Dave Matthews Band – Stand Up

Rating: 3.5/5Released: May 10, 2005Reviewer: David Coats It’s been a long road for the Dave Matthews Band. Stand Up is their first studio release in three years, and is musically a much more inspired collection of songs than their previous album, Busted Stuff.

Oasis – Don’t Believe The Truth

Rating: 3.5/5Released: May 31, 2005Reviewer: David Coats Don’t Believe The Truth again proves that Oasis, despite their posturing, are not the best band in rock music. It also again proves that they will probably never recapture the electricity of the (What’s The Story) Morning Glory? era.

Ryan Adams – Cold Roses

Rating: 3/5Released: May 3, 2005Reviewer: Nathan Atnikov Despite questionable industry standards dictating that every album that has more than 16 tracks apparently must be packaged as a double, Cold Roses is one such release that actually deserves it.

Joel Plaskett – La De Da

Weezer – Make Believe

Rating: 2.5/5Released: May 10, 2005Reviewer: Connor Turner In mid-February I wasted 2 valuable hours watching a Happy Days reunion special. At the time it didn’t make any sense.

Audioslave – Out of Exile

Rating: 3/5Released: May 24, 2005Reviewer: David Coats By now everyone knows the story of how vocalist Chris Cornell, of 90’s alternative stars Soundgarden, joined forces with drummer Brad Wilk, bassist Tim Commerford, and guitarist Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine to form Audioslave.
