Shame it blows, though. 1/10.

Anyway, here's one that hopefully doesn't suck for my next one-

Big fan of Blink, I can't believe I have never heard this one. Pretty funny. I'll give it a solid 6/10.

I've been in a Green Day mood as of late, so I'll throw out a song by them that kinda reflects me and my thoughts from time to time.

Love me some Green Day. 8.5/10.

22 (23 if you count the Niedermeyer's Mind EP) years they've been going, and I only just got into KoRn a few months ago. Not sure why, but they kick ass. Proof:

Not wrong there, Kody. I'll definitely have to listen to more of Korn actually, that was pretty damn good. 8.5/10 from me.

Anyway, here's one that's arguably a bit of an oldie, but still a goodie.

Can never go wrong with some good classic rock. Solid 8/10.

I'm gonna go back to digging deep into my Four Tops archives.

It sucks going 0-5. You lose all 4 of your bot fights for the week and you also lose at life.

Doesn't really sound like the Four Tops that I remember, but it's alright. 5/10

Like you've never heard this song before&#33;

That man's voice can bring any song he sings up to at least an 8. For whatever reason I'm not fully enjoying this (might just straight up not be in the mood for it. IDK), but it's done fantastically enough to deserve a 9/10 regardless.

Well, this wasn't the song I was looking for, but I guess it works... a friend of mine got me into this local band: Spoonshine, The Robin

Not bad at all, but nothing that really floated my boat. I'll give it a 5/10

One of this year's nominees.

that sounds like a song that my dad would complain about every time it came on the radio because it's country-ish, but never actually change because he doesn't quite dislike it enough.

there's nothing I particularly like or dislike about it, that said... 5/10

I really liked the intro, but as soon as the vocals started, I was disappointed. And it maintained the sour pace from there. 4/10

From the Doctor Strange soundtrack:

I do like that song, though it lacks any real pizzaz. it's just decent funky jazz. 7/10

Speaking of jazz without pizazz... basic template Dixieland jazz. Doesn't really go anywhere though. 4/10

You'll need to turn up the speakers as the equalization's a little low, but you should still be able to hear this one:

I'm not much of a guy for sentimental feel good stuff, but this is a quality example of that sorta stuff... 6/10

discovered Benjamin Clementine today. he's... interesting, but has a great voice if nothing else https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ugGN_Z1jPoM

He does have a great voice, among other things, but it's not really my genre. I respect it though 6/10.


I've been updating my classic rock collection and I found a few gems. This album by Neil Young for instance:

Fantastic. Solid 8/10

So, surprise....still in a Green Day mood. With everything going down nowadays, protesting, and this newfound resistance movement starting to bubble up, I figured this was pretty appropriate. Frankly, I think the lyrics resonate with me more now than it did back in the day.
