Time Out -50th Anniversary (2 CD/1 DVD Legacy Edition)
February 5th, 2012 admin Time Out -50th Anniversary (2 CD/1 DVD Legacy Edition)
- BRUBECK DAVE TIME OUT (LEGACY EDITION 2CD+DVD)
The first million-selling album in jazz history.
1959 was a banner year for jazz, but no album captured the public’s attention like Dave Brubeck’s Time Out. “Take Five,” the surprise radio hit from Time Out, would enter the record books as the first million-selling jazz instrumental single on the Billboard Hot 100, and “Blue Rondo à la Turk” would become an instant classic. This edition marks the 50th anniversary with an unprecedented presentation of music, images, insight and history, including the chance to hear the classic Brubeck Quartet in top form live at Newport, plus a companion DVD offering a fresh take on the making of this pioneering recording.
The experimental meters of Brubeck’s music set Time Out apart from the pack. But the appeal of this album–in 1959 and today–is less in the rules it broke, and more in the sheer sweep and effervescence and pure unadulterated fun of the music. For all his seriousness and ardor, Dave Brubeck had somehow recaptured a sense of childlike wonder in this project. And for that reason, the decades may pass and tastes may change, but it will always be the right time for Time Out.

Neon Bible

- Pop
The second album from Montreal’s Arcade Fire exceeds all expectations. With string and orchestral arrangements by two of the band members, “Neon Bible” is full of both half-assed punk rock mistakes and meticulously orchestrated woodwinds. Processed strings and mandolin. Quiet rumbles and loud rumbles. But mostly just eleven songs that the band thinks are really good.For their second full-length, the Montreal-based seven-or-eight-piece Arcade Fire show themselves capable of Big Rock, as original, and as potentially marquee-topping as TV on the Radio and Sigur Ros. Regardless, the intentional murkiness of these pleasantly anthemic New Wave dirges makes it sound as if the music has already reverberated through a crowded cement stadium. Named after cult author John Kennedy Toole’s first novel, Neon Bible is smart and subtle enough to present itself as a personal discovery for every listener, every word to be pored over by fans (as with those of Tori Amos, Pavement, and Radiohead). Surely, lines like “The sound is not asleep/ It’s moving under my feet” have already been scribbled onto the margins of countless textbooks. Such words are delivered with less intensity this time, but no less import. For vocal influences, lead singer Win Butler seems to have traded his ’80s Bowie in for an ’80s Springsteen, at least on the songs “Antichrist Television Blues” and “Windowsill” (though “Intervention” sounds an awful lot like ’80s era Go-Betweens). The kitchen sink arrangements include the use of an Eastern European orchestra, pipe organ, hurdy gurdy, and a military choir. –Mike McGonigal

Renegades
February 4th, 2012 admin Renegades
Limited Edition Japanese pressing of this album comes housed in a miniature LP sleeve. 2008.If Renegades proves to be the last Rage Against the Machine album to feature singer Zack de la Rocha, who quit the band after nine years, it’s a cool way to go out. Produced by Rick Rubin, Renegades is a salute to the artists who made Rage what they are–or were. While it’s easy to hear Rage’s rap roots in songs from Afrika Bambaataa, EPMD, and Volume 10, it’s more interesting to see their take on rock in its classic and punk forms. Rage capture the raw spirit, if not the quite the intensity, inherent in the MC5 classic “Kick Out the Jams.” A superior second live take appears at the CD’s end, followed by a concert version of Cypress Hill’s “How I Could Just Kill a Man,” with help from B-Real and Sen Dog. Devo’s “Beautiful World” is rendered quietly unrecognizable, while Minor Threat’s “In My Eyes” is given a wonderfully melodic, ultra-aggro treatment. The Rolling Stones’ “Street Fighting Man” takes on a techno vibe that’s unsettling and Bob Dylan’s “Maggie’s Farm” is also effectively modernized. Ultimately, Renegades is a must-have for its song selection, musical execution, and the unhappy fact that it’s likely the ultimate offering from one of rock’s most musically and politically relevant lineups. –Katherine Turman

Since I Left You
February 4th, 2012 admin Since I Left You
Amazing full length debut, now deleted in the U.S., for the Aussie indie/dance act who’ve mixed Badly Drawn Boy & were the first act to get permission from Madonna to sample from her oeuvre (regardless of what you feel about her you have to admit she has The Avalanches are a much-feted six-man crew of sample addicts from Australia whose debut album, Since I Left You, is a bargain-bin vinyl throwback to the Daisy Age. This album is constructed like a mix tape and calculated to tweak the dance floor. Snatches of familiar rhythms bubble up throughout, giving the record a comfortable lived-in feel but also betraying the fact that the group hasn’t dug very far through the crates to source their raw material. There’s little doubt that this kind of sample reconstruction has become standard fare for retrogressive adolescents with precious little musical flair and a mania for collecting records. The Avalanches get full marks for their seamless mixing skills, but otherwise it all feels way too tidy, bristling with its own inventiveness when it should be striving for something that transcends its influences. –Chris Campion
