Gift-Tribute to Ian Tyson»rank: 273par: Various Artists (Collections)
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Though tribute albums are typically labors of love, few show more affection toward their subject than this. lan Tyson's career spans the folk revival of the 1960s (lan and Sylvia), the seminal country-rock of the late 1960s and early '70s (Great Speckled Bird), and an extended solo career as one of North America's foremost purveyors of cowboy and Western music. The Canadian troubadour has plainly attracted a number of friends and admirers on both sides of the ... |

Blood Mountain»rank: 10373par: Mastodon
Chroniques et points de vue: :You could have passed it off as a fluke. Remission was an awesome album, helping revitalize metal and bringing the band much deserved notice. Leviathan was a gigantic leap, perhaps the most ambitious metal album in years. But could it keep going? People were concerned--side glances were given, hand wringing began as Mastodon moved to a major. And for what? Turns out for nothing. Blood Mountain is flat-out amazing. lf anything, it is another leap forward, both experimentaly ... |

Amnesiac»rank: 2847par: Radiohead
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:Though the songs on Amnesiac were recorded at the same time as those on its predecessor, Kid A, the gap between the releases of the pair suggests a determination on Radiohead's part that the two should not be perceived as halves of the same whole. However, there is little in the way of meaningful stylistic divergence between the two albums--Amnesiac shares with Kid A an atmosphere of defeated, vengeful paranoia, a heavy reliance on electronic noises and ... |

Black Celebration»rank: 3016par: Depeche Mode
Chroniques et points de vue: essential recording:Depeche Mode's most foreboding album, leaning toward the gothic, is DM at their most bleak, black-armband, and nihilistic--no doubt played over and over by countless self-loathing teens as they dyed their hair black behind locked bedroom doors. The tracks are tastefully minimalist, yet the few sounds that dominate each song have a consuming, even overwhelming feel--like a big, heavy black cloud that descends upon and surrounds listeners until their knees buckle from the weight. Rhythmically, songs ... |

Funeral»rank: 1324par: Arcade Fire
Chroniques et points de vue:From :'Wake Up,' a track from the debut full-length by Montreal's Arcade Fire, builds from a midtempo strum into a 'You Can't Hurry Love' gallop, which singer Win Butler interrupts with a yell: 'You better look out below!' Somehow, none of this hits the ear as overemotional. Throughout Funeral, the band augments its five-piece lineup with string sections, weaving near-cinematic, folk-influenced chamber pop that slots in somewhere between Belle and Sebastian's delicacy and the robust classicism of '80s ... |

No Name Face»rank: 2333par: Lifehouse
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:No Name Face is an auspicious debut from Lifehouse, a band seemingly made to rule the airwaves. The insinuating melodies that mark their radio-friendly sound are not unlike those of Matchbox Twenty in their softer moments. From the first single 'Hanging by a Moment' to the emotive and up lifting 'Quasimodo' and the wonderful 'Trying' (think Crowded House at their lilting best), Lifehouse are self-possessed and focused. Young singer-songwriter Jason Wade (the son of two ministers) imbues ... |
