Editorial Product Review: :On the heels of their hugely successful 2007 ampitheater tour, Rush is now giving all their fans the chance to aurally experience the concert for themselves with the double album, Snakes & Arrows Live. The live set features perennial favorites like 'Tom Sawyer,' 'The Spirit of Radio,' and 'YYZ' as well as new fare 'Far Cry,' 'Spindrift,' and 'The Larger Bowl.' Also included is the live rendition of the 2008 Grammy-nominated 'Malignant Narcissism' followed by a Rush live staple, a Neil Peart drum solo. Snakes ...
Editorial Product Review:Album Details:The CD Slide Pack is a New Form of No-frills CD Packaging featuring an Outer Slipcase with the Original Cover Artwork, and an Inner 'slider' Including a CD. Note: There is No CD Booklet in this Package. :This best-of is loaded with the usual smash suspects plus three new cuts--the sub-Mellancamp 'Someday I'll Be Saturday Night,' the Bed of Roses-style ballad single 'Always,' and a low-key remake of 'Living On A Prayer' titled 'Prayer '94.' Love 'em or not, there's no denying the loyalty ...
Editorial Product Review: :As the vitriol spewed from Evil Empire, Rage Against the Machine's long-awaited follow up to their 1993 debut owes much to Chuck D.'s polemic fury and rapid-fire urgency--though as always the band rages without hip-hop machinery in favor of the heavy-duty power tools of rock. But no matter if Rage against the Machine amounts to revolutionary rap, protest metal, or a combination of the two, the band's command of sonic rage makes Evil Empire a powerful assault in any musical language. But wait, there's more ...

Editorial Product Review: :From the White Album to the end, the last days of the Beatles weren't smooth, which made the fact that they still produced some astonishing music all the more remarkable. In abbreviated form, 'What's the New Mary Jane' is finally issued here, and proves underwhelming. For the rest of the set, it's largely down to outtakes and demos, but this time there isn't the same insight of the previous two volumes. Anthology 3 comes dangerously close to the sound of barrels being scraped. That said, ...
Editorial Product Review:Album Description:Two CD set. All songs digitally remastered, extensive liner notes and special photos. Tesla were classic rock at its purest and its most honest, twin guitars raging, bass and drums pounding, the whole team marching to the same compulsive beat and they have remained true to those qualities ever since. This is the first double disc collection of the best tracks from these platinum - selling rockers! This comprehensive collection, ranging from 1986 through 2007, presents 32 classic tracks and collectibles, including their chart ...
Editorial Product Review: :Following Staind's footsteps, Nickelback make the personal public and vent a history of frustration and resentment to melodic hard rock. The band's second album, Silver Side Up, starts with 'Never Again,' an angry tirade against domestic violence that sheds light on the issue without too much sap or sentiment. The album's catchy radio hit 'How You Remind Me' and the song 'Woke Up This Morning' tell of rotting relationships, while other tracks touch on damaged hope and lost dreams. The post-grunge, alt-metal combo backing these ...
Editorial Product Review:Album Description:2008 reissue of Van Halen's self-titled debut album released in 1978. It is considered to be one of the most famous debut albums. The album has sold over ten million copies in the United States alone and it is considered to be one of the most successful debuts by a hard rock band. Along with 1984, it gives Van Halen two original (not a greatest hits) albums with Diamond status in sales -- a feat achieved by only four other rock bands: The Beatles, ...
Editorial Product Review:Album Description:Neatly fitting in between 1993's GREATEST HITS and the 5-CD PLAYBACK box set that came out two years later, this 34-track collection is a chronological tour of Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers' MCA Records material. The consistent quality found throughout this two-CD set that's bookended by the sinister-sounding 'Breakdown' and chiming 'Surrender'(a song Petty wrote in the '70s but didn't get around to recording until August 2000) boggles the mind. Tight playing and a palpable sense of passion from the four-piece Heartbreakers transform songs ...
Editorial Product Review:Album Description:International pressing of the hit 2007 album featuring two bonus tracks: 'Them Vs. You Vs. Me' and 'Sacrifice'. The members of Finger Eleven collectively wrote / recorded over one hundred songs during the process of creating Them vs. You vs. Me.. The influences are of varying styles from rock to country to dance to funk to old 60's songs. Many of them were written by exchanging files over the Internet wherein one person would track a home recording, send it off, and then some ...
Usually we're fans of Logitech's gaming mice, but its highest-end G9 Laser Mouse is expensive, overly complex, and lacks the ergonomic thought we've come to expect. If you like to brag about dot-per-inch limits, perhaps the G9's 3,200dpi laser will be enough to sell you, but for the price, we expect the design to match.
Small and light enough for a shirt pocket, Samsung's Helix YX-M1 is a one-stop audio entertainment center with an XM radio, a digital music player, and room for 50 hours of tunes, but it comes up short on battery life.
