    Metacritic compiles critical reviews for music, films, books, TV, and games in order to give new releases overall scores. Pretty cool site.
    It makes much more sense to live in the present tense.

    TOOL.
    this is all i'm asking.

    i'd be happy with new audioslave too if it could be guaranteed not to disappoint me like the last two.
    hear my name
    take a good look
    this could be the day
    hold my hand
    lie beside me
    i just need to say

    Audioslave will always be a disappointment because the final album does not equal the sum of its parts. Boring, derivative wang.
    Too many cowboys, not enough indians, so just go ape shit!

    I may be boring but at least I'm not Jack fucking Johnson.

    TV is such shit; let's go outside and ride bicycles, right now!

  • Pearl Jam
    Tool
    Gin Blossoms (I don't think anyone's mentioned that one yet)

  • I hope all these TMV rumors are true. And thanks for the metacritic site link.

    I forgot about the Gin Blossoms record. I love their other records, so this should be pretty cool. I heard one of the new songs awhile back at one of their shows, it was quite good.

    I heard on the radio a couple weeks back that the remaining members from Alice in Chains are going to record something new with a new singer. If this is true and they can get it out this year, that would definitely be something to look forward to.
    Cannot stop the thought, running in the dark, coming up a which way sign, all good truants must decide.

    where did you hear about those

    been all over the net the past few months dude. Jonesy has been workin on new stuff for the past year now, and Jimmy Page is working on 3 "Projects", one of which is meant to be a new solo album. He also said in the recent Guitar World interview with Jack White that he's been writing alot lately. Cant wait to hear some new material from Jimmy! I reckon he's the greatest ever!
