Also, take a listen at the song "Matter of Time". Another STRONG SONG from that album!! <p>  <div class='addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style' expr:addthis:title='alternative hip-rock' expr:addthis:url='http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com'> <a href='http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&username=rythaman' class='addthis_button_compact'>Share</a><span class='addthis_separator'>|</span><a class='addthis_button_facebook'></a> <a class='addthis_button_myspace'></a><a class='addthis_button_google'></a> <a class='addthis_button_twitter'></a></div> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js#username=rythaman"></script> http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com/2014/01/mama-said-knock-you-out.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (DJrythaman)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730414591105361077.post-5935725918573427125Wed, 20 Jun 2012 10:05:00 +00002012-06-20T15:33:36.050-04:005FDPAmerican CapitalistFive Finger Death PunchFiveFingerDeathPunchIvan MoodyFive Finger Death PunchOkay. It took me a while to get back to blogging about music. I know, I know. Thankfully, I have been falling in love with a ton more bands lately. So many different bands I can't even begin to start writing them all down. I will start blogging about each one though -- slowly. <grins>.<br><br> Five Finger Death Punch (also initialized as 5FDP) is an American heavy metal band from LA. I lived out there for about 3 years and still want to move back eventually. They formed in 2005, the group's name is derived from classic oriental martial arts cinema. The band originally consisted of vocalist Ivan Moody, guitarist Zoltan Bathory, guitarist Caleb Bingham, bassist Matt Snell and drummer Jeremy Spencer. Bingham was replaced by guitarist Darrell Roberts in 2006, who was then replaced by Jason Hook in 2009. Bassist Matt Snell departed from the band in 2010 and was replaced by Chris Kael in 2011. Their debut album The Way of the Fist was released in 2007. <br><br> Following its release the band began achieving success rapidly. The 2009 follow-up album "War Is the Answer" further increased their popularity. This album blows my mind. Ivan Moody's voice is one of the best rock voices I've heard in a very long time. This song off their newest album, "American Capitalist" has got to be my favorite song from the band. Even though I love every one of their songs produced. I do have some favorites and here is one of them. This is the official video! Peace.<br><br> <iframe width="450" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/ptzzU7jFQwo" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>  <div class='addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style' expr:addthis:title='alternative hip-rock' expr:addthis:url='http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com'> <a href='http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&username=rythaman' class='addthis_button_compact'>Share</a><span class='addthis_separator'>|</span><a class='addthis_button_facebook'></a> <a class='addthis_button_myspace'></a><a class='addthis_button_google'></a> <a class='addthis_button_twitter'></a></div> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js#username=rythaman"></script> http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com/2012/05/five-finger-death-punch.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (DJrythaman)2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730414591105361077.post-7213137133518710396Sun, 23 Oct 2011 23:40:00 +00002012-06-20T14:47:06.369-04:00alternative hip rockalternative rockmashupWick-it The Instigator Nineties FTW<div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style" expr:addthis:title="alternative hip-rock" expr:addthis:url="http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com"> <br /> Wick-it The Instigator Nineties FTW (mashup) Must Listen! <p> <iframe frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/xo6bXM5IJSs" width="450"></iframe> <br /> <a class="addthis_button_compact" href="http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&username=rythaman">Share</a><span class="addthis_separator">|</span><a class="addthis_button_facebook" href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=6730414591105361077"></a> <a class="addthis_button_myspace" href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=6730414591105361077"></a><a class="addthis_button_google" href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=6730414591105361077"></a> <a class="addthis_button_twitter" href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=6730414591105361077"></a></div> <script src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js#username=rythaman" type="text/javascript"> </script>http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com/2011/10/wick-it-instigator-nineties-ftw.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (DJrythaman)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730414591105361077.post-8715980473109971625Sat, 01 Oct 2011 10:45:00 +00002012-06-20T14:47:56.471-04:00alternative hip hopalternative hip rockalternative rockfred dursthard rocklimp bizkitmusic videorap rockrockEverybody jumps from the sound of the shotgun<div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style" expr:addthis:title="alternative hip-rock" expr:addthis:url="http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; line-height: 19px;">In April 2011, Fred Durst (on twitter) informed fans that a meeting between the band and their record label (Interscope) had taken place.

Draiman also stated that the album is still identifiably Disturbed, but showing more maturation. Judging by Draiman's feelings on the last few years of his life, that Disturbed's new album will be aggressive, angry, and "hard-hitting", but will be similar to their album Believe.<br /> <br /> In March of 2010, the band released a reissue of their debut album, The Sickness, with the B-side tracks "God of the Mind" and "A Welcome Burden", updated artwork, as well as remastering and remixing the track list. It was also available for the first time in vinyl format. One month earlier, Harmonix announced a second Disturbed pack for download on the Rock Band music store, containing the remastered versions of "Voices", "The Game", and "Meaning of Life".<br /> <br /> Here is Voices:<br /> <br />   <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="345" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/r0DwpEdoB1Q" width="450"></iframe><br /> <br /> <div> <br="" class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style" expr:addthis:title="alternative hip-rock" expr:addthis:url="http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com"> <a class="addthis_button_compact" href="http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&username=rythaman">Share</a><span class="addthis_separator">|</span><a class="addthis_button_facebook" href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=6730414591105361077"></a> <a class="addthis_button_myspace" href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=6730414591105361077"></a><a class="addthis_button_google" href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=6730414591105361077"></a> <a class="addthis_button_twitter" href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=6730414591105361077"></a> <script src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js#username=rythaman" type="text/javascript"> </script> </br=""></div>http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com/2011/09/getting-disturbed-hearing-voices.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (DJrythaman)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730414591105361077.post-1272494987536439129Tue, 06 Sep 2011 09:20:00 +00002012-06-20T14:48:30.947-04:00alternative hip rockalternative rockBiohazardblindcoal chamberhard rockheavy metalHouse of PainkornslipknotI can see, I can see I'm going BlindIn the middle of 94, Korn began recording their debut album with Ross Robinson. On October later that year, Korn released a self–titled album through Immortal/Epic, which eventually peaked at number 72 on the Billboard 200 in 95, as well as peaking at number 1 on the Heatseekers Albums chart. The album received positive reviews by critics, and it is said to have established a "new wave" of metal. As well as sparking the nu metal genre, the album also started record producer Ross Robinson's music career. It also influenced other bands, like Slipknot, Coal Chamber, and Limp Bizkit.<br /> <br /> After Korn finished recording the album, they began touring with House of Pain and Biohazard. Their record company gave them enough money for their own tour bus. Korn's first gig was in Atlanta. About half way through the tour, the tour bus that their record company gave them stopped working, and Korn had to find a new one. Their first tour was not very successful in promoting the album. So Korn started the "Sick of It All Tour" in January of 1995. Aside from touring, Korn released four singles. "Blind" was released on August 1994, and "Shoots and Ladders" was released on Halloween 1995. The latter received a Grammy nomination in 1997 for Best Metal Performance."Need To" was also released in 1995. The fourth and final single, "Clown", was released in February 1996.<br /> <br /> "Blind" was the only single to chart, so here it is! In my opinion, it is still their best album to date.<br /> <br />   <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="345" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/SGK00Q7xx-s" width="450"></iframe><br /> <br /> <div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style" expr:addthis:title="alternative hip-rock" expr:addthis:url="http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com"> <a class="addthis_button_compact" href="http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&username=rythaman">Share</a><span class="addthis_separator">|</span><a class="addthis_button_facebook" href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=6730414591105361077"></a> <a class="addthis_button_myspace" href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=6730414591105361077"></a><a class="addthis_button_google" href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=6730414591105361077"></a> <a class="addthis_button_twitter" href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=6730414591105361077"></a></div> <script src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js#username=rythaman" type="text/javascript"> </script>http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com/2011/09/korn-has-me-going-blind.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (DJrythaman)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730414591105361077.post-6092201708099692750Fri, 02 Sep 2011 13:34:00 +00002012-06-20T14:48:41.210-04:00alternative hip rockChester Benningtonhip rockJoe Haunlinkin parkMike Shinodarap rockrock musicWaiting for the End of Linkin ParkBack in early 2009, Linkin Park announced they were working on a 4th studio album, which was planned to be released in 2010. Mike Shinoda told IGN that the new album would be 'genre-busting,' building off of elements in Minutes to Midnight. He also mentioned that the album would be more experimental and "hopefully more cutting-edge." Chester Bennington also addressed the media to confirm that Rick Rubin would return to produce the new album. They later called this album, "A Thousand Suns".<br /> <br /> While working on the new album, Linkin Park worked with Hans Zimmer to produce the score for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. The band released a single for the movie entitled "New Divide". Joe Hahn created a music video for the song, which featured clips from the film. After completing work for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, the band returned to the studio to finalize their album.<br /> <br /> A Thousand Suns was released in September. The album’s first single, "The Catalyst", was released one month later. The band promoted their new album by launching a concert tour, which started in Los Angeles right around the release date of the album. Linkin Park also relied on MySpace to promote their album, releasing two additional songs, "Waiting for the End" and "Blackout" in September. <br /> <br /> Here's the song, Waiting For The End:<br /> <br /> <iframe width="450" height="345" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/5qF_qbaWt3Q" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br /> <br />  <div class='addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style' expr:addthis:title='alternative hip-rock' expr:addthis:url='http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com'><a href='http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&username=rythaman' class='addthis_button_compact'>Share</a><span class='addthis_separator'>|</span><a class='addthis_button_facebook'></a> <a class='addthis_button_myspace'></a><a class='addthis_button_google'></a> <a class='addthis_button_twitter'></a></div><script type="text/javascript" src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js#username=rythaman"></script> http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com/2011/09/waiting-for-end-of-linkin-park.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (DJrythaman)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730414591105361077.post-2947750484444995822Sat, 27 Aug 2011 12:48:00 +00002012-06-20T14:48:51.301-04:00alternative hip rockalternative rockconeheads soundtrackfunk rockred hot chili peppersrocksoul to squeezeSqueezing Souls"Soul to Squeeze" is a song by the American rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers that was originally recorded during the production of their fifth studio album, Blood Sugar Sex Magik (1991). Although it was not featured on the record, "Soul to Squeeze" was later released as a single in 1993 and was on the Coneheads film soundtrack.<br /> <br /> The song became an unexpected success when it peaked at number one on the U.S. Modern Rock Tracks as well as number 22 on the Hot 100.<br /> <br /> The music video for "Soul to Squeeze" features Chad Smith, Flea and Kiedis in a stereotypical circus. The song, which plays amongst all the acts of the circus, includes "freaks" and "the Conehead", a reference to the film.<br /> <br /> The music video was shot in black and white. Originally, the video was supposed to feature the band playing with footage from the film Coneheads, but the band refused this idea; instead, a Conehead appears in the video as the circus's Human Cannonball.<br /> <br /> One of my favorite actor/comedians, Chris Farley makes an appearance in the music video.<br /> <br /> <iframe width="450" height="345" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/SOGBIxuc0y8" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br /> <br /> <br />  <div class='addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style' expr:addthis:title='alternative hip-rock' expr:addthis:url='http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com'><a href='http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&username=rythaman' class='addthis_button_compact'>Share</a><span class='addthis_separator'>|</span><a class='addthis_button_facebook'></a> <a class='addthis_button_myspace'></a><a class='addthis_button_google'></a> <a class='addthis_button_twitter'></a></div><script type="text/javascript" src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js#username=rythaman"></script> http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com/2011/08/squeezing-souls.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (DJrythaman)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730414591105361077.post-7824212111977287400Mon, 22 Aug 2011 04:03:00 +00002012-06-20T14:49:02.335-04:00alternative hip hopalternative hip rockalternative musicalternative rockcakefolk rockfunk rocklong timeLong Time since I had some CakeCake is an American alternative rock band from California. The band has been noted for McCrea's sarcastic lyrics and deadpan voice, DiFiore's trumpet parts, and their wide-ranging musical influences, including country music, Mariachi, rock, funk, Iranian folk music and hip-hop.<br /> <br /> Cake got together in 1991 with McCrea, DiFiore, Greg Brown, Frank French and Sean McFessel, who soon left and was replaced by Nelson. Following the self-release of its debut album, "Motorcade of Generosity", the band was signed to Capricorn Records in 1995 and released its first single, "Rock 'n' Roll Lifestyle", which hit number 35 on the Modern Rock Tracks music chart; French and Nelson then left the band, and were replaced by Todd Roper and Victor Damiani. Cake's second album, "Fashion Nugget"; on the strength of the lead single, "The Distance", it went platinum. <br /> <br /> <iframe width="450" height="345" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/wQzoHe_Wq4g" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br /> <br />  <div class='addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style' expr:addthis:title='alternative hip-rock' expr:addthis:url='http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com'><a href='http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&username=rythaman' class='addthis_button_compact'>Share</a><span class='addthis_separator'>|</span><a class='addthis_button_facebook'></a> <a class='addthis_button_myspace'></a><a class='addthis_button_google'></a> <a class='addthis_button_twitter'></a></div><script type="text/javascript" src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js#username=rythaman"></script> http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com/2011/08/long-time-since-i-had-some-cake.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (DJrythaman)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730414591105361077.post-73284268473924775Sun, 21 Aug 2011 04:08:00 +00002012-06-20T14:49:14.202-04:00alternative hip rockalternative rockaudioslavechris cornellhard rockshadow on the sunChris Cornell creates a Shadow on the SunAudioslave was formed after Zack de la Rocha left Rage Against the Machine and the remaining members were searching for another vocalist. Producer and friend Rick Rubin suggested that they should contact Chris Cornell. Boy that was smart!<br /> <br /> Cornell was in the writing process of a second solo album, but decided to shelve that and pursue the opportunity to work with Tom Morello, Tim Commerford and Brad Wilk when they approached him. Morello described Cornell: "He stepped to the microphone and sang the song and I couldn't believe it. It didn't just sound good. It didn't sound great. It sounded transcendent. And... when there is an irreplaceable chemistry from the first moment, you can't deny it." The foursome wrote 21 songs during 19 days of rehearsal and began working in the studio in late May 2001.<br /> <br /> They are one of the greatest bands ever brought together.

They were originally known as Faith No Man. A year after they got together, the keyboardist Roddy Bottum joined the band, and Mike Morris was ousted, the group began to call themselves Faith No More. After going through a series of singers, the band was joined by Chuck Mosley in 1983. After two albums and several line-up changes, everything seemed to come together when vocalist Mosley was replaced by Mike Patton in 1988. <br /> <br /> In 1989, the band released their highly successful album, "The Real Thing", which featured their breakthrough hit single "Epic". The band's following album, 1992's "Angel Dust", was also highly successful and brought the hit "Midlife Crisis", which became their only #1 hit on the Modern Rock chart in their career. Faith No More however declined in popularity in the subsequent years.<br /> <br /> This song will always be EPIC!<br /> <br /> <iframe width="450" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/ERTT_sv8sV0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br /> <br />  <div class='addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style' expr:addthis:title='alternative hip-rock' expr:addthis:url='http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com'><a href='http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&username=rythaman' class='addthis_button_compact'>Share</a><span class='addthis_separator'>|</span><a class='addthis_button_facebook'></a> <a class='addthis_button_myspace'></a><a class='addthis_button_google'></a> <a class='addthis_button_twitter'></a></div><script type="text/javascript" src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js#username=rythaman"></script> http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com/2011/08/epic-beginning-with-faith-no-more.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (DJrythaman)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730414591105361077.post-3413864958469111064Tue, 16 Aug 2011 17:43:00 +00002012-06-20T14:49:49.835-04:00alternative hip hopalternative hip rockfat liphip rockrap rocksum41Sum41 Packs a Punch - Gave me a Fat LipSum 41 is a Canadian rock band from Ontario and they've been together since 1996.

It's a new genre of music and people are embracing it more and more every year.

There is sampling, hip hop grooves and beats, but I also wanted good old fashioned meat and potatoes: bass, guitar, drums.”<br /> <br /> In the smashing hip-hop flavored debut single, “Old Man,” Kaz offers a reluctant salute to his father, a larger-than-life figure who taught school during the day and raced stock cars at night (“The life he demanded/Kept us all in a struggle/When he ruled with his fist/It kept us all out of trouble”). “No father issues here,” says Kaz with a laugh.<br /> <br /> Here's the Official Redlight King Video for their debut song "Old Man":<br /> <br /> <iframe width="450" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Yxz58T2638M" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br /> <br /> <br />  <div class='addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style' expr:addthis:title='alternative hip-rock' expr:addthis:url='http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com'><a href='http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&username=rythaman' class='addthis_button_compact'>Share</a><span class='addthis_separator'>|</span><a class='addthis_button_facebook'></a> <a class='addthis_button_myspace'></a><a class='addthis_button_google'></a> <a class='addthis_button_twitter'></a></div><script type="text/javascript" src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js#username=rythaman"></script> http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com/2011/08/turn-on-redlight-king.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (DJrythaman)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730414591105361077.post-3290298120154686214Sat, 06 Aug 2011 09:31:00 +00002012-06-20T14:51:31.265-04:00alternative hip rockalternative musicalternative rockcakeshort skirt long jacketWould YOU Like Some Cake?Let me know...

Its genesis is traced to Led Zeppelin's rehearsals at Stargroves in 1972, when drummer John Bonham started with a beat similar to 1950s doo-wop, and then twisted it into a slight off beat tempo, upon which a reggae influence emerged. The distinctive drum sound was created by placing three microphones a good distance away from Bonham's drums.<br /> <br /> "D'yer Mak'er" is one of the few Led Zeppelin songs where all four members share the composer credit. This track, as well as another song entitled "The Crunge", was initially not taken seriously by many listeners, and some critics reserved their harshest criticism for these two arrangements. Look at them now, laughs.<br /> <br /> Here's 311 covering this great song:<br /> <br /> <iframe width="450" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/n96IGcSt1IA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br /> <br />  <div class='addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style' expr:addthis:title='alternative hip-rock' expr:addthis:url='http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com'><a href='http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&username=rythaman' class='addthis_button_compact'>Share</a><span class='addthis_separator'>|</span><a class='addthis_button_facebook'></a> <a class='addthis_button_myspace'></a><a class='addthis_button_google'></a> <a class='addthis_button_twitter'></a></div><script type="text/javascript" src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js#username=rythaman"></script> http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com/2011/08/311-gets-led-out.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (DJrythaman)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730414591105361077.post-7340779568554722960Mon, 01 Aug 2011 04:05:00 +00002012-06-20T14:52:11.888-04:00aerosmithalternative hip rockhip hopold school rapraprap rockrun dmcWalk This Way covered by Run DMC"Walk This Way" is a song by Aerosmith. Written by Steven Tyler and Joe Perry, the song was originally released from the 1975 album Toys in the Attic. In addition to being one of the songs that helped break Aerosmith into the mainstream in the 1970s, it also helped revitalize their career in the 1980s when it was covered by rappers Run-D.M.C. This cover was a touchstone for the new musical sub-genre of *rap rock*, or the melding of rock and hip-hop. This song has became an international hit:<br /> <br /> <iframe width="450" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/4B_UYYPb-Gk" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br /> <br />  <div class='addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style' expr:addthis:title='the alternative hip-rock hour' expr:addthis:url='http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com'><a href='http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&username=rythaman' class='addthis_button_compact'>Share</a><span class='addthis_separator'>|</span><a class='addthis_button_facebook'></a> <a class='addthis_button_myspace'></a><a class='addthis_button_google'></a> <a class='addthis_button_twitter'></a></div><script type="text/javascript" src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js#username=rythaman"></script> http://alternativehiprock.blogspot.com/2011/08/walk-this-way-covered-by-run-dmc.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (DJrythaman)0
