the second set before you the most interesting songs of this year. This time, more Polish music than the last, but not necessarily in their native language. Have a nice listening;)
honestly say that I'm still hesitating. After several hearings this record I'm still not determined, in its final evaluation. Common sense should be the record of the given name of the place very good. Except that here you have to take into account, for which Greg Dulli accustomed us, and colleagues. I've been so very well is not.
Because this is the correct disc, but nothing more. Will not meet here with the famous nostalgic Twilight As Played By Twilight Singers, do not have that anger and tension, known for its Blackberry Belle, not as dynamic as the Powder Burns. Maybe a little bit because, as Dulli himself said: "This is an album that is not preceded by any event." Actually, Greg Dulli anyone not lost in the meantime, he had no major problems with drugs, did not experience (though here opinions are contradictory) dilemmas of love. Maybe that's why we have, however, quite correct, but still a little bland album ... Because it is clear that the emotional charge we Dulli not regretted it, singing as usual, as if begging for forgiveness, almost sobbing. This characteristic has always been vocal strengths Twilight Singers. But despite this album in memory of collapsing.
Throughout the album correctness, however, I lack a specific reference point. There is not an obvious blockbuster, nor tearjerker nor touching ballads, but also lacks consistency. They are good songs, but are those which still can not remember. It is good, but too bad it is.
Almost 10 years have passed since the debut of The Streets, Original Pirate Material. At that time, Mike Skinner, released 5 albums, including the latest, and also as a musician promises - the last one. Computers and Blues album closes a wonderful period in which The Streets definitions used by the British hip-hop. Record before us, which is a small summary of what Skinner did, but also a collection of the most formidable melodic songs The Streets.
The Streets for the past 10 years have designated deep imprint on hip-hop scene not only of the British Isles. Skinner learned, of course, inter alia, from De La Soul, but his early inspiration to make even The Roots and Hot Chip. An innovative, full electronics, funk, hip hop chillout elements Skinner, namely the first two albums of music were musical revelation. Now that it is time to say goodbye a little retrospection. As I have to say goodbye - it's in the best style.
I nawyraźniej in this spirit of Mike Skinner has created the most accessible, even pop album The Streets, and is not a complaint. Song OMG, Roof Of Your Car, We Can Never Be Friends need for more zawitać on world music charts. Maybe the music is also a sentiment that ended an era. Or maybe it's really the end of The Streets. One thing is certain: Mike Skinner created the best guitar album of his career. As the hymn is Going Through Hell, which includes guest vocals by Robert Harvey of The Music, the song fits the progressive rock era of the 70's. Harvey gave the Soldiers still, here resemblance to "Natural Blues" Moby is at least puzzling. Although more of the invited musicians I like Laura Laura Vane Vane and The Vipertones, which perfectly complements Skinner singing in the chorus, a wonderful vocal OMG enriched sexy backing vocals. The whole story is neatly wrapped in around facebookowej knowledge.
What can I say - The Streets goodbye in style, if all the teams were leaving the projects in this vein, it would be maybe a little less sorry for the leave. Though The Streets and really say goodbye - it knows only Skinner. Meanwhile, I recommend Computers and Blues, a very intelligent hip-hop mish you have alternatives. And this really a lot of hit songs.
