Yell Fire!»rank: 5237par: Michael Franti
Chroniques et points de vue: :0ne thing you know you'll get from Franti and Spearhead is a certain kind of crystal clarity--on the production, musicianship, and, of course, in the righteous political message. Released two years after Franti traveled by himself to war-ravaged Baghdad, Gaza Strip, and the West Bank, each of these songs deals with the human cost of war poignantly and pointedly. The lyrics may seem simplistic when removed from the songs--'Those who start wars never fight them/And those ... |

Nevermind»rank: 651par: Nirvana
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:0ne of the defining moments of the 1990s, despite happening at the start of the decade. The guitars start jittering, then 'B00MA-AB00MA-AB00MA-AB00M!', the drums kick in and grunge splatters itself all over a generation of MTV viewers. 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' will surely always speak to alienated teenagers, while giving them something to thrash around their rooms to, kicking the whole thing off as it means to go on. 'Come As You Are' is dark ... |

Release The Stars»rank: 4587par: Rufus Wainwright
Chroniques et points de vue: :Recorded in Berlin and executive produced by the Pet Shop Boys' Neil Tennant, Rufus Wainwright's fifth album offers an ounce of restraint from the man that dressed up as Sir Lancelot's crossed girlfriend Lady Shallott on the cover of his last. Well, not really. Having fallen in love and curbed his self-destructive streak, the New York-born singer-songwriter has certainly sharpened his wit on Release the Stars but the songs remain as ornate and over-the-top as ever, ... |

Plans»rank: 632par: Death Cab for Cutie
Chroniques et points de vue: :When an indie-rock band as intimately and fiercely loved as Death Cab for Cutie makes the inevitable major label jump, it often telegraphs a painful death. Witness Husker Du, the Replacements, Nirvana--hell, even R.E.M. After a successful four-album run on tiny Seattle imprint Barsuk, however, Death Cab for Cutie just might buck the trend on its Atlantic premiere. Yes, you can grumble about the production (a little too slick), the proportion of ballads (a little too ... |

Mer De Noms»rank: 6459par: A Perfect Circle
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:Somewhere inside every alternative metal band lurks a platinum-selling stadium rock act looking for a way out; Perfect Circle appear intended to be Tool front man Maynard James Keenan's ticket to the big time. While Tool's uncompromising take on industrial goth metal have taken them so far, Keenan clearly dreams of bigger things: there are moments on Mer De Noms, notably 'Rose', that are in meaningful danger of being confused with Jethro Tull and others, ... |

Mutter»rank: 1435par: Rammstein
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:Formed in Germany in 1994, this industrial rock six-piece gained notoriety when they were found to be fave raves of the Columbine High School killers. Mutter is the studio follow-up to 1998s platinum-selling Sehnsucht, and a very menacing beast it is too. Vocalist Till Lindermann delivers growling German lyrics over a melange of explosive guitar, pared-down bass and juddering drums. But these 11 tracks are not all nu-metal stomp rock, as every so often the ... |
