( 2007 | 2008 | 2009 | 2010 ) La cât de mult praf s-o acumulat pe aici, îmi închipui că nu vă mai așteptați să apară postul ăsta. Eh, cred că oricât aș lasa blogul să crească buruieni pe el, la topu ăsta n-aș renunța. Nu pot să vă spun exact de ce nu am scris mai des, am o grămadă de foi și foicele ce vroiau să devină posturi. Efectiv n-am avut tragere de inimă. Dar e una din rezoluțiile anului nou. Serios. Trebuie, nu de alta, da mi-i un [...]

Contrary to what you may think, I did not forget about this little place. And I do genuinely feel bad for not dropping by more often with a song and a (good) word, cause the music is still with me every single day. And very good coffee too, lately I've been enjoying autumn a lot these past few days. It finally has that colour and air I love so much about it. And the company of nice new people. And that's always good, right? I won't blab too much tonight. I will try, [...]
I know you're not used to me posting such music around here, but I'm thinking at this point (of being such into an album) it's a must. Today is my 3rd day starting with Mastodon 's new album, The Hunter , and I'm liking it more and more with each listening. I'm not much into heavy riffs and metal in general these past few years (I used to listen to quite a lot of this music when I was in high school) but from time to time I come across an album [...]
Every time I listen to or accidentally hear any of the songs from The National 's Sad Songs For Dirty Lovers or Alligator I have this one particular day in my mind. It was last September, the 27th to be more precise, and I had all day to myself in a basically unknown city. I've been to Budapest several times, but really, there's always things to see. And even though I would have loved it if I were there with a good friend or a significant [...]
So, I was tagged by Octavian to answer to some music-related questions. Feels like an interview ^.^ Let's see... 1. Name a band or an artist you can't believe you liked when you were younger. I used to listen to a lot of Pasarea Colibri when I was in my early teens. It's this Romanian folk band that I grew to dislike more and more with the passing of time. 2. Name a band or an artist you hated when you were younger and you now love. [...]
Al doilea album Other Lives , Tamer Animals , era să treacă neobservat pe lângă urechile mele. Noroc că am dat peste video-ul primului single , For 12 , de care m-am îndrăgostit la prima audiție/vizionare. Cu un debut bun în 2009, trebuia să văd cum continuă americanii. Chair dacă e înregistrat și produs de ei, în micul lor studio, Tamer Animals e un album complex din toate punctele de vedere. E o îmbinare perfect armonioasă a unei mulditudini de instrumente, [...]
Mi-ar plăcea să vă pot povesti despre cum o fost la Mono . O să încerc chiar, dar mare lucru sigur nu o să iasă. De când am auzit că japonezii vin la Cluj am început să mă agit și entuziasmez. În primul rând pentru că nu mă așteptam deloc, iar apoi pentru că se anunța lume faină de departe cu ocazia concertului, deci sigur ieșea ceva frumos. Vineri - 22 iulie - cu companie foarte mișto, o porneam spre Euphoria Music Hall. Pentru prima dată aici, locul mi-o dat un sentiment "meh" (© Cronco ). [...]
This one has been my "go to bed" and "wake up" song in the past few days. Ok, about a week. I almost missed the fact that Other Lives released a new album this year, but fortunately this song hit me from thin air (ok, tumblr, not quite thin air) and I didn't missed one quite good an album. Imagine the darks from the skull In a night without sleep, vibration comes, first suit I had in months without feet Spouting hymns [...]
This is serious. Yes, I've had obsessions, but not like this one; not in a long, long time. This is one of those songs I'm afraid to listen to. Cause I won't get it out of my head once I start to. And it's like that: whenever I hit play, it ends up on repeat; or I keep hitting replay on youtube. I've already posted it pretty much everywhere on the internet (except for here). And I love everything about the song: the music, the voice (oh, Jack ♥), the actual lyrics. But what really gets to me is [...]
![Doves – Lost Souls [2000]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3614338_lg.jpg)
Habar n-am avut de Doves până acum 2 ani când Firesuite o apărut într-un episod din House și mi-o rămas bine în minte. Așa că m-am pus să ascult tot albumul de pe care e. Lost Souls e unul din albumele alea, de care poți zice cu siguranță din prima că o să îți placă tot mai mult după fiecare acultare. Începe foarte bine cu Firesuite , care de fiecare dată când pornesc albumul îmi dă senzația că o fost pusă [...]
The actual quality of a good show is something I measure in time. I mean, the really good ones, stick with me with tiny impressions on the long run. For example, I remember exactly the type of chills and that particular feeling I got when I heard God Is an Astronaut 's Fragile live, about 3 months ago. Hell, I still get those chills every time I listen to the song. ( Fragile by God Is [...]
Another one of those bands that I've been ignoring for I have o idea what reasons, are The Mountain Goats . Well, basically it's the project of John Darnielle , but he has several other people around him. My first two obsessions - Dinu Lipatti's Bones and Broom People are provided by the The Sunset Tree album. Such honest and simple music, in spite of the complicated subjects it deals with (death, domestic violence, drugs and alcohol). Simply beautiful. [...]
I always, with no exception, get chills from this song. Especially in the first minute, before and right at the time the vocals start. Storm.. in the morning light I feel No more can I say Frozen to myself I got nobody on my side And surely that ain't right ( Roads by Portishead ) photo by Aleksandra Filed under: [...]
Săptămâna trecută am prmit, la schimb să zicem, The Winston Jazz Routine . Din nume, mă așteptam la ceva chestii dark, dubioase și agitate.Ei bine, sunt undeva la polul opus. Sospiri e un album foarte calm și oarecum fragil. Și plin de emoție, pentru că There are childhood friends and new acquaintances; family members young and elderly, dead and alive; grandfathers, mothers, and younger brothers; homeless pianists, orchestra conductors, students in high school and college, married church members and librarians. Telling the whole tale [...]
This song - especially this particular version - crawls somewhere deep inside me and blooms. Like those weird lung-flowers Vian was writing about. I, I blame you, I blame you For all of those things I've been through Don't feel bad, not a pang It's my neck around which you hang Like a chain or a tag I flinch and you fall through the cracks To the sea and all it bears The secrets that I should've [...]
You repress and repress memories, but it's on day to day moments when they hit you. For instance, when you listen to a song and - even if you heard it before, two or three times - the lyrics hit you. And then you remember that night when you sat in the park, saying nothing, in a perfectly comfortable and not at all awkward silence. In perfect darkness. And it's these moments you miss the most, above the kisses and all the kinky stuff. Compass points out in all directions. From this moment [...]
Being a band with an amazing debut must be very tricky. Especially if that debut came naturally out of you, from an ache, a rage, depression, or something of this sort. Like it was with Bon Iver . I bet every fan of Justin's incredibly beautiful For Emma, Forever Ago , has this tiny fear that the new album - Bon Iver, Bon Iver - won't have the same magic and emotional strength. I'm listening to this new one for the [...]
I will be here I've been waiting for this event for a few months, ever since I knew it's gonna happen. I have kept my calm (well, not quite in the past few days) but now I'm anxious as hell and I simply cannot wait for tonight. I've said this before, I'm stressing it again: try to see these guys live, they are awesome! Just to make an idea, a few days ago in Poland Filed [...]
I was already in love with this song, but this version is so much more! The energy the guys put into singing it - especially Cerdic in the chorus, when he unleashes his voice -, I just can't get enough of it! Filed under: cherry treats , live , musics , video
