Well! Neither "The Three Burials" nor the Coen Brothers' film can be considered westerns in the sense we give to the term. One has to stretch the definition to label them as contemporary westerns, but then there are plenty of those. Remakes like "3:10 to Yuma" or "The Assassination of Jesse James" can be defined as westerns, but certainly not the films by Tommy Lee Jones and the Coens, which are made with SUVs and drug trafficking.

Nick Cave doesn't convince me; he's always capitalized on that cursed image which would suit many Australian outsiders much better, who instead are not given much consideration here. But your review (switching to the Spencer Davis Group, fast and rough tracks) is too clever by half not to make me go listen to it with high expectations. Let’s see.

You said it all right in the first paragraph, a playful nature, changes in lineup, a transfusion of commitment towards the ALL (which I really enjoy) and some dives into metal, which is one of the things I remember about this album. For those who want to feast on the best Descendents, there’s the compilation "Somery."

OleEinar is rare in his proposals and suggestions. He has revived a group that, for those who love the genre, is worth listening to and re-listening to. And I must speak in favor of Gary Moore, who is a very good guitarist, as his successful solo albums will demonstrate. He brings a bluesy breeze to this record, which in some parts is really disorienting compared to the folk (after all, the title is already an indication). The Audience, as Ole says, are not folk-oriented but more progressive and somewhat psychodelic. Anyway, I also recommend the reunion album after 25 years, which is really beautiful in some tracks.

comic art from platinum little bourgeois with the bored lover blackdog, see yourself Von Gotha or the always valid Stanton, or Tom of Finland if you're on the other side...

Great advertising space, I haven't heard this album and they're a pleasant band (just like Supergrass were...) as iltrucido says. But that Manara cover is horrible, even the fifty-something bands with a little belly who are in love with '70s progressive don't use it anymore...

a very melancholic record like a Micah P. Hinson wanting to make it in the charts, but with much less grit and personality compared to Micah. To me, it turned out to be very, very boring, especially with that use of the steel guitar and the ethereal female vocals. Some songs are saved by the fact that the syrupy sound is contrasted by angry lyrics, with titles like "Diabolical Tricks for a Whore," "Let Whores Die," "Everything is Shit." It's as if this guy is pissed off... but he can't express it through the music, only through the words.

"House with no door" is not a ballad about loneliness, but about schizophrenia.

Every metalhead worth their salt should know that Randy Rhoads is missing here, who shone on the early albums of Ozzy (namely "Blizzard of Ozz") and is a huge loss. After all, during this time Ozzy was high as a kite and it’s a miracle that today he’s still standing, playing the fool for MTV in the face of snot-nosed kids like starblazer who stubbornly fill this site with reviews and especially crappy comments.

The same person from the movie, after all, if you pay attention to the sheriff when he enters the apartment where Moss was killed (yes, because Moss's only utopian escape happens on the morgue table), sees the air conditioning duct grate just unscrewed, and the "evil" is precisely hidden behind that door, and Bell pretends not to notice and leaves. That is his defeat; he knows he cannot confront this modern and "capitalistic" evil as his father, his uncle, and his grandfather faced the "natural" evil of the Wild West. This current world is not a place for old men.
