Inspiral Carpets — Devil Hopping | DeRank™: 0,00

In an era when Britpop had ousted the scene from bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and various rockers, Inspiral Carpets, along with Charlatans, Stone Roses, Blur, and Oasis, represented the soundtrack of many young lads holed up in their rooms or jumping around in clubs at night. This is perhaps the best work of the "inspired carpets" of Madchester, featuring hits like "Saturn 5" and "Party in the Sky" that get you moving like few others from that time. Ciao. more

Robert Pollard — Not in My Airforce | DeRank™: 0,00

some of my favorite songs (get under it, flat beauty) that illuminated my adolescence.
bare, essential songs, played practically solo but still possessing something epic.

it deserves a deep listen to be fully absorbed, but then it becomes addictive. more

Tobin Sprout — Carnival Boy | DeRank™: 0,00

was released in the same year as Pollard's first solo album, which, along with Sprout, forms the foundational core of Guided by Voices. Setting this project aside temporarily, the two former partners embarked on parallel solo careers that seem to convey the same message: to create milestones, all you need is a cassette recorder, a guitar, and deep inspiration. Just how bulimic has Pollard been (17 albums from '96 to 2011 plus a countless number of side projects with other musicians - ''Boston Stars)? more
