The 90

Ten days without a ticket when I made good resolutions (mental). Yet I listened to more music than ever during this period. For a dance party I threw myself into a colossal work of musical archeology, looking for lost 90s nuggets. What better way indeed set the mood for an evening of playing the card of nostalgia? Easy course, but so effective. Anyway I'm never the last to take the easy way. Guarantee a certain quality of listening the day, evening and I am putasse gladly swapped my last 45 laps of the Scout Niblett for the new Rihanna, my full of Elliott Smith for the best-of Justin Timberlake. Because Vengaboys will ever move the masses uninformed that he should know iLiKETRAiNS carefully select the playlist of his party, whose music is only part of success among others.

In view of this little boom so I scoured the various download platforms more or less lawful and tracklists compilations muddy "seen on TV" in search of these tubes, so I focused on the 90s . Hearing real torture at times, I came to the conclusion that there were three categories of popular hits retro: the titles that have made a card and still remain true small bombs (admittedly dated, but not wrinkled), the success so bad you can laugh now resorts, and bulk of the mass that is doomed to disappear in the collective unconscious, having scored people either one way or the other. As it would be unfortunate if I keep it to myself and my guests, I naturally decided to share it with the world. So here are my top 5 of the two categories most interesting:

Vietnamese George Orwell - Animal Farm


According wikipedia [en he was a socialist state. Work was completed in 1945, at which time the West did not have complete information about this state, as the Soviet Union, and ideology are Socialist in the most prosperous period may reveal weak my bad.

Dominique A Black Desire

I listen to some "French song" lately. Not that I dislike, there was a time, or Black Desire, Fersen, Miossec, Arno and others Daniel Helin heartbeat of my days. But then, Bertrand Cantat just coming out of prison so he will have to wait until a new Black Desire, Fersen now revels in silly songs about her dog ("Zaza"), Miossec become sober simply cram his texts and photographs of common places ( "melancholy"), I did not dare listen to the new album of Arno has never confirmed the return to form what was "Charles Ernest" and Daniel Helin bothers me a little. Do not pour out the "new French song" which none are able to hold my attention long ago ... and this is not the new kids like Adrienne Pauly with their style "bad girl" well calculated which I will dive again. But I believe that, as in all genres, just search a bit further than what Michel Drucker and Pascal Negro regurgitate the French average prime time to find wonders. I await your suggestions, I have not the courage of clearing himself.

Still, in this fog of mediocrity, a man continues to push his way out of the spotlight away from the hype of Paris, suddenly album oscillating between good and superb live performances and an intensity rarely equaled . Dominique A lot these days his first live album, "Our driving force, recorded over four days French's tour for the "Horizon". With 15 tracks, the album traces the entire career of Dominique A, not focusing on any particular period, such an assessment stage of his work. Securities that do not believe me on the Horizon as "The Changing" are now among the most beautiful songs on the album. "Everything will be as before" and "Bowling" seem even more dark and disturbing. Even the older titles like "The courage of birds" (15 years ago) have not aged a bit and come here in electrified versions and rhythmic. You can always lament the absence of some great songs from A to Dominica selection (no "Men between them", "In Secret", "How do some living," I could go on) but the choice of songs remains consistent, balanced, leaving room for the strongest texts, the atmosphere heavy. Similarly, those who prefer lighter songs in his repertoire ("While the children play," "The Wind", "Twenty Two Bar", "In a truck", etc..) Will be disappointed. A second CD more cheerful because he is capable, would not have been able to refuse to explore the full range of live M. A. But I nitpick.

Until the new album from Daniel Darc ...

Bertrand Cantat was released today. Good news. It will not publish songs alluding to the crime for which he was convicted. Second good news. I do not unbosom myself on the case, everything has already been said. Still, Black Desire has still not found a successor in the French rock scene.

Until then, a souvenir of Black Desire, at the top of their art, won in 2002 to music (mp3 and take away, for those like me who find that this version is far superior to the original).

I know that everyone did for Radiohead today. Either. If you want your mind ...

Remember the first time you've listened to "Relationship of Command" by At The Drive-In. If arrived at the fifth track, "Invalid Litter Department," you like me loved the rantings of Cedric Bixler on a discrete electrical background you may love this collaboration between Adam Gnade and Youthmovies. If you love the songs as spoken by Xiu Xiu "Support Our Troops" you may love it too. If you've always hated At The Drive-In and Xiu Xiu you 'll probably love it because this EP is truly resembles neither.

The five tracks of "Honey Slides" are the fruit of a kind of mad poet, Adam Gnade (which has already released an album, a few EPs and collaborations that difficult to find), and a group, Youthmovies ( Soundtrack Strategies Youthmovies formerly with two albums under their belt by that name) zigzagging between a rock and rhythmic dance and experimental electronic. While one recites his texts, in the line of writers like Hubert Selby Jr beat Hunter S Thompson or other build vaults sound borrowing elements from both! (See title track "Honey Slides") than Johnny Greenwood and his famous "machine to make funny noises that operates by plugging and unplugging cables" (like how even when one wants to escape Radiohead ...). The result of such mixtures is however extremely consistent. The group immediately wins first title with a catchy and then seems to take the listener by the hand and lead him progressively familiar environments to unfamiliar territory, gradually clearing the way before him, presenting the difficulties one by one to it n 'In any case finally over. Away from frontal attacks found in Xiu Xiu Youthmovies and Adam Gnade help the listener to tame their world over the pieces. A great success.

Old Friends (pt 2): The Good Life Strange Death Of Liberal

What is the probability that a severe Jesuit school in Omaha, Nebraska smoldering simultaneously which will become two of the best folk artists of their generation? What is the probability that they are more best friends? That is what happened to Tim Kasher and Conor Oberst. Childhood friends, one had the success that we know in Bright Eyes while the other deserves at least as much with The Good Life. Kosher released today, "Help Wanted Nights," the fourth album from this group began as a simple solo project, in the shadow of Cursive, and with time became a separate entity. Let us say right away that "Help Wanted Nights" is not his best (see "Album of the Year" released in 2005) but it is a nice surprise this autumn. Originally conceived as

the soundtrack to a screenplay of the same name, "Help Wanted Nights" has become over the design of a collection of songs inspired by the main ideas freely from the film. Difficult indeed to find a thread or reconstruct a story to listen to this album, but it wanted. Despite his creative process different from the regulars will meet The Good Life familiar territory. It contains all the ingredients that have always made the magic of their albums, starting with Tim Kasher's writing that has no equal for writing text sensitive and heartbreaking at once without ever falling into cliché the grieving lover. The love and its torments are yet in the center of each of his songs but he still manages to turn his words beautifully and simply ("You're a fool for The Wounded, I'm a Man in Need of bandages), to play on words and sounds ("You stopped Stopping by to say hello, you started" starting up Every Time I Called ") and to invent effective metaphors (" One man's bed Is Another man's resurrection). His voice slightly broken, hesitating constantly between the bass and treble, strikes a balance between his lyrics and melodies, thus escaping the emotional overload that could come from introverted stories too.

This fourth album is a pretty good success and convinced more than the last Cursive ("Happy Hollow"), in which the talent of Tim Kasher seems to be subsumed in a sea of electric guitars. The instrumentation on this disc are, instead, always sensitive to being easily forgotten behind their leader. Even if The Good Life is now a separate group can feel that all the pieces are developed and run to the acoustic guitar on which are grafted other musicians. And that is how his songs work best ... There is however likely that those are shuttling between his two projects that allow delivery of Kosher as beautiful and personal album than The Good Life.
