We are at the end of the decade, so I pick up some ideas and impressions on the discs that I consider fundamental and inalienable, among those released in the year 2000. Still much to deepen and
I know, this is a snapshot of what the end of 2009, passing from my stereo, so far has reached my brain and my heart, and left deep scars.
(the order of presentation of the discs is ... is not an alphabetical list)
Nortt / Xasthur - A Curse For The Lifeless / Hedengang
a black abyss. Immerse yourself in the suffering of this disc is an experience that leaves no one indifferent. Piano notes dripping on a bed of ice distortions, and a distorted voice comes from the afterlife. And then dissonant arpeggios and depression ... there is no way out masterpieces like this
Blackfield - Blackfield
A beautiful album of romantic pop, with a pinch of psychedelic. Immediate and effective melodies that recall clearly the Beatles (and thus the Porcupine Tree Lightbulb Sun), arranged by the duo in a superfine Wilson-Geffen, between melancholic arpeggios, guitars liquid inspiration floydiana, choirs and countercurrent. Sentimental and nostalgic atmosphere. Nothing particularly new or experimental, but have heard nothing. In short, engaging melodies and atmosphere outstanding. Personally one of the quotes in the career of Wilson.
Fantomas - Delirium Cordia
Every horror film fan should know this record. But preparing for a listen unpredictable, not just a soundtrack subtly disturbing, no creak of a series of wooden doors. We are faced with a steady stream, alternating with long waits crazy explosions, noise, and passages deep carpets of dark ambient and psychedelic acid. A hard dark and mysterious, but also deeply ironic (as a good slasher film). Once again for the series: "jack ass or a masterpiece." I have no doubt, are the latter.
Guapo - Five Suns
Guapo's music is a sliding scale where instrumental echoes of one another made in canterbury progressive rock, kraut rock, math rock ... Keyboards and bass in evidence for a suite psychedelic flavor
Jesu - Jesu
Wonderful debut of the new project of Justin Broadrick (Godflesh). A sea of \u200b\u200bdistortion and walls of synthesizers to create a hazy and dreamlike, frozen like rust that eats the remains of an industry already dead. A masterpiece somewhere between shoegaze, drone, noise and industrial. Heavy and wonderfully decadent.
Meshuggah - I
Twenty-one minutes. A boulder that summarizes and synthesizes the various facets of Swedish band, making it, thanks to the variety of the proposal, the most immediate previous works. Phenomenal in every single note, I alternated violent outbursts in elastic and heavy riffs, with steps to season acids tutto.Ennesimo masterpiece.
Marillion - Marbles
A magnificent disc, without inventing anything, shows how the progressive rock has yet to give. Melodically impeccable, arranged ever so trivial, is an amazing work guided by a very warm voice and a guitar that speaks to the soul.
Isis - Panopticon Isis Oceanic
After accentuate their side and psychedelic post rock, creating a disk atmospheres ethereal, dreamy, unreal. Do not miss steps violent, though.
glass, cold and transparent, based on which the rays of the sun away. It 'an album that evokes wide open spaces, with nostalgia. He does not tell directly imprisonment and the control to which we are subjected, but the sense of lost freedom that pervades, a feeling of helplessness, and the growing awareness of not being ourselves, but only puppets. It 'a record of strong emotion, which digs into the company via the soul of those who compose it.
Deathspell Omega - The Monumentum Requires, circumspice
The black metal is often considered a kind property, in his quest for uncompromising sound extremism. This band French shows that it is from those who seek to break down the boundaries that the most innovative ideas are born. Mix the icy atmosphere that made the genre popular with acids and dissonant passages worthy of the best noise level, is difficult. But perfectly successful.
The Gathering - Sleepy Buildings - A Semi Acoustic Evening The
of The Gathering is unplugged, personally, the emotional peak of the band's career. Anneke's voice is heavenly and communicative than ever before, and arrangements are warm and deep and give new life to the already beautiful songs.
Neurosis - The Eye of Every Storm
My favorite record of this great band. After the apocalypse of A Sun That Never Sets tones relax. There is a strange feeling of peace, in contemplating the ruins. Images of solitude, fog, and a destroyed city. Steps ambient-flavored psychedelic, acoustic guitars on the edge of apocalyptic folk, post rock arpeggios formally, but opposed by the atmosphere, all perfectly combined with acid distortion and rattling industrial chips. Emotionally devastating.
65daysofstatic - The Fall of Math
The post rock meets electronic music and the result is a beautiful disc, characterized by delicate atmosphere in perfect harmony with rhythms. Melancholic sweetness and rivers of energy, a unique mix that gives oxygen to a musical genre in distress.
Electric Wizard - We Live
less psychedelic and more doom. Burial as a horror movie of the 70, We Live is yet another resurrection of the band Oborn, distorted in the line up. The result is a disc becomes less negative, more compact, yet incredibly intense. Not a disc as some earlier epoch, but definitely a great job, absolutely unmissable for fans of doom and Zozzo acid.
Bark Psychosis - / / / Codename: Dustsucker
After ten years masterpiece Hex Bark Psychosis are back with an album that is not very different from his predecessor but it is exciting, full of charm and delicacy. A sophisticated pop that is tinged with electronic elements, noisy, post rock, all without losing sight of the atmosphere.
