Weezer



Weezer's sixth album is out now! The album starts out strong with a catchy nerd rock song Troublemaker. This might be their best album since Pinkerton. It has the strong songs reminiscent of their blue album and the weirdness of Pinkerton. If you're a fan of Weezer's earlier work, but haven't been impressed in recent years, this album may bring you back.

Vice Review

Kansas City's own Architects just released Vice, their third album. If you're already a fan, then you're going to want to add this to your collection. Some of Vice's standout songs are Pills, Daddy Wore Black, and New Boots & Truncheons. You can actually check out all three of those new songs on their myspace page. This album didn't have the soul like Keys to the Building or the in-your-face attitude of Revenge. While a few of the songs from Vice will make your playlist, Vice is only a very average effort from the great Architects.

Halls of Lame


Madonna is on this years list of inductees into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
WTF? The Rock Hall includes inductees such as: Elvis (The King), The Beatles (the guys who defined rock and roll), and The Ramones (the saviors of rock and roll). and now Madonna? no discredit to what what she has accomplished in her career, but it is NOT rock and roll.



Preki, also known as God, gets snubbed this year by the National Soccer Hall of Fame.
Check out his wikipedia resume.
seriously? come on.

Also, check him out scoring against Brazil.
