 Songs like Like Eating Glass... genuinely make you think you’ve encountered a rock band, if not innovative, at least not too boring.

 The album’s sound is impeccably clean... driven songs, equally fast riffs, and a passion for Clash, Pixies, and some of the bands from the ’70s Madchester scene unmistakably emerge.

Silent Alarm marks a promising debut by Bloc Party, delivering dynamic rock with pop-punk energy and clear melodic vocals. While not a masterpiece, it offers enjoyable tracks and a fresh sound influenced by 70s and 80s rock.

 'Howling Self' is simply one of the best indie rock songs I’ve recently hummed.

With strong seventies psychedelic rock influences and powerful vocals by Leila, the EP showcases a gutsy, distorted sound that distinguishes them. Though not entirely original, their music offers a compelling preview of their upcoming debut album. Standout track 'Howling Self' earns high praise as a top indie rock song. Listen to The Duke Spirit's Roll Spirit Roll EP now to experience a fresh take on psychedelic indie rock!

 For the first time in the discography of R.E.M., the words that forge Michael Stipe’s songs appear in black and white, squeezed inside a booklet.

 What begins as a transitional record, meant to 'ferry the band'… becomes itself a blazing beacon.

R.E.M.'s 1998 album Up marks a major shift towards experimental rock with electronic influences, born from the absence of drummer Bill Berry. The album is rich in poetic lyricism and a melancholic, metropolitan atmosphere. Though initially challenging, it stands as a small masterpiece and a significant moment in the band's career. Dive into R.E.M.'s groundbreaking album Up and experience their boldest experimental journey yet.

 A perfect Italian production, with nothing to envy compared to the most original and modern ones that stand out in today’s 'foreign' alternative music scene.

 You find yourself thrown from one sound to another with great ease; Indian melodies joined to computerized rhythms, laughs mixed with a penetrating bass.

Methel & Lord's album Pai Nai is praised as a flawless Italian production that competes with international alternative music.

 Xo remains an excellent demonstration of how, based on old ideas, beautiful songs can be created, without advertising for phone companies or destroying hotel rooms.

Elliott Smith's XO album is praised for its beautiful retro sound inspired by classic songwriters like The Beatles and Bob Dylan. Despite its charm, the album's 14 tracks feel lengthy and occasionally repetitive. XO stands out as a refined collection of melodic songs that maintain traditional influences without pretense. Listen to Elliott Smith's XO and explore a beautifully crafted retro album with timeless songwriting.

 The second effort by Craig Nicholls' Aussie Rock Band is full of musical clichés and lacking in ideas.

 The anger, power, and explosiveness that had driven the debut album are missing.

The Vines' second album 'Winning Days' struggles with lack of creativity and borrows heavily from other rock icons. The addition of a rhythm guitarist seems to mask artistic flaws rather than enhance the sound. While a few slower tracks stand out, the album generally lacks the energy and explosiveness of their debut. Production issues and uninspired songwriting leave much to be desired. Discover why The Vines' 'Winning Days' fell short—read the full review and decide for yourself!

 Music to fall into the sweetest of dreams.

 It’s not about detachment but slow hypnosis.
