Heart of Stone
: :He's the one-of-a-kind artist who's been consistently compared to Steve Earle, John Mellancamp, and Johnny Cash at their best. He's a songwriter's songwriter who's ferociously honest tracks have been turned into hits by Montgomery Gentry, Blake Shelton, and most recently Cross Canadian Ragweed. Now, ten years and five acclaimed albums into one of the most uncompromising careers in American music, he has delivered the album of his career.

The Bird And The Bee Sides
: :The Bird and the Bee Sides begins with a baker s dozen of original new tunes collected under the moniker of The Nashville Tennis EP. With all five members writing and taking turns on lead vocals, it's perhaps Relient K's most diverse effort to date, including Thiessen's alt-country At Least We Made It This Far, bassist John Warne s The Last, The Lost, The Least, which is explosive both sonically and in its social commentary, and new drummer ...

Graduation
:Album Description:Graduation is the 3rd installment in the Kanye West series of ground breaking albums, targeting every school kid, from those that have dropped out (Debut Album, College Dropout), to those late registrants (sophmore album Late Registration), to those that have gone on and completed school (current album Graduation).

Heavier Things
: :John Mayer's big-label debut was a multiplatinum breakthrough success whose sensual anthem 'Your Body Is a Wonderland' scored him an unlikely Grammy for Best Pop Vocal. That out-of-the-box succes--and more than a few critics grousing that Mayer's muse was cloned from Dave Matthews--primed him for the typical sophomore slump. Instead, Mayer delivers an album whose tone and title suggests a gentle, tongue-in-cheek rebuke to his naysayers. Propelled by the subtle ambitions of an expanded pop-jazz framework (largely courtesy of ...

The Best of Talking Heads
:Album Description:Formed in NYC in the mid-'70s by David Byrne, Chris Franz, Tina Weymouth, and ex-Modern Lover Jerry Harrison, the Talking Heads evolved out of their now-legendary humble beginnings at CBGB's to become one of the most adventurous and influential bands ever. Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2002, the Heads' visionary, polyrhythmic sound daringly combined funk and punk, African beats, avant-garde minimalism, and pure pop. From their 1977 debut through their Brian Eno-produced classics ...

Vault: Def Leppard Greatest Hits
: :\N :To have resisted Def Leppard's radio power in their heyday, you'd have to have been a critic--and even some of us could hardly argue with the likes of 'Photograph,' 'Animal,' and 'Bringin' on the Heartbreak.' Vault covers a decade and a half of hits by the one-time wonder boys of the new wave of British metal, but perhaps inevitably concentrates on singles from the multiplatinum Pyromania and Hysteria. It offers little meaning beyond fun fun fun, but ...

Be Here
: : Keith Urban Photos More from Keith Urban Golden Road In the Ranch Keith Urban Amazon.com:Australian-born Keith Urban, hot off the double-platinum success of his 2002 sophomore album, Golden Road, is kind of like contemporary country's Tom Cruise. The kid is just so unjustly talented, likeable, and good-looking that it's hard not to hate him. But such jealousy is apt to melt into begrudging admiration and affection after a quick listen to this third album. True, some ...

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill
: 's Best of 1998:The first solo album by the Fugees' most distinctive voice quickly wipes away the pretensions of so many current hip-hoppers' discs. It does so by both engaging their widescreen ethos--'To Zion,' with its martial drums and gospel choir, is as epic a production as has been heard in 1998's pop music--and speaking the plain truth. Miseducation focuses equally on Lauryn Hill's life (especially the birth of her child) and social concerns about the present and future. ...
