30Hz Dirge - Stendecade

2006-02-04 / Chris / Reads: 9204

I take 'Appear' - the shortest track in comparison with the others - as an intro. Sound of helicopter, cold passages. 'Bored' - reminds me of Recoil - it's a great advantage, though it not always helps in promotion. There are four tracks on the album that last more than 10...

Lowe... debut of the year 2005, Lowe... the revelation on the synt-pop scene, or wouldn't it be better to call it pop-rock? Lowe... the emotion in the Swedish style. One thing that the CD 'Tenant' cannot be denied is emotionality, both musical and influential. It's hard to write about emotions...

The quintessentials of experimental, indu-electronica music with a pinch of rock are presented on the 1999 double LP "The Fragile" by the Nine Inch Nails. A concept album. Reznor selected bits and pieces from his experience and put them together as a collection of great tracks. I don't know why...

Nine Inch Nails - With Teeth

Nine Inch Nails after the release of their new CD were accused of repeating themselves. Well... the fans may feel disappointed. They have been waiting for a new album for 6 years and it's not a smashing one as they say. We got "the Fragile" in 1999 – the piece...
