true. i would have never listened to that 15 years ago, but now that I'm approaching retirement I'm all for melody & opera vocals.

I was really impressed when i watched this interview ... what an incredibly humble, soft-spoken man and yet so serious about what he is doing. The way he speaks about THE FUNK, it's like a metaphysical thing. And you can hear it in his music too, there's none of that semi-ironic 80s bs ... this is s...

@dlg and the rest: some good calls! candlemass is obviously a close contender but warning has more emotional depth imo.

lame.

chromeo = tongue-in-cheek hipster copy of some music i really really love.
i would forgive them if their songs were better, but beyond all the right/cool signifiers and the great production there's not much that leaves an impression.

5. and they count as one.

range life is a beautiful song.
i always thought he said "stone temple pilots .. they're arrogant bastards". when i finally found out it's really "elegant bachelors" i liked it a lot less.

just an addition:

and kickback if they count as metal.

simon reynolds is cool but he's blurring the main point of that older article: for frere-jones it is all about syncopation vs. 4/4 beats. "hip hop is dead" = it lost its distinct sound in favor of some sort of club music crossover. which doesn't make as nice a headline of course.
