These last couple of days:
Julina Julien - Terre I Cool ethnic multi-instrumental fusion with a wide range of sonorities Soundgarden - SuperUnknown Grunge / stoner Wooden Baby Very nice and original mixture of pysch/space rock and electronics with 80's goth rock / cold wave. Recommended to all Ozrics, 80's Hawkwind and strange psych music fans. Some Wooden Baby samples on youtube: Bathory - The Return... An underrated and somehow overlooked album, but one of his darkest opus, marking the true birth of modern black metal sound Edited by Modrigue - February 20 2017 at 03:41 |

I haven't. I need to check it out, as the "Ashra-like" adjective sounds delicious. |

The Scorpions - "In Trance": Nice guitar tone, and it generally rocks, but the air of self-reflecting melancholy is all over this thing, especially lyrically. I always thought the cover was hilarious raunch, but now I'm wondering if something else is going on here. "Without your guitar, you're just another nobody waiting to die. I might as well just make love to your guitar."
Some revisits from my youth: Dokken - "Tooth and Nail": I like the title track and "Turn on the Action". Gotta say, for naming the band after the singer, he's fairly average in the grand scheme of things. George Lynch's guitar solos are cool though. Lynch would have been a better band name too. Ratt - "Out of the Cellar": Haven't heard this in decades due to ditching hair metal for the thrashier stuff, but now I'm older and this nostalgia trip was a good ride! I actually enjoy this quite a bit, and "She Wants Money" is a total riot. Love it! Dio - "The Last in Line": Improved production over the debut, and the title track remains my fav Dio song. Kinda top heavy, with the first four numbers being great headbangers, but "One Night in the City" kinda bogs things down. So tired of rock songs about 'Johnny'. There must be hundreds of them. |

Classical music isn't dead, it's more alive than it's ever been. It's just not on MTV.

Last two afternoons:
Ashra – Blackouts Earth and Fire – s/t Franco Falsini – Cold Nose Tangerine Dream – Underwater Sunlight Rush – Moving Pictures Rush – A Farewell to Kings Alpha Wave Movement – Earthen Steve Roach – Painting in the Dark Steve Roach – Arc of Passion Deuter - Aum Gong – Gazeuse! Can – Future Days Can – Landed Neu! – 2 - meh, pretty throwaway album without actually being bad as such...just eclipsed by pretty much every other Krautrock album out there! Deuter – Celebration – It’s really lovely, Sam, has a frequently cool hippie/acid folk flavour to it, and although it’s often gentle, it’s still nowhere near being `New Age’, and there’s one particular stunning longer experimental Krautrock–styled electronic/acoustic piece on the first side. Will post the review tomorrow. |

Not really too sure yet what to make of `Landed', Sam. I just picked it up the other day unexpectedly, gave it a spin today and found it wildly inconsistent. Some of it seems alarmingly straight, parts of the poppier elements are a bit mundane, and the most interesting `Unfinished' track arrives a little too late at the very end of the album. Still, I'm on a second spin and finding very cool stuff popping up here and there, so will stick to it. Anyone here a massive fan of it?

I liked `Landed' a little better today on my second listen, Sam, but there's still large stretches where it's quite forgettable. I kind of felt like I could have sent the time listening to better albums from then.
That's a nice RPI album that Gruppo 2001 one too...I've always argued that the first track sets a pretty high standard that a lot of the rest of the album doesn't quite capture, but there's still some pretty good other stuff on it. Not one of the essentials, but certainly one of the appreciated! |

FEM - Sulla Bolla di Sapone (I'm trying to imagine how they'll sound in their next album, with a new vocalist. It's one of the reasons why I love this album.) Sounds of New Soma - Moebius Tunnel

I've got that Gruppo 2001 album on a nice reissued Mini LP CD set, Sam, the vintage Italian discs always look great as those. It comes with a bonus single at the end of the disc that was quite charming too.
Oh no, has the vocalist left F.E.M? Where did you read that? Definitely one of the standout things about the second disc.... Man, that will make three vocalists in as many albums! |
