width=&quot;595&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My favorite album by Wilco is by far &lt;i&gt;A Ghost is Born&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I put it in more than one personal top 10 albums of the 2000s.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It was also the first album I have ever listened by Wilco.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This to say that I couldn&#39;t be more pleased to find out that &lt;i&gt;Hot Sun Cool Shroud&lt;/i&gt;, the new EP by Jeff Tweedy and company, reminds a lot of their 2004 album.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And of all the 6 songs of the mini-album, for a total of 17 minutes and 36 seconds, &quot;Annihilation&quot; is probably the closest to the sound of &lt;i&gt;A Ghost is Born&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It&#39;s probably the post-punk guitars, popping up here and there in the album.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It could be the summertime-after-dark feeling reminiscing of Tweedy&#39;s rehab and panic attacks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It might be because of the lyrics picturing a moment that we know won&#39;t last:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Life It&#39;s nothing but shadows I looked for you, far and wide Let&#39;s kiss before Just before Goodbye.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;It might well be because of the instrumental &quot;Livid&quot; and &quot;Inside the Bell Bones&quot;, recalling some of the original instrumental hooks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Or maybe it&#39;s just that it&#39;s been 20 years since the band from Chicago released the album.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Recommended for all those who loved &lt;i&gt;A Ghost&lt;/i&gt;, and those who never heard of Wilco and want to give them a chance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h4 style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;Lyrics&lt;/h4&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span

Sesame Street&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;1. In touch football there is no blocking, so to “rush” the quarterback, a player typically has to count up to a certain number (usually 3, 5, or 7) out loud, and to ensure that they are counting full seconds they say a word like “alligator” or “Mississippi” out loud in between each number.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;2. DOOM, a world-class expert in 1970s television, is also referencing a famous cartoon that ran on Sesame Street—“The Alligator King”, a comic allegory about filial piety. Notably, the Alligator King in question has seven sons, and the educational purpose of the song is to teach kids about the number “7”.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;Credit: &lt;a href=&quot;https://genius.com/Future-islands-king-of-sweden-lyrics&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Genius.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span jsname=&quot;YS01Ge&quot; style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h4 style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;FAQ&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;When did Future Islands release “King of Sweden”?&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;Future Islands released “King of Sweden” on February 16, 2022.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;Who produced “King of Sweden” by Future Islands?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;“King of Sweden” by Future Islands was produced by Steve Wright &amp;amp; Future Islands.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;Who wrote “King of Sweden” by Future Islands?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;“King of Sweden” by Future Islands was written by William Cashion, Samuel T.

&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Slowdive Star Roving&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;is a new song by Slowdive in over 22 years. It follows some sort of revival for shoegaze with bands such as My Bloody Valentine (2015), Ride and Jesus and Mary Chain (2016) releasing albums or songs or announcing tours.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Slowdive Star Roving&lt;/b&gt; picks up where they left off in 1995 with their latest Pygmalion but I still consider Souvlaki as one of the best shoegaze albums ever (and my favourite one).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To my ears, their sound is now closer to &lt;i&gt;The Pain of Being Pure at Heart&lt;/i&gt;&amp;nbsp;or the&amp;nbsp;&lt;i&gt;M83&lt;/i&gt;&amp;nbsp;of &lt;i&gt;Saturdays = Youth.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;
They sound more pop, if you like, without any negative connotation. Their lyrics still remain faithful to a certain degree of mystery. They can make you think about your first love or your current one as well as something completely different.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For what it&#39;s worth, &lt;b&gt;Slowdive Star Roving&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;topped &lt;a href=&quot;http://realtime.billboard.com/?chart=trending140&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Billboard&amp;nbsp;+ Twitter Trending 140 chart&lt;/a&gt;, which is definitely a sign there is still a solid fan base waiting for the &quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.slowdiveofficial.com/uncategorized/star-roving/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;bunch of new tracks&lt;/a&gt;&quot; they have been working on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Enjoy!&lt;br /&gt;

People who cannot make it all the way to Massachusetts can wait until July 19th, the date of the official release (while you can pre-order it here and there, for example at Rough Trade or Anti). &quot;I Might&quot; is also Wilco&#39;s first release under own label dBpm Records as well as first single of forthcoming album &lt;i&gt;Get Well Soon Everybody &lt;/i&gt;or &lt;i&gt;The Whole Love&lt;/i&gt;. At a first listen the songs shows a bit of the pop irreverence fans could find in their last album. If you really cannot wait until mid-July, have a listen to &quot;I Might&quot; and its b-side &quot;I Love My Label&quot; (sic), a cover by a song by Nick Lowe. You can find both song and cover &lt;a href=&quot;http://watchoutgeorgelucas.com/2011/06/wilco-i-might/102/&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/feeds/8444063998915637993/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/31634897/8444063998915637993?isPopup=true' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/8444063998915637993'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/8444063998915637993'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/2011/06/wilco-i-might.html' title='Wilco, I Might'/><author><name>Pasquale Mellone</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08116017618495408614</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='21' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijl6z13SvFx9bZWUGnSYAB5pZ28gA-tn7Qg10y9WnlsQ4rcGCVnF4g56fHa4tqD8AHIzbRVonc-qE6jKzZTeUWYXUGb8U2FCaFwA8sgDmUl0woqBiJVqnLdiU6GM1_Yg/s220/IMG_3135.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8BczKce4F45N4sFRMHhcQwN1bUo-j9YLahzh38Xs49X-js2sYG_0Rbx5QBXmUuLHZNhCtN14u3KeIW_pEgcsqr68kEnnWMvzqukxlEsAr_WBm5xGhXqE959VJAWPjZBglx9CE/s72-c/wilco-i-might-watch-out-george-lucas.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31634897.post-4456746211677513261</id><published>2010-12-04T11:45:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2010-12-04T11:45:16.632+01:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="belle and sebastian"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dublin"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Rough Trade"/><title type='text'>Belle and Sebastian LIVE @ Grand Canal Theatre, Dublin</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj46IFFBqMjikdV5loZIwnKZrrlAA_OMPR4sWo2pDKeu3RlCS8Yq2HTAlyQzPtgeIcyyAPNkUm-XNGWtg7VRQi1WOwoFR72kkOuf8vj5OjlIeQjL85mbZim5t6Oa69FvyqmBmEC/s1600/belle.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;158&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj46IFFBqMjikdV5loZIwnKZrrlAA_OMPR4sWo2pDKeu3RlCS8Yq2HTAlyQzPtgeIcyyAPNkUm-XNGWtg7VRQi1WOwoFR72kkOuf8vj5OjlIeQjL85mbZim5t6Oa69FvyqmBmEC/s200/belle.jpg&quot; width=&quot;200&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Just like Dublin is split into two parts by the river Liffey, the working class North Side and the middle class South Side, so it was Grand Canal Theatre for the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.belleandsebastian.com/&quot;&gt;Belle and Sebastian&lt;/a&gt; concert. The band, touring Ireland and UK after their last appearance four years ago, well reflected the mood of both audience and city with a mix of songs from both their &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.jeepster.co.uk/site/&quot;&gt;Jeepster&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.roughtraderecords.com/&quot;&gt;Rough Trade&lt;/a&gt; era. I was quite surprised to see the grat majority of the crowd singing-along and clapping hands at Stuart Murdoch&#39;s &amp;amp; C.&#39;s most recent tunes, leaving me and a few long-time fans only to move our heads to gems like &#39;Fox in the Snow&#39;. The change in their audience from intimate (=unknown) clubs to posh theatres it&#39;s well represented by the change in their music from Dear Catastrophe Waitress on. New songs like &#39;I want the world to stop&#39; or less recent ones like &#39;I&#39;m a CUckoo&#39;, they work best with big venues, great sound systems, and fancy light effects. Very few of the presents were at the gig for listening to &#39;Lord Anthony&#39; or the 2004 b-side &#39;Travellin&#39; Lights&#39;. I now (maybe!) understand why Isobel Campbell decided to leave the band at some stage. The pity is they have great songs such &#39;The boy with the arab strap&#39; and &#39;Sleep the clock around&#39;, which are well capable of pleasing both audiences. The girl sitting next to me, who danced all night long to their most recent songs, made tried start a conversation at the end of the concert. &#39;It was a great gig - she said. Yes, it was very nice - I replied, before joining to queue to the exit.&lt;br /&gt;

A name for a band, the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.guggenheimgrotto.com/&quot;&gt;Guggenheim Grotto&lt;/a&gt;, chosen because it sounded very &quot;unusual&quot;. A band based in Dublin I had never heard of before and I decided to check their &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.myspace.com/guggenheimgrotto&quot;&gt;myspace&lt;/a&gt; for an upcoming gig just to find out they are currently touring the States. In brief, they released their new album &lt;i&gt;The Universe is Laughing&lt;/i&gt; worldwide on June 15th&amp;nbsp; under &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ufomusic.com/&quot;&gt;UFO Music&lt;/a&gt;. &quot;The Universe is Laughing&quot; is also the first single from their seventh release available for free downloading on the band&#39;s website and Amazon. Lead singer Kevin May describes their music as &lt;a href=&quot;http://blog.nj.com/southjerseylife/2009/06/the_guggenheim_grotto_happy_to.html&quot;&gt;&quot;indie folk with a poppy sound&quot;&lt;/a&gt;. Noah and the Whale and the Antlers&#39; fans will be pleased with this track. As far as me, I love it. Ah, almost forgot: someone accidentally updated his blog after over a year.&lt;br /&gt;

E&#39; una scelta puramente soggettiva: non sono mai stato un fan dei Radiohead, pur riconoscendone il valore artistico che hanno apportato alla musica. Allo stesso tempo, non sono mai riuscito pienamente ad apprezzare le altre due band citate, troppo sperimentale per i miei gusti la prima, priva di slanci emotivi la seconda. Per quanto riguarda i Wilco, infine, ho già spiegato la mia preferenza per &lt;i&gt;A Ghost is Born&lt;/i&gt;.

Io gli preferisco &lt;i&gt;A Ghost is Born&lt;/i&gt;. Sebbene non ci sia molto di nuovo rispetto al predecessore, &lt;i&gt;A Ghost is Born&lt;/i&gt; si giova di una maggiore omogeneità e coesione tra i pezzi, che lo fanno diventare una specie di concept album. E&#39;, inoltre, almeno fino ad oggi, l&#39;ultimo ed allo stesso tempo il più &quot;elettrico&quot; tra gli album della band americana. Almeno questo è quello che si dice.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://version30.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/01-at-least-thats-what-you-said.mp3&quot;&gt;Download/Listen to&lt;/a&gt; - At Least That&#39;s What You Said by Wilco (thx to &lt;a href=&quot;http://version30.wordpress.com/&quot;&gt;Monkey X&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot; href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTgbDWyaI0m4U4K98EmU487m1_csjqH2vVrUUJVrDMu78uR3bONcYZeZT5Gp98nuDdpLASNx0Klv0BLYh7c041rcHNS7Y_ljzaY2fcXn1l4rmdxzq5daQmtJWkTCnUF9FWTcyF/s1600-h/s685518.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTgbDWyaI0m4U4K98EmU487m1_csjqH2vVrUUJVrDMu78uR3bONcYZeZT5Gp98nuDdpLASNx0Klv0BLYh7c041rcHNS7Y_ljzaY2fcXn1l4rmdxzq5daQmtJWkTCnUF9FWTcyF/s200/s685518.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422075924540162866&quot; style=&quot;float: left; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; cursor: pointer; width: 150px; height: 150px; &quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;9. Sunset Rubdown, Shut Up I&#39;m Dreaming&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Il progetto che più mi convince tra quelli di Spencer Krug. I &lt;b&gt;Sunset Rubdown&lt;/b&gt; devono ovviamente molto agli Wolf Parade, ma non si fermano a semplici embrioni. Tre -a volte quattro- percussioni usate contemporaneamente per ogni brano; musicisti che si scambiano gli strumenti tra una canzone e l&#39;altra; liriche ispirate ed allo stesso tempo irriverenti. Se qualcuno dice &quot;che disco!&quot;, qualcun altro dice &quot;OK&quot;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://centralvillage.blogs.com/cv/files/10_shut_up_i_am_dreaming_of_places_where_lovers_have_wings.mp3&quot;&gt;Download/Listen to&lt;/a&gt; - Shut Up, I am Dreaming by Sunset Rubdown (thx to &lt;a href=&quot;http://centralvillage.blogs.com/cv/&quot;&gt;Central Village&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; &quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRiearaj7ccFFShSikJ4AsXjVDIc4ReezsLcViLMJfZ9DvXUxLtj_pTaAahu3H-IaU_C__fSs1LXjWxcI3jqQr0yFuTpRlL9uDlpiQ7xuLLR3ktovnaWmQ3iLFZ69vU0XYWk1T/s200/andrew.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422077257143786642&quot; style=&quot;float: left; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; cursor: pointer; width: 150px; height: 150px; &quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;8. Andrew Bird &amp;amp; the Mysterious Production of Eggs&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Di tutti gli album del cantautore di Chicago, &lt;i&gt;The Mysterious Production of Eggs&lt;/i&gt; è il primo che ho ascoltato e quello che preferisco. Il pop visto con occhiali tridimensionali e colorati, tra colonne sonore in stile spaghetti western, archi e citazioni in greco e latino.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://rawkblog.net/mp3/60-41/02%20-%20Sovay.mp3&quot;&gt;Download/Listen to&lt;/a&gt; - Sovay by Andrew Bird (thx to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.rawkblog.net/&quot;&gt;RawkBlog&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; &quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBhwB7N1FqgUO__siktZIPeWNzsiz11DBnlqZkJJMRPRdEl9ey2-rUYH7Iewx0x33PTXNUACQYHu6VQrvk3I47qamoyL7oRAKs8vXrfPxa1XWNl7eeLWOwf5W99g4JsEe-AVtx/s200/fleetfoxes-150x150.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422078558617252274&quot; style=&quot;float: left; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; cursor: pointer; width: 150px; height: 150px; &quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;7. Fleet Foxes, S/T&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Album recuperato a posteriori -quello dei &lt;b&gt;Fleet Foxes&lt;/b&gt;, a nuovo anno (2009) già inoltrato. Il primo ascolto non aveva rivelato nulla di sorprendente. E&#39; infatti nella semplicità che va ricercato quel che di straordinario ha questo album. Una semplicità di suoni che è scelta stilistica mirante a sottrarre piuttosto che ad ingrossare. Ogni canzone diventa così un inno che risuona in qualche canyon laggiù, da qualche parte.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://fensepost.com/main/audio/091223-fleet_foxes-white_winter_hymnal.mp3&quot;&gt;Download/Listen to&lt;/a&gt; - White Winter Hymnal by Fleet Foxes (thx to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.fensepost.com/main/&quot;&gt;FensePost&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; &quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2htgnziEub48PZ8VQpSJLNOk_e26txwoOPoHwwM_nsiDlb8PYQiJTmiaRLNKXPbOpBtKMsGs1swZX0zYcp2G-b1GcIb-BUOIXpJoxdjpN1ohsArPOG5OW63luiusMaSnGdCTN/s200/m83.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422079719204201394&quot; style=&quot;float: left; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; cursor: pointer; width: 150px; height: 150px; &quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;6. M83, Saturdays = Youth&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ci sono dei dischi che fanno da colonna sonora alle nostre vite, sia nei momenti felici che in quelli meno belli. Questo rappresenta al meglio uno dei primi e, per ovvi motivi che qui non sto a raccontare, mi è impossibile ri-ascoltarlo -almeno per il momento. Le canzoni si appiccicano letteralmente alle pareti della stanza, rivestandole di calore e nostalgia. Tecnicamente &lt;i&gt;Dead Cities, &lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;Red&lt;/i&gt; &lt;i&gt;Seas&lt;/i&gt;... è meglio, ma &lt;i&gt;Saturdays = Youth&lt;/i&gt; è semplicemente un disco perfetto, che racchiude nel titolo un universo di sentimenti e sensazioni.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://themusic.fm/mp3/M83%20-%20We%20Own%20The%20Sky.mp3&quot;&gt;Download/Listen to&lt;/a&gt; - We Own the Sky by M83 (thx to &lt;a href=&quot;http://themusic.fm/&quot;&gt;TheMusic&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; &quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiR7278A7jtrrDnFFue4qmiGpoUIFGCmi9-aDWpsqpx2Q9coJQH62Jcad2IZRJTgeZd7_tU-_28Ie9bsfDj30iI-Ti6g6tt3wxb_DVLsJflmqTNbP_dWa2HDLOCXaHNJFArk6n0/s200/bon-iver-for-emma_jpg_150x150_crop_q85.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422081643830523410&quot; style=&quot;float: left; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; cursor: pointer; width: 150px; height: 150px; &quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;5. Bon Iver, For Emma, Forever Ago&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Di cantautori che hanno riversato con successo i loro tormenti amorosi in un album ce ne sono tanti, ma a me ne vengono in mente due: uno è Beck, l&#39;altro è Justin Vernon, in arte &lt;b&gt;Bon Iver&lt;/b&gt;. Quest&#39;ultimo ha fatto anche di più, rinchiudendosi per mesi in un cottage nel Wisconsin. Il risultato sono brani che arrivano direttamente dal cuore e parlano di tutto senza nominare niente. La sublimazione di una perdita in chiave folk.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://thetapeisnotsticky.com/uploads/2008/12/01-flume1.mp3&quot;&gt;Download/Listen to&lt;/a&gt; - Flume by Bon Iver (thx to &lt;a href=&quot;http://thetapeisnotsticky.com/&quot;&gt;The Tape Is Not Sticky&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; &quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzgmHKLthgTkaHMoUaUykpqWtkaosE4NFDfyZ3rfy1ta6_HFFzN4PAB1fsi5uqzn-hwsk9ikW7YWn564i65w4PIEWsuNtInZskfj8a_mprPMIRzSIp56GxTAeCBKUYp9vyXsHe/s200/islands.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422084350015494770&quot; style=&quot;float: left; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; cursor: pointer; width: 150px; height: 150px; &quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;4. Islands, Return to the Sea&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Giocosità pop a livelli raramente sperimentati, senza per questo perdere in immediatezza. Questo è &lt;i&gt;Return to the Sea&lt;/i&gt; degli &lt;b&gt;Islands&lt;/b&gt;. La band si scioglie dopo aver scritto il suo capolavoro, salvo riformarsi una manciata di anni dopo. Canzoni coinvolgenti come poche, senza mai prendersi sul serio.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.indiemuse.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/Disc%20a%20Day/01%20Swans%20(Life%20After%20Death).mp3&quot;&gt;Download/Listen to&lt;/a&gt; - Swans (Life After Death) by Islands (thx to &lt;a href=&quot;http://indiemuse.com/&quot;&gt;Indie Muse&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; &quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjq6D_gstAtJVdX1D9YgU3F2djynIGHaCFzXae-gXJduXH9x75tpLzxV3TlHhV8__WHB41fD35IcKnHXqruNCamA9Gyr05T8Sj33CxcrXGtc5Xskc4HLounGuhNPhDeG0IQBRLe/s200/150px-I_Am_a_Bird_Now.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422085914318863314&quot; style=&quot;float: left; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; cursor: pointer; width: 150px; height: 150px; &quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;3. Antony &amp;amp; the Johnsons, I Am a Bird Now&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Nel mondo della musica, ci sono tante richieste di aiuto custodite in una manciata di brani. Quella di &lt;b&gt;Antony&lt;/b&gt; è una delle più delicate ed allo stesso tempo strazianti. Inclassificabile, come inclassificabile è la sua voce e la sua vita, sospesa a metà tra splendore e polvere.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.scjag.com/mp3/sc/hopetheressomeone.mp3&quot;&gt;Download/Listen to&lt;/a&gt; - Hope There&#39;s Someone by Antony &amp;amp; the Johnsons (thx to &lt;a href=&quot;http://radio-c.blogspot.com/&quot;&gt;Radio-C&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; &quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhksyZI5z6P7-QNDHYFvZveBFfhXdrzUAsBVukmaHvMcdT27knMKBZxfJwkS7zjEOQy6VQlLZz3L9Ht9gu5R703IwosewZS58u9oms8BAAxmmKxhnC4cOBQhh9_YOTqW_t36qNQ/s200/14438sufjan_stevens_illinois_jpg_150x150_crop_q85.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422086538657792434&quot; style=&quot;float: left; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; cursor: pointer; width: 150px; height: 150px; &quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;2. Sufjan Stevens, Illinois&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Se si volesse applicare il concetto di letteratura alla musica, sicuramente &lt;i&gt;Illinois&lt;/i&gt; sarebbe tra i suoi capolavori. I personaggi del disco, ognuno dotato di vita propria, ben rappresentano una parte spesso nascosta di noi stessi. Si muovono attraverso brani-racconti accompagnati dalla chitarra di &lt;b&gt;Sufjan&lt;/b&gt; e da arrangiamenti sempre in tema con gli umori degli stessi. In breve, un kolossal in tempi di film a basso costo.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.vaguespace.net/blog/files/sufjan_stevens_illinoise_15_the_predatory_wasp_of_the_palisades_is_out_to_get_us.mp3&quot;&gt;Download/Listen to&lt;/a&gt; - The Predatory Wasp... by Sufjan Stevens (thx to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.vaguespace.net/&quot;&gt;Vague Space&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; &quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkXScpL3Wr8_uIjJPp1yRYRms6R2Hs0EMVRQDiv4Gfe-wzjZbuYFoB8adDAwJgCkit0vWAEMpSN0-HZbxM0nRR96MtdenAn4copYvn5_zIdxEpgy4u_-V3yyt2DpmtDGAxNzJc/s200/funeral.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422087387080587730&quot; style=&quot;float: left; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; cursor: pointer; width: 150px; height: 150px; &quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;1. Arcade Fire, Funeral&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Una riflessione sulla morte che parte dai ricordi racchiusi in una camera da letto: gli &lt;b&gt;Arcade Fire&lt;/b&gt; tracciano un solco indie-rock che molte band proveranno a ripetere, senza mai riuscirci. &lt;i&gt;Funeral&lt;/i&gt; è un viaggio a ritroso nel tempo, dove ogni brano è allo stesso tempo flashback ed istantanea di uno stato esistenziale presente. E&#39; un album unico, difficile da realizzare o pianificare a priori, difficilissimo se non impossibile da ripetere.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://dailyrefill.blogs.com/daily/files/01_neighborhood_1_tunnels_1.mp3&quot;&gt;Download/Listen to&lt;/a&gt; - Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels) by Arcade Fire (thx to &lt;a href=&quot;http://dailyrefill.blogs.com/&quot;&gt;Daily Refill&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/feeds/3598741227889155708/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/31634897/3598741227889155708?isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/3598741227889155708'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/3598741227889155708'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/2010/01/top-10-albums-2000-2009.html' title='Top 10 Albums 2000-2009'/><author><name>Unknown</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgADB-QbkDRG0WuRVd9qajVuhrJEaIOYLdLPlIkYVfkwkqb2bMncZWFOjMQF831R2hWFA0c56bh4g7ZhXIK-hgPnPdZr4vYCp-w1d7-mYVL8cSWFy_5bk3NAcOMen4m3VDRhO5u/s72-c/wilco-a-ghost-is-born-150x150.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31634897.post-3300373984214291174</id><published>2008-09-17T10:25:00.004+02:00</published><updated>2008-09-17T10:30:45.979+02:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Download"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Pony Proof Records"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Pop"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Rock"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="UK"/><title type='text'>I Worked On the Ships by Ballboy</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot; href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiimRKnxK6EnOIMoaUW1D5ilbcAvMANgyAzIQrwkb_CJowZwZD84bEutUzmZSEFmLasF4R__Hz8w4FNPcFza19T8DrGK7pVuJyAZsfev64KEmKhFFe67ydC2-GYjVdsRYGBzu-o/s1600-h/cd+ballboy.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiimRKnxK6EnOIMoaUW1D5ilbcAvMANgyAzIQrwkb_CJowZwZD84bEutUzmZSEFmLasF4R__Hz8w4FNPcFza19T8DrGK7pVuJyAZsfev64KEmKhFFe67ydC2-GYjVdsRYGBzu-o/s200/cd+ballboy.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246903804690484626&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ok, un blog è sicuramente uno spazio personale, dove parlare di cose più o meno personali. Un blog musicale però dovrebbe avere un minimo di obiettività e cercare -almeno in parte- di soddisfare le aspettative dei visitatori. Il fatto è che questo blog, musicalmente parlando, sta diventando un po&#39; troppo personale e decisamente sempre meno obiettivo. Lo testimonia il post precedente, ma soprattutto la segnalazione che sto per farvi. Si tratta, infatti, di una delle mie band preferite, seconda nella mia classifica personal-mentale, solo ai Belle and Sebastian pre-Rough Trade (quelli che pubblicavano per la Jeepster, per intenderci). Sto parlando del nuovo album di &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ballboymusic.com/&quot;&gt;Ballboy&lt;/a&gt;, band scozzese come quella appena citata, che fa capo a tale Gordon McIntyre. &lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;I Worked On the Ships&lt;/span&gt; è il quinto album per questo gruppo di Edinburgo che l&#39;amato John Peel volle per ben cinque volte ospite alle sue session. Non c&#39;è molta novità in questo disco rispetto agli album passati, a parte il passaggio alla Pony Proof Records. C&#39;è forse una leggera tendenza all&#39;acustico, come in &lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;The Sash My Father Wore and Other Stories&lt;/span&gt; (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.slrecords.net/&quot;&gt;SL Records&lt;/a&gt;, 2003), ma rimangono le canzoni dai titoli lunghissimi, il richiamo agli Smiths e, soprattutto, quella che è stato definita &quot;poesia in grado di far pensare&quot;, che si può tradurre semplicemente nella capacità della musica di trasportare l&#39;ascoltatore non solo in luoghi più o meno lontani (la Scozia), ma in altre situazioni esistenziali. E scusate se è poco. Ok, allora: vi lascio una chicca, ma a patto che compriate l&#39;album...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ballboymusic.com/downloads/peelsessions/letsfallinloveandrunawayfromhere.mp3&quot;&gt;Download/Listen to&lt;/a&gt; - Let&#39;s Fall in Love and Run Away From Here by Ballboy (Peel Session, 9 Novembre 2004)&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/feeds/3300373984214291174/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/31634897/3300373984214291174?isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/3300373984214291174'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/3300373984214291174'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/2008/09/i-worked-on-ships-by-ballboy.html' title='I Worked On the Ships by Ballboy'/><author><name>Unknown</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiimRKnxK6EnOIMoaUW1D5ilbcAvMANgyAzIQrwkb_CJowZwZD84bEutUzmZSEFmLasF4R__Hz8w4FNPcFza19T8DrGK7pVuJyAZsfev64KEmKhFFe67ydC2-GYjVdsRYGBzu-o/s72-c/cd+ballboy.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31634897.post-5078253507995279288</id><published>2008-09-16T11:29:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2008-09-16T11:34:59.560+02:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Download"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Elettronica"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Italy"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Knifeville"/><title type='text'>Cascades by Arnoux</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot; href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgu7xF-27lLHvF03qwdcZ5TPSpmgC2GpRzo7Qrox0W5Qi4PYAPWgSv1IE7fypyyB7KVpwZLHJ-qQG64_KKaDMWj8-idbwdi7ITgxJsbrpHRO7cSyKlIh2qGaXXjy8SLVdExeoW1/s1600-h/arnoux_cover.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgu7xF-27lLHvF03qwdcZ5TPSpmgC2GpRzo7Qrox0W5Qi4PYAPWgSv1IE7fypyyB7KVpwZLHJ-qQG64_KKaDMWj8-idbwdi7ITgxJsbrpHRO7cSyKlIh2qGaXXjy8SLVdExeoW1/s200/arnoux_cover.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246549220415183106&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ancora me lo ricordo: sono stato probabilmente l&#39;unico a mettere i Ten Thousand Bees tra i primi -migliori- dieci album del 2007. Che ci volete fare, a volte l&#39;italianità chiama e, quando lo fa, bisogna rispondere. Per questo post, dunque, non valgono le abituali considerazioni statistiche sul numero di visite e sull&#39;importanza dell&#39;argomento trattato. E poi quelli della &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.knifeville.it/&quot;&gt;Knifeville&lt;/a&gt;, label di Maniago (Pordenone, Friuli Venezia Giulia) che si occupa di promuovere esclusivamente la musica del proprio territorio, mi sono sempre andati a genio. Ecco, allora, che non potevo mancare di segnalarvi l&#39;album d&#39;esordio di &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.myspace.com/arnouxindahouse&quot;&gt;Arnoux&lt;/a&gt;, progetto solista di Fabio Arnosti che -guarda caso- è il bassista delle &quot;diecimila api&quot;. &lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;Cascades&lt;/span&gt;, questo il titolo del disco, è composto da otto brani che richiamano l&#39;indietronica del già citato gruppo, rielaborandola però in un contesto più &quot;liquido&quot; (acquatico, se si guarda la copertina), dai ritmi ancora più lenti e dilatati. Da notare che il prezzo è 10 Euro (spese postali incluse) e che il package comprende una serie di foto di Lara Trevisan. Per darvi una ulteriore spinta all&#39;acquisto, vi lascio queste due tracce in free download. A questo punto però, non potete lasciatevelo scappare!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.knifeville.it/mp3/arnoux-today_a_rainy_day.mp3&quot;&gt;Download&lt;/a&gt; - Today, A Rainy Day by Arnoux&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.knifeville.it/mp3/arnoux-mia_and_me.mp3&quot;&gt;Download&lt;/a&gt; - Mia &amp;amp; Me by Arnoux&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/feeds/5078253507995279288/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/31634897/5078253507995279288?isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/5078253507995279288'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/5078253507995279288'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/2008/09/cascades-by-arnoux.html' title='Cascades by Arnoux'/><author><name>Unknown</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgu7xF-27lLHvF03qwdcZ5TPSpmgC2GpRzo7Qrox0W5Qi4PYAPWgSv1IE7fypyyB7KVpwZLHJ-qQG64_KKaDMWj8-idbwdi7ITgxJsbrpHRO7cSyKlIh2qGaXXjy8SLVdExeoW1/s72-c/arnoux_cover.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31634897.post-1410955352183816810</id><published>2008-09-15T10:20:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2008-09-15T10:25:05.765+02:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Iceland"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Italy"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="News"/><title type='text'>Emiliana Torrini live su Oui FM e BBC Radio 2</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;La cantautrice italo-islandese Emiliana Torrini si esibirà live per la radio francese &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ouifm.fr/&quot;&gt;Oui FM&lt;/a&gt;.

Il fatto che non si sappia praticamente nulla del loro nuovo album, la cui uscita è prevista per il 22 Settembre per &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.interscope.com/&quot;&gt;Interscope&lt;/a&gt; (USA) e &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.4ad.com/&quot;&gt;4AD&lt;/a&gt; (Resto del Mondo), non me li rende più simpatici. Tra le poche cose che si sanno c&#39;è il titolo, &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;Dear Science&lt;/span&gt;, che -la band si è affrettata a precisare- è da intendersi con una &quot;virgola&quot; finale. A parte questa segnalazione, vi farà piacere essere messi al corrente che il primo singolo, &quot;Golden Age&quot; è già disponibile e può essere ascoltato in streaming, così come &quot;Dancing Choose&quot;, sul &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.myspace.com/tvotr&quot;&gt;myspace&lt;/a&gt; della band. Comunque, al di là di ciò, la ragione per cui i TV On The Radio non sono uno dei miei gruppi preferiti è squisitamente musicale (la professionalità prima di tutto). Però questa cosa della scienza non la mando proprio giù! Qualcuno ha scritto che il loro quarto album sarà &quot;una lettera aperta sulla comprensione umana e sui limiti dell&#39;insopportabile razionalismo&quot;. Ma fatemi il piacere! Forse è meglio che vi ascoltiate questa &quot;Golden Age&quot;, va&#39; (da intendersi con l&#39;apostrofo -mi raccomando).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.minneapolisfuckingrocks.com/mp3/Top%20Ten%20August%2031/TV%20On%20The%20Radio%20-%20Golden%20Age.mp3&quot;&gt;Download/Listen to&lt;/a&gt; - Golden Age by TV On the Radio</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/feeds/8325403832860164976/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/31634897/8325403832860164976?isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/8325403832860164976'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/8325403832860164976'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/2008/09/golden-age-by-tv-on-radio.html' title='Golden Age by TV On the Radio'/><author><name>Unknown</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3Bfxo6nMMpJ9IgWgETb22UkOPuGFWQg5a87qPMtbnW0roocs1LXVLwq4h4f2znjP3Yglae6zqHnQ8gW4KRP2bZl7g9IvOHNjNlj5Hdj5Q-_GVsMxCOpgdfM5yZdFAziig45XA/s72-c/tv_on_the_radio_-_dear_science.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31634897.post-7663291730238299078</id><published>2008-09-08T06:12:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2008-09-08T06:20:03.466+02:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Blues"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Download"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="iTunes"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Rock"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="USA"/><title type='text'>Belles by The Gutter Twins</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot; href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCONg9WTEDyLrVM95vfwDrthyphenhyphen1xLsXNVwh2OnW2AuiVvcqPGeiCdQOOd71QecNVu2MOle85DRbTVTdrr35irbYgwTWMT1vh5qivm1qFydOPOKizgQD_2LZHPbDXfTKuKe4o9I3/s1600-h/The_Gutter_Twins_Adorata.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCONg9WTEDyLrVM95vfwDrthyphenhyphen1xLsXNVwh2OnW2AuiVvcqPGeiCdQOOd71QecNVu2MOle85DRbTVTdrr35irbYgwTWMT1vh5qivm1qFydOPOKizgQD_2LZHPbDXfTKuKe4o9I3/s200/The_Gutter_Twins_Adorata.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5243498779589582722&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Evidentemente, Mark Lanegan e Greg Dulli, aka &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theguttertwins.com/&quot;&gt;The Gutter Twins,&lt;/a&gt; ci hanno preso gusto. Non sono passati, infatti, nemmeno sei mesi dall&#39;uscita di &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;Saturnalia&lt;/span&gt; (Sub Pop, 2008), ed ecco che i due ci riportano dritti dritti nelle atmosfere gotiche del loro album &quot;d&#39;esordio&quot;. &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;Adorata&lt;/span&gt;, questo il titolo del nuovo lavoro, è un EP contenente 8 brani, che può essere scaricato esclusivamente in forma digitale da iTunes. Si tratta principalmente di cover, pescate dal repertorio di artisti affini musicalmente al duo, come Primal Scream, Vetiver, Jose Gonzalez e Scott Walker. La canzone che vi propongo, &quot;Belles&quot;, oltre che la title-track, è invece l&#39;unica traccia inedita di questo &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;Adorata EP&lt;/span&gt;.

Casualmente, era da qualche giorno che avevo un album di questo genere nel cassetto. Anzi, per la precisione si tratta di un doppio Mini-CD 3&quot;, in edizione limitata -350 copie, ognuna singolarmente numerata e impacchettata; e il genere rientra più o meno nella definizioni di ambient, minimal, downtempo. Sto parlando di &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;I Can&#39;t Believe It&#39;s Not Better&lt;/span&gt;, ultima fatica di Andrew Johnson e Nicola Hodgkinson, aka The Remote Viewer, da poco uscita per Mobeer. Non sono mai stato un fan di questo tipo di musica, quindi ammetto di essere stato attirato soprattutto dalla copertina dell&#39;album, dal titolo sconsolante (che, in verità, faceva più pensare ad una sorta di shoegaze stile Galaxie 500) e dal fatto che nessuno dei dieci brani presenti avesse un titolo. Non si tratta di un disco di difficile ascolto. Non è cervellotico o roba del genere. E&#39; molto vicino alle atmosfere di Milosh; ed si presta decisamente all&#39;ascolto in contesti metropolitani grigi e piovosi. Purtroppo, non ho trovato niente su internet da farvi ascoltare; e neppure un link da segnalarvi. Per una volta però, può andare bene così: sulla fiducia.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/feeds/2737601312171142037/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/31634897/2737601312171142037?isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/2737601312171142037'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/2737601312171142037'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/2008/09/i-cant-believe-its-not-better-by-remote.html' title='I Can&#39;t Believe It&#39;s Not Better by The Remote Viewer'/><author><name>Unknown</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTTy9iHmxtSWjg1NdpGn6TGOfLzIhCJrm2-5bgu04iVQYcy_dAmIhCRQc8uD4PEe7sGV1_RyUwE4oEQEpRwSRwSy8tTVoTSjdTkW2bwoO8CGYHnwThSDzt4gAWwsd9Z8jtIEOn/s72-c/trv_icbinb.png" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31634897.post-835316628331216453</id><published>2008-09-06T09:36:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2008-09-06T09:43:23.143+02:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Canada"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Download"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Pop"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Rock"/><title type='text'>Sad Robot by Stars</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot; href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBeSlcMle4TYuZelAh7Tuwu6TkP3JoxQ7waA02SaB6aLTRjdjKYElDNLpEEKvi07NI6BeGoNLQp2cHNXMFQ63jmyCMQUe9Dm1q703AIO2M2uCtN7Fnp3YVAyQelerZFt99nBI6/s1600-h/stars_sad_robots_ep.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBeSlcMle4TYuZelAh7Tuwu6TkP3JoxQ7waA02SaB6aLTRjdjKYElDNLpEEKvi07NI6BeGoNLQp2cHNXMFQ63jmyCMQUe9Dm1q703AIO2M2uCtN7Fnp3YVAyQelerZFt99nBI6/s200/stars_sad_robots_ep.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5242809200074374050&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Ok, Pitchfork mi ha preceduto per quanto riguarda l&#39;ultimo EP dei Clientele (il link non lo metto per ovvia invidia...), ma per quanto riguarda il nuovo degli &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.arts-crafts.ca/stars/&quot;&gt;Stars&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;Sad Robots EP&lt;/span&gt;, non vedo nessuna nuvola all&#39;orizzonte. Fatemi, dunque, cominciare dicendo che il download digitale del disco sarà disponibile soltanto dall&#39;apposito &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sadrobots.ca/&quot;&gt;sito ufficiale&lt;/a&gt;, mentre le copie classiche, in edizione limitata, potranno essere acquistate esclusivamente durante le date del tour. Ma ne ho già abbastanza di marketing musicale più o meno creativo e quindi passo subito alle canzoni. Si tratta di cinque inediti e di una versione live di &quot;Going, Going, Gone&quot;, brano contenuto in &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;Nightsongs&lt;/span&gt; (Le Grand Magistery, 2001), tra l&#39;altro in free download previa creazione di un account. Per quanto riguarda il gruppo, li ho amati in &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;Set Yourself on Fire&lt;/span&gt; (Arts &amp;amp; Crafts, 2004), mentre non sono riuscito ad apprezzare pienamente il successivo &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;In Our Bedroom After the War&lt;/span&gt; (2007). Qui, almeno dai primi ascolti, la band canadese sembra non accontentarsi di rimanere nel solco dell&#39;indie pop. Non posso che apprezzare, dunque, le atmosfere dimesse, i toni di sconfitta, annunciata dalla voce dream-pop di Torquil Campbell, accompagnata ora da singole e ripetute note di pianoforte, ora da un uso dilatato dell&#39;elettronica. Potete farvi un&#39;idea di quello che scrivo, ascoltando la track conclusiva dell&#39;EP, &quot;Sad Robot&quot;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cavacool.com/files/06-sad-robot.mp3&quot;&gt;Download/Listen to&lt;/a&gt; - Sad Robot by Stars (thx to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cavacool.com/&quot;&gt;Ca Va Cool&lt;/a&gt;)</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/feeds/835316628331216453/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/31634897/835316628331216453?isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/835316628331216453'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/835316628331216453'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/2008/09/sad-robot-by-stars.html' title='Sad Robot by Stars'/><author><name>Unknown</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBeSlcMle4TYuZelAh7Tuwu6TkP3JoxQ7waA02SaB6aLTRjdjKYElDNLpEEKvi07NI6BeGoNLQp2cHNXMFQ63jmyCMQUe9Dm1q703AIO2M2uCtN7Fnp3YVAyQelerZFt99nBI6/s72-c/stars_sad_robots_ep.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31634897.post-5248857130849242870</id><published>2008-09-05T08:03:00.004+02:00</published><updated>2008-09-05T08:14:02.361+02:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Download"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Nickel and Dimes"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Pop"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Rock"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="UK"/><title type='text'>The Only Man in Town by Moose</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot; href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhjUIlBc9Pw7YQZGTHBB7-OKLeC-XSEKrDzx30ccQ8x3P8mSRXULNg8xXBu898mAl-XW1R5mKbmEj7AKwoWqKrGIp_sYqZRopb6bgXQtY5e99kkM7yJp-QZnrVr90hChOkmua8/s1600-h/highball_me.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhjUIlBc9Pw7YQZGTHBB7-OKLeC-XSEKrDzx30ccQ8x3P8mSRXULNg8xXBu898mAl-XW1R5mKbmEj7AKwoWqKrGIp_sYqZRopb6bgXQtY5e99kkM7yJp-QZnrVr90hChOkmua8/s200/highball_me.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5242414263208461810&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;E&#39; bello esagerare, a volte. In barba a tutte le leggi, di mercato e non. E&#39; bello lasciarsi trasportare dal cuore, a volte. A volte, bisogna agire senza pensare. Senza fare calcoli. Vengo al punto. Una band che non c&#39;è più, i Moose, e il cui genere, agli esordi, venne subito etichettato come shoegaze, ossia come &quot;la scena che celebra se stessa&quot; -secondo una famosa definizione di Steve Sutherland di Melody Maker. Un frontman, Russell Yates, che leggeva i testi sdraiato sul pavimento. Un&#39;etichetta, la Hut Records, che molla il gruppo dopo il successo (di critica) ed il fallimento (di vendite) del terzo EP. Un&#39;altra, la Play It Again Sam (PIAS), che ci investe giusto qualche dollaro. In mezzo, il tentativo di autoprodursi attraverso la Cool Badge. Su un sito ho letto una definizione per questa band: &quot;Pop perfetto ignorato da criminali&quot;. Infine, nel 1995, la svolta: la band londinese abbandona le influenze di My Bloody Valentine &amp;amp; C. e vira decisamente verso il pop-rock. Qualcuno in cerca di influenze ha tirato in ballo anche il classic rock dei Byrds. Personalmente, li vedo molto più vicini al vecchio pop d&#39;oltremanica degli Smiths e, più recentemente, dello scozzese Ballboy. Se, dunque, a metà Anni Novanta ascoltavate solo Oasis e Blur, forse vi siete persi qualcosa. Vo offro, dunque, l&#39;occasione per redimervi con questa &quot;The Only Man in Town&quot;, tratta da &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;HighBall Me!&lt;/span&gt; (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nickelanddimerecords.com/&quot;&gt;Nickel &amp;amp; Dimes&lt;/a&gt;, 2000), purtroppo l&#39;ultimo album della band. Inoltre, se vi va di approfondire, oltre che cercarli su Wikipedia, vi consiglio di visitare il loro &lt;a href=&quot;http://slowconfetti.com/moose/&quot;&gt;sito non-ufficiale&lt;/a&gt; ed il &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.myspace.com/uptowninvisible&quot;&gt;myspace&lt;/a&gt; di un fan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.pandamagazine.se/Moose%20-%20the_only_man_in_town.mp3&quot;&gt;Download/Listen to&lt;/a&gt; - The Only Man in Town by Moose (thx to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.pandamagazine.se/&quot;&gt;Panda Magazine&lt;/a&gt;)</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/feeds/5248857130849242870/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/31634897/5248857130849242870?isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/5248857130849242870'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/5248857130849242870'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/2008/09/only-man-in-town-by-moose.html' title='The Only Man in Town by Moose'/><author><name>Unknown</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhjUIlBc9Pw7YQZGTHBB7-OKLeC-XSEKrDzx30ccQ8x3P8mSRXULNg8xXBu898mAl-XW1R5mKbmEj7AKwoWqKrGIp_sYqZRopb6bgXQtY5e99kkM7yJp-QZnrVr90hChOkmua8/s72-c/highball_me.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31634897.post-5316226622191058587</id><published>2008-09-04T08:40:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2008-09-04T08:52:27.056+02:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Canada"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Download"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Folk"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Rock"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Saddle Creek"/><title type='text'>Some Are Lakes by Land of Talk</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot; href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0slxQQFDQm0MitVyha_4OxC5mrZXzTIvqjcXQ1GsivmXvYJQVRXhIeZaOoRGDCNd8NdET5JSnei7DxmmPmGtgNhr1SzvnHg_gP2riuxdCHICg_UW2JJoPF5UW-Qah8LERsKaO/s1600-h/some_are_lakes.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0slxQQFDQm0MitVyha_4OxC5mrZXzTIvqjcXQ1GsivmXvYJQVRXhIeZaOoRGDCNd8NdET5JSnei7DxmmPmGtgNhr1SzvnHg_gP2riuxdCHICg_UW2JJoPF5UW-Qah8LERsKaO/s200/some_are_lakes.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5242052588138358834&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Mettiamola così: sono da poco finite le Olimpiadi e la gente è tornata al lavoro. L&#39;estate caldissima di quest&#39;anno continua. Fra poco i più giovani se ne torneranno dritti sui banchi di scuola o nelle aule universitarie. Bene, non me ne può fregare di meno. Questo era soltanto per occupare qualche riga di testo. Quello che voglio veramente dire è che le ultime uscite targate &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.saddle-creek.com/&quot;&gt;Saddle Creek&lt;/a&gt; non sono state, per il sottoscritto, fonte di stupore e meraviglia. A ci aggiungo pure che, tra i migliori tre album dell&#39;anno scorso, a dispetto di qualche classifica che ho pubblicato altrove, c&#39;è sicuramente quello di Justin Vernon, aka Bon Iver. Il nonsense però finisce qui, perchè c&#39;è un delicato filo conduttore che lega queste ultime cose che ho detto. Questo filo risponde al nome di &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.landoftalk.com/&quot;&gt;Land of Talk&lt;/a&gt;, ossia il progetto musicale della cantautrice Elizabeth Powell e del bassista Chris McCarron. Per il loro primo album, &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;Some Are Lakes&lt;/span&gt;, in uscita appunto per Saddle Creek, la band si è fatta aiutare da Andrew Barr dei The Slip e, soprattutto, dal già citato Justin Vernon. Quello che ne è venuto fuori sono dieci canzoni tra &quot;il senso per lo storytelling della Powell e la freschezza di Bon Iver&quot;. Se vogliamo rimanere in tema di definizioni approssimative, lo definirei una sorta di electric-folk. A me la title track è piaciuta molto. Che ne dite?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.saddle-creek.com/sounds/LandOfTalk_SomeAreLakes.mp3&quot;&gt;Download/Listen to&lt;/a&gt; - Some Are Lakes by Land of Talk</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/feeds/5316226622191058587/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/31634897/5316226622191058587?isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/5316226622191058587'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/5316226622191058587'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/2008/09/some-are-lakes-by-land-of-talk.html' title='Some Are Lakes by Land of Talk'/><author><name>Unknown</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0slxQQFDQm0MitVyha_4OxC5mrZXzTIvqjcXQ1GsivmXvYJQVRXhIeZaOoRGDCNd8NdET5JSnei7DxmmPmGtgNhr1SzvnHg_gP2riuxdCHICg_UW2JJoPF5UW-Qah8LERsKaO/s72-c/some_are_lakes.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31634897.post-7095974469440282319</id><published>2008-08-25T10:04:00.006+02:00</published><updated>2008-08-25T10:12:16.593+02:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="France"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Italy"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Marsiglia Records"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Motoneige"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="My Honey"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="News"/><title type='text'>Nuove uscite My Honey a Settembre</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot; href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjN9gRjPPgtolUmrtsZXUb0g8Cqev7AsuyfmMs8FyEKGg7t9oUdqNb2_LvJQufQnBlNXAtyY6wNovmBx84-wXJLsF4TtL170zzhC6-cciRB4XzK0xgCH4RQLFFzC7dO2Dtydxnp/s1600-h/mange_tout.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjN9gRjPPgtolUmrtsZXUb0g8Cqev7AsuyfmMs8FyEKGg7t9oUdqNb2_LvJQufQnBlNXAtyY6wNovmBx84-wXJLsF4TtL170zzhC6-cciRB4XzK0xgCH4RQLFFzC7dO2Dtydxnp/s200/mange_tout.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5238363356399364210&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Che il 1 Settembre, storicamente, non sia una data molto popolare, soprattutto dagli studenti, è cosa risaputa. E quelli della &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.myhoney.it/&quot;&gt;My Honey&lt;/a&gt; lo sanno molto bene, tanto che hanno deciso di addolcire la pillola con un po&#39; del loro miele e, nello specifico, rilasciare ben due nuove uscite. La prima riguarda i &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.myspace.com/jordanmusic&quot;&gt;Jordan&lt;/a&gt;, un trio post-punk davvero esplosivo, che pubblica il suo primo album, &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;Oh No! We Are Dominos!&lt;/span&gt; in coproduzione con l&#39;etichetta francese &lt;a href=&quot;http://motoneigerecords.free.fr/page_accueil.html&quot;&gt;Motoneige&lt;/a&gt; e, appunto, la bresciana My Honey. Il disco viene annunciato come qualcosa di &quot;esplosivo&quot;. Un motivo in più, dunque, per andarli a vedere dal vivo, durante il loro tour italiano, dal 11 al 16 Novembre. La seconda uscita è, invece, un EP del duo &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.myspace.com/lesmangetout&quot;&gt;Mange-Tout&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;Teatime with Mr. Who&lt;/span&gt;, questo il titolo, è un concentrato di canzoni folk-pop, nate dalla penna e dalla voce della genovese Germana e della francese Nathalie (Le Havre). La coproduzione è questa volta con &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.marsigliarecords.it/&quot;&gt;Marsiglia Records&lt;/a&gt; (Genova). Quelli della My Honey, però, si sono messi in testa di allietare alla grande il nostro ritorno dalle vacanze: non bastassero queste due uscite, ci sono i saldi a farci contenti! Tutti coloro, infatti, che acquisteranno almeno due dischi dal catalogo, ne riceveranno uno in omaggio tra Mixtapes &amp;amp; Cellmates - &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;St&lt;/span&gt;, AAVV - &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;Let it Bee&lt;/span&gt;, Mutt Ramon - &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;Lasten musiikki&lt;/span&gt;, Soda Fountain Rag - &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;I love you&lt;/span&gt;, Detektivbyrån &amp;amp; Hemstad - &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;split 7&lt;/span&gt;. Cosa dire, dunque, se non: &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;Chapeau&lt;/span&gt;!</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/feeds/7095974469440282319/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/31634897/7095974469440282319?isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/7095974469440282319'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/7095974469440282319'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/2008/08/nuove-uscite-my-honey-settembre.html' title='Nuove uscite My Honey a Settembre'/><author><name>Unknown</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjN9gRjPPgtolUmrtsZXUb0g8Cqev7AsuyfmMs8FyEKGg7t9oUdqNb2_LvJQufQnBlNXAtyY6wNovmBx84-wXJLsF4TtL170zzhC6-cciRB4XzK0xgCH4RQLFFzC7dO2Dtydxnp/s72-c/mange_tout.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31634897.post-536152320501316391</id><published>2008-08-22T15:14:00.004+02:00</published><updated>2008-08-22T15:26:11.799+02:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Bloodshot Records"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Glitterhouse"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Pop"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Rock"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="USA"/><title type='text'>White Snow by Ben Weaver</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot; href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2dtOa2lyPmpuZYmuueJMFYoC9ZGRP_LYPVfrve3cpdcfVbuHnGaKyFh_UW-GJlTdZJNOdasaqJP5Y85ypLdY2bLP_TXNgtiD4we43TZGKHtv6ksCh2Y2-lK6F39SQ9gZG01gZ/s1600-h/the_ax_in_the_oak.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2dtOa2lyPmpuZYmuueJMFYoC9ZGRP_LYPVfrve3cpdcfVbuHnGaKyFh_UW-GJlTdZJNOdasaqJP5Y85ypLdY2bLP_TXNgtiD4we43TZGKHtv6ksCh2Y2-lK6F39SQ9gZG01gZ/s200/the_ax_in_the_oak.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5237330220232885074&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Fondamentalmente, dentro di me ne sono sempre stato convinto: per quanto riguarda la musica che a me piace, il Minnesota è il luogo per eccellenza, forse non a caso confinante con quella floridissima ed altrettanto diversificata scena canadese. Se poi si parla di pop-rock, le Twin Cities ne rappresentano, forse più di ogni altro luogo, la capitale. L&#39;occasione per ribadirlo è il sesto album per &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.benweaver.net/&quot;&gt;Ben Weaver&lt;/a&gt;, &quot;il più interessante cantautore che si possa incontrare&quot; secondo lo scrittore Larry Brown. &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;The Ax in the Oak&lt;/span&gt;, questo il titolo del disco in uscita per &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bloodshotrecords.com/&quot;&gt;Bloodshot&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bloodshotrecords.com/&quot;&gt; Records&lt;/a&gt; /&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.glitterhouse.com/&quot;&gt;Glitterhouse&lt;/a&gt;, vede ancora la produzione di Brian Deck (Iron &amp;amp; Wine, Modest Mouse), dopo la fruttuosa collaborazione per il precedente &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;Paper Sky&lt;/span&gt; (Fugawee Bird Records, 2007). L&#39;approccio questa volta è appena più sperimentale, con alcune leggere incursioni nell&#39;elettronica. Ma il songwriting e le atmosfere sono comunque quelle tipiche dell&#39;artista americano, sospese a metà tra malinconia e oscurità da un lato e speranza e romanticismo dall&#39;altro. C&#39;è qualcosa di Casiotone For The Painfully Alone in questo disco, ma anche una reminiscenza dei vecchi Semisonic; e, per inciso, non manca neppure qualche ascolto di Bright Eyes. Non è un disco che passerà alla storia, ma si tratta comunque di un lavoro da tenere in considerazione.

L&#39;evento, organizzato dall&#39;associazione eco-culturale &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.whathasbeen.com/&quot;&gt;Whathasbeen&lt;/a&gt;, si terrà dal 29 al 31 Agosto a Bagnaria Arsa (Udine), vicino l&#39;ex campo di tiro a volo, tre minuti dall&#39;uscita autostradale A4 di Palmanova. L&#39;occasione sembra ottima anche per sfruttare questi ultimi giorni di estate, per un tuffo in mezzo al verde a base di pic-nic e campeggio.

Poi sono venuti Prince, che ha fatto uscire un suo lavoro insieme ad un quotidiano; Nine Inch Nails, che regalava i suoi dischi ai concerti; ora è il turno di Minotaur Shock, aka David Edwards. La ricetta è simile, ma con qualche ingrediente diverso: questa volta, infatti, è stato l&#39;artista a dare una valutazione economica ai brani del suo ultimo disco, &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;Amateur Dramatics&lt;/span&gt; (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.4ad.com/&quot;&gt;4AD&lt;/a&gt;), tenendo in considerazione la difficoltà tecnica del brano, i musicisti che l&#39;hanno di volta in volta accompagnato, i &quot;crash del computer&quot;, ecc. Andando sul &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.minotaurshock.com/&quot;&gt;sito ufficiale&lt;/a&gt;, infatti, si possono trovare canzoni che vanno da 33p a 75p, oppure è possibile comprare l&#39;intero album alla modica cifra di £6.41. Interessante, non trovate?</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/feeds/6896808368921040428/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/31634897/6896808368921040428?isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/6896808368921040428'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31634897/posts/default/6896808368921040428'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pamello.blogspot.com/2008/08/minotaur-shock-valuta-i-brani-di.html' title='Minotaur Shock valuta i brani di Amateur Dramatics'/><author><name>Unknown</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVoTqcsiAl4SiT0iLCsNUXW0IyAjKrUUXx6wQDVDtXxUP7uzsXU0fkfQqv1kG7bmGmnxj9HJWf5hT0qpEG29eSz8DF7c50cc1X7ozImQVD392l-slj7V8_XvmWBZpyD1JpT8RO/s72-c/amateurdramatics.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
