Quello che non sapete è che quando certe cose si decidono di fare su più blog a volte mettersi d'accordo è complicato (e non ci si mette) altre è immediato, altre ancora è immediato ma poi ci si maledice per avere detto "sì". L'idea era di proporre la versione di ognuno de "le canzoni degli anni 902" quelle che ci sono piaciute di più (quindi dal gusto personale imprescindibile) riprendendo il listone di NME . Con una differenza NME ha listato 100 canzoni, l'idea di Kekko (e troverete un post analogo oggi sia su Bastonate che [...]

In what seems like the 100th award (deserved though!) given this year to her, musician PJ Harvey has won an Ivor Novello for Album of the Year. Harvey's Let England Shake album has won countless awards, including the Mercury Prize, Mojo's Album of the Year, NME's Album of the Year and many others.

PJ Harvey 's critically-acclaimed record Let England Shake has been heralded once more, winning an Ivor Novello award this evening. The album was awarded an Ivor Novello accolade for Album of the Year at today's ceremony taking place in Central London. Other nominees in the category included Adele ( for her album 21 ) and Kate Bush (for 5 0 Words For Snow ).
Que PJ Harvey volvió a triunfar con el grandísimo Let England Shake es algo innegable, y de hecho la artista británica no sólo se llevé gran parte de los números uno de publicaciones de renombre en 2011, sino que tuvo que recoger algunos galardones como el Uncut 2011 o el Mercury Prize 2011 . Algo que nos apenó leer fue que podría pasar bastante tiempo en sacar un nuevo trabajo, aunque no es algo necesariamente cierto y de hecho no sólo de discos de estudio viven los artistas. Después de saber [...]

GHOST iN SATURN? is a darkly spectral concoction wrought from the minds of French artists Guillaume Asseline (aka Moon Pilot) and Malika Nid El Mourid. With inspiration drawn from Patti Smith, Unkle, PJ Harvey, and Serge Gainsbourg, these musical astronomers chart a new course through the outer reaches of the musical solar system. Malika and [...]

No other music festival bares influence on Lollapalooza more than the Pitchfork Music Festival . Both are held in Chicago, less than a month apart from one another. And because of this, the festival organizers have inacted a "radius clause" which I've mentioned on here time and time again, that states that musical acts that play within a certain mile radius in a certain time span before and after Lollapalooza's scheduled dates cannot play there. All this usually means is that any act playing Pitchfork cannot play Lolla and vice versa. So, who [...]

Άργησα αλλά τα κατάφερα... Επιτέλους, το some beans μπορεί να συνεχίσει τη ζωή του και ν'ακούσει καινούριους δίσκους (αν κι εγώ έλεγα στον mr.grieves να βάλει ό,τι θέλει, αλλά ο αυτιστικός Αιγόκερως που τόσο επιμελώς κρύβει τον εμπόδιζε) και όλοι εσείς εκεί έξω να σταματήσετε να αναρωτιέστε πού χάθηκα εγώ και η λίστα μου και να κοιμηθείτε ήσυχοι το βράδυ. 40.

«Ακόμα με τις λίστες ασχολείστε; Φεβρουάριος έφτασε!» Αφού τα είπαμε, στο some beans το αγαπημένο μας σύνθημα είναι το «φέεεετααα»! Έτσι και αλλιώς τελείωσε ένας Ιανουάριος με λίγες ειδήσεις και ακόμα λιγότερες σημαντικές κυκλοφορίες οπότε δεν χάσατε πάρα πολλά. Και γιατί να βιαστούμε άλλωστε; Ας αφήσουμε στην άκρη τα αυτιστικά μας που μας επιβάλλουν να είμαστε πάντα στην ώρα μας (αλήθεια από πότε καθιερώθηκε αυτή η ώρα;) και επίκαιροι και ας απολαύσουμε 40 από εμένα και 40 από την uptight (σύντομα κοντά σας) επιλογές από υπέροχους δίσκους. Η καλή μουσική άλλωστε είναι πάντα επίκαιρη. [...]
These videos deftly match Harvey's exploration of England's wartime past with artfully filmed images of its present. On my trip to England in March 2011, PJ Harvey's recently-released Let England Shake was my most frequent soundtrack. Now, basing listening choices on region-specificity can feel overly contrived and a little corny; that is, making a point of listening to Kanye West in Chicago or Sonic Youth in New York is simply trying too hard, L.A. Woman in L.A. is way too on-the-nose, etc. But Harvey's album had two qualities that made it a...
Filed under: News , Exclusive , The Hit List Wire Image | bauergriffinonline.com In January 1992, Nirvana 's 'Nevermind' album toppled a four-week holiday-season reign by Michael Jackson 's 'Dangerous' atop the Billboard 200 sales chart. The Alternative Revolution had stormed the barricades. Grunge, goth, pop-punk, industrial and electronica suddenly all came together to a degree, as outsider acts from outsider genres broke through to the mainstream in [...]
