Stream Bruce Springsteen's New Album and Read Our Review


It's been over 40 years since his debut and yet Bruce Springsteen is still finding a way to generate "firsts" in his storied career. This time it's High Hopes, a collection of covers and outtakes recorded over the last year. The E Street Band is in tow, as well as Tom Morello, who has been serving as a fill-in for Steven Van Zandton tour and appears on over half the album's tracks, including a lead vocal spot on "The Ghost of Tom Joad." Our Stephen Thomas Erlewine says the collection "oscillates between the moody and militant" in his review, and you can hear it in full below.

Update: The full album stream has expired, but enjoy the title track.

Song Writing Tips & Tricks

By -
  There are literally hundreds of different methods used to write a song, and every musician has tailored their own rhyme and reason of doing things. Sometimes it’s as easy as playing some piano and having the words write themselves, or it can start with a poem and a mission to find the right music to fit it. I have compiled some of the ways I have come across to write your own music. Please keep in mind that these are only a few of many different ways to come up with your own material, and these are great ways to learn. But you get much more satisfaction if you start from scratch. Enjoy, and I hope this helps.   Scaffolding Stuck? Here’s an old trick to get you going. What a good song offers is structure, repetition, form and balance. Not always easy to create, but easy to borrow. You can build on the form of another song, without sounding at all like that song. Much as a scaffold is used to frame a skyscraper — the scaffold may look familiar, but once removed yields a...

Who Were The Highest Rockers Of Rock N Roll? Back when sex and drugs were still a part of rock-n-roll, these legends of rock wrote the book, ripped out the pages and rolled them into a joint. No one is glorifying drug use or dying in a bloody pool of your own vomit. However, it was once not only accepted but expected for musicians to live a life of excess. The mere mortals of the world could live vicariously through these rock gods. Here are 20 of the most drugged-out musicians of the rock and roll era: 1. Keith Richards Rolling Stones   guitarist, Keith Richards, who has frequently made music magazines’ top ten musicians most likely to die, is not ready to dance with Mr. D quite yet. He has spent time with sister morphine, her brother heroin, cousin cocaine and the rest of the family, all while creating a fifty year rock dynasty with partner in crime, Mick Jagger. Despite a life lived as the poster child for rock-n-roll excess, he never overdosed, for which ...
