...very quickly disproved on the band’s debut. Opener “No One Loves Me & Neither Do I” sees its guitars set about slowly and heavily crushing what melody there is. Proceeding at a restrained pace for a while before shifting into an incredible stomp for its final two minutes, the unrelenting assault of the opener proves that TCV have no intention of making shiny guitar rock like Foo Fighters or the classic heavy metal of Led Zeppelin. This is very much QOTSA-style, furiously aggressive hard rock...
...trying out a new musical style: mixing classical with the blues. On Nov. 19, the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra will premier Blues Symphony, Marsalis' first work composed exclusively for orchestra. It celebrates the blues through moments in American history and, in Marsalis' words, "incorporates the call-and-responses, train whistles, stomp-down grooves, big-city complexities and down-home idiosyncrasies of Afro-American and American music." Ahead of the symphony's premiere, the jazz master spoke with TIME about working with an orchestra, the significance of the blues and why he finds rap music repellent...

She sings in perfect pitch, but there is no feeling; in a market where the pop audience demands sincerity, or at least heart, Underwood can provide neither. Worst of all, the song lacks recognizable hooks or an engaging melody. It’s all bluster, no substance...

However, the addition of a distorted single-note piano line that glides like a phantom and the far-off stomp of the drums is what truly makes the song. The number also highlights the strength of the vocalists both on their individual verses and the tightly coiled haunt of their lush harmonies. Easily the most stirring on the album, “Almost Let You In” maintains...
...link that would enhance regional cooperation as well as boost the nation's wealth. Calming separatist passions would also serve as a lesson to the Pakistani military, which, as seen during the traumatic and bloody independence of Bangladesh (formerly East Pakistan), has a habit of trying to brutally stomp out secessionist movements. At a moment when there are so many hearts and minds to be won - and boots on the ground stretched so thin - it wouldn't hurt to give peace a chance...
