Lord of the Lost’s Empyrean

I was browsing YouTube, just selecting various videos related to whatever I was watching at the time, and I came across the song “Raining Stars.” I fell head over heels. I’ve been listening to Lord of the Lost ever since. I chose Empyrean as my album of the week because it contains the aforementioned track.

Album of the Week: American Head Charge’s The War of Art

I decided to pay tribute to American Head Charge this week, to honor their bassist Chad, who passed away recently. I chose The War of Art because my favorite song of theirs — “Just So You Know” — is on this album.

Album of the Week: Danko Jones’ We Sweat Blood

Years ago, I went through a serious obsession with Danko Jones. They are a little quirky, but that’s what I love. And so I give you We Sweat Blood as the album of the week.

Album of the Week: Mindless Self Indulgence’s If

I love If. I can’t even explain it. When I was in college, one of my friends and I would listen to parts of the album every day before our self-defense class. MSI is just so fun!

Album of the Week: Tremonti’s Cauterize

In case you’ve missed the fact that I’m obsessed with Mark Tremonti’s music, both with Alter Bridge and his side project 😉 Cauterize is the heaviest of the Tremonti Project’s albums, so if that’s what you’re hunting for, look no further! Aside from “Fall Again,” my favorite track is “Flying Monkeys.”

Album of the Week: Emilie Autumn’s Opheliac

I’ve had a remix of “Liar” on a CD since forever, but I have only now really begun listening to Emilie Autumn. So far, Opheliac is my favorite of the albums, and the title track is my favorite song.

Album of the Week: Marilyn Manson’s The Pale Emperor

I actually don’t own a copy of The Pale Emperor. I didn’t love “Third Day of a Seven Day Binge,” but I was partial to “The Mephistopheles of Los Angeles.” I guess I should give the whole album a chance…

Album of the Week: Almost Kings’ Forever This Time

I reviewed Forever This Time about a month ago. Long story short, I love this record!

Album of the Week: Third Realm’s Beyond Good and Evil

I stumbled across Third Realm on YouTube, while looking up songs from Aesthetic Perfection. Beyond Good and Evil has one of my favorite Third Realm tracks on it, “Diabolic Crush.”
