Spiderland»rank: 10713par: Slint
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Although this Kentucky combo had a short lifespan, its influence has been extraordinary, presaging the underground 'math-rock' revolution and spawning spinoffs such as Tortoise and Gastr Del Sol. But don't go thinking that the foursome is a mere footnote: The bracingly dense, dizzyingly complex songs that vein this, their second full-length release, perfectly capture the smarter face of early-'90s thug-rock. Yes, Slint's sound is descended from punk, but its members--particularly guitarist Brian McMahan--never subscribed to ... |

Velvet Underground»rank: 4619par: The Velvet Underground
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:Released in 1969 to an almost total lack of critical acclaim or consumer interest, the Velvet Underground's third album may well be the finest record of the band's career. Without the sonic terrorism of The Velvet Underground & Nico and White Light/White Heat or the ill-conceived commercial concessions that marred Loaded, the album's songs are free to stand on their own merit. And stand they do: 'What Goes 0n' and 'Beginning to See the Light' ... |

Dirty»rank: 7324par: Sonic Youth
Chroniques et points de vue:From :A must-buy for any teen or twentysomething who considers themselves the least bit cool. With Kim Gordon and Thurston Moore swopping leads, it's a beautifully paced disc exploding with beatific beats, white-noise assaults and great, grungy pop ('Sugar Kane,' 'Chapel Hill'). --Jeff Bateman Chronique amazon.fr:Mieux vaut ne pas croire les rumeurs selon lesquelles la jeunesse sonique, croulant sous le poids d'une paternité revendiquée par les trublions grunge, aurait décidé avec Dirty (1992) de s'engouffrer dans ... |

One Day I Ll Be On Time»rank: 26469par: The Album Leaf
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Anyone who's been blindfolded and left to navigate a space by touch rather than sight will already have at least a passing familiarity with the work of the Album Leaf, solo project of über-instrumentalist Jimmy Lavalle. With the Album Leaf, Lavalle moves from the punk rock of his earlier bands, Swing Kids and the Locust, to the post-rock purveyed by his other current band, Tristeza. Using the typical tools of his kinder, gentler trade--tasteful percussion, ... |

Slow Riot For New Zero Kanada»rank: 16008par: Godspeed You Black Emperor!
Chroniques et points de vue:Amazon.ca Canadian Essential:This nine-piece Montreal collective sketches large-scale sonic landscapes using everything from strings to samples. Exceedingly plush and atmospheric, Slow Riot funnels a dramatic undercurrent through their music, adding an undeniably cinematic quality--especially in a section featuring the paranoid rants of a street person. The result is a grand and swirling mélange with a sweeping scope and an elevating sense of tension. -- S. Duda From :Slow Riot for New Zero Kanada may last only ... |

Broken Social Scene»rank: 5212par: 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 ... |

How We Operate»rank: 15120par: Gomez
Chroniques et points de vue:From :There's always been something a little mysterious about Gomez. Yet no one would mistake them for a dream-pop or shoegazer act. The UK quintet relies too much on acoustic instrumentation (violin, mandolin, harmonica, etc.) and rocks too hard to qualify. ln fact, they've never been part of any 'scene,' British or otherwise. Their debut for Dave Matthews's AT0 label, after live set 0ut West, isn't an about-face and it's unlikely fans will feel betrayed by ... |

Goodbye Enemy Airship The Land»rank: 7882par: Do Make Say Think
Chroniques et points de vue:Amazon.ca Canadian Essential:Moody, cathartic and cinematic are just a few words used by critics who were sent scrambling to their thesaurus upon the release of this album. Combining elements of jazz, ambient, and progressive rock, Do Make Say Think were quickly identified as part of Canada's highly-touted 'post-rock' scene. Goodbye Enemy Airship, a whirling, everything-and-the-kitchen-sink ride stamped both the band and the movement as worthy of attention. -- S. Duda |
