Album Reviews

Lights- Siberia

Siberia is Canadian singer Lights’ second official album, even though she released a couple of EPs. The first single out of that album is the highly addictive song “Toes.” Where the first album sounded very electro-pop, this album is more raw. The music is less clean and less perfect. On her website she mentions that what made her change her music was when she heard dubstep, which she includes in a couple of tracks on this album. She titled the album Siberia because even though Siberia is a cold, a little daunting and an unfamiliar territory, somebody told her she could be happy even there, and she found that really inspiring. Lights says the album came from a very happy place, and it can easily be heard while listening to Siberia.

 

Hedley- Storms

Hedley’s fourth album Storms really has nothing new in terms of what the album sounds like. The first single “Invincible” gives a really good preview of the general vibe of the album. The band themselves describe the album to be ‘‘jam-packed with both get-your-lighter-out slow songs and hard-driving rockers.” The album does have slow songs à la “For the Nights I Can’t Remember,” but for the ‘hard-driving rocker’ parts, they are more pop than rock. Still, Storms is a good album. It is the same Hedley formula, but why change a winning one? If you were a fan of the three previous albums, like I was, you will love it. If you did not like them, your opinion might not change with this album. And if you want to hear the album live, their tour will stop at the Bell Centre on Mar.12 of next year.

 

Florence + the Machine- Ceremonials

This album was a very nice discovery for me. I had not heard any songs by Florence + the Machine before, so I did not know what I was missing out on. The music is genius, the lyrics are deep, and the album just makes you want to sing out loud. This album is a work of art from beginning to end. The biography on her website mentions that she wants music to be an overwhelming experience like falling down a tree and being sucked into the ocean, knowing you can’t resist. This is exactly what I feel when I listen to this album. The first single is called “Shake It Out,” but there are so many great songs like “If Only For A Night” and “Never Let Me Go.”

    HUSKER DU – Zen Arcade

    I need to address something off-topic, because it’s kind of eating at me a little bit. A woman on the Neal Morse message board named “ProgMama” writes, “IMHO, this guys biggest problem is that he seems to think he’s some gonzo genius. I think he’s closer to crackpot than maverick. When the writing style obscures the message, it’s time to edit.” And she’s talking about ME! Granted, most of the people on the Neal Morse message board hate my guts because I called them a bunch of fairies or whatever, but she’s honestly a little too close to the truth for me to write it off as a peeved fan. To address your (and her) concerns, I myself do NOT consider myself either “gonzo” or a “genius.” I hate the term “gonzo” and dislike most writing that is considered “gonzo.” If I fit into that category, that’s unfortunate, but really all I am is a guy who enjoys creating writing that he himself (me, I) consider(s) interesting. I actually AGREE with her that I’m more “crackpot” than “maverick.” But then I find crackpots more interesting than mavericks, so maybe that’s what I’ve been unconsciously going for, who knows. And she really hits the nail on the head when she says that my writing style obscures the message. But see — I don’t really HAVE that much of a message. If I did, I’d be a political orator or a philosopher or something, not some guy who writes record reviews for fun. If my views on the albums are “obscured” by my style, then either you don’t LIKE my style (in which case, you needn’t return) or you’re not looking closely enough. Here’s a hint: if it’s about MUSIC, it’s “the message.” If it’s about ass dildos, it’s “not the message.”

    Now let’s discuss hardcore. A lot of so-called experts claim that hardcore is for kids – that when you grow up, you have to either give it up or remain arrested in adolescence. Well, speaking as a guy who’s been starring in hardcore pornography films since I was eight years old, I’m here to

    A lot of so-called texperts claim that hardcore punk is for kids – that when you grow up, you have to either give it up or remain arrested in adolescence. I don’t agree with this claim even a little bit, and have always seen it as these individual critics’ attempts to color their own changing musical tastes as some sort of maturing process. I’m 30 and I still love good hardcore. Granted, there’s a ton of BAD hardcore, but certainly not any more than there is bad blues-rock or bad power pop or bad indie rock. Every musical genre is going to feature a handful of extremely talented artists and a literal assgrab of ne’er-do-wells. Do I plan to ever listen to a Sick Of It All album again? Shit no! But I imagine I’ll still be enjoying the wonderful riffs of Minor Threat, Dead Kennedys, Misfits and bands like that when I get older and am losing my hair many years from now. Will I still be sending you a valentine? Birthday greetings? Bottle of wine! If you’d been out til

    Zen Arcade is one of the most ambitious and successful hardcore punk creations of every times. My source (“E.L.”) informs me that the three band members were addicted to three different drugs at the time they recorded it (speed, cocaine, alcohol, heroin, diet pills, Nevada, Slim Jims, gambling, nude men), and the impact of all that physical strain, mental drain and emotional pain comes through in a blazing set of screaming, anguished high-speed distorted blasts of unforgiving and unforgettable musical violence. Depending on what kind of person you are, the relentless amphetamine-and-anxiety attacks of classics like “Something I Learned Today,” “Beyond The Threshold,” “Pride” and the UNBELIEVABLE “I’ll Never Forget You” will either fill you with the greatest existential panic you’ve ever imagined or provide an exhausting catharsis to the pent-up aggression that you keep bottled up inside as bosses, teaches and peers take daily metaphorical shits on the shoe of your psyche.

    But Husker Du are not Nine Inch Nails, and would never leave you hanging on your rope, hopeless and helpless. Following twenty tracks of alienation, fear, depression, confusion, political corruption, social conformity and overdose death (I didn’t need to know that “Pink Turns To Blue” is a reference to her SKIN COLOR), they look the darkness in the face and declare atop a harrowing backwards track, “DON’T GIVE UP, DON’T LET GO, DON’T GIVE IN, DON’T LET ON.” Their final word on the topic is just one song later: “Highways fill with refugees/Doctors finding out about disease/With all this uptight pushing & shoving/That keeps us away from who we’re loving.” As Jim Rutledge of Bloodrock once sang, “It’s a sad world,” but as Jesse Colin Young of the Youngbloods once sang, “Everybody get together, try to love one another right now,” and as Sam Cooke once sang, “What a wonderful world this would be.” In fact, I’m not sure if I mentioned this, but right before they recorded this album, Greg Norton quit and they replaced him with Jim Rutledge, Jesse Colin Young and pbllbbbbbbbbbbbbbl

    Hey! Who gave a Bronx cheer to my hilarious yet lengthy punchline? It was YOU, Mr. Typesetter! YOU YOU YOU! If you’ll stop begging, I’ll tell you about that song I sang to my dog tonight on the way home from Central Park. It read as follows: “There’s a rawhide/At home/With your name on it!/There’s a rabbi/Shalom/Bo-bo Ski-yotten-notten!” Speaking of which, I live in the heart of New York City and I tell you what — I don’t think I’ve seen this many “international bankers” in my LIFE! If you’re ever looking for an “international banker,” look no further! In fact, I often secretly refer to this place as “International Banker Town”! Oh wait, the album.

    Though not every song on here would be classified as “hardcore punk,” every track is “informed” by that genre. “Never Talking To You Again” is acoustic, but it’s as bitter, pissed-off and emotional as any HC tune. “Hare Krsna” is just “Hey Bo Diddley” done up all psychedelic, but it’s fucked enough to fit right in. Even the short instrumental piano pieces and guitar pop songs are ribs-deep in angst-driven desperation for a true connection with another person. I sure as heck felt this need as a troubled youth, and I imagine a lot of people do. “Broken Home, Broken Heart” – “Indecision Time” – “The Biggest Lie” – these are not happy songs about a wonderful life in the suburbs. They’re howling shrieks of rage at a world that is more concerned with getting rich and coked up than being honest and caring. And granted, MOST hardcore albums do this. But very few are as emotionally effective and melodically memorable. And it ends with 14 minutes of hardcore/jazz fusion!!!! Like “Bitches Brew,” but… HARDCORE!!!!

    Man oh man. What a fucking great record this is. If Quadrophenia sounded like this, maybe I’d like it. Quadrophenia is a bunch of flabby show tunes for old people; Zen Arcade is a ROCK opera!!! Recorded and mixed in 85 hours. By three geniuses.

    GAY geniuses, that is! Just like Albert Einstein!

    Well, I don’t know. I’m assuming he was gay. He had a mustache.

  • What a Dusey! Thanks David for publishing this sort of a function of artwork…

  • I do not know how to thanks, worked a great deal for me:)
