Alors Regarde - Patrick Bruel

Advantages: A different and new style of music
Disadvantages: Not all tracks suitable for everyone's likes

...The third of Patrick Wolf's albums, The Magic Position is an enchanting and eclectic mixture of musical tracks with a track to suit virtually anybody's taste. Patrick Wolf plays a wide variety of instruments and this is reflected in the huge variation of sounds in the tracks. As with most albums, some songs are better than others and stand out above the rest. The title song 'The Magic Position' is perhaps the most catchy of them all and is the most "pop-like" of all the songs - bound to be enjoyed by anyone and everyone. Other favourite songs of mine include Bluebells, an upbeat yet sultry song with powerful lyrics, Overture- an entertaining mix of modern electric sounds with a classical influence- and Accident and Emergency - another pop/electronic classic. I am new to Patrick Wolf's music and was first drawn to it after hearing... Read review

...C'est en Septembre 2000, que six musiciens, provenant de diverses formations métal de la région Rhône-Alpes (Swarm, Season, Révérence, Neurotic Pain) se regroupent pour former Aquilon. A cette période, Aquilon se compose d'Alexandre (chant, clavier), Anne (chant, claviers), Christophe (guitare), Sébastien (guitare), Jérôme (basse) et de Jeremy (batterie).

Pendant un an, le groupe donne alors différents concerts, partageant l'affiche avec divers groupes de renommée nationale tels que Agressor, Rain etc.… Durant l'année 2003, le répertoire du groupe s'étoffe et les dates de concert s'enchaînent, Festival Metal Attack, Nuclear Festival 8 aux cotés de Yattering, Gojira, Furia etc. Le MCD « Les ombres de quatre murs » produit professionnellement...

...Filter's second LP, Title of Record is leagues ahead of its predecessor, Short Bus. Robert Patrick even manages to craft an irresistible hook sometimes ("The Best Things"). As stated in the title of this review, Filter frontman Robert Patrick displays some very powerful emotion on this album. There's a lot of cathartic screaming on tracks like "It's Gonna Kill Me," while wearing his heart on his sleeve on "Take a Picture" and "Miss Blue." The latter track dabbles in neo-psychadelia and traces of the Beatles can be heard. One of the album's stand-outs is "I'm Not the Only One," for which Patrick layed the vocals after his then girlfriend dumped him on the phone. He then punched a hole in his wall, causing serious injury to his hand, rewrote the lyrics, and sung them. Real, honest pain shines through here. It begins slow and wistful... Read review
