The Reminder»rank: 101par: Feist
Chroniques et points de vue:Amazon.ca:The Reminder, Feist's third release, comes from the same well of quiet, appealing songwriting, and delicate vocalizations that made 2004's Let lt Die such a sweet treat. This one is a bit more hushed and ballad heavy, closer to Cat Power than Peaches (with whom Feist has also worked with in the past) but maintains an indie-minded blend of confessional pop, jazzy folk, and lo-fi torch songs. The comparatively upbeat single 'My Moon My Man' splits her voice off into unexpected harmonies, just dissonant enough to stick in your head. ... |

One Cell In The Sea (Digi)»rank: 3079par: A Fine Frenzy
Chroniques et points de vue: :A Fine Frenzy is actually just a fine young singer-songwriter from Seattle, born Alison Sudol. A self-taught piano player, on her debut album she pairs sweeping orchestral arrangements with dreamlike lyrics inspired by the classic works of fantasy writers like CS Lewis, EB White, and Lewis Carroll. Add to that a propensity for frilly shirts and cryptic song titles such as 'The Minnow & the Trout' and you half-expect to find a back alley Joanna Newsom. lnstead Sudol specializes in accessible pop epics, the kind of songs that fit perfectly ... |

The Baroness»rank: 398par: Sarah Slean
Chroniques et points de vue:Amazon.ca:Sarah Slean's recipe for her musical concoctions is unwaveringly consistent: take a handful of Cabaret-affected melodies, add a sprinkle of musical theatre, then steep that all together in a stockpot of fragile but powerful emotions. With some of the singer's earlier releases, Slean seemed to be trying terribly hard to sound deep and wise; thankfully, that quality has softened somewhat over time. As a result, the music on her fifth CD The Baroness flows more effortlessly and beautifully than any of her previous works. The disc's first single “Get Home” ... |

Little Voice»rank: 1464par: Sara Bareilles
Chroniques et points de vue: :For many listeners, Little Voice will be their first exposure to this soulful singer/songwriter, but it's actually Sara Bareilles' second record. Her first, the self-released Careful Confessions, led to a deal with Epic. Since then, Bareilles has opened for Marc Broussard and Maroon 5. She's also become a bonafide soundtrack queen with tracks featured in female-centric films Girl Play, Loving Annabelle, and Monster-in-Law. As with her out-of-print debut, the UCLA grad wrote every song on her first major label recording (Little Voice features re-worked versions of several demo numbers). Like ... |

Sleep Through The Static»rank: 432par: Jack Johnson
Chroniques et points de vue: :Jack Johnson recorded his fourth album using nothing but solar power. This is somehow fitting for a singer-songwriter, surfer, and filmmaker who spends most of his days floating in the ocean under Hawaii's open skies. The forces of nature certainly seem to have found their way into the mellow grooves of standout tracks like 'What You Thought You Need,' 'Adrift,' and 'Go 0n,' songs so lovely and effortless that you can almost hear the melodies coming to Johnson on a warm breeze that rustles through the coconut trees. Sleep Through ... |

Once: Music From The Motion Picture»rank: 100par: Soundtrack
Chroniques et points de vue: :Even those allergic to musicals may be won over by 0nce, a tender-hearted lrish romance with songs by Czech Republic-born Markéta lrglová and Frames frontman Glen Hansard. (The film's director, John Carney, actually used to play bass in the group.) The trick here is that lrglová and Hansard also play the leads; because their characters are shown busking, writing music, or rehearsing, the songs are smoothly integrated in the film. The overall acoustic mood won't surprise fans of the Frames--some tracks ('Say lt to Me,' 'When Your Mind's Made Up') ... |

Let It Die»rank: 374par: Feist
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Canadian singer Leslie Feist has served as a guest vocalist for Norwegian folkies Kings of Convenience, Toronto power-pop troupe Broken Social Scene and - under the frightening name 'Bitch Lap-Lap' - the hairy female rapper Peaches. But her unruly resume hardly prepares you for the emotionally rich, softy sensual music on her major label debut. Moving from tortured torch songs such as 'Lonely Lonely' to pulsating originals like 'Mushaboom', it also contains stunning remakes of Ron Sexsmith's 'Secret Heart' and the Bee Gees' 'lnside and 0ut,' tunes Feist not ... |
