Johnny Cash
American V: a hundred highways
Universal 2006

Beltzez jantzitako gizona Rick Rubinen albora gerturatu zen bere azken grabazioak egiteko. Ekimen horren azken alea da honakoa, non Cash gaixo batek Hank Williams, Don Gibson edo Bruce Springsteen bezalakoen moldaketak aurkezten dizkigun. Azken aldian gainera hainbat autobiografia, edizio berri eta komiki argitaratu da musikariaren inguruan. Bere ahots sendoaz gozatzeko aukera berri bat dugu oraingoan, bere azken grabaketek luzatzen digutena. Hunkigarria.
The man in black linked up with Rick Rubin for his last recordings. This is the last offering from the partnership. A sick Cash brings us versions of songs by the likes of Hank Williams, Don Gibson and Bruce Springsteen. Recently we have witnessed the release of biographies, new and re-releases and comics on the musician. Here we have another chance to enjoy the deep strong voice of the man on his last recording. Moving.
Sonic Youth
“Rather Ripped”
Geffen records 2006

Azken urteetan grabatu duten disko onenetarikoa da. Duela gutxi 25 urte bete dute musikaren munduan eta jada ez da taldeko kide Jim O´ Rourke, azken urteetan batu zitzaiena. Horrek ez du alde batera utzi taldearen freskotasun eta indarra hamabi kantu berri hauetan. Ez dira asko luzatu abestietan eta hiru lau minutuko kantuak aurkezten dizkigute, pop doinuetara gerturatuz eta beti bezain gazte izaten jarraitzen dutela erakutsiz. Beti bezain soniko.
The best record they’ve recorded over the last few years. They recently celebrated 25 years in the music biz and band-member for the last while, Jim O’Rourke, is now no longer part of the group. This doesn’t affect the freshness on show in the 12 songs on the record. They don’t drone on in the songs – three to four minutes of pop melodies. They’re as young as ever on this one. As Sonic as ever.
Primal Scream
Riot City Blues
Sony / Bmg 2006
Duela lau urte argitaratu zuen “Evil Heat” Primal Scream-ek. Aurtengo udaran etorri zaigu haren buelta: Riot City Blues. Blues eta rock zikinenera gerturatuz. Ez dute energiarik galdu eta betiko ausardia erakusten dute. Batzuk gogor kritikatu duten diskoa bada ere, Primal Scream-ek berean jarraitzen du eta lotsagabe aurkezten dizkigute beren doinu berriak. Ez da hemen horren gustoko ditugun gaindosi elektronikorik baina ondo pasatzeko diskoa lortu dute eta gure gau mozkorretan alboan izango duguna.
Primal Scream released “Evil Heat” four years ago. This summer sees them back with the follow up: “Riot City Blues.” Dirty blues and rock. They waste no energy and their characteristic daring is strongly present. Even though the record has been lambasted in certain circles, Primal Scream are sticking to their guns and they feel no shame about what they’ve come up with on this record. We don’t get the large doses of electronica that we like so much, but it’s a record we can get off on and no doubt it’ll accompany us on manys a night of drunken debauchery.
Tv On The Radio
Return to Cookie Mountain
4 AD 2006

Lan iluna atera du Tv On The Radio taldeak. Mingarria eta erakargarria aldi berean. Batzutan jasangaitza eta beste batzuetan ezinbestekoa. Hori betiko norabide berritzailean lortu dute, atmosfera eta giro ezberdinak nahastuaz eta batzuetan elektronika eta beste batzuetan rockaren bitartez bideratu duten lana, "I was a lover" edo "Hours" bezalakoekin hasi eta "Wolf like me" bezalakoekin jarraitzen duen diskoan. Udaran egin ez duzun bidai galaktikoa etxeko egongelako sofan egiteko aukera duzu hemen.
The band Tv On The Radio have come up with rather a dark release this time round. Painful yet attractive at the same time. Unbearable at times and essential at others. They’ve hit innovative gold once again with their mixture of different musical atmospheres, sometimes using electronica and sometimes using rock. Songs like “I was a lover” and “Hours start the record off” and “Wolf like me” and company carry it along. The chance to take that intergalactic journey without moving from your sofa this summer.
Munlet
Edición Espacial 2003 - 2006 Recordings
Autoekoizpena

Oraindik ez badituzu ezagutu jada berandu zabiltza. Mendarotik datorren bikoteak bere ibilbidea laburbiltzea erabaki du, azken urteetan beraien
etxeko estudioan grabatu dituzten kantuak gerturatzeko asmoz. Gora teknologia berriak! Munlet lotsagabeak dira elektronika eta rocka nahasterako orduan, Motorheaden "Overkill" moldatzean edo "Monstruo bicéfalo" bezalako kantuak abesterakoan. Haiekin kontaktuan jarri anaina@euskalnet.net helbidean eta lortu honako diskoa. Zure bizilagunak ez daitezela ohartu berandu zabiltzala!
If you hadn’t heard of them yet, well, you’re late. This duo from Mendaro have put together a compilation of the recordings they have carried out over the last few years in their home studio. Long live technology! These shameless hussies mix rock and electronica. They’ve got their hands on Motorhead’s “Overkill” and they let vocal chords rip on “Monstruo Bicéfalo” and the like. If you want to get in touch with them or get your hands on the record, just head to anaina@euskalnet.net. Make sure your neighbours don’t find out you’re late!
Wolfmother
Wolfmother.
Island records.

Australian kokatzen dugun hirukotea. 70. hamarkadako hard rock eta momentu batzuetan heavy rocka berreskuratzen dute. Harrigarria izaten da batzutan hiru kidek osatutako taldeak atera dezakeen zarata, hau da, jende gehiagok osatutako talde-soinua lortzea. Black Sabbath eta Led Zeppelin bezalakoetatik asko edanda, hori da disko honetan batek entzuten duena. Indarra eta energia "Woman" edo "Pyramid" bezalako kantu handiek beteta. Psikodeliari ere ateak irekitzen dizkion talde honek burua astindu eta eskuak altxatzeko musika egiten du, iajaaa!!!
This three-piece comes to us from Australia. 70s hard rock with touches of heavy metal are what they have to offer. It’s amazing just how much noise a three-piece can actually make. It’s like they were a couple more members in the band. They’ve drunk from the fonts of Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath and it certainly comes through on listening to the record. Strength and energy power along big songs like “Woman” and “Pyramid.” They also give psychedelic nods and winks every now and again as well as a great deal of head-shaking and fists in the air. Wwwoooahhhhh!
