Dead Meadow - Old Growth (2008)



Muzykę Dead Meadow początkowo klasyfikowano jako coś, co może pogodzić miłośników klasycznego psychodelicznego rocka spod znaku Pink Floyd, fanów gitarowych riffów Black Sabbath oraz zwolenników stonerskich transów, wychowanych na Kyuss. Dziś już nie całkiem to się sprawdza, bo od czasu ukazania się „Feathers" nastąpiło wyraźne przesunięcie się w stronę bardziej „tradycyjnych" gitarowych brzmień bluesowych, zresztą wyśmienicie wyegzekwowanych („Ain't Got Nothing [To Go Wrong]", „Between Me And The Ground", „The Great Deceiver"), no i chyba w ogóle w stronę bardziej zrelaksowanego mainstreamowego rockowego grania, charakterystycznego dla tradycji Zachodniego Wybrzeża. Na „Old Growth" jest jednak większe zróżnicowanie stylistyczne: zaznacza się tu także wpływ folk-rocka („Down Here", „Either Way"), może jakieś echo Marka Lanegana („What Needs Must Be"), nie zabrakło również małego wypadu w stronę hinduskich klimatów („Seven Seers"), a jeśli chodzi o budowanie majestatycznych hymnowych brzmień, to po wysłuchaniu „Till Kingdom Come" tacy wykonawcy jak choćby U2 powinni pomyśleć o emeryturze.

Tracklist:

01 - ain't got nothing to go wrong
02 - between me and the ground
03 - what needs must be
04 - down here
05 - 'till kingdom come
06 - i'm gone
07 - seven seers
08 - the great deceiver
09 - the queen of all returns

Benoît Pioulard - Précis (2006)


Tracklist:

1. La Guerre de Sept Ans
2. Together & Down
3. Ext. Leslie Park
4. Triggering Back
5. Moth Wings
6. Alan & Dawn
7. Corpus Chant
8. Palimend
9. Coup de Foudre
10. Hirondelle
11. Needle & Thread
12. R Coloring
13. Sous la Plage
14. Patter
15. Ash Into the Sky


Précis to jego pierwszym wydany oficjalnie album. Wcześniej sam produkował swoje nagrania, do obiegu w kręgu przyjaciół i rodziny, nawet nie wiem czy można to jakoś zdobyć. Tak więc, udało mu się zdobyć kontrakt z wytwórnią, i na tym krążku zawarł swoją dotychczasową twórczość.
Meluch tym się różni od wspomnianych wcześniej Tillmana i Silbermana, że nie oszczędza w formie. Dźwięków jest dużo, a instrumentarium nie ogranicza się do jednej, akustycznej gitary. Budowane, nakładające się na siebie szarpnięcia gitar, elektroniki czy innych niezidentyfikowanych narzędzi tworzy wrażenie małych ścian dźwięków. Songwriter operujący shoegaze'owymi wynalzkami? A to ci dopiero! Wychodzi mu to bardzo dobrze, jest bogato, magicznie i ciekawie. Dodajmy do tego interesujący wokal, troche szepczący, czasami mało wyraźny, wręcz rozmyty... ślicznie. To jest wręcz songwriting eksperymentalny! Melodie wyrwane z kontekstu, niebanalne, przedstawiające nieznane nam do tej pory muzyczne pejzaże - aż dziw, że ten album ominął większość podsumowań roku 2006. Jedna z mocniejszych pozycji (lepsze określnie - ładniejszych).

Benoît Pioulard - Temper (2008)




Benoît Pioulard to projekt młodego Amerykanina, pod nazwą BP kryje się Thomas Meluch z Michigan. Zafascynowany dźwiękami natury od lat tworzy muzykę z pogranicza ambientu i dream popu, jednak podczas słuchania jego muzyki to drugie pojęcie nabiera nowego znaczenia. Pracuje sam, na albumach jedyną osobą, którą słyszymy jest Thomas, swoją twórczość wydaje głównie za pośrednictwem własnej strony internetowej, wytwórni Kranky lub sklepów internetowych, w inny sposób ciężko znaleźć jego płyty. Na koncie ma on wiele nagrań, z tego oficjalnie ukazały się zaledwie dwie płyty długogrające:
Précis [2006] oraz Temper [2008]. Jego muzyka jest taka jaka powinna być muzyka piękna, ma w sobie coś delikatnego, łagodnego, a przy tym wpadające w ucho melodie, od których nie można się długo uwolnić. Dźwięki jakie nam prezentuje Thomas są niezwykłe, magiczne rzec by można, te wszystkie szumy i inne efekty, jakby oddalony wokal, daje to atmosferę rzadko spotykaną u innych twórców.

Tracklist:

1. Ragged Tint
2. Ahn
3. Sweep Generator
4. Golden Grin
5. The Loom Pedal

Les Fragments De La Nuit - Musique Du Crépuscule (2008)

"Musique du Crépuscule" is a vision of night wrapped in mystery: a night haunted by spectral chants, under the spell of epic, poignant strings and sustained by hypnotic piano pulsations. Its nocturnal universe oozes with hybrid ink, enveloping hidden emotions tainted with melancholy and voluptuousness. A neo-classical or post-nocturnal piece, "Musique du Crépuscule" has many different faces. It alternates between violin riffs, dark cello projections and the complaints of a lone piano, highlighted by enigmatic echoing voices.


Tracklist:

01. Eveil Des Fées
02. Assault
03. La Ronde Des Fées
04. Entre Ciel Et Fer

Sylvan - Posthumous Silence (2006)




With their fifth studio CD ‘POSTHUMOUS SILENCE’ the German art-rock band SYLVAN announces their return and presents at the same time their eagerly awaited first concept album. A complex plot and over 70 minutes of beautiful, touching music is a guarantee for an unforgettable, emotional experience.

Again SYLVAN is able to fascinate the audience with multilayered sound designs, catchy melodies, emotionally intense atmospheres or hard bits, all coupled with complex thematic motifs. The captivating guitar riffs perfectly blend with wonderful melodies, spherical and psychedelic parts, all combined to a whole by the recognizable voice of Marco Glühmann and several instrumental passages.

POSTHUMOUS SILENCE is not only the proof, that SYLVAN is up to the challenge of a concept album, but rather that they are capable of enriching the genre with their own signature and the spirit of today. POSTHUMOUS SILENCE is a real masterpiece of progressive rock!
________________________________________________________

Wokalista z tytułem doktora fizyki, otoczony czwórką znakomitych muzyków. Tak w telegraficznym skrócie przedstawić można niemiecki zespół Sylvan. Swym ostatnim albumem „Posthumous Silence” podbił on serca rzeszy słuchaczy.
Historia zespołu rozpoczęła się w 1991 roku, w Hamburgu. Wtedy to trójka szkolnych kolegów: klawiszowiec Volker Söhl, gitarzysta Kay Söhl oraz perkusita Matthias Harder postanowiła założyć własną grupę rockową. Jej pierwsza nazwa to: Chamäleon. Wkrótce dołaczył (ale tylko na krótko) do nich wokalista i basista w jednej osobie: Marko Heisig. W 1995 roku jego miejsce zajął Marco Glühmann i właśnie wtedy zespół przyjął obecną nazwę. Słowo Sylvan pochodzi od „Sylvanus” - nazwy boga lasów.

Tracklist:

1. Eternity Ends
2. Bequest of Tears
3. In Chains
4. Bitter Symphony
5. Pane of Truth

De La Mancha - Atlas (2008) *****



After the excellent ‘Release All Light EP’, De La Mancha arrive with a full-length offering, delivering on that early promise with an album that combines a Sigur Ros-like sense of scale with humbler, shoegazing songwriting values. ‘Release All Light’ still shines brightly from the album’s tracklist, sounding great on an epic scale, but there’s a lot more to Atlas than that: perhaps due to the presence of Dag Rosenqvist (aka Jasper TX) on electronics and guitar, for every moment of tuneful Euro-indie like ‘Lotus Seven’, there’s a more subtle, soundscaped piece like the ambient brass tones of ‘And Rainy Days’, or the introspective, echoing piano chords of ‘Sleep’. If all this sounds suspiciously like some sort of by-the-book post-rock exercise and your tolerance for such things has reached saturation point, fear not: this isn’t really that sort of record at all… despite the presence of gratuitously long, irritating titles like ‘So Let’s Blow Up Our Heads And Leave’, ‘Atlas’ is proof that De La Mancha have an impressively diverse repertoire, comfortably blending musical disciplines, and handling their instruments with a real expertise. Furthermore, the album is all filtered through a great production job from Rosenqvist, who keeps the hour-long duration ticking over with a real sense of dynamism and narrative progression. Lovely.

Instead, they took their name from the 1954 CIA-backed coup d’etat in Guatemala. There, the CIA disabled Guatemalan communication systems while spreading propaganda, leading to the overthrow of the government.

Slint - Spiderland (1991)





Indie rock certainly has a few albums that people may consider our 'Sgt. Pepper's', and this is without a doubt one of them. Recorded by Brian Paulson (not Steve Albini as some may think) and released by four dudes from Kentucky, this 1991 album is essential. It is extremely heavy, emotional, technical and musical at the same time. Elements of math rock, emo and new metal spawned from this low profile Touch and Go release.

The production of the album is notable because of the simplistic use of just drums, bass, guitar and voice. There's no extra cheese, no keyboards and no studio tricks. The album only has six songs total but it is a true full-length epic.

The oddly creepy album cover was taken by fellow Kentucky citizen, Will Oldham. This type of mysterious imagery combined with spooky lyrics enhanced the overall feeling that this album was other-worldly. It is a true timeless release that sounds great today. If you have never heard this album as a whole, get it, turn down the lights and turn it up.

With six sprawling tracks of post-doom psych-rock, where the tension-building guitars mainly buffer the atmospheric vocals, Wyllt -- produced by Scott Reeder of Kyuss and Unida -- is both calming ("Origin of Savagery") and ominous ("Torment of the Metals"), and usually both within the same song ("Bird of All Faiths and None/ Bell From Madrone").

The Mars Volta - Octahedron (2009) *****





Octahedron is the stunning new album from The Mars Volta. An album heady with the emotion and high-drama that has always been the band's trademark, their newfound simplicity and focus has delivered some of the most immediate and powerful songs in their discography. The album opens with the tender ache of "Since We've Been Wrong", Cedric's keening vocal establishing a mood that's deeply blue, powerfully melancholic, a suckerpunch that hits every bit as hard as Octahedron's unashamed rockers (the gleaming futuristic funk of "Teflon", the tense chase-music of "Cotopaxi"). Pulling back from the full-tilt experimentation of previous releases, the album invests its energies in Omar's gift for songcraft, for swooning guitar runs of high tension and emotive power ("Luciforms"' epic riffage), and for the nagging hooks and melodies that wreath the churning rhythms of "Desperate Graves"

Klimt 1918 - Just In Case We'll Never Meet Again (2008)



For those new to the band, the name itself is derived from an artist named Gustave Klimt and the year of his death. As for the new album, the official name of the album is Just In Case We'll Never Meet Again (Soundtrack for the Cassette Generation) and it is eleven tracks of alternative-influenced music that can be compared to newer Anathema and Katatonia. As with those bands, the emphasis is on lush melodies and they come in spades here. The production values are good, which allow them to shine through on the album. Vocalist Marco Soellner adds some emotion to the music, something that takes the album from merely average to a surprisingly enjoyable listen. Obviously, this music is not for everyone, especially those who have soured on Anathema and Katatonia post-2000. If nothing else, Klimt 1918 is an interesting experience, especially on Just In Case We'll Never Meet Again.

Klimt 1918, like most bands of their genre, are one of those bands that can be difficult to understand, with some profound lyrics and sound. Just listening to the albums can be a chore unto itself. With Just In Case We'll Never Meet Again, that road to understanding takes even more twists and turns. While it isn't for everyone, those who seek something different will find some reward with the new album from Klimt 1918.

Tracklist:

1. The Breathtaking Days (Via Lactea)
2. Skygazer
3. Ghost of a tape listener
4. The gradudate
5. Just an interlude in your life

Iowa Super Soccer - Lullabies To Keep Your Eyes Closed (2008)



ISS are Natalia Baranowska (vocals), Michal Skrzydlo (acoustic guitar and vocals), Marcin Fluder (guitar), Slawek Plotek (percussion) and Blazej Nowicki (bass). Since 2004, they’ve put up a band that brought a sound not common to Poland’s musical scene. We’re talking about pop music and alt-country; melancholic, acoustic and slow.
On their new EP, they’ve lost their innocence and this can be seen on the track The River. The indie catchy pop tunes, mellow and sung so delicately have been adulterated. They’ve been plugged to the current and injected high doses of electricity and percussion into their music.

Tracklist:

1. One day in the grass... 4:12
2. She 5:00
3. The River 2:57
4. Screaming 4:45

Maudlin of the Well – Part The Second (2009)

Experimental, orchestral, ambient, progressive rock and metal music. It is like and avant jazz something. It is quite strange and interesting at the same time. A great album from a great band. The tracks are actually new releases, but some parts of them are ideas and inspirations from the older records, that never been in them. These are not b sides; these are great tracks, and new recordings at all. Dark atmosphere, theatrical view, cinematic orchestra style, experimentalisms, and great compositions.

Tracklist:

1. An Excerpt From 6,000,000,000,000 Miles Before the First, or, The Revisitation of the Blue Ghost (10:55)

Gifts From Enola - From Fanthoms (2009)




Gifts From Enola is a band from Virginia that juxtapose elements of post-rock with a large hard-rock mindset and then allow an experimental bent to soften the edges. Structurally, some songs explode out of the gates with blistering intensity and then recede slowly back into the sonic landscape with a timid disposition. Other times the band waits for the dynamic breakdown and sets the scene up with calm waves of ambience and scant field recordings.

Tracklist:

1 Benthos
2 Weightless Frame
3 Weightless Thought
4 Trieste
5 Resurface
6 Melted Wings
7 Thawed Horizon
8 Aves

We Made God - As We Sleep (2008) *****



We Made God are the latest Icelandic band to step up to the mark and their debut album delivers soaring, epic, driving rock of the highest calibre.

The fourpiece are early 20-something’s Maggi (vocals, guitars), Arnór (guitars), Stuni (bass) and Biggi (drums). From the gentle introspection to brutal noise of album opener Gizmo to the pyschedlic riffing of the Deftones-esque “Bathwater” and the gentle floating guitars of “The Color”, “As We Sleep” was entirely produced by We Made God and shows a band at the height of their powers.

Tracklist:

1 Gizmo 4:55
2 Bathwater 4:51
3 Sub Rosa 3:22
4 Deir Yassin 4:26
5 Theory Of Progress 5:41
6 The Color 16:21

George Dorn Screams - O'Malley's Bar (2009) *****



''Their music is magic, they use female vocals, and their music is slow, alternative, noisy and at the same time atmospheric and melancholic. There is an energy inside the moody atmosphere, there is an intension behind the melody of Magda Powalisz‘s voice. The band from Poland brings together alternative metal sounds and shoegaze chords. In July 2008 the band recorded the new material to be published on their second album in Elmwood Studio, Dallas, Texas. The recording was produced by John Congleton, (Explosions In The Sky, The Polyphonic Spree, Logh, The Appleseed Cast, The Roots, Pleasant Groove, Modest Mouse).There is a great harmony from the beginning till the end of the album. Note and tunes lie down and fulfill our hearts with beautiful sentiments, they can full my eyes with senses and my mind with desire to think and feel. I try to feel, and this is a great achievement for a band these days, they can make you feel. Don’t drop them like something bad, they need your attention. It is fully atmospheric, slow but noisy indie rock music. Excellent album, a modern rock tear. Fantastic guitars, ost dreams and excellent structure.''

Myślę, że Polska naprawdę nie ma się czego wstydzić, powstają kapele, które wiedzą czego chcą, potrafią stworzyć świetny klimat i prezentować po prostu bardzo dobrą muzykę. Płyta pozostała w klimatach senno-marzycielskich, niemniej jednak jest ostrzej i bardziej dojrzale.

Tracklist:

01. "Circles"
02. "Cul-De-Sac"
03. "Waterproof"
04. "Summers, Springs And Winters"
05. "Hangover Tune"
06. "Over"
