Advantages: Emotion runs through this album in veins Disadvantages: Confusing to a first timer
Post Rock has somewhat been thrust into the limelight recently with bands such as sigur ros being used as music on TV almost constantly these days. If you havent heard of Sigur Ros I can almost assure you you've heard their music if you watch TV.
Where as Sigur Ros have vocals, if in Icelandic, Explosionsin the Sky don't. If you don't know this to start with you might end up waiting an age for vocals to start and be sorely dissapointed when they do not.
How Strange Is Innocence chalks in at 48:43 and its pure emotion all the way through. Each song builds upon itself like a beautifully crafted sculpture, or an onion.....personally I think sculpture sounds better.

The problem with reviewing post rock is that the songs can often change so wildly within themselves. Explosions follow ...
Advantages: catchy songs, strong vocals Disadvantages: not enough great songs, quite a few average songs
Pink returns to the music scene with new album 'I'm NotDead', and i must say, it is pretty good!!!
The opening track is the first single, 'Stupid Girls'. It has an infectious guitar riff running through it, some great lyrics and equally good vocals. Also, if you have not seen the video for 'Stupid Girls', make sure you do because it is hilarious. A cracking song - 9.5/10
Track 2 is called 'Who Knew', and carries on the high quality offering that 'Stupid Girls' presents. Definitely not as good as track 1, but still a pretty decent song. Good, up-tempo track with catchy chorus. I give it 7/10
'Long Way To Happy' opens with moody piano staccato and synths, before Pink kicks in with the edgy vocal. This is a very good song, and yet again, is a track with a fantastic chorus. 7/10
Track 4 takes the tempo and mood down. The track ...
Advantages: Great gameplay and variety of games to play Disadvantages: The graphics at times and the sound is terrible
This review is for the 101 In 1 Explosive Megamix game for the Nintendo Ds console.
How the game works
The game is full of action games, sports and even logic. You basically begin by choosing the country you are from as this plays part of the language.
You then are given a screen and you click on new game. Once you have clicked this part you are given 3 games to play. You have to play them and try and hit the target they set you to get a tick on the game. Whatever score you get from playing a game this adds to your total.
For example if you get 2500 points for a game and you play again and get the same score it will add 5000 points to the score. Each time you get a score you need to keep track of the prices of other games. You need to use these points to purchase other games throughout. They begin being low in prices ...

Album Notes
Explosions in the Sky is set to make a noticeable mark on the indie rock scene. It combines epic guitar architecture a la Sonic Youth, the spatial manipulation of slowcore bands like Low, and the instrumental rock ambition of upstarts like Mogwai. While the band's 2001 debut trafficked in whiplash stylistic change-ups and hard rock dynamics, THE EARTH IS NOT A COLD DEAD PLACE is strikingly uniform in tone and sensibility. Here the group's straightforward instrumentation of guitars, bass, and percussion coalesces into a shifting landscape of lovely and irresistible dreaminess.
