Increase Your Musical Knowledge With The b5 Media Music Channel’s Bloggers

Yesterday, I wrote a post to promote two videos which I thought should get greater attention. Hopefully this meant you watched the offerings from The Bees and The Mooney Suzuki, and increased your musical knowledge a little bit.
This post was part of an endeavour by the whole of the b5 Music Channel to suggest some […]

Pendulum - ‘Propane Nightmares’ Music Video Review | Combining Rock & Electronica

Pendulum are a new Australian band who have relocated to the UK as they know it is the Mecca of decent music. Just ask Dave over at Brit Music Scene, oh hang on that’s me! However, don’t tell Lauren at Oz Music Scene, or she’ll kill me.
After starting as producers and remixers, they are now […]

Evanescence - ‘Bring Me To Life’ Music Video Review | Operatic Rock At Its Finest

It’s the end of April, yes, another month has gone by. So I thought I’d take us back in time a little while for today’s review, with Bring Me To Life by Evanescence.
This is like a genre all to itself, with a strong operatic voice singing over the top of some classic rock guitars. Call […]

Buckcherry - ‘Sorry’ Music Video Review | I Thought It Was The Hardest Word?

Buckcherry are a new band on me, I’ve never heard of them! It seems like they’re one of those weird groups who seem destined to just stay in the States.
I only know about this song, Sorry, (no, I’m not apologising, that’s the title) because of I regularly check Billboard to review videos that my American […]

The Strokes - ‘12:51′ Music Video Review | I Demand More Tron Style Videos!

Woah, this is going way back, but I couldn’t resist as it is my favourite Strokes video, and one of my favourite songs of theirs.
Watching this just makes me wonder why there aren’t more music videos inspired by Tron, it practically begs to be stylistically copied after all.
The thing is, this could have actually […]

Green Day - ‘Basket Case’ Video Review | Is This What Happens In All Hospitals?

I’ve loved Green Day ever since they burst on to the scene with this video. I know they’ve changed a bit since then, but this song, and video still stand up to scrutiny 13 years after it was first released.
I remember the debate about what kind of music this was when it first came out: […]

Nickelback - ‘Rockstar’ Music Video Review | It Works Despite Chad Kroeger’s Voice

Nickelback… even the mere mention of the name of this band inspires boredom, irritation and annoyance in my head. This is of course due to that You Remind Me song, which is still played on radio stations far too much.
The song was bad enough, but then when I saw the video for the first time, […]

Sum 41 - ‘Fat Lip’ Music Video Review

It’s time for a classic, at least a modern one, in the shape of Sum 41’s brilliant Fat Lip. This song, and the band themselves seemingly came out of nowhere, or Canada as it’s more commonly known… I keed, I keed!
I loved this video as soon as I saw it, which must have been about […]

Roni Size & Reprazent - ‘Brown Paper Bag’ Video Review | Best Drum’n'Bass Video Ever

Watching this video takes me back to the old skool, when I was more in to dance music and Drum’n’Bass than the Indie and Rock that I’m in to now.
I would assume a lot of people won’t have ever seen this video, heard the song, or even know of Roni Size, but after seeing this, […]

The Fray - ‘How To Save A Life’ Video Review | A Hospital Would Be Better Than A Song

This song is The Fray with How To Save A Life. Some of you will be wondering what this video is, because as soon as the record got some airplay, everyone wanted a piece, and so there are multiple versions around.
Forget the Scrubs one, forget the Greys Anatomy one, this is the original and the […]
