The year 2023 is coming to an end and after reviewing and listening to many albums this year, these are my favorites. They are all listed in no particular order (because they are different styles), except for Sleep Token, which is not only my favorite of this year, but perhaps one of the favorites of my life, so they deserved the number 1. 1. Sleep Token – Take Me Back To Eden The…
With summer approaching (at least in this part of the world), I wanted to write a list of my top 10 favorite rock party songs. While these songs are mostly from the ’80s, they are timeless and have become anthems for a good time. Almost all of them belong to a genre called Glam Rock, Glam Metal, or Hair Metal, which began in the late 70s. This is one of my favorite subgenres in music…

Chile’s national day is celebrated on September, 18th. It marks the beginning of the Chilean Independence process, in 1810, from Spain. We usually celebrate this national holiday with a barbecue and our families and friends. The music that is listened to is cumbia, reggaeton, and other Latin rhythms. But since this is a rock website, I will proceed to make a mini bio of my three favorite Chilean bands and make a list of five…
The Band This is a deathcore Supergroup, formed by the singers Will Ramos (Lorna Shore), Dickie Allen (Infant Annihilator), Taylor Barber (Left to Suffer), Tyler Shelton (Traitors), and Darius Tehrani (Spite). Tyler Shelton had the idea of putting together a band with all these singers, and he invited them one by one to join. Originally, they were going to be six members and be called the “Big Six” (like Thrash’s Big 4), with also Chris…
Dolly Parton surprised us recently with the announcement of a new album, Rockstar, to be released in November 2023, in which several rock musicians collaborate with her doing rock covers and a couple of original songs.

The Japanese author Dr. Masaru Emoto claimed that we could affect the molecular structure of water. Just by sending intentions to it, there can be physical changes. He froze water crystals as they were affected by different types of messages, prayers, thoughts, and music, and he discovered that the water molecules were different when they were exposed to distinct stimuli. When people sent prayers or thoughts about love, or they played classical music, the crystal…
For me, it was difficult to choose these songs, because I love almost all Iron Maiden’s songs. They’re my favorite heavy metal band of all time, and I will always be grateful to them since they were the first metal band that I heard (when I was 12), and thanks to that, I have fallen in love with the genre ever since. Of course, the list is a little selection, of what I think are…
