Knot Feeder - Light Flares: Mostly instrumental music that wasn't entirely boring.

The Knack - Get The Knack: Much more, and better than, My Sharona. Get into it.

Killswitch Engage - Killswitch Engage: Much, much better than I remember their last album being.

Kansanturvamuslikkikomissio - 666: What an odd, odd album.

Johnson&Jonson - Johnson&Jonson: Hip hop with moments of greatness delivered inconsistently.

Jimmy Eat World - Clarity: So much more than the cheesy pop band I asumed they were.

Japandroids - Post-Nothing: Solid foundation of Sonic Youth-inspired rock. Look forward to more, less repetitive, in the future.

Michael Jackson - Thriller: I still don't get it.

Dashboard Confessional - Alter The Ending: Another merely adequate post-MTV album.

Into It. Over It. - 52 Weeks: Love he commitment, if not all the songs, though enough of them. Dig the early Piebald influence.

Lead singer from Mansions needs more stage presence, less alcohol.

Hope Conspiracy - True Nihilist: Not as brutal as previous releases, but enjoyable nonetheless.

Hollywood - Discography: It's a shame they never found their footing, because the potential was there.

Buddy Holly - Complete Collection: 10 discs of anyone borders on too much. With someone as limited as Holly it's especially true.

Bill Hicks - Dark Poet: If you're a fan this is a must listen. Not because it's funny but because it's not. And epically awkward.

Here We Go Magic - S/T: It put me to sleep. Not sure the music was at fault or if I was just that tired.

Jimi Hendrix - Are You Experienced: It fails to capture the immediacy and epicness of what he could do on stage.

Levon Helm - Electric Dirt: If I didn't know any better, I'd be very quick to make comaprisons to The Band.

Earth Crisis - To The Death: It's Earth Crisis - loud, noisy, a bit cheesy.

Earth Crisis - To The Death: It's Earth Crisis - loud, noisy, a bit cheesy.
