Kerrang is LOUD!

Advantages: compilation already done! great variety
Disadvantages: a few pointless songs lol

...trademark slogan 'life is loud'. Kerrang 4 (the album) is in my opinion a brilliant collection of some modern rock songs. The tempo of the album is always up - beat and although there may be some slower songs (such as the callings 'wherever you will go', which by the way if you haven't heard it is an awesome song), the overall pass of the double disc set is quick energetic and 'loud'. Kerrang 4 is not loud in the sense that it hurts your ears and ...
...buy a bands whole album. Kerrang 4 (the album) also makes a great gift for any teenage boy, or anyone to that matter. I truly believe there is so much to this album on so many levels. Also as this album has been out for a while now (5 years), it is a bit cheaper, so buy it and I'm sure you will like at least 1 new band after listening to it! ...

What it says on the tin... Just Sublime

Advantages: Potentially timeless, vast musical spectrum
Disadvantages: Not many

This album is arguably the best offering from rap/reggae/punk fusion band , Sublime. The untimely demise of the lead singer in a very rock 'n' roll manner means that with no new releases, its a good job that this album is so good. Almost thirty tracks confirms its status as one of those value for money albums and there are so many stand out tracks on this record that it would futile to list them. The album has a very free-flowing feel to it, however, ...
...or consistency. I prefer to say that this is a reflection on its raw grit and energy. Most people would struggle to avoid finding a track they like on here and if any of the three above genres interest you then this will be right up your street. There is a cover of 'Rivers of Babylon' which is blissfully relaxing and will appeal to fans of the old-school reggae style. While the constant switching and changing of the musical stylings means that the ...

No Use For A Name

Advantages: Sublime at their best
Disadvantages: Not enough songs!

...get to the ulitmate classic Sublime song that everyone who's anyone knows - "Santeria". This song MADE Sublime what they are to a lot of people - it's like what "One" was to Metallica. Listen to this if nothing else. The last track on the album is "Doin' Time" - an excellent take on "Summertime". This is THE song for any summer - and even if it's winter, you'll definitely feel like it's summer after listening to this song. Overall, an amazing album ...
