In 2010 Mylène Farmer, the most popular French artist in the world, surprised fans when she released her first album without longtime collaborator Laurent Boutonnat, Bleu Noir. Her formula with Boutonnat was simple: Laurent wrote the music and she wrote the lyrics. At least that’s how the credits read. I should think there were times…

PROCEED WITH CAUTION… This review is biased, as it was written by a major Kylie fan. So, if that’s going to bother you, don’t read on. Otherwise, please do! Kylie Minogue’s long-awaited Christmas album, Kylie Christmas, has arrived! As a longtime fan, I find it hard to believe. I’m listening to it as I write…

If you’re getting bored with EDM, well, I really couldn’t blame you. In fact, I am, too. But today we have a two song EP from Ckrono & Slesh, a duo hailing from Florence, Italy, and it’s a stimulating blend of kudoro (something I’d never heard of before), Afro-house, funk, dub and even a bit…

From 2009 to 2013 Dalea was the lead singer/founder of Quimera Music, a symphonic rock band. Now solo, she has changed gears and shifted into the realm of pop.

It’s 2015 and Stryper’s yellow and black attack continues. And I dare say it’s stronger than ever. Just listen to “Yahweh,” the blistering opening track of their new album, Fallen. When I heard Michael Sweet was writing a song with Clint Lowery of Sevendust I thought we were in for a disaster, just based on…

review by Michael McCarthy photos by Joshua Bernard Last night Bostonians were given the opportunity to rock their asses off and rock they did, thanks to one of the best, Brit Award-winning, rock ‘n’ roll bands to ever come out of England, The Darkness. Just before the band hurried out on stage, a huge black…

The beats are catchy as they are snappy and Ross does some of his best rapping to date. The hook is great, too. And kudos to him for doing this on his own without any guest stars.

Well, I don’t care how good the album Grimes scrapped was — it was well worth it, since it lead to this sheer pop brilliance.

The Dead Weather don’t like to call themselves a supergroup, but they undoubtedly are. Jack White (drums, vocals, guitars) has become an acclaimed solo artist during recent years and was already famous for The White Stripes. Alison Mosshart (lead vocals, rhythm guitar, keyboards) is one half of the rough and tumble pop duo The Kills.…
