Takk...»rank: 156par: Sigur Ros
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Just when this lcelandic crew seemed stuck in loud/soft/loud/ soft rut a la Mogwai or Godspeed You Black Emperor, they release their most beguiling, subtle and beautiful album yet. This album, allegedly the group's first sung in lcelandic rather than their own made-up 'Hopelandic' (not that this listener could tell the difference) is relentlessly joyous, unaffectedly rad and inventive but never just for its own sake. Strings hold an ever more prominent place in the music, and this is a good thing. ... |

In the Future»rank: 156par: Black Mountain
Chroniques et points de vue: :With ln the Future, the Vancouver, BC-based retro-rock act Black Mountain has really worked through its influences, delivering a classic slab of new stoner/headphone rock. The band's eponymous debut treaded through the catalog of many a classic rock and folk artist's greatest hits album, picking the best bits from Deep Purple and Black Sabbath here, Mountain and Thin Lizzy there, as if these kids' folks had good taste in Big Rock, but not much else. ln the Future is far less afflicted with ... |

In Your Honor»rank: 4063par: Foo Fighters
Chroniques et points de vue:From :lt's likely that a decade after its debut record this band now has fans who might ask, 'You mean Dave Grohl was in a band before the Foo Fighters?' But they, or any Foo followers who pine for the increasingly refined vocals and polished pop-punk uniformity of the first four albums, will swallow this one whole--or at least half. For as much as vocalist/bandleader Grohl and Co. mix a similar concoction on the 20-song double CD, they manage to agitate the formula ... |

1991-2003 Rearviewmirror Gre»rank: 3452par: Pearl Jam
Chroniques et points de vue:From :ln an era when pop nihilism fulfilled its dark promise all too regularly, Pearl Jam not only survived, but thrived to become one of rock's greatest bands. This 33-track double-disc career retrospective documents the arc of a career that went from arena and radio triumphs in the early 90's (while Nirvana's promise imploded in the wake of hype, Pearl Jam's crowd-pleasing fame only burgeoned) to the uncompromising, core audience-focused tack that carried the band into the 21st century. Shrewdly compiled by the ... |

Bone Machine»rank: 5249par: Tom Waits
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:The abnormal has become the norm for Tom Waits, so, once again, Bone Machine is laden with odd timbres, archaic acoustics, and raw vocals. This time, however, Waits has built his songs around a Harry Partch-inspired fascination with primitive percussion. With a crew of Northern California musicians along to add spare adornments, Waits fashions pretty, sentimental tunes ('A Little Rain', Whistle Down the Wind') and hellish stampedes of clanging metal and hoarse shouting ('Earth Died Screaming', 'Let Me Get Up on lt', ... |

Core»rank: 4580par: Stone Temple Pilots
Chroniques et points de vue:From : Though lambasted in some quarters as cynical clones of the then-vaunted 'Seattle sound' (in particular, Alice in Chains and Pearl Jam) STP's 1993 debut nonetheless found a considerable following for its potent crunch and sly hooks. While some tracks do seem to ape the era's grunge ethos a bit too slavishly, there's also a sense that perhaps Weiland and company were merely sharing some of the same influences as their contemporaries--and on standouts like the riff-savvy 'Sex Type Thing' and the ... |
