3 Doors Down:The Better Life»rank: 5271par: 3 Doors Down
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:The Mississippi-based quartet 3 Doors Down has only one thing that sets them apart from other hard rock bands: lead vocalist Brad Arnold is also the drummer. The group shops the sounds of Pearl Jam and the Goo Goo Dolls, pointing at what they like, picking it off the shelf and throwing it into the stew. While the music on The Better Life, their debut, sounds overall both competent and confident, the songs themselves are ... |

Robot Hive/Exodus»rank: 16736par: Clutch
Chroniques et points de vue: : Clutch continues its seemingly endless string of awesome albums with the flawless Robot Hive/Exodus. 0pening with deep-fried 'The lncomparable Mr. Flannery' and closing with a Tom Waits-esqe cover of Howlin' Wolf's 'Who's Been Talking?,' Robot clearly demonstrates, once again, Clutch's remarkable musical diversity. Clutch's solid, trademark grooves have as much in common with Gov't Mule as they do with Black Sabbath and Grand Funk Railroad, and their ability to ooze instant classics such as the ... |

Significant Other»rank: 8647par: Limp Bizkit
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:Florida-bred metal-rappers Limp Bizkit sold a million-plus records of their debut largely on the strength of a George Michael cover song. But the band indeed had 'Faith' and the group's second outing proves that the Bizkit have the goods. Still, it seems as if boastful front-man Fred Durst is loading the band's deck again, this time by including scads of guest vocalists, such as Stone Temple Pilots' singer Scott Weiland, Method Man from Wu-Tang Clan, ... |

When the Angels Make Contact»rank: 10496par: Matt Mays
Chroniques et points de vue:Amazon.ca:Matt Mays's third CD, When the Angels Make Contact is a decidedly different journey than his previous efforts, a largely hushed, even-keeled effort that floats from track to track. The disc is a Mays solo undertaking (temporarily separating from his El Torpedo bandmates) and as a result, the music is a little less Crazy Horse and considerably more sonically experimental than his fans might expect. Angels is a soundtrack to the singer's own unreleased film--its dirgy, ... |

F#A#»rank: 4070par: Godspeed You Black Emperor!
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:lt's hard to imagine this disc coming out of Montreal or, really, any urban habitat. The post-rock instrumentals on f#a#(infinity symbol), distantly related to the sounds made by the Australian band Dirty Three, serve as walking music for a loner hoping to hitch a ride in the middle of the Arizona desert and dealing with the inevitability of another night in coyote territory. Godspeed's swelling array of guitars, bagpipes, cellos, violins, trumpets, and drums is ... |

Renegades»rank: 7501par: Rage Against the Machine
Chroniques et points de vue:From :lf Renegades proves to be the last Rage Against the Machine album to feature singer Zack de la Rocha, who quit the band after nine years, it's a cool way to go out. Produced by Rick Rubin, Renegades is a salute to the artists who made Rage what they are--or were. While it's easy to hear Rage's rap roots in songs from Afrika Bambaataa, EPMD, and Volume 10, it's more interesting to see their take ... |

Rabbit Fur Coat»rank: 637par: Jenny Lewis
Chroniques et points de vue: :Channeling the evocative storytelling of Laura Nyro and the soulful sexiness of Dusty Springfield, singer/songwriter Jenny Lewis skips all contemporary studio gimmickry to proffer a near-perfect solo debut. The front-woman for indie darlings Rilo Kiley breaks away from the songwriting democracy she shares with that band's co-leader Blake Sennett (also of the Elected), drawing inspiration from the crackling vinyl albums of her youth. And from the opening notes of 'Run Devil Run,' an acapella gospel hymn ... |
