| | Todd Band Hunter Life Is Good CD - Import Todd Band Hunter Discography of CDs
"Life Is Good", Todd Hunter Band's current album, demonstrates the band's nostalgic fondness for the classic two-sided vinyl records they listened to as kids. Side One of "Life Is Good" showcases the band's pop sensibilities with hope, patience, recovery, and forgiveness-themed songs. The album seems to signal a departure from the despair-ridden songs off of "Remember", but Side Two returns to the band's college rock roots with several nihilistic gems. The result is a record that, although split into two halves musically and lyrically, still maintains the now definitive Todd Hunter Band sound while preaching a new message: life is good, but it's never easy.Winnipeg singer/songwriter Todd Hunter and bandmates Jeff Derksen (guitar, vocals), Larry Kowalski (bass guitar) and Brett Papineau (drums) perform melodic adult alternative pop-rock. The summer of 2004 marked the release of THB's debut album Remember which earned positive reviews and TOP 20 chart positions at several college campus radio stations in Canada, regional commercial radioplay, airtime on various CBC programs, and feature-usage for one of its songs in the CTV/Lifetime movie “Playing House”. With an upcoming TV appearance on PBS’s “Sound Check”, and the follow-up album Life Is Good now available, Todd Hunter Band is poised to reach a much larger audience.PRESS REVIEWS"FILE UNDER: Two sides of Life. SUBSTANCE: Remember vinyl records? Of course you don't. But the guys in the Todd Hunter Band do. And fondly. So their impressive sophomore disc Life Is Good is set up like a phonograph record, with one "side" of summery, rootsy alt-pop and another of darker, edgier fare. Double your pleasure. STANDOUTS: The Coldplayish glisten of the title cut; the Blue Rodeoish We're Fine; the crunching How I Need You Now. ***1/2 (out of ****)" - Darryl Sterdan, Sun Media Todd Band Hunter Life Is Good Songs | 1. | Life Is Good |

Life Is Good
$7.96
By the early '80s, the Rolling Stones were one of the last remaining groups leftover from the original "British Invasion" two decades prior. One of the main reasons for this was the Stones' ability to keep pace with the musical climate of the time, without losing any of their original blues-sleaze. Their 1982 live set (fourth overall) STILL LIFE, was taken from performances from their hugely successful U.S. tour a year before, when Mick, Keith and company headlined the biggest outdoor stadiums and vast arenas.

It's no secret that one of the most powerful weapons in Zappa's arsenal was his sense of humor, which was at its height in live performance. Consequently, there's no better way to get a feel for the full scope of Zappa's music than on the live ROXY & ELSEWHERE. This set finds Frank at his mid-'70s peak, ...

| | Lula Miss Corona CD (2005)
Life Is Good
$14.79
PAST REVIEWS: San Francisco Bay Guardian : A touch of Belly, a touch of chunky power pop, and a healthy slathering of melodic, handy hooks: Any way you mix it, it's a catchy recipe, and methinks Lula Miss knows how to cook. Opening track of "12 Mistakes" spotlights singer-guitarist (Ualani) Teale's wistful vocals as they sigh, croon, and reach out to pluck the ol' heartstrings with a steady, mellifluous touch. "Liar" gets grittier, kicking off with a vicious, neometallic guitar riff before settling down to a rocking, tempo-shifting rumble. For the plaintive "Wears Thin," one of the guitar boys - either Chris Molla or Matt Sherman - supplies vocals for a soulful, doleful farewell to love that features a dreamy acoustic touch and lots of convincing agony: "She came from Dallas / She couildn't walk a straight line / She seemed so callous / I didn't seem to mind." Sometimes pain is such a pleasure, y'know? "Bride," a biting tale of self-discovery, closes the tape with a chorus of jangling guitars and jaunty keyboards. Two thumbs up, missies. -Neva ChoninBAM Magazine: Not too many San Francisco bands would flaunt reviews that align them with mainstream acts like Toad the Wet Sprocket and Belinda Carlisle, but when it comes to pure pop ambition few are as honest as Lula Miss. Singer (Ualani) Teale's sweet voice hangs nicely against the backdrop of mid-tempo guitar workouts. On tender songs like "12 Mistakes" she even spins two-ply melodies that are both invigorating and soothing, suggesting dark corners underneath the band's breezy exterior. --Aidin VaziriMTV Online: Without management or label representation, a local band has their work cut out for them trying to stand out in the competitive San Francisco market. Just ask freshman pop band LULA MISS who have been gigging around the city for the past five years on their own. Some bands with the same degree of determination, concentration and belief in their own music would have given up without industry support. But those bands probably couldn't match the sounds of LULA MISS' debut release Corona. Judging from its catchy, melodic guitar-pop sounds, the long-awaited commercial attention might be closer than they think.Corona identifies a gathering of musical influences that come together to give the band its unique pop sound. The combination of the fourteen tracks bring back memories of some of TOAD THE WET SPROCKET's more down-tempo, heartfelt guitar strums, while focus tracks "Twisted" and "She's Everything" fall into the category of power-pop with their metallic guitar riffs that give the songs a harder edge. "Liar" nods to JEWEL's lyrics sweetened by a resonant female voice, and "This Time" highlights up-tempo, guitar-pop influences from ...
| | Coheed & Cambria No World For Tomorrow CD (2007) Bonus DVD; Deluxe Edition; Edited
Life Is Good
$16.95
Like previous prog powerhouses Rush and Yes, Coheed and Cambria showcase an immediately divisive element in singer Claudio Sanchez's high, sweet voice--a choirboy lilt that undermines the musical muscle for some, while granting it an additional dimension for others. No matter the listener's opinion on the vocals, no one can deny the scope and ambition of C and C's vision. NO WORLD FOR TOMORROW is not just an album--it's also the next chapter in the band's multimedia sci-fi comic book story, THE AMORY WARS. It's rare for a band to use its music specifically to tell a continuous, overarching story, and even rarer for it to come with its own accompanying comic.
The music, like the concept, is a distinct throwback ...
