It's been a while...

Sheena here. I know I haven't posted in... EONS, so here we go...

So my friend showed me this really, REALLY weird ska-type band, THE AQUABATS. They're basically a grown-up "They Might be Giants". My favorite songs would have to be...

1. Pool Party (Myths, Legends, and Other Amazing Adventures) - Well, this song is exactly what it sounds like, it's about a pool party. Very catchy.

2. Fashion Zombies! (Charge!!) - This song is about all the "emo" kids in the world and how they are slaves to black clothing. and make up. and hair dye.

3. Pizza Day (Myths, Legends, and Other Amazing Adventures) - Monday: Hot Dog, Tuesday: Taco, Wednesday: Hamburgers and chocolate milk, Thursday: sloppy Joe's and burritos in a bag, Friday was Pizza Day, the best day of the week....

4. Lovers Of Loving Love (The Aqubats vs. the Floating Eye of Death) - a sweet love song. It's cute.

Enjoy,
Sheena

DJ Earworm

I know I already posted today but I found something really cool.

There's this guy named DJ Earworm and he makes mash ups, and his mash ups are amazing.
For those of you who don't know what a mashup is, it's when you mix together parts of two or more songs to make one song. DJ Earworm does great mash ups, like for example every year he makes a mashup with the Top 25 Billboard songs of the year. And they're fantastic. He also makes other random mash ups, for example he made a mashup of a few songs by Maroon 5 and he made one for Sean Kingston. All the mash ups are really great and on his website you can download all of his mash ups, for free. Yes that's right, for free. So you should really check out his website if you like awesome mash ups and free music. :)

Mysterious Apple Pages and Stella's Song of the Moment

Astronauts - One EskimO
(The video's kinda bizarre but don't let it take away from the song.)

I got this song for free when a mysterious page from iTunes came up on my computer. I'm still not sure how this page came up... and I've been trying to find it again with no luck. The page just kinda popped up, it had lots of news from iTunes and free stuff on it (Songs and Videos), but it wasn't the stuff from Free on iTunes it was other free stuff and it looked kind of like a news page. If anybody knows how to get to it, please tell me, I'd like to know.

Anyways, about the song. I'd never heard of One EskimO until this song. They remind me immensely of Coldplay. The song is absolutely beautiful and it has a tragic air to it, but I love it. I listen to it before I go to sleep, it calms me down. I hope you love it.

Love Always,
Stella <3

SHEENA'S ALBUM REVIEW...

And now, for my favorite album of all time....

AMERICAN IDIOT - GREEN DAY

Green Day's 8th album, and in my opinion, their best. Even though some songs like "American Idiot" and "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" and I could go on for eons listing the rest of them, are very overplayed, you really, REALLY, shouldn't judge the rest of the album by them.

TRACK LIST/REVIEWS:

1. American Idiot - Ehh..... Whatever...

2. Jesus Of Suburbia - This song is great, not my favorite, but still great. This track was the first written for this album.

3. Holiday - alright.

4. Boulevard of Broken Dreams - exactly how many awards did this win at the 2004 VMAs?

5. Are We The Waiting -Transitional, into St. Jimmy. Beautiful. Better live.

6. St. Jimmy - I love this song so much that i even made a comic about it. it was pretty odd. Still ties for my favorite Green Day song.

7. Give Me Novacaine - I think this is transitional with She's A Rebel. Very metaphorical. One of the best.

8. She's A Rebel - Where the [BRILLIANT] ablum artwork is inspired. great song.

9. Extrodinary Girl - OMG, I have this issue of Rolling Stone where they say, AND I QUOTE, "From the nine-minute epic, 'Jesus Of Suburbia' to punk nugget 'Extroadinary Girl/Letterbomb'..." I was DYING...

10. Letterbomb - The other half of the punk nugget. i like the first line.

11. Wake ME Up When September Ends - two things to say:
1) Billie Joe actually started CRYING while singing this durin gbuet in a bible. heratbreaking
2) this song is about the death of his father.

12. Homecoming - ABSOLUTLEY EPIC. But I must say, 'Rock and Roll Girlfriend,' sang by Tre Cool, is my favorite.

13. Whatshername - OHEMJEEZY The other half of my favorite song tie. this song is pretty epic too. I think I shit myself the first time i herad it. something about it is just so... eerie.

**NOTE: For once, I DO NOT recommend the bonus track version. Only because whatshernae is how an abum SHOULD end.

Stella's Review!

Hey

So I know we haven't done a review in a little while so i'm doing one right now.

My review is on the album:

Nothing Personal by All Time Low

I am a HUGE All Time Low fan and I was kinda nervous that this album might not be as good as the last one they released (So Wrong, It's Right) but it didn't fail to impress me! This album is in my opinion the best album they've released so far. All the songs are uber catchy and even though there's not a lot of range of music the album still is very good. Most of the music is kinda of a Rock/Alternative mix but songs like "Weightless" and "Too Much" are kinda pop oriented but they don't stray away from the rest of the album.

Some of my favorites off the album are:

• Damned If I Do Ya (Damned If I Don't) - This song is probably one of the catchiest songs ever. This is stuck in my head 24/7. It has a very "Feel Good" vibe to it even if the lyrics aren't that happy. "I've fought it for a long time now. While drowning a river of denial. I washed up, picked up, fixed up all my broken things." That doesn't really make you feel all fuzzy inside now does it? But the song really is quite catchy.
• Stella - This is the song that I picked for my code name for this blog! I LOVE THIS SONG. This is another catchy song that I'm always singing. I'm almost positive that this song is about how he would get drunk and he would beg his girlfriend (Stella) to take him home. It's kinda hard to tell with this band sometimes. Read the lyrics and let me know in the comments if you agree with me or if I'm completely wrong :)
• Hello, Brooklyn - This is one of those songs that when it plays you just kinda want to dance. and if you're not much of a dancer I guarentee you'll be either a. Nodding your head or b. Tapping your foot. "Everybody knows there's a party at the end of the world." What a great line.
• Too Much - This is one of the few kind of slow, popish songs on this album, and I adore it. I think the message is great. "And too much of love can be too much." So true.

Track Listing:

1. Weightless
2. Break Your Little Heart
3. Damned If I Do Ya (Damned If I Don't)
4. Lost In Stereo
5. Stella
6. Sick Little Games
7. Hello, Brooklyn
8. Walls
9. Too Much
10. Keep The Change, You Filthy Animal
11. A Party Song (The Walk Of Shame)
12. Therapy

Please check out this album. It really is fantastic. Please tell your friends about our blog! We'd really love to get some readers... It would mean so much to us. :)

Love Always,

Stella.

Stella's Song of the Moment!

Stella's song of the moment is:

Speechless by Lady Gaga

Honestly, I love Lady Gaga. She reminds me very much of Madonna in her early days.

This is one of her few slow songs. I think it's quite beautiful and it shows off her amazing voice. Please check it out, even if you aren't a Lady Gaga fan, I think that you might like it. (Sheena, who HATES Lady Gaga said she "doesn't totally hate it.")

Love Always,
Stella. <3

Dusk And Summer - Dashboard Confessional

Dashboard Confessional's 4th album, DUSK AND SUMMER, is my favorite album by dashboard because of it's if not variety, but versatiliy. You see so many sides of a (so-called) emo band, it's unbeliveable it's the same album... Most on this album are love songs, the most popular being "Stolen," which, even if you don't know by name, you'd probably know by ear, but not my favorite. My favorite track on this album would have to be either..

- 'So Long, So Long,' My god, that song is so eerie in the begining, the first time I listen to the album throught, I had to change the song

- 'Reason to Believe,' There is one point in the chorus where he says "..my capilaries scream," putting so much emphacsis on the word 'sceam,' it rattles my bones. Litteraly. Plus, there's this one riff they use repeatedly, just woah.
or...

- 'Slow Decay,' The extensive bass in the first five seconds, is truly face melting. Also , there are some points in this song where the instruents clash a little, in the most beautiful way possible...

Track List:

-Don't Wait
-Reason To Believe*
-Vindicated*
-Stolen*
-Rooftops and Invitations
-So Long, So Long*
-Currents
-Slow Decay*
-Dusk And Summer
-Heaven Here

*the best

P.S. I STRONGLY recomend the deluxe version...

Sheena's Song For The Moment

Imogen Heap - Hide And Seek

You know that song.. "Whatcha Say," by Jason Delrulo(sp?)? Well this is the orginal... 4587952764983765 x better, in my opinion.

Stella's Review!

Heyloo.

Stella here with my first album review. I'm reviewing the album:

Songs In the Key of E-mail from the band ALL CAPS.

All Caps is made up of Kristina Horner (also part of The Parselmouths) and Luke Conard (also part of Ministry of Magic). Both are very talented singers and musicians. The songs on this album range from Bouncy Techno to Sweet Ballad. One of the reasons I love this band and this album is because they sing songs about things bands wouldn't usually sing about. For example, the song "I Love Brains" is about the tough life of a zombie, "I Love You" is about being attacked by zombies while on a date and "Saved" has different verses about things like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Video Games and the show Heroes! But other songs like Me and Milee (pronounced like Emily) is a song about love. A song I think is really sweet is "Do You Like Me". It's a song about the awkwardness of liking someone in elementary school. This album is truly fantastic! Please check it out!

Track Listing

• Do You Like Me
• I Love Brains
• I Love You
• Me and Milee
• More Than Alive
• Mrs. Nerimon
• Not Alone
• Our Story Unfolds
• Saved
• Snow Day
• Voldemort Fangirl
• You're My Ipod

Love Always.

Right So...

Last Monday, a tradgic tradgedy occured. An extremly talented drummer died. This is in honor of him:

as you read above, Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan passed away on Decamber the 28th. His band, Avenged Sevenfold, (a metal band from southern california) released their fourth album in 2007, and it was EASILY their best work yet.

best track:
Lost. ohemjeezy, that intro burns my soul to bits. this was an experimental album, so this song has kind of a pop vibe, and trust me, I'm not a pop kind of girl, but this is fricking fantasc.
