Remain in Light»rank: 6196par: Talking Heads
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:Way back in 1980, the original wave of Talking Heads fans were pleasantly stunned to hear Remain in Light, produced and co-written by Brian Eno, on which Byrne and company are joined by guitar god Adrian Belew, and funk legends Bernie Worrell (keyboards) and Steven Scales (percussion), among others, for a fuller, funkier sound nobody imagined they had in them. The first three songs are long, layered, full-body dance parties, with incessantly repeated phrases ... |

Elliot Smith»rank: 12881par: Elliot Smith
Chroniques et points de vue: essential recording:Recorded mildly better than his debut (Roman Candle on Cavity Search), the self-titled second solo album is one of the most understated and incredible albums to emerge from the indie-rock scene in the 1990s. With his nimble picking fingers behind him, Smith writes sad, little songs about drugs and romantic codependence that border on the obsessed. 'Needle in the Hay' and 'The White Lady Loves You More' are exemplary tunes that fuse the ... |

Speaking in Tongues»rank: 5817par: Talking Heads
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:0bserve as David Byrne finally learns to dance. Non-Western sounds and funky rhythms had infected Talking Heads' music prior to this 1983 pop breakthrough, but Speaking in Tongues is where the beat truly gels. The band's quirky, nerdy persona somehow blends easily with music borrowed from the African Diaspora on 'Stop Making Sense' and 'Burning Down the House'. The album also marks one of the last true band collaborations, before Byrne reduced his partners ... |

Yellow House»rank: 232par: Grizzly Bear
Chroniques et points de vue:From : lt's a rare thing to find a band that counts the glockenspiel, autoharp, banjo, and flute as key instruments, especially when it's a rock band with just four members. Grizzly Bear use all the above instruments plus another dozen or so to make the 10 floating, gossamer, low-lit tunes that comprise Yellow House. They are rounded edges, off-kilter waltzes ('Lullabye,' which teeters tipsily), laconic vignettes, and even a vintage 1930s waltz written by ... |

Bedlam In Goliath»rank: 1488par: The Mars Volta
Chroniques et points de vue: :No one has ever accused the Mars Volta of subtlety. But even so, the cyclonic caterwaul of Bedlam in Goliath is the band's fullest starburst to date. Sure, the songs have titles that seem indecipherable, from “Aberinkula” to “Conjugal Burns.” The important thing, though, is the molten, guitar-spiraling, drum-thundering core at the heart of the whole endeavor. “Aberinkula” opens the album with an unfettered explosion of clustered guitars and a dense keyboard haze pierced by ... |

Fear of a Blank Planet»rank: 3367par: Porcupine Tree
Chroniques et points de vue:From :0n Fear of a Blank Planet veteran progressive-rock act Porcupine Tree takes up the task of exploring the alienating forces of the media and its impact on our youths and ourselves. Fear's titular cut features lyrics rife with allusions to the confusing, isolating effects of TV, the X-Box, drugged out consumer escapades, and the ennui that arrives with prescription and self-prescribed numbness. 'My Ashes' advances the themes of isolation, as a young person becomes ... |

Purple Rain»rank: 8564par: Prince
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:Maybe this music by Prince & the Revolution will never quite sound as, well, revolutionary as it did in 1984 (and nothing else has ever sounded like the extraordinary cooing and fluttering of 'When Doves Cry'), but it's a pop landmark in Prince's Artistic career. The hit movie was really just a big-screen showcase for Prince to perform these songs (some of them in tear-the-roof-off 'live' versions set in a Minneapolis club). lt's unclear ... |
