Kid A

CD-Charts > Music > Indie
by: Radiohead

Release Date October 02, 2000
A five star masterpiece? Somebody please, please, please, tell me why this CD isn't exactly what is sounds like, which is nothing more than good old Thom warbling his falsetto meaningless lyrics over aimless electronic noodling. It's drivel !!!!!

Supernature

CD-Charts > Music > Indie
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!

10 (+ 3 Bonus Tracks)

CD-Charts > Music > Indie
by: Pearl Jam

Release Date December 09, 2002
I've known of Pearl Jam for many years, but have only heard Vitalogy previously which is OK without any real stand-out tracks, plus the iconic 'Alive' from this album. However, having read the recommendations in Amazon I decided to take a punt and after only one listen I'm really glad that I did. It sounds fresh with great vocals and heavy guitars: classic rock and miles better than the drivel played on the readily-available channels. Chalk one up for the oldies!

Object 47

CD-Charts > Music > Indie
by: Wire

Release Date July 15, 2008
I absolutely hated this when I first heard it. Really, the other recent output from wasn't anything to get overly excited about, but Object 47 just bored the crap out of me on first listen, but after a few listens I warmed to it somewhat.

Opener, "One of Us," stands as one of the better tracks on the album, but that is saying very little about the track itself. Catchy, and with a somewhat danceable beat, but lacking any real momentum or drive.

None of the rest of the album is drastically different. One especially regular aspect is the mild distortion on the guitars. I'm not a fuzz hater at all (hey, I love Isn't Anything), but this effect gets slightly irritating after a few tracks.

Again, the material isn't BAD at all; just ... Read More:

The Very Best Of The Jam

CD-Charts > Music > Indie
by: The Jam

Release Date June 18, 1999
Whatever people tell me about the ramones: i always say that these guys defined punk music. Still today The Jam is a classic band that will always have a place in my album collection. This CD however is overdoing everything. Punk rock albums are usually very short and having to listen to 20 songs that do all sound extremely simmilar can get tedious. More than this I believe that punk bands very designed for live performances: they had a great attitude to live acts which made them amazing to listen to. The CD takes the heart out of this genre and for that i mark it down. Also there are a few songs could have done without.
81/100

Origin of Symmetry

CD-Charts > Music > Indie
by: Muse

Release Date August 27, 2003
Are you a Muse Fan? If you're thinking of buying this album then you are either a Muse fanatic already, or you will be very soon, and if you haven't heard any of these songs already then I envy you - you are in for one crazy audio thrill-ride.
What's so great about this album is it's originality - it takes our usual idea of what rock music is and turns it on its head, electrocutes it, sticks it in a blender and then stuffs it down your throat, much to your masochistic glee. The music is dark, vicious and incredibly addictive, and by the time you've heard Bliss, with its ethereal arpeggios and super high voltage riffs, you will be hooked to the end. It's super badass.
Pretty much every song is unbelievable in its own right. Muse pull no stops when it ... Read More:

Meteora

CD-Charts > Music > Indie
by: Linkin Park

Release Date March 24, 2003
I hadn't heard of Linkin park until I heard "minutes to midnight" which I thought was an excellent and diverse album; however I got this last weekend and since then have had it blaring in my car constantly. As some of the other reviewers have said, it's really rock, with rap and metal elements, but just very very well done.

"from the inside" and "breaking the habit" are excellent tracks, but the highlight is "Numb", very in the same mould as "What I've done" from the later album, but if anything a sharper track, tighter backing with nicely done, understated scratches that are actually used as another instrument rather than just thrown over the top, and a truly awesome, angry chorus with the tagline "All I want to do, is to be more like me - and be less like you!"
