Horse Soldier! Horse Soldier!»rank: 1367par: Corb Lund
Chroniques et points de vue:Amazon.ca:0ver the course of Cord Lund's decade-long solo career, he has remained the perennial cowboy, bringing with him a torch, a twang, and a penchant for penning lyrics about riding ranges and rustlin' steer. While Lund's previous incarnation--frontman for indie/punk outfit The Smalls--was more political in nature, he has avoided the topic in his solo work, until 2007's Horse Soldier! Horse Soldier! Rather than tackle present-day war stories, however, Lund has chosen to detail historical battle tales ... |

Graduation»rank: 983par: Kanye West
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Kanye West's third in a whimsical trilogy of 'scholarly' albums, Graduation wears its predecessors' badges of success on its sleeve. Matriculation has its rewards, apparently, and it's time to take stock. Lyrically, there's plenty of self-congratulation to attend to, but the real fun comes in the collabs, and West chooses co-conspirators like a kid in a candy store--John Legend ('Good Life'), Coldplay's Chris Martin ('Homecoming'), Mos Def and the Section Quartet (both adorable choices for the ... |

I M Your Man»rank: 7048par: Leonard Cohen
Chroniques et points de vue:Amazon.ca Canadian Essential:Cohen hits his mid-career peak on l'm Your Man. Though still dark, there are touches of black humour and irony throughout and Cohen's voice was never a deeply rich. -- S. Duda Amazon.ca:Even the production, laden with synthesized strings and cooing female choruses, is wry on l'm Your Man, a definitive Leonard Cohen album. Though still touched with the tragic ('Take This Waltz,' based on a Garcia Lorca poem), the album often achieves its high ... |

Oh My Darling»rank: 526par: Basia Bulat
Chroniques et points de vue:From :'Timeless' is an overused word, but when listening to London, 0ntario, singer Basia Bulat's debut CD, 0h My Darling, her voice, choice of musical styles, and orchestral propensities come from another generation, evoking comparisons to '60s and '70s musicians like Nico and Maddy Prior. Combining a warmth and sadness perhaps best described as caramelancholy, Bulat's music is part traditional folk ('December'), part symphonic ('Little Waltz'), part samba ('Why Can't lt Be Mine') and--if you can imagine--alternative ... |

Mezzanine»rank: 6485par: Massive Attack
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:By the release of 1998's Mezzanine, critics were suddenly of the understanding that Massive Attack were one of the most important bands in the world. Bristol's original trip-hop pioneers had, on previous albums Blue Lines and Protection, fused turntable wizardry to the warmest of soul. With Mezzanine, however, the party had ended; revisiting the murky soundscapes so favoured by former partner and fellow Bristolian Tricky, the comeback single 'Rising Son' muttering edgily about 'cheap beer filled ... |
