| Artist | Song | Review | |
| T & M | Golden Copies | This song is soft and sweet. The woman has an absolutely beautiful voice, I wish I could sing like that! The lyrics are sung graciously. The melody flows like a soft breeze as light guitars and percussion provide accompaniment. For some reason I'm hung up on movie themes, and this song would make a terrific theme song for a romantic film. I really like this song, everything is balanced and perfect. Great job, T & M! Download it now! | |

| Tallman | A Blinder Point of You | By
Clem Davis
Beginning with a mild bass riff, "A Blinder Point of You" quickly cranks up the volume and shows that Tallman is NOT afraid to ROCK. I hear echoes of Soundgarden or STP here blending with Tallman's own unique style. The singing is powerful but not obnoxious, and the drums are absolutely combustive! Bonus points are awarded for the song's invigorating bridge, with it's tempo changes and Foo Fighterish vocal screaming. Download it now, especially if you crave harder sounds. |

| Tapping the Vein | Beautiful | I love the beginning! Oooh! I like the singer's sound! Her voice fits awesomely! I love this song! Send me a CD! It reminds me of...a harder Garbage and a lighter Hole. Joydrop? Is that who I'm thinking of? Awesome. This is the best. I find nothing wrong with this song, and I strongly urge you to download this song and more from Tapping the Vein! | |

| Technoraisers | The Pleasurable Sin | Awesome…this is the scary type of music I was talking about! The guitar fits in perfectly, and I just love the dark sound! I can tell that this is a very pleasurable sin. Then the song calms down, ooh, guitar solo! Totally cool. Spooky! I’m enjoying this! The drums sound good, everything! This is also a perfect song and I love it. There is no voice to criticize, so all I have to say is download this song because I know you will most definitely love it! | |

| TentilEight | Walking Away | By
Clem Davis
I hear a touch of Live here, but without the angst. This is four-piece guitar/bass/drums/vox, and it's catchy and energetic. TentilEight don't cop any current "popular" style, and carefully balance their sound between rock and radio-ready power pop. The male singer has a great voice and the band is tight. Highly recommended. |

| Theo's Thang | Fire Breathing Monkey | By
Clem Davis
Oh oh. Somebody here has been listening to the Blue Oyster Cult. My old man (ha ha) has everything BOC ever did, and Theo's Thang sounds just like it came from the Agents of Fortune album! "Fire Breathing Monkey" starts out with a chunky blues-guitar riff and some snarly singing. An awesome-sounding guitar wails between the verses, then the vocalist sings about being in the grasp of drugs as he's "Driving spikes into my veins." There's a lot of creativity here in this loud heavy-rock tune- download it! |

| Jen Tobey | Ugly Woman | The beginning sounds like "There She Goes" by Sixpence None the Richer (or the La's). Jen Tobey's voice is slightly raw and it sounds really good with the acoustic guitar. This song is about a woman that is angry all of the time and her emotional ugliness is visible to everyone. Not someone I'd care to know! The only instrumentation is a clearly-recorded acoustic guitar with bass accompaniment. You all should download it today!! | |

| Tone Def Amigos | Whatever Breaks Your Heart | Gee, what a title. Somebody isn’t very happy with their relationship! This slab of power-pop reminds me of a cross between the Beatles and Oasis- drippy melodies, massive dynamics, retro-sounding guitars. These guys really know how to do vocal harmonies and they nail them perfectly! I’m not sure this is hit song material, but it is enjoyable as an album cut. I really like this song, and I know you will too, so why don’t you download it? | |

| Tracksuit | Hospital Flowers | I've never been in the hospital before, so obviously for that reason I've never received hospital flowers (which is good thing, I guess). This song sounds like a mixture of Vertical Horizon, Creed, and Fuel. Sweet! This is so good it deserves to be all OVER the radio. Programmers, are you listening? I like the cranking guitar solo and the way the singer sounds kinda tough, not wimpy like 3rd Eye Blind, but not forced-sounding like Eddie Vedder. This song is just cool all over (especially the guitar textures), so download it if you like Vertical Horizon, Creed, or Fuel - even if you don't like those three bands, I'm sure you'll love this song! | |

| Phil Traynor | Legacy No. 5 | Cute beginning. Kind of repetitive though. I’m getting a little tired of the same thing, this would be the big hit in elevator music!!!! That’s about the only place I would hear this other than on the home shopping network. This really isn't my kind of music, and I don’t think I could listen to this song again. It needs more instruments and it needs to move, faster. Guitars. Something! | |

| Tricks Upon Travellers | Knocker Boys | I absolutely love the fiddle parts! The singers voice took me in immediately. It sounds fresh from Europe and has a raw edge to it. If there's any song that could make it, it's this one. The first time I heard it, I said, I either need the c.d., or I need to download more of their songs. What does your intuition tell you? | |

| Turning Blue | Unhappy | This song immediately screams "I'm slick and hooky and I want to be on the radio NOW." "Unhappy" sounds like a lot of other current punk-rock bands, but is executed with near perfection. Guitars rule the tune, the bass and drums go along for the ride. The singer is good and has a lot of energy. Download this if you like commercial radio. | |

| TV Fifty | Bathtime | Awesome beginning! Great song! What does it have to do with bathtime though? Oh well. The guitars are a little bit dominant, so that means the singer is the recessive one. Graph out the Punnet Square. Sorry. We’re doing Punnet Squares in biology and those words came to mind. I love this song and it totally fits my current mood. This song rocks, I love it, so take my advice and download it now! | |
