I'm Hungry. I Could Go For Some "Korn".

          You know, I think that this 90's rock band is under-appreciated. Which, I find saddening. Granted, everyone is entitled to their opinion but I do not think that this band is as bad as many think. Granted, they've had a lot of flops, but they're not absolutely terrible.
          How I kind of found out about them was listening to "Wake Up Now" by the Notorious B.I.G. featuring Korn. That song puts a chill down my spine. Don't get me wrong, it's good, but it's ****in' creepy, man. If you should like to find it, you can purchase the album "Duets: The Final Chapter". It was only time until I started looking up Korn and seeing what else they got.
          Funny enough, my ex-girlfriend interested me to the amazing song "Alone I Break". I kind of resonate with that song. Especially the chorus. "All this **** I seem to take, all alone I seem to break. I have lived the best I can, does this make me not a man?" Sure, one might just say "Nah, don't listen to that crap. It's just stupid emo ****." Well, it makes sense.
          "Hating" from the album "Untouchables", is also a really good song. And their most recent album, "The Path of Totality", they did many songs with various dubstep groups including Skrillex and Kill the Noise. "Get Up!" featuring Skrillex is a really great song to get your pulse going. Now I will admit, THAT is an angry song, but it's so damn catchy.

Judas Priest: A New God Is In Town

            Let me just say that I ****in' love Judas Priest! They're a metal/hard rock band from the late 1970's, mid 80's. They are great music to bang your head to and just rock out. Go ****in' ballistic, man. "Here Come the Tears" is by far the BEST song by them. In my opinion, at least. (The right one.) If you are interested in that song, you can find it in the album "Sin After Sin". Another personal favorite is "Desert Plains" from a different album, "Point of Entry".
             You should really give them a listening to. One of their smash hits is "Judas Rising" which has some *****in' guitar solos in it. All over the ****in' place. Would I call this angry music? Nah. Would I call it great music to rock out to? Hell yeah.

Do You Wanna "Watch The Throne"?

               The collaborative Kanye West & Jay Z album, "Watch The Throne", which premiered August 12th, 2011, is a fantastic album. The main songs I'd give a listen to are "Ni**as In Paris", "Illest Motherf***** Alive" and "No Church In The Wild". Overall, it's a solid cd and I highly recommend you give it a listening to.
