Breaking up is hard to do, but sometimes it’s even harder to listen to someone who’s breaking up complain about his ex. This bitter little ditty is a perfect example.

Hook-laden accessibility is one thing; hook-laden predictability is another. Finger Eleven’s “Drag You Down” is that “another.”

Just when you thought modern rock couldn't get any more derivative, it does.

Bust out those platforms, beeyatch! "Cash Car Star" is a piece of punk-inspired glam as shiny as Billy Corgan's bald head!

Blues Explosion Attack |

Alternative |
The "fawnky" drum track kicks this one into high gear from the get-go but Jon and his boys seem to run out of ideas about a minute in. Sounds like rehersal session drum check more than anything.

A head-banging dissertation on adolescent angst and emotional turmoil, this standard-fare aggro-stomper pounds you into sonic submission with its dramatic dynamics and tortured energy.

10 years later, Julianna Hatfield and crew come back with a new little ditty. They sound the same. Can you wait a little longer next time please?

Floridian punk newcomers NFG wear the "emo" tag with less-than-convincing results. It’s standard pop-punk fare you’ll forget in the Blink of an eye.

Alternative |
Shoegazing rock from the perpetually hyped Northwest favorites attempts to sound smart and inventive, but comes off as unstructured meandering better left as a studio outtake. Do yourself a favor and buy an At The Drive In record instead.

America's favorite balladeers croon another heartful on this somber, soulful paen. Sensitivity, thy name is Staind.
