The wind enters the bay, awaiting figures while time is frozen, there are signs of change in the thicket, the earth cracks and fears dissipate, will be a new beginning, another form of vision.
I have to say the first thing that popped into my head while listening 'Written on the Forehead' , the advancement of 'Let England shake', PJ Harvey's new album was: "is trying to recycle and do not know how," with that stuff noventero half ethereal world music emanates. Big mistake: first, because one of my 'guilty pleasures' is noventera world music compilation CD from Amazon with a waterfall on the cover and a man with a stick piercing his nose on the back. Second, because 'Let England Shake' is a work that keeps all the consistency and quality that we have come this artist born in 1969 in the English town of Yeovil, Somerset. Needless to saying that at the end of the song had a smile from ear to ear and now thinking: What an aunt, has done it again. "
While in the 90 forged a sound instantly recognizable thanks to albums like 'Dry' (1992), 'Rid of Me' (1993) or 'To Bring You My Love' (1995), here also include the most E 'Is This Desire? " (1998), which is usually not as well received and it takes in, but it contains several moments for me summit of his career in the past decade sought to broaden their horizons with a 'Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea ' (2000) that was more than an evolution, almost completely abandoning the harshness of its beginnings and which, perhaps not convinced by the road to take, he returned on his next album, the stunning 'Uh Huh Her' (2003). But it would follow 'White Chalk' (2007), much more intimate and in which the piano had the privilege of being the main instrument at the expense of the roaring electric guitar that had accompanied him so far. This shift could be seen at the Summercase of that year when, dressed as a bride, Hung Gibson Les Paul with whom he had played 'Oh My Lover' and sat down to play piano his new songs.
Despite not seem at all like 'White Chalk', much darker, 'Let England Shake' follows the path of rupture with which some fans end to pull the little hair they had. There has been no change of partners: still has Mick Harvey John Parish and Flood in the instruments of production. However, wild guitars are long gone, now clean and almost atmospheric sound, with the "autoharp" as a new travel partner and player in 'The Words That Maketh Murder' , another advances with video disk (the singer said he would do one for each song). Perhaps air world music 'Written in the Forehead' not predominant, but it hovers over a certain sound MINUTES ethereal. However, there is a peaceful drive, the same PJ says he wanted to get that sound with some confusion, and tension is evident in songs like 'Let England Shake' or 'The Glorious Land' , with a bugle calling the troops like a Western movie in question. And this is the most political album of Polly Jean Harvey, tired of introspection, looks outside and charge against first-world imperialism, with its own country, England, at the point focus. But the most radical, of course, is in her voice that sounds no longer the limit, with the heart coming out of the throat, but more mature and confident.
All this may seem the classic fan PJ Harvey all a betrayal of their principles, but do not worry because songs like "Bitter Branches ', ' On Battleship Hill ' and especially' The Last Living Rose ' (which begins with an enlightening "Europeans Goddam!" ) could be included easily into any canon of the artist album. Perhaps they are right to say 'Let England Shake' is below 'Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea', but if you delve into it will more satisfied than they think.

Well again by Tracks Captured scouts, which is giving us a good time this label brooklioniana by having obtained a complete catalog form great bands you see, the Catalan Aias, Minks, Nothing Wild , Beach Fossils, The Soft Moon or Veronica Falls and now we come to the radiant debut this Californian duo Justin Ballesteros and Frankie Seattle Soto. This duo brings us a stroke in another of these regressions sound that seduce us so much, it seems that the grain of the eighties have not been exhausted. Pop music with a major touch of nostalgia for that decade, weave a lot of musical styles of yesterday and today, the formula is simple but very effective, their sound is driven by the voice of Justin lazy with the support of those guitars and retro for those synthesizers decorated celestial rhythms turn loop, creating a priceless dream landscapes, we could say that your music goes halfway between gothic, post punk, synthpop of the 80s, pop and 90's shoegaze and dream pop of this new century. Listening to this "off work" otherwise appropriate title for this era we live in, said that listening to this record come to mind many images, I felt one of those flashbacks feels like one in the waiting room of a hospital waiting to see for the first time the face of his new son, super 8 images in slow motion of a lifetime is happening in my head one after another memory brought me to The Cure The Field Mice, Another Sunny Day or New Order at the incredible theme "After The Moment" a piece that recalls the most hedonistic and Balearic dance rhythms that great play called "Technique" in "Your Tomb" see a very clear nod to Wild Nothing, if I say it's a matter of Jack Tatum would believe me at face value. Right now they are touring with the Beach Fossils and Cloud Nothings. On Tuesday March 29 went on sale via Captured Tracks if you are interested in having a copy on vinyl or CD $ 12 $ 10.

good change that gave Hercules and Love Affair face to their second album, "Blue Songs" (Moshi Moshi Records). After success with their eponymous debut under the label DFA Records, where they put the beats of Electro and Disco held between the efficacy of the issues, they decide to change to houseros terrain in its continuation on a first listen to lose the hook above associated with the group.
Efficiency they had singles as 'Blind' or 'You Belong' , both taken at the time of the disc to promote it, this is not seen unless we like the Chicago House Deep 80, under which ' My House ', presentation theme of this album, it does perform that task.
In "Blue Songs" calls attention to how it changes production to a more electronic and fall again as creative partner Tim Goldsworthy in this work along with Andy Butler, the real mind behind this group and who takes them aside or another (Cut Copy also has fallen and they have been better disc.) In Once the influential DFA member joins Patrick Pulsinger. Pulsinger is an Austrian producer born in 1970 who published under the auspices of R & S Records or Mo 'Wax and has his own label, the recommended Cheap.
When I fall into electronics I mean aside Pop the hook and into the early sounds of House that have fiddled with the Soul willingly and had great black female singers with generous jets raised any base , however weak it was. Here "Answers Come In Dreams' same thing happens. Air Negrot is brutal in his role and the foundation with some funky hose no longer something that could have been better.
is in that union with black divas where Hercules And Love Affair it right. Antony Hegarty was fine to receive the promo and all the praise in the world but in this second installment win the whole vocal. Shaun Wright J is the second female that is heard in two of the best songs: 'My House' and 'Falling' more Disco House. Unfortunately he plays the title role in the worst track on the disc, horrible 'Boy Blue' . This issue is a section that breaks the dynamics of the album, a pop song with an air space at the base tranceras mixed with an ornamentation of winds that squeaks and a straight final between economic effects and increase the happy beats tranceras which is best forgotten. 'It's Alright ' comes at the farewell and do not hurt as much because it exercises end and could be understood as a landing above. Best
we were a less cheerful and danceable disc. With 'Step Up' Kele Okereke where he works (Bloc Party), which is not up to the previous voices, and the medium is gas, although the issue promises better results. They also give good results at the touch of noventero 'Painted Eyes' with a generous addition of strings, and 'I Can not Wait' style pimping it would have been better in the voices of the previous black divas in the register of Kim Ann Foxman. The same goes for 'Leonora' that remains in no man's land.
"Blue Songs" is not a bad album. Nor is the ultimate. It would have been a better EP has several issues that raise the rest of a nice way, but in many cases, when they achieve the best results, it seems that the shadow is cast Inner City duo that once already popped with 'Big Fun '. Still, I value positively those singles loose from the worst issues.

A 4 years since that cathartic "All Of A Sudden I Miss Everyone "(temporary, 2007) returns the legend of Austin, Explosions In The Sky one of the last refuges of the amazing escapism Essential Post Rock, contention in the land disturbing abstract shot of a heavenly musicianship, powerful and away from any recipe simplistic, the 4 boys from Texas are now on a path enhanced, and not just the Product seesaw in "Take Care ..." the fifth plate is rolling tides, eddies indecipherable and depth of sound that leaves almost no air, displayed in a fascinating search.
pefect have found a way to reappear with the simple "Trembling Hands" not remember another instrumental song so rampant, so terribly lively to make up the face and smile, if 2011 is the year of return to ancient glories style as Mogwai, Eleventh Dream Day and The Sea And Cake, we believe that ultimately all Explosions In The Sky will be considerably later, for consistency, charisma and daring.
ever talked about a band that gave 'Direct' always hanging on the edge, about to roll to places unknown, flashes, flying on a platform guitars, noise, shaking and eyes lost in trance atmosphere.
Explosions in the sky with only 6 songs on "Take Care, Take Care, Take Care" give new life to the sound adventurous, a mist that spreads by creeping infinite channels sensitive contemplation. Beyond the horizon we see dim lights terminals.
A source for diving, a magnificent record.

Six Organs of Admittance is a project that began in the mid-nineties as very informal, their first albums were homemade recordings, over time has become one of the most respected folk passages. The mind behind Six Organs of Admittance is the guitarist Ben Chasny, who is partner and member of several other bands like Comets On Fire, Current 93, Devendra Banhart or Sunn O))). Also in this same year debut with his new project called "200 Years" by Elisa Ambrogio of Magik Markers band of noise. Already
I lost track of that number would play a "Asleep on the Floodplain" in his discography, including many easy to get lost, but certainly has more than 25 records as Six Organs of Admittance. All these works have explored the same style, suddenly moves between psychedelia, drone, rock, avant-folk, Americana, freak-folk ... always with significant levels of experimentation and very intimate trends, we may speak of a comprehensive study possibilities of the acoustic guitar.
"Asleep on the Floodplain" is an album that attempts to return to the origins of the project when they had responsibilities and so making music very informal, in the words of Ben Chasny: "I went back to making music at home, without the pressures of time you require in the studies." 10 Songs
intense as usual we represent a challenge, a sound puzzle to be solved, dense long instrumental passages, some lengthy topics 12:26, \u200b\u200bcombined with small and tender guitar solos just a minute. A range of intensities that must be heard. No wonder
Devendra Banhart once said: "Ben Chasny is the garden. I'm just a snail that eats lettuce in it. "

again fall into the abyss abrasive Australian duo Naked On The Vague, Matthew Hopkins and Lucy Cliché are masters of the dark, suffocating noise at times hard to track such debris from steep, but over time they are opening the way to collaboration, tapes and home recordings, now we have the EP "Dark Twelve Noons ", 6 courts make it clear that we are going for more punk dark, always loaded as a dagger classic garments evil imaginary tear Gothic, sort of devastated Banshees in the chaos of Mars or DNA, loud, resounding no package left without a shudder, testing for them has always been tied to the shadows, low spectral and clanking of ritualistic drums, vocals coming from the anger raised in distress, something we are so special, a recurring fetish Eskimo People.
