Bon Jovi already released a few number of compilation for the last decade or more in their career. However, you won’t be able to see one named “Greatest Hits” in those release until today, they finally released one, with 2 CDs and includes only those singles that became a big hit throughout their career.

I grew up with my Dad and the entire neighborhood’s speakers all stuck with songs from Bon Jovi, Scorpions, and some more notable Hard Rock, Glam Metal/Glam Rock songs that were still popular in the 90′s. Bon Jovi’s a very good band. Many current modern bands cites Jon Bon Jovi and his band an influence in making music. Although I myself do not have a band, I still rock with Bon Jovi songs in Guitar Hero and Rock Band. Hopefully, modern bands will not forget how Bon Jovi became their influence. Check out the Greatest Hits from the band.

Queens of the Stone Age is a nice band. They do experimental rock and their sound is comparable to Audioslave, the latter also does experimental rock. I first heard Queens of the Stone Age’ sound through playing Guitar Hero, specifically “No One Knows”. In fact, that’s the only song I know from them, and the only reason why I downloaded this album. I’m currently listening to it. I hope you enjoy QOTSA’s 2002 release “Songs for the Deaf”.
