Paramore: Paramore

4 stars

The latest album from Paramore frays away from a specific sound and pursues many different genres in what is an excellent album from the alternative rock band. On this album you can find throwbacks, pop songs, a country song and even a ukulele interlude in an album which switches up its’s sound often, all while highlighting the vocals of lead singer Hayley Williams.

My Top 5 TracksNow, Still Into You, Ain’t It Fun, Hate To See Your Heart Break, Grow Up

Fall Out Boy: Save Rock and Roll

4 stars

The fifth album from alternative rock band Fall Out Boy features guest appearances from The Foxes, Big Sean, Courtney Love and Elton John while coming in at 11 tracks and just over 41 minutes. The band is still happy to experiment, mix things up and try new sounds five albums in and have released an excellent ambitious album this time around.

New Kids On The Block: 10 Album Review

To purchase the latest album, 10 from R&B group, New Kids On The Block click on the image above.

10 is the sixth studio album from R&B group New Kids On The Block and was released on April 2nd. The album is the first from the band since 2008 and is the first album from the group to be released independently after departing from Interscope Records. This release is a good album from the group which will remind fans of older material from the hay-day of the group.

This album sees the boy band’s catchy pop meshed together to match modern tastes in music with catchy hooks, some house music production, sensitive lyrics, and the signature New Kids On The Block sound echoing through all these new, modern sounds from the group. The stand-out track from this album is The Whisper in which the group channels Enrique Iglesias on this upbeat catchy tune. The album has many different sounds, with another stand-out track from the album being the R&B ballad Back to Life. New Kids On The Block have released an album which has many different sounds, and although there are some misses, most of the album connects. The album could have been shortened by a track or two, but at the end of the day this album is a good release from the R&B group.

10 is a good album from R&B group, New Kids On The Block and shows off the vocals of the singers in the group. Although the album suffers from inconsistency at times, and could have had a few tracks left off, overall the album is still above average and receives a light three and a half stars.


My Top 5 Tracks: The Whisper, Now Or Never, Back To Life, Take My Breath Away, Crash

Listen to, read descriptions, and see ratings of all the tracks from 10 below and if you like the album, make sure to support New Kids On The Block by clicking here to download the album on iTunes. Let me know what you think of the album in the comments.

Most Anticipated Albums Of 2013

With 2013 all wrapped up here at GoodMusicRadar.com as we continue to catch up to current day music here are the most anticipated albums and releases which I am currently looking forward to most for this upcoming year. Check out the list of anticipated albums set for possible release in 2013 below.

A$AP Rocky: Long Live A$AP Long Live A$AP was the studio debut album from rapper A$AP Rocky and was released on January 15th. In May of 2011 Rocky and his crew quit selling drugs in favor of starting a music career and having already shown the ability to make a notable mixtape, now is Rocky’s first shot at creating a notable album. The album already has hit single Goldie and F*ckin Problems. This album could see A$AP clearly breakthrough into the public eye with the rapper already securing a Grammy performance with Rihanna as well as opening up for her tour.

Devlin: A Moving Picture Devlin is one of the top British grime rappers and released his sophomore album on February 4th. The album has features from Ed Sheeran and Wretch 32 with this album being his first release where he has a large following. This album will show whether Devlin can progress and show why he has referred to by many as one of the U.K.’s top rappers.

Joe Budden: No Love Lost The third album from Slaughterhouse rapper Joe Budden was released on February 5th. The album continues to show Budden’s continued growing maturity as well as growth as an artist with the rapper gaining more of a spotlight due to Slaughterhouse.

Justin Timberlake: The 20/20 Experience One of my most anticipated albums of the year is Justin Timberlake’s long awaited third studio album which was released on March 15th. The album features the hit single Suit & Tie which has an appearance from Jay-Z.  The album from Timberlake follows up his 2006 album and has a soul/R&B feel to it from the triple threat.
