  Gomez - Music Downloads - Online
Bio: The British band Gomez is a five-piece, consisting of Ben Ottewell (vocals, guitar), Tom Gray (vocals, guitar, keyboards), Paul Blackburn (bass, guitar), Olly Peacock (drums), and Ian Ball (vocals, guitar, harmonica).
Whereas the majority of up-and-coming British bands are either retro-pop (à la Oasis), trip-hop (Portishead), or space rock (the Verve, Radiohead), Gomez is one of the few to contain bluesy elements in their rock.
Their debut for Virgin Records, Bring It On, was praised in the rock press on both sides of the Atlantic.

 Virgin Black Interview - 2001
Rowan's band Virgin Black just released their first album through Massacre Records and the disc contains that combination of dark with beautiful -a relaxed atmosphere with heaviness- that seems to fit them like a well ironed suit.
There are a lot of stories of bands and maybe one of their famous songs was written at a rehearsal and they talk about how they came up with the first riff and then the drummer played a beat to it and it goes on like that.
When we found each other she was already leading the band and she was writing all the music for it.

 Richard Cheese - Music Downloads - Online
Bio: It's unfortunate that the cultural value of Limp Bizkit's "Nookie," 2 Live Crew's "Me So Horny," and Beyoncé's "Naughty Girl" seems lost to the generation graced with such rich music, but if there's one man who can point out the timelessness of these tunes it's Richard Cheese.
He donned his tiger-striped tuxedo, rounded up some Vegas-minded musicians for his swanky swing band, and made his debut in 2000 with Lounge Against the Machine, released by the Oglio label.
Cheese's uncensored and "swankified" covers of Nine Inch Nails' "Closer" and Nirvana's "Rape Me" quickly found favor with morning shock jocks on the radio and novelty music fans in the record stores.

 DRAGON PRODUCTIONS
Lets be honest: even for most Metal experts the history of epic metal band Virgin Steele begins with the release of their album NOBLE SAVAGE in 1985.
Virgin Steele then explored their classical influences, the opera ‘Klytaimnestra oder der Fluch der Atriden’ was performed at Landestheater Schwaben and the corresponding soundtrack albums HOUSE OF ATREUS (ACT I and II) were released briefly after the successful opera shows.
Their music is still hymnic heavy metal influenced by classical music, and the band under the guidance of mastermind DeFeis is still bursting with power and creativity even after twenty years.

 Cell Phones and Service from Virgin Mobile
No matter how different we as individuals are, there are ties that bind us, and The Hold Steady has put their sights on those ties more than any modern-day band.
The core of The Hold Steady, guitarist-singer Craig Finn and guitarist Tad Kubler, were in the Minneapolis band Lifter Puller before they packed up and headed east to New York City to start a new group.
With the wisdom of a slap-happy Springsteen and the energy of a dozen Budweiser Clydesdales, their 2004 debut The Hold Steady Almost Killed Me introduced listeners to a fictional but tangible world starring characters with names like Charlemagne and Gideon, and loads of blow-out parties full of drug-addled sin, music, and youths gone wild.

I am not on a crusade against record labels - but I love to see a band step up and fight when they feel they are someone's stooge.
Bands don't make a whole lot of money of these kinds of greatest hits albums.
The quality of the recording is on par with the original masters, and some of the songs have been slightly reworked - but not so much that you still would feel the need to buy the original recordings.

At Virgin, the band's members were good-natured and seemed genuinely appreciative of the attention they were receiving—26 years after they had formed.
Duran Duran's influence is no less potent today as newer bands like The Killers, The Scissor Sisters and Franz Ferdinand continue to say they owe a huge debt to them.
The band members are once again media darlings, and the reunion no doubt played a big part.

It seems that only from this particular point in time the band featuring vocalist/mastermind David DeFeis and his long-time songwriting partner and guitarist Edward Pursino started to develop into what they stand for today.
The overwhelming success of this project led to yet another opera 'Hel oder die Rebellen' which was once again performed at Landestheater Schwaben in the summer of 2001.
But let's not forget 'The Redeemer', which sounds so much more powerful now with the newly added orchestrated parts.
