  • Album Of The Year

    • 10 out of 10
    • Brother Love
    • Killer grooves, catchy riffs, edgy vocals with oh-so-just-right layered harmonies, and a drive that will move even YOU out of your chair, Brother Love's initial release is what rock and roll should be

    • Massive Attack
    • "Black Milk" knocks me off my feet in this collection of moody and eclectic songs. Massive Attack uses samples and keyboards in a very unique way, but not all the songs pack the same punch.

  • Suspended Animation

    • 8 out of 10
    • Fantomas
    • Mike Patton may well be one of the hardest working men in showbiz these days, and his latest with Fantômas underscores just about how far out he is willing to travel.

    • Goldfrapp
    • On their latest CD, Supernature, Goldfrapp has put together a successful mix of 1980-era New Romanticism, German cabaret, and T. Rex glam that leaves you riveted even through the album's lulls. It's a great amalgam that sounds current without sounding at all dated.

Blu-ray Movies Hold 2:1 Lead Over HD DVD

Movies on Blu-ray discs outsold those on HD DVD by 2 to 1 in the first half of 2007, according to Home Media Research on Tuesday.

The media magazine said that Blu-ray disc sales were 1.6 million from January through July 1, 2007. That compared to 795,000 HD DVD discs sold in the same period.

Since both formats were launched in the spring of 2006, an estimated 2.2 million Blu-ray titles have been sold compared to 1.5 million on HD DVD. HD DVD got an early start but recent popular titles like Casino Royale and 300 have helped Blu-ray with its recent lead.

Blockbuster, which recently evaluated rental patterns, has said that Blu-ray rentals were "significantly outpacing" HD DVD.
