CQ2. Were you glad Creed got back together?
CQ3. What is your favorite Creed album?
My favorite is "Weathered"
I haven’t heard the new one yet.
I’m not sure how it compares to their others. I haven’t heard all of it. I do like "Overcome", kinda iffy about "Rain". As far as albums go. I like "My Own Prison" the best, followed by "Weathered" and then "Human Clay." And yeah, glad to see them back. I like Alter Bridge too, though.

Christmas 2009 finds no shortage of Christmas music for the holiday-lover to enjoy, although new pop or rock x-mas albums seem somewhat lacking this year. Nonetheless, there are still some interesting choices to consider for your wish list:
Bob Dylan releases his first Christmas album (who knew the guy even celebrated Christmas?) with a straightforward collection of traditional tunes that should please and probably bewilder his long-time fans. However he’s donating his royalties to charity, and the deluxe edition of the cd contains exclusive greeting cards so it’s a decent enough project irregardless of whether Bob should be belting out Hark The Herald Angels Sing.
Andrea Bocelli’s holiday album, produced by David Foster, should be the perfect accompaniment to those who bought Josh Groban’s 2007 Noel
A Very Special Christmas 7 continues the long-running Special-Olympic charity series, although this time out the compilers are very obviously going after the teen market, with acts such as Miley Cyrus, Vanessa Hudgens, Sean Kingston and Ashley Tisdale making their holiday contributions. It’s a far cry from the first AVSC
Sting releases his first holiday album, but don’t think for a minute that he’ll be singing Santa Claus is Coming to Town or Frosty the Snowman; with titles such as The Hounds of Winter and Lullaby For An Anxious Child, this is a moodier, sombre affair than most Christmas albums.
David Archuleta’s Christmas album will do doubt keep his many American Idol supporters happy, and early reviews seem to indicate he’s winning over his critics with a sincere effort, including songs sung in French, Spanish and Latin.
A rather odd re-release sees Pebbles & Bamm-Bamm making an appearance on cd as a Flintstones Christmas album from 1965 resurfaces in 2009. Unusual, yes, timely, no, but if you wanted your kids (or grandkids at this point) to experience holiday fun that you had as a youngster watching the Flintstones Christmas specials, this isn’t a bad way to go.
And finally, in an idea either absurd or brilliant (or maybe both), Sony is re-releasing a collection of their more popular Christmas albums on DVD, with the original albums accompanied by images of yule logs, christmas trees and other christmas scenes. Alternately, the images can be viewed without music, particularly the yule log if you prefer to just watch a fireplace crackling on your tv. Titles include Johnny Cash

I listen to a lot of grunge from the 90’s to bands like tool, breaking benjamin, Incubus, etc. What are some new bands that I might like? Getting tired of the same songs on my Ipod!
Have you listened to Breaking Benjamin’s new album?
I’d give you a list of more bands but you probably know all of them.
I’m pretty sure it’s the Top Gear ad on Dave, and the song with all the violins and cellos and all that. Sounds a bit like Apocalyptica to me, but I can’t place the song!
Its called ‘That Golden Rule’ by ‘Biffy Clyro’. It’s awesome:) They play it a few times on www.Rockradio.co.uk every night. I love it 
I live in Scotland and I heard that the new three days album is coming out but will it come out in the UK because the last one didn’t but I ordered that off the internet. The first one did but will this one?
Thanks for the help.
GET PUMPED!!!! 7 DAYS!!!
Well I used to listen to metalcore (Killswitch Engage, As i Lay Dying, etc.) but I want some heavier stuff. Like, half way between metalcore and death metal, but more modern (I don’t listen to Black Sabbath, Ozzy Osbourne or Metallic, etc.)
I just got my first paycheck, $186.74, and I’m planning to buy 6-8 albums.
Any suggestions?
you could check out suicide silence and other deathcore bands as they are somewhere between metalcore and death metal.
you could also check out the melodic death metal bands that inspired alot of the metalcore sound such as
arch enemy
in flames
soilwork
children of bodom etc
and then there are bands like
lamb of god-i would recoomend buying ashes of the wake.
devildriver-the last kind words
machine head-the blackening

Over the past few years I have spent quite a few dollars to get all of The Beatles music on CD. Now they have re-released these CD’s and they have been digitaly remastered. Is it worth buying them all over again?
Personal choice. I’m listening to ‘Blackbird’ off the White Album remaster right now and no kidding it’s like Paul is in the room (I wish), for hardcore fans I can’t reccommend them enough but the average music listener probably wouldn’t notice the difference.
I don’t think there is that much difference for me to go out and buy the whole back catalog again!
$$$$$$ might be the answer if they are originals, I like vinyl as it adds character as time passes
