Third

CD-Charts > Music > Electronica
by: Portishead

Release Date April 28, 2008
I'll start this review with a) a confession and b) a confession.

a) I have never heard Portishead's self-titled second album. I'll rectify this sometime soon.

b) I'm somewhat wary about writing my first online music review and giving the subject the maximum score available. But, my god, this record deserves it.

This is something that I've been contemplating for a while now. What makes an album great? Does every track have to be excellent? Or does it simply have to take you on a great journey? Or must it do both?

The signs point to the third answer. And the third answer is fitting of Third.

I can only imagine how long the 11 years since their last studio album have seemed to the ... Read More:

Seventh Tree

Release Date February 25, 2008
Am currently playing this to death! Love, love, love it, maybe even as much as Supernature. Our favourite song is Clowns and my husband keeps playing it over and over again!! It's a great album to chill out in the sunshine to. It lifts the spirit and makes you feel all floaty like :-)

Portishead

Release Date June 18, 1999
Totally amazing, one of the greatest albums ever made. Dark, brooding, with awesome scratching, beautiful and unsettling singing and, in my opinion, superior to Dummy. Love driving at night or smoking at home to this absolute classic. You'd be a fool not to hear it.

Roseland NYC Live

CD-Charts > Music > Electronica
by: Portishead

Release Date June 18, 1999
Other reviewers have said it all - I just want to clarify a couple of things
1) A couple of tracks here are not the same performances as on the companion video. One of them, Roads, was recorded at a festival (and certainly sounds like it!). The other - well, read on...
2) None of the tracks on this album deserve to be damned with the faint praise of "faithful reproduction of the originals". For one thing, they're all loud and vivid-sounding, with a fine balance of ambience and clarity (and this makes a particular difference to the second-album material - Cowboys is a speaker-blaster!). Elsewhere, Mysterons and Strangers have extended codas; Half Day Closing (with all its vocal processing intact) ends with a strange `Liberty Bell'-like sample (!); most importantly, ... Read More:

Last Night

CD-Charts > Music > Electronica
by: Moby

Release Date May 12, 2008
Maybe I waited to long for this album, maybe I expected greater things, maybe it will grow on me after a few more listens. I hope so, Moby is a very talented man and whilst a few tracks were nearly up there in his former league , most of the time I was left wondering "Haven't I heard this before?"

Supernature

CD-Charts > Music > Electronica
by: Goldfrapp

Release Date August 22, 2005
Ooh La La. 10/10
Lovely 2 C U. 10/10
Ride a White Horse. 10/10
You Never Know. 9/10
Let It Take You. 7/10
Fly Me Away. 10/10
Slide In. 9.5/10
Koko. 8/10
Satin Chic. 9.5/10
Time Out From the World. 9/10
Number 1. 9/10

This album at 11 tracks long, 43 minutes, is extremely short, could've been longer but the musical quality of this album is astonishing, perfectly flawless dance music. Though beware of "Time Out From the World" and "Let It Take You" because they are nothing like the rest of the album, "Time Out From the World" is the better of the 2.

OVERALL GRADE: 10/10!

Moon Safari

CD-Charts > Music > Electronica
by: Air

Release Date January 19, 1998
A great album. a worthy buy. This album has one of my top 10 fav tracks of all time "All I Need". All I Need has great sounds and is very simple format but carries accross a great feeling.

The last review a little harsh... if you like easy going ambient french sounds and you have familurised yourself with Airs previous work then you wont be bored. I like this album and have it on CD and vinyl.

I haven't heard the whole album but I just want to say that Live with Me with Terry Callier is the sexiest record EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It even beats Night Nurse by Gregory Issacs and that's saying something!
