Courtney Love may be the centre of constant media criticism with her personal life but there’s no denying that once she hits that stage that she’s a fucking rock star. Walking on stage to the intro of new punk track “Wedding Day” she unleashed a 90 minute display of pure rock n roll. Performing a…

TRACK BY TRACK REVIEW: Ariana Grande – My Everything
Ariana Grande has well and truly transformed herself from a Nickelodeon TV actress to a pop diva. “My Everything” is her second studio album and offers a twelve track pop/RNB collision of brilliance and confusion. 1. “Intro” – Opening with a vocal piece accompanied by piano Ariana sings “I’ll give you all I have and…
ALBUM REVIEW: Anja Nissen- Anja Nissen
There’s no denying that Anja Nissen is a powerhouse vocalist and deserved to win The Voice Australia 2014. However the debut release by the singer is disappointing and can only be explained as a glorified karaoke album. Her winners single got cut last minute and therefore no original songs were included in the track listing….

SINGLE REVIEW: Jessie J – Bang Bang featuring Ariana Grande & Nicki Minaj
After a disappointing reception to her second album “Alive” Jessie J really needed to get the world back on her side with the first single from her upcoming third album, and she’s done it. “Bang Bang” is a track that is on FIRE, from the vocally fierce first line you instantly know she means business…
SINGLE REVIEW: Hilary Duff – Chasing The Sun
Hilary Duff’s return to music was undeniably one of the most anticipated comebacks of 2014 but she disappoints just the slightest. “Chasing The Sun” is a chilled summer anthem, one I imagine myself blasting on a road trip to the beach but otherwise I don’t picture myself playing. It’s hit and miss with the chorus…
SINGLE REVIEW: Lady Gaga & Tony Bennett – Anything Goes
On paper this collaboration shouldn’t work as they are the oddest pair you could ever pick but they surprise and give a commendable performance. “Anything Goes” is the lead single from the duo’s album “Cheek To Cheek” which is released in September and shocks in the right way. Lady Gaga’s vocals work so well with…
SINGLE REVIEW: The Script – Superheroes
After seeing The Script in concert last night I was convinced they were going to become as big as Coldplay. “Superheroes” is the first single from the bands forthcoming fourth studio album “No Sound Without Silence” and it delivers pop rock goodness. It’s nothing you wouldn’t expect from them and is almost borderline predictable but…
