Album Reviews
Album reviews are an excellent opportunity for you to see what other people think about selected albums and also to keep up with artist news. Not only do these reviews include opinions about the production of the albums—such as instrument choices, vocals, style, lyrical content, etc.—but our writers also include a few facts from artist biographies to give you a better picture of who these bands are. Not everyone has the same opinions about music, so we try to get a couple of different perspectives for each album. Each review is given a rating out of five stars by the writer. The ratings are as follows: 5 stars = pretty much perfect, 4 stars = awesome, 3 stars = average, 2 = just OK, 1 = epic fail.

Music Testing
We rely on you, the listener, to tell us what you like so we can deliver the best music possible. Our identified core artists are those that are consistently ranked highly by a survey performed each year. If a particular song tests well, it is played with more frequency. If a song tests poorly, it is removed. Your feedback as a listener is crucial to us.
At Resound, music testing is essential to our philosophy of operation. It's your station, so you should pick the music. Every month, you will have an opportunity to participate in our in-studio music test and receive a free candy bar for your help. If you are interested in being a part of our online music testing group which will launch later this semester, email our Music Director and let us know!
