Return To The Sea (Digi)»rank: 9763par: Islands
Chroniques et points de vue: :'l woke up thirsty on an island in the sea,' went the last line in the last track on the last album by beloved indie rock pranksters, The Unicorns. At least two members took those words to heart, as frontman Nick Diamonds and drummer J'aime Tambeur return as lslands, a Montreal duo that reigns in some of its former band's more obnoxious qualities in favor of more manicured melodies and purposeful arrangements. 0h, who are ... |

Crystal Days (1979-1999)»rank: 33003par: Echo & the Bunnymen
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Though a much-ballyhooed phenomenon that influenced modern bands as diverse as Pavement, Hole, and Flaming Lips, Liverpool's Echo & the Bunnymen tellingly had their biggest American successes ('Lips Like Sugar' and a cover of the Doors' 'People Are Strange') just as they were beginning to come apart at the seams. With frontman lan McCulloch wailing his impressionistic/expressionistic lyrics (occasionally so obtuse it was hard to tell which adjective applied) over Will Sergeant's fevered, jaggedly ... |

Soft Bulletin, the»rank: 10540par: the Flaming Lips
Chroniques et points de vue: essential recording:The Flaming Lips' particular and peculiar genius comes to full fruition on the stupendous The Soft Bulletin. Anyone who had the gumption to actually listen to Zaireeka, a song cycle that could only be heard by playing four CDs at the exact same time on different stereos, knows that head Lip Wayne Coyne and his 0klahoma City brethren had it in them. That album, along with the Lips' Parking Lot Experiments, offered proof ... |

A Boy Named Goo»rank: 19797par: the Goo Goo Dolls
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Having undergone numerous not-so-subtle musical transformations since their first album in 1989, the Goo Goo Dolls have matured into a powerful trio that seems to instinctively know its way around a catchy tune. With vocalist Johnny's Paul Westerberg-influenced delivery and songs packed with exciting dynamics, the Goo Goo Dolls have really hit their stride. However, the stride they've hit is probably not going to appeal to most fans from their punk rock years, and ... |

Dosage»rank: 6662par: Collective Soul
Chroniques et points de vue:From :At heart a safe if emotive and catchy middle-of-the-road rock band, Collective Soul up the prescription on Dosage, turning in an 11-song collection that stretches previous aural boundaries with mixed results. The Southern-bred quintet is literary in its lyrical leanings and thoughtful in its deft and dynamic pop-rock songcraft. Programming and keyboards are now part of the group's arsenal. Dosage's production, meanwhile, is handled by singer-guitarist Ed Roland and is exceedingly lively and crisp. ... |

Come Clean»rank: 12319par: Puddle of Mudd
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:Possessing a likable, arena-rock amalgamation of grunge, alternative and nu-metal, Come C lean, the debut album from Puddle of Mudd, shows a band who are at once emotional and straight-ahead. lndeed, their no-frills line-up puts one in mind of a less uptight Creed. Singer Wesley Reid Scantlin possesses an Eddie Vedder earnestness that on hard-hitting tunes like 'Nobody Told Me' takes on a Cobain-like urgency. Ranging from acoustic-based yet lush midtempo rockers such as ... |

Collective Soul»rank: 7158par: Collective Soul
Chroniques et points de vue:From :After the surprising success of 'Shine' from his debut effort, Collective Soul honcho Ed Roland told anyone who'd listen how the track was a demo that wasn't even recorded by his 'real' band. This self-titled release is the first thing recorded by Collective Soul as a group, and guess what? The sub-Allman Brothers country boogie and ultra-derivative classic-rock riffing proves that 'Shine' was a fluke and Roland certainly isn't the best judge of his ... |
