If you have enjoyed the alt rock scene during the last 25 years, then for sure you should know about Alain Johannes work. The guy is all over the places, with his own band (Eleven), his solo project or his thousands of appearances (QOTSA, PJ Harvey, Chris Cornell and a long long list of etc).
After seven years of “silence” (at least as a solo artist), He finally came back with an extraordinary, honest and beautiful record. Probably the best word to define this album is ... read more

Jarvis was not even close to be the great performer He is today. The instrumentation is pretty basic and even predictable and the lyrics are on the same field, but “It” is from 1983!!! I mean the same year almost everything was sounding like crap. No super catchy synth sections, no electric drums, no happy chorus.
This guys were so far from what they finally became, but they had a totally disconnected identity, and they were sounding “Brit” a decade before it was cool ... read more

I do not know, maybe it is me, but huge passages of this album sounds like the type of music you can hear in a fancy/hipster restaurant as background music.
They are an amazing set of musicians, but this exercise was so pointless. I mean, it sounds like they have a couple of good ideas (Sleepless Nights is quite good) and they decided to fill the whole thing with whatever they already had in their "work in progress" personal folders. And after that, someone said "Hey! we need ... read more

I am here just because of the hype!
Hahaha not really, but I must admit I was curious with all the people going crazy with this album.
Lets be fair, this is a good record, very nice to listen, easy to follow, with decent instrumentation (with some very nice piano and harmonica arrangements) and with Taylor definitely showing us one of her different sides. If you go and listen "Lover" it is impossible to deny this is a big step for her and possible for her whole career, but besides ... read more

We know Dylan is about cycles and as you should expect, usually the albums that finished a cycle are not the best ones, but in the opposite corner you have the albums that opens a cycle (like this one), and that ones are usually good. Many of you can disagree with me, but I think Slow Train Coming is one of the best cycle opener records.
Yeah, you can see here some of the missteps from Street-Legal, but in general terms, most of them are certainly smaller and subtle, actually sounds like he ... read more

You're welcome, I'm always happy to talk about things like that! For me the level of "jazz" at Dinner Party is really too light, I'm surprised
Yes! (:

Thank you very much, here is my opinion: Indeed I did not rate it because I had taken a break. What I can tell you is that I completely agree with your review on Dinner Party. With such talented artists and especially in this very complex political context, I expected to have something sophisticated and brilliant. It's an album without interest that you can listen to with one ear, without any real replay value that remains too generic, too predictable. It's still objectively correct but disappointing coming from them.. (:
