“Rock in general is a bandwagon thing that 
makes me want to puke. It attracts knuckleheads 
and shithandlers, so I hope it’s dead.” 
-- Curt Kirkwood, Meat Puppets 

Fresh off the World Wide Web -- The FREE downloads you can't live without!
Monica
What's missing from Miss Thang’s latest, "What My Heart Says"? The freshness that made you wanna be the boy in "The Boy Is Mine." Her ever-improving set of pipes (check the evidence) deserves better.
   
Smashing Pumpkins
Bust out those platforms, beeyatch! "Cash Car Star" is a piece of punk-inspired glam as shiny as Billy Corgan's bald head!
   

These FREE MP3 downloads can only be found on MUSICBLITZ!
DJ Abstract
DJ Abstract's "Last Stand" is a hell of a lot more successful than Custer's was! His MUSICBLITZ Exclusive, "Curt's Wild Last Stand," is a smokin' slice of drum n' bass with more fury than a rampaging war party!
   
Klank
On this MUSICBLITZ Exclusive, New York metal mavens Klank unleash an incendiary chunk of hook-laden, industrial rock bent on whipping you into a frenzy! Check 'em out and "See What You Get"!
   
The Meat Puppets -- Rebirth of the Meat!
He's been from the toppermost of the poppermost to the the lake of fire, but Meat Puppet's Curt Kirkwood remains as freaky as he wants to be! Get all the seamy details in this exclusive MUSICBLITZ interview!
   
Alternative
Everlast - "I Can't Move" - PlayJ - 4 Stars
Thought Everlast's last album was a fluke? This new folk-hop hybrid proves just how wrong you were.

Death Cab For Cutie - "Title Track (We Have The Facts And We're Voting Yes)" - MP3 - 4 Stars
Looking for a soundtrack to your self-pity? Settle in with these indie poppers and wallow away.

Electronic
Charles Feelgood - "Dial 611 - by DJ Feelgood" - MP3 - 2 Stars
This dull but danceable track is appropriately titled -- it's in serious need of repair service!

A Perfect Circle - "3 Libras (Massive Attack Remix)" - WinMedia - 1 Star
Got seven minutes to waste? This pointless Massive Attack remix will be more than happy to oblige!

Rap/Hip-Hop
Mos Def - "Oh No (feat. Pharoahe Monch & Nate Dogg)" - WinMedia - 5 Stars
Say "oh yeah" to "Oh No," and experience some of the most intelligent and exciting hip-hop being made today!

Gang Starr - "1/2 & 1/2 (feat. M.O.P.)" - WinMedia - 4 Stars
Forget the title: Guru, Premier and the Mash Out Posse deliver the whole package on this chilling, brilliant dispatch from a hip-hop war zone!

Metal
Anthrax - "Inside Out (Live)" - MP3 - 3 Stars
Bush takes it to the people -- that’s John, not George W. -- on an amped-up live recording of Anthrax circa 2000.

R&B
Mya - "Free" - MP3 - 3 Stars
The D.C. diva’s OK on this slammin’ dance track, but it’s the production of Jam & Lewis that’ll have you saying “My, my Mya!”

Reggae
Dawn Penn - "No No No (feat. Bounty Killer)" - WinMedia - 4 Stars
Is “No No No” one of the best -- and unlikeliest -- reggae crossover hits of the past decade? Yes Yes Yes!

Blues
Mississippi Fred McDowell - "Red Cross Store" - PlayJ - 5 Stars
A spellbinding blast of electric blues from the man who wrote "You Got To Move"!

Jazz
Ruben Gonzalez - "Chanchullo" - LiquidAudio - 4 Stars
A rollicking Afro-Cuban jam from the Buena Vista Social Club's esteemed pianist. ¡Sabroso!

Duke Ellington - "Satin Doll (Live)" - MP3 - 3 Stars
Lost for decades, this live-from-NYC track gives a rare glimpse of Duke and his orchestra when lots of folks weren’t listening -- but you should!

Pop
S Club 7 - "Natural (Full Crew Mix)" - mjuice - 3 Stars
Santana meets Destiny's Child. DISCUSS.

Punk
Swingin' Utters - "Angels Pissing On Your Head" - MP3 - 2 Stars
A run-of-the-mill South Bay punk anthem for sad sacks everywhere. Punk might not be dead, but mediocrities like this aren't exactly keeping it in rosy good health.

Alt-Country
George Jones - "The Race Is On" - LiquidAudio - 4 Stars
A slightly inferior re-take of one of Ol' Possum's biggest hits, "The Race Is On" still sounds better than anything that's come out of Nashville in the past decade. Raise your glasses and toast a true country legend!

Jambands
Schleigho - "D-Funk" - MP3 - 3 Stars
This one’s worth a listen solely for Jesse Gibson’s rip-it-up organ grooves. “D-Funk” is definitely an exploration worth exploring!
