DEPRESSION ALBUMS
OF THE YEAR 2005 BEST ALBUMS NAJBOLJI ALBUMI
01_Benjamin Biolay_A L'origine_EMI
Ismejan od kritike posle albuma "Home" i "prokazan" zbog braka sa Kjarom Mastrojani, Benžaman Biole odgovara "dušebrižnicima" na jedini mogući način – "koliko me ne zanima šta mislite."
Ovo je ploča koja nadahnjuje, ispunjava i podstiče. Radost zbog rođenja deteta, razočaranje zbog napuštanja prijatelja, porodica kao smisao života i muzika u slavu života.
KLJUČNE PESME: A L'ORIGINE, COURS!, GROUND ZERO BAR
01_My Morning Jacket_Z_ATO/RCA
Brutalno iskreno, potresno i moćno. Kao da na transfuziju uzimate plutonijum. A opet tako lično, "šareno", direktno i zabavno...
SF-epik u sudaru sa prirodom i samoćom i Jim James kao "karika koja povezuje" Neila Younga, Ozzyja i Davida Byrna. Reverb možda jeste "so eighties" ali najzad da se neko "poigra" dobrim stvarima iz te decenije i da ih učini "vanvremenskim". Cosmic American Music.
KLJUČNE PESME: DONDANTE, LAY LOW, ANYTIME
02_Okkervil River_Black Sheep Boy/Black Sheep Boy Appendix_Jagjaguwar
"Black Sheep Boy" je odgovor novog milenijuma na Tweedyjev "Beeing There". Odgovor koji je duboko promišljen, melodičan, iskren, ličan i direktan. Dok se smenjuju pop dragulji, honky-tonk minijature, "patos" i introspekcije, solaže na lap steel gitari, usnoj harmonici ili trubi, nespremni smo na katarzično finale koje nas očekuje - osmominutnu monumentalnu "So Come Back, I Am Waiting" i "prolog" u obliku "A Glow". Odavno niko svoje "ludilo" nije ovako hrabro i direktno izneo u javnost.
KLJUČNE PESME: SO COME BACK I'M WAITING, STONE, A GLOW
03_Antony and the Johnsons_I Am a Bird Now_Secretly Canadian
Retko se dešava da jedan umetnik svojom pojavom, posebnošću, talentom i karakterom toliko ujedini stavove totalno različitih ljudi, kao što se to desilo Antonyju u poslednjih nekoliko meseci. Iako je prvi solo album zvanično objavio još 2000. godine, 4 godine kasnije doživeo je pravu afirmaciju. Tokom
2005. recenzije novog albuma I'm A Bird Now kretale su se od superlativa do egzaltacije (to "stanje" nije zaobišlo ni UNCUT i MOJO), a čini se da Antony još nije napisao svoje najbolje pesme i da još uvek napreduje i kao muzičar i kao "performer".
KLJUČNE PESME: HOPE THERE IS SOMEONE, SPIRALLING,
YOU ARE MY SISTER
04_Broken Social Scene_Broken Social Scene_Arts & Crafts/City Slang
Posle skoro tri godine rada, čestih promene koncepcije, broja pesama, aranžmana, filosofije ... kanadski "wild bunch" još jednom napravio je autentično remek delo. Album Broken Social Scene muzička je enciklopedija sa direktnim citatima idola i posvetama prijateljima - u slavu života i ljubavi. Čist eskapizam i razlog za život.
KLJUČNE PESME: SHORELINE (7/4),
WINDSURFING NATION, SUPERCONNECTED
05_Damon & Naomi_The Blue Earth_20/20/20
U godini u kojoj Luna i definitivno prestaje sa radom, malo je radosnih stvari ostalo za sve fanove Galaxie 500. Možda samo jedna velika i epska ploča Damon & Naomi? Album "The Earth Is Blue" ima sve odlike remek dela. “Svemirski pop” u kombinaciji sa poezijom/vinjetama o ljudima, gradovima i osećanjima, sve prekrasno aranžirano i pojačano genijalnim psihodeličnim gitarskim deonicama Michio Kuriharae iz sastava Ghost (nezvaničnim trećim članom benda).
KLJUČNE PESME: THE ROBOT SPEAKS, HOUSE OF GLASS, A SECOND LIFE
06_Laura Cantrell_Humming By The The Flowered Vine_Matador
Treći studijski album u karijeri radijskog DJ-a i Pilove muze Lore Kantrel i još jedan "popdepresivni" klasik. U jednoj recenziji ovog albuma naišao sam na izraz "bittersweet pop" i zaista nije lepo od autora što stvari ne zove pravim imenom :). 39 minuta vaše pažnje za povratak u vreme hrabrih, iskrenih i slobodnih ljudi.
KLJUČNE PESME: KHAKI & CORDUROY, LETTER,
BEES
07_Low_The Great Destroyer_Sub Pop
Jedan kupac "The Great Destroyer" albuma na sajtu amazon.com napisao je sledeće: "This is a terrible Cd. I can't believe I wasted money on it. All hype and no substance. A perfect CD if your contemplating suicide and you need something to push you over the edge. Don't waste your time." I sada, kao, neko treba da odoli ovakvom pozivu i ne kupi album!?
KLJUČNE PESME: SILVER RIDER, CUE THE STRINGS, WHEN I GO DEAF
08_The Decemberists_Picaresque_KRS
Najbolja ploča u karijeri Colina Meloya i ulaznica za "Major League." Prepustite se maštanju uz priče o princezama, špijunima, samoubistvima, duhovima, političarima, kanibalima i (ne)slavnim fudbalskim karijerama.
KLJUČNE PESME: THE ENGINE DRIVER, THE SPORTING LIFE, WE BOTH GO DOWN TOGETHER
09_Kathleen Edwards_Back To Me_Zoe/Rounder/Maple
Savršen osećaj za pop pesmu, drskost u neograničenim količinama, flertovanje i senzualnost. Kao najbolji "prvi dejt" koji se nikada neće desiti.
KLJUČNE PESME: WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?, AWAY, PINK EMERSON RADIO
10_Queens Of The Stone Age_Lullabies To Paralyze_Interscope
Hard rok himne, psihodelija, šamanizam i čist seks. Josh Homme kao “postmodernistička” kombinacija Jima Morrisona i Roberta Planta.
KLJUČNE PESME: "YOU GOT A KILLER SCENE THERE, MAN", LONG SLOW GOODBYE, I NEVER CAME
