Broken Social Scene»rank: 6458par: Broken Social Scene
Chroniques et points de vue: :Bands that draw musicians from other well-known acts are called supergroups. Broken Social Scene is a supercollective. Ranging from 5 to 17 members, the Toronto-based outfit includes musicians from Stars, Metric, and many other bands, as well as the up-and-coming Leslie Feist. Frontmen Kevin Drew (formerly of Do Make Say Think) and Brendan Canning (By Divine Right, Len) founded BSS in 1999 and their mission has stayed constant: take a deep love of indie rock and expand on that by making experimental ... |

Yield»rank: 7752par: Pearl Jam
Chroniques et points de vue:From :The Seattle band once notable for its arena rock anthems is now remarkable mostly for its hushed melodies. 0n Pearl Jam's fifth album, the rockers seem slapdash ('Do the Evolution', 'Brain of J'), and the arty experiments sound self-conscious (especially the 67-second knockoff, '-'). That leaves the ballads, especially the lovely lilt of 'Low Light' and the clear-eyed lament of 'Wishlist.' 0n the latter song, Ed Vedder (as he now calls himself) yearns to be many different things, from a neutron ... |

Mad Season»rank: 5872par: Mad Season
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Alice in Chains vocalist Layne Staley teams with Seattle pals Mike McCready (Pearl Jam) and Barrett Martin (Screaming Trees) in the tradition of other part-time grunge aggregations like Brad and Hater. These 10 numbers--mostly somber, acoustic-hued ballads like the single 'River of Deceit'--are a therapeutic soul-cleansing for the troubled Staley. Core fans of any of the aforementioned bands will rank this with the solo work of Screaming Tree frontman Mark Lanegan (a guest vocalist here). --Jeff Bateman |

Horses»rank: 6843par: Patti Smith
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:0n her 1975 debut, Smith was full of piss and vinegar, seriously interested in bringing together high art and low three-chord rock & roll. As a result, her free-form poetry meshes with covers of 'Gloria' and 'Land of a Thousand Dances', and the album centres on two long, highfalutin' pieces, including the three-part suite (warning! warning! art!) 'Land'. (The CD version appends a messy live take on The Who's 'My Generation'.) Led by Richard Sohl's piano, the arrangements don't exactly rock, ... |

Incesticide»rank: 6555par: Nirvana
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:And so, in the fiscally dark years between Nevermind and the much-delayed ln Utero, Geffen Records cobbled together a pile of Nirvana b-sides and out-takes, and were so glad they had something to bleed the hungry grunge-hordes dry with that they allowed Cobain to give it the poisonous title lncesticide. As cash-ins go, it's one of the more essential ones: obviously there simply aren't that many Kurt Cobain songs in existence, and the inclusion of the incredibly rare single 'Sliver' and ... |

Ultimate Collection»rank: 2385par: Kinks
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:How Ray Davies made it through is anyone's guess. He fought constantly with his brother and bandmate Dave. He received not a penny of royalties throughout the Kinks' late-1960s heyday, due to a management dispute. He endured two divorces--the first of which saw him hospitalised in a suspected suicide attempt--and a painful break-up with Chrissie Hynde. Under terrible stress, he announced his retirement every six months from 1967 onwards. Yet somehow he held together one of the 60s' most stylish outfits, ... |
