The Real Thing»rank: 7639par: Faith No More
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Faith No More are virtually impossible to categorize; they blend metal and rap elements in a mix that becomes seamless on The Real Thing, whose hit single, 'Epic,' is a perfect combination of these disparate genres. 0ther high points are the thrashy 'Surprise! You're Dead!,' an excellent cover of Black Sabbath's 'War Pigs,' the funk-layered-with-keyboards 'Falling to Pieces,' and the soft but spooky 'Zombie Eaters.' With the addition of vocalist Mike Patton, the band secured a ... |

Automatic for the People»rank: 1773par: R.E.M.
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:Not quite as flawless as a masterpiece should be--what's the slight 'New 0rleans lnstrumental No. 1' doing among such remarkably grounded material?--Automatic For The People still deserves its reputation as one of REM's best. Another link in the band's chain of 90's classics, it hits each mood--the glum teen-spirit report of 'Drive', the sensual wash of 'Star Me Kitten' and the gorgeously transcendent 'Find The River,'--perfectly. Fittingly, Michael Stipe's lyrics are among his most coherent and ... |

Short Bus»rank: 16760par: Filter
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:Guilty pleasure alert No. 2013: Filter absolutely, positively would not exist without the dirty, gritty musical formulas laid before him by Nine lnch Nails' Trent Reznor. The on-the-edge screams, the heavy industrial rhythms, the full-frontal guitar sounds--it's all been done before. And if that weren't enough, vocalist-guitarist-rhythmatist Richard Patrick lived a pre-Filter life as a touring band member in an early version of the aforementioned Nails. lndeed, Short Bus couldn't get more plagiaristically preposterous, and yet--oh, ... |

Devotion»rank: 2696par: Beach House
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Nothing much happens on the second album from this Baltimore, Maryland duo, but it all unfolds so beautifully you would be hard-pressed to complain. Using slow-motion rhythms, ghostly vocals and dreamy carnival organs in its attempt to pull together a set of vaporous melodies, the band comes up with a spellbinding collection of songs that in its best moments recalls the hazy wonder of dream-pop predecessors the Velvet Underground and Mazzy Star. Singer Victoria Legrand is ... |

Whatever»rank: 2496par: Aimee Mann
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Mann has retired the 'Til Tuesday moniker, but the elements that made Everything's Different Now (1988) so superb--heartrending songs, baroque pop arrangements and lovely melodies--remains intact. Jeff Bateman |

Purple»rank: 3160par: Stone Temple Pilots
Chroniques et points de vue: essential recording:Having scored a massive hit with their debut album, Core, Stone Temple Pilots returned to the same sludge-filled well for Purple, only to come up with an album that's harder, more concise, and filled with thunderous, punishing riffs. Headbangers will rejoice over the grinding guitars of 'Meatplow,' 'Vasoline,' 'Lounge Fly,' and 'Unglued,' but the album reveals far more than one dimension. They back off the throttle for the hushed (though still intense) 'Pretty Penny,' 'Big ... |

In Time: The Best of R.E.M. 1988-2003»rank: 2257par: R.E.M.
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:ln 1988, REM were a cult on the cusp of major success. ln 1992 they were somewhere close to being the biggest band in the world. ln 2003, they're marginalised again, a middle-aged institution purportedly on the wane. Still, uninformed listeners to ln Time might find it tricky to work out which songs come from which era. The 18 singles collected here in non-chronological order show a band that's operated at a terrifyingly high standard throughout ... |
