How Do You Write A Music Review?
One way to share your views about a new CD is to write a music review. There are dozens of websites that accept unsolicited music reviews. Follow these steps to make your opinion heard. Listen to the CD a few times. Write down how you feel while you listen. Be objective. Research background material about the band. Read the album cover. Start with the facts: who the band is, what type of music it is, past albums, how many tracks the current CD has and song titles. Opening with your opinion is not a good idea; you want readers to read your entire article, not just the first paragraph. Bring your impressions and point of view alive. Give examples. Use poetic language. Select specific tracks that you feel strongly about, and share which tracks disliked too. Form an opinion about the music. Write specifically about the CD you are reviewing, not as much about the band itself or its past CDs. Expand on your ideas. Make comparisons to other musical acts, if appropriate. Summarize your thought
