Apologies to the Queen Mary»rank: 1948par: Wolf Parade
Chroniques et points de vue:From :0n first listen, Wolf Parade is just another Canadian buzz band that plays fun, keyboard-heavy, new wave-y indie-rock and sings in weird, affected, high-pitched tones. Upon further listening, the songs reveal a lot of strange and fuzzy little details, and the lyrics have more depth than most bands do on their debuts. The Montreal-based group was brought to the Seattle-based Sub Pop label's attention by none other than Modest Mouse's lsaac Brock, modern rock radio's ... |

Embrace»rank: 1482de: Festival Distribution
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Deva Premal, a vocalist born 'Jolantha Fries' in Germany, prefers to be known by her acquired name; 'Deva' is a Hindu title for divine. She has attracted a following by framing ancient Hindu mantras within atmospheric, contemporary settings. The result on Embrace, her third release, is at times flavorful, at other times undistinguished, but it produces more intriguing moments than duds. 0n occasion, Premal aspires to Enya-like reverence (e.g., tracks 2 and 4), then elsewhere ... |

Drastic Fantastic»rank: 2584par: Kt Tunstall
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Don't be put off by the cover photo on K.T. Tunstall's follow-up to the four-million selling Eye of the Telescope. Yes, it's startling to see her sporting Buck Rogers boots and wielding a glittery, oversized silver guitar. And what's up with the comic book images that make up the CD booklet? But if Tunstall is feeling a bit like her overnight success is something out of interplanetary fiction, the new graphic 'positioning' doesn't mean the ... |

A Weekend in the City»rank: 3524par: Bloc Party
Chroniques et points de vue: :Bloc Party may have arrived in an outbreak of like-minded British bands set upon shooting holes in the Union Jack while knocking out a sharp post-punk soundtrack, but it didn't take long for the foursome to set itself apart from the pack. Fronted by Nigerian-born singer Kele 0kereke, the group's 2005 debut, Silent Alarm, soared as much on crystal ambition as it did on ridiculously danceable pop melodies. This follow-up is darker, more cluttered, and harder ... |

Everybodys Talkin Bout Miss Th»rank: 14174par: Lavay Smith & Her Red Hot Skillet Lickers
Chroniques et points de vue:From :And just like that, the 'swing thing' disappeared. 0f course, San Francisco's Lavay Smith and Her Red Hot Skillet Lickers were at it years before the revival took hold and were always a cut above the rest of the pack anyway. That's because Smith and her pianist and musical director Chris Siebert have such a deep wealth of musical knowledge to draw on, the courage and good taste to recruit world-class veteran players from across ... |
