Products similar to Monolith - Amebix
Ride The Beast - Buffalo
Lots of different tempos
None in particular
New And Improved - Julianne Regan and Mice
Good lyrics & great guitar lines
Some of the lyrics are a touch on the dark side
Youth Novels - Lykke Li
Some truly catchy pop songs, Li's gorgeous voice, simplistic production works effectively
Some pleasant enough but unmemorable tracks, Li's irritating wailing on "Time Flies"
The Week That Was - The Week That Was
A very strong Debút album, with subtle musical nods to Field Music.
Might be slightly too 'challenging ' for some people.
Two Pages - 4hero
Double bass, strings and intricate beats combine with sweet vocals to create beautiful tunes
Cheesy, electronic sci - fi DnB tracks ruin the feel
Shadows In The Light - Immolation
Booming vocals to match the strong messages
Well, it's death metal so there are limits to how much you can listen to and who likes it!
Very Best Of - Girlschool
People having fun, catchy guitar solos, decent vocals
None really!
Witch Of Berkeley Live - A II Z
Lots of classic tunes
Shame this is the band's only real album
From St. Louie To Frisco - Chuck Berry
Catchy lyrics, good guitar
Song of my love is awful
Total Metal: The Neat Anthology - Atomkraft
Groundbreaking stuff for the time
Not as good as artists who would go on to be influenced by them
