Make sure you are gonna be able to turn it up because I’ve compiled some of the hardest rocking, energy filled tunes ever to grace Musicgoat feed. Strap on your seat belt and prepared to be launched into another energy level.
I normally don’t review multiple bands from the same record label but when I stopped by the Small Stone Recordings website, I was side tracked for a few hours and ended up burning up about thirty bucks on downloads, so I figured why the hell not. Here’s a word or two about a label and a few of the bands that you should check out. Read the rest of this entry
I was flipping through eMusicthe other day when I noticed a new release by an old favorite of mine, Extreme. I was a little apprehensive at first but figured what the hell, I’ll download it. Boy am I glad I did. Here is a quick review.
The title of the release is “Saudades De Rock“. In the opening line on the track “Slide” Gary Cherone sings “Find a groove and then drop the hammer.” That pretty much sums up most of the tunes on the release.
One of the reason i was a fan of Extemes music was because I am a sucker for good guitar. I always loved Nuno’s guitar work and this release did not do anything to change that. He is one of a seemingly dieing breed of guitarists who can dance over the fretboard, navigating a path of tasty grooves throughout every song.
The whole CD is about what you would expect from Extreme if you were a fan of some of the their popular stuff like “Pornograffitti” and/or “Three Sides to Every Story” but they do venture into new territory and pull it off well.
Bottom line, if you love active guitar, meaty grooves and solid songwriting, this is a no-brainer.

I just wanted to share a few quick thoughts with you concerning the Airbourne and EndeverafteR show I attended the other night at The Rock Night Club in Maplewood, MN.
The guys from EndeverafteR were polished and extremely entertaining. Throughout the show all I was thinking was “these guys get it.” Speaking as a child of the 80’s hard rock/metal scene, these guys could hang with the best of them. Read the rest of this entry

Off night… Note to Fu Manchu; I screwed up when I announced your song. I should have said “Hung Out to Dry” but I said “Means to an End.” I owe you one. Also, note to Adreneline Factor; I screwed up when I didn’t mention your name or the song (At least its in the show notes right?) I owe you one too.
It’s time once again to grace the internet airwaves with some music; Musicgoat style. This show was one that I recorded out of the blue last Friday when getting ready to go out for a few beers with my buddies.
I feature two songs each by two very solid hard rock bands; Atomic Brother and Violent Divine. The songs in this show really get the blood pumping. If you need a pick me up at anytime, this is the show.
Just when you thought nobody could truly rock anymore.
Here are songs and the bands you heard on this podcast. Check them out or die. Violent Divine – “Rush You” & “Let Go” Atomic Brother – “See Me Comin” & “Everything and Less”
If you are a Van Halen fan you will appreciate the video below. I stumbled across this on YouTube. This is what it is all about. Eddie REALLY lays it down. Enjoy.
