The “Modern Music” of The Click Five


If you like bands similar to Green Day, then The Click Five would definitely suit your taste. The Click Five is an American Alternative Rock band from Boston, Massachusetts. They are composed of Kyle Patrick, Joe Guese, Ethan Mentzer, Ben Romans and Joey Zehr. Four of the five original members attended the Berklee College of Music. They also participated in many other rock bands before coming together to form “The Click”, which later became The Click Five. Their debut album’s title got its name from a rented house on Imrie Road. The album, Greetings from Imrie House, was released 16 August 2005.


The band began recording their first album at QDivision Studios in Somerville with Mike Denneen, under the record label Lava Records. Following the completion of the recording, they began touring, at smaller venues around the Boston area to larger ones across North America.


In late 2006,the lead singer Eric Dill left the band. In early 2007, the band brought on new lead singer Kyle Patrick. Then, the band recorded their second studio album, Modern Minds and Pastimes. It was released on 26 June 2007. After the release, they had a small United States tour. The band returned to Asia in autumn 2007 with a significantly larger itinerary. They were given the title "Band of the Year" by 987FM (Singapore) in the Top 100 Countdown of 2007. On August 2, 2008, The Click Five won the Knockout Award at MTV Asia Awards 2008, in Genting Highlands, Malaysia. On August 29, 2008, lead singer Kyle Patrick announced on his Myspace page that he is going on a solo acoustic tour with his friend Jesse Ruben in some cities in the US.


They are currently back on the studio, writing new songs for their new album, which they plan to release by early 2009.

Coldplay's Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends Review


Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends (also simply known as Viva la Vida) is the fourth studio album by British alternative rock band Coldplay. I liked the songs on this album; however, I find the title quite crappy… It’s just my opinion though. :) It made me wonder where on earth they got the title for the album. While googling and browsing the web, I’ve read that the album got it’s name (Viva la Vida takes) from a painting by Frida Kahlo, the acclaimed 20th century Mexican artist. Although the title name is attributed to Kahlo, the album cover art is actually an 1830 painting by Eugène Delacroix entitled Liberty Leading the People.


The album was released on 11 June 2008 in Japan, 12 June 2008 in the United Kingdom and on 17 June 2008 in North America. In May 2008, Coldplay released two singles from the record: "Violet Hill" and "Viva la Vida", the latter becoming the band's first song to reach number one in the United States and the United Kingdom. As of September 2008, more than 5 million copies have been sold worldwide, making it the best selling album of the year.


The album has, to date, been the number-one-selling album in 36 countries around the world. In the United States, it sold 316,000 copies in its first day, and 720,000 in its first week. In the UK, the album sold 125,000 copies in its first day of release and 302,074 in three days, debuting at number one. The album has since sold over 500,000 copies in 10 days since its release, beating the first week UK sales of Coldplay's previous album, X&Y. Viva la Vida has become the most paid-for downloaded album of all time. In late 2008, Coldplay announced they would be releasing an EP, Prospekt's March, consisting of unreleased Viva la Vida material.

The ever hot Pussycat dolls dominate


"Inside every woman is a Pussycat Doll," says Robin Antin, the innovator behind the singing-and-dancing ensemble that has risen from underground cool to major label hot. "It's about female empowerment, about being confident with who you are. It's about singing and dancing in front of a mirror by yourself and having fun."


The Pussycat Dolls are an American pop girl group, and dance ensemble founded by choreographer Robin Antin in 1995. The group is composed of Ashley Roberts, Nicole Scherzinger, Jessica Sutta, Melody Thornton and Kimberly Wyatt. The group began as a burlesque troupe based in Los Angeles, before being "re-cast" as a music group in 2003, then diversified into Reality TV programmes, a Las Vegas act and venue, and other ventures overseen by Antin and her partners. The music group released their first single in 2004, and have gone on to international commercial success. On September 13, 2005, they released their debut album, PCD, debuting at number five on the Billboard 200. Their first single, "Don't Cha" was a hit, reaching number one in multiple countries including UK, Australia and Canada and peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot 100. The song was originally a cover of the Tori Alamaze single featuring rapper Busta Rhymes. The group won a Billboard Music Award for "Don't Cha" (Ralphi Rosario mix) as Hot Dance Music/Club Play Single of the Year. The ballad "Stickwitu" was another top five in the U.S.


They recently released their second studio album Doll Domination on September 23, 2008. Their first single "When I Grow Up" was released on May 2008. The song charted in the top 40 in most countries. The song charted at number nine on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and number one on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play.


Well, I guess the pussycat dolls really succeeded in their domination… Don’t cha agree?!
