Artist: Replicants
Following his amicable split with Tool in 1995, Paul D'Amour got together with keyboardist Chris Pitman and Failure members Greg Edwards and Ken Andrews for an offhanded project known as the Replicants. Aside from the obvious Blade Runner reference, the group's name also poked fun at the fact that the Replicants were nothing more than a... [+] Read More

Artist: The Replicants
Artist: Dawn of the Replicants
Named the “best new band of 1997" by the London Times, Dawn of The Replicants has quickly grown into one of the most inventive groups in the United Kingdom. Impossible to categorize, their music is, according to founders Paul Vickers and Roger Simian, a mix of “swamp rock, pop, glam-rock, electro-, girlie jazz, doo-wop, nasty ass blues, hip...

Artist: Bon Jovi
Few bands embodied the era of pop-metal like Bon Jovi. By merging Def Leppard's loud but tuneful metal with Bruce Springsteen's working-class sensibilities, the New Jersey-based quintet developed an ingratiatingly melodic and professional variation of hard rock -- one that appealed as much to teenagers as to housewives. Bon Jovi skillfully... [+] Read More
Artist: Queen
Few bands embodied the pure excess of the '70s like Queen. Embracing the exaggerated pomp of prog rock and heavy metal, as well as vaudevillian music hall, the British quartet delved deeply into camp and bombast, creating a huge, mock-operatic sound with layered guitars and overdubbed vocals. Queen's music was a bizarre yet highly accessible... [+] Read More
Artist: Westlife
In the tradition of British and Irish boy bands like Take That and Boyzone comes Dublin's Westlife, a quintet consisting of Shane Filan, Nicky Byrne, Bryan McFadden, Mark Feehily, and Kian Egan. Filan, Egan, and Feehily were among the group's six founding members, but the other half of the group was dispatched when Louis Walsh, Boyzone's... [+] Read More
Artist: Def Leppard
Def Leppard, in many ways, was the definitive hard rock band of the '80s. There were many bands that rocked harder, and were more dangerous, than the Sheffield quintet, but few others captured the spirit of the times quite as well. Emerging in the late '70s as part of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, the group actually owed more to the glam... [+] Read More
Artist: Queensrÿche
Although they were initially grouped in with the legions of pop-metal bands that dominated the American heavy metal scene of the '80s, Queensrÿche were one of the most distinctive bands of the era. Where their contemporaries built on the legacy of Van Halen, Aerosmith, and Kiss, Queensrÿche constructed a progressive form of heavy metal that... [+] Read More
Artist: U2
Through a combination of zealous righteousness and post-punk experimentalism, U2 became one of the most popular rock & roll bands of the '80s. Equally known for their sweeping sound as for their grandiose statements about politics and religion, they were rock & roll crusaders during an era of synthesized pop and heavy metal. The Edge provided... [+] Read More
Artist: The Rolling Stones
By the time the Rolling Stones began calling themselves the World's Greatest Rock & Roll Band in the late '60s, they had already staked out an impressive claim on the title. As the self-consciously dangerous alternative to the bouncy Merseybeat of the Beatles in the British Invasion, the Stones had pioneered the gritty, hard-driving blues-based... [+] Read More
Artist: Covenant
Covenant is a Swedish electronic band signed to San Francisco's 21st Circuitry Records. Their music is built around deep, droning tones and thundering rhythms that support dark songs focusing on science fictional and cyberpunk themes, such as "Replicant" and "Painamplifier" from Dreams of a Cryotank. The third recorded band to use the name... [+] Read More

Offering an ever growing directory of CD/DVD replication and duplication companies, Graphics Companies, Mastering Companies (and more),... [+] Read More
Artist: Rod Stewart
Rod Stewart may have began his career as a respected singer, yet that respect eroded as he got older, as he became more concerned with stardom than music. While he has recorded some terrible albums -- and he would admit that freely -- Stewart was once rock & roll's best interpretive singer, as well as an accomplished songwriter, creating a raw...

Artist: Satish
Satish is one of the few musicians to play the Firebird, a trumpet with an additonal trombone slide built in. With this instrument, Satish can replicate the music of Indian instruments he heard while growing up in an Indian household. Born in 1971, he didn't attempt to pursue a career in jazz trumpet until a move to New York City in 1996. It was... [+] Read More
Artist: Harmonik420
The concept is: the soundtrack to the daily struggle of resisting economic and political oppression. I began making stuff that sounds like music more than ten years ago, playing a stringed instrument in an aggressive fashion, and, more recently, an antiquated keyboard-style machine. About three years ago I was introduced to a digital... [+] Read More
Artist: Coven
Yet another minor-league thrash band unable to replicate its regional success on the national or international stage, Seattle, WA's Coven featured vocalist Jay Clark, guitarists Paul Hash and Dean Babbitt, bassist Gary Peebles, and drummer Neal Babbitt. They only recorded two albums, Blessed Is the Black (1988) and Death Walks Behind You (1989),... [+] Read More
Artist: David Bowie
The cliché about David Bowie says he's a musical chameleon, adapting himself according to fashion and trends. While such a criticism is too glib, there's no denying that Bowie demonstrated remarkable skill for perceiving musical trends at his peak in the '70s. After spending several years in the late '60s as a mod and as an all-around... [+] Read More

Kudu is a New York group that includes Sylvia Gordon (vocals, bass), Deantoni Parks (drums), Nick Kasper (keyboards), and Peter Stoltzman (keyboards) and that blends jazz, soul, and electronica into a heady concoction of urban music.

Artist: Opie
Replicating the immortal fun of old transistor radio classics, and saturating the sound in contemporary fuzz, Opie captures the excitement of Rock n' Roll and cooks it into something they can call their own. The creation is a hybrid rock that will motivate listeners to snap their fingers, do the twist, and bang their heads all at the same... [+] Read More
Artist: Carlo Graziani
Graziani was a cellist whose musical compositions demonstrated and replicated his virtuosity. The medium of his range was quite high compared to the remaining register of the instrument. He would often compose extremely fast passages with polyphony and double-stops. The first movements of his compositions would often include two seemingly... [+] Read More
