Olá! Well, sei que isso virou uma modinha e certamente está caindo na boca do povão do Last.Fm, mas, como ADORO postagens ENOOOORMES, irei fazer um TOP 5 para não ficar fora dessa. Não vai ser enorme, pois, é apenas um TOP 5.
2011 foi um ano incrível na música, mas... Eu esperei mais. Infelizmente deixou a desejar como nos últimos anos. Espero que 2012 seja um ano melhor, afinal, temos a volta de grandes cantores/bandas.
Não se esqueça de comentar no final, agradeço.

Prontos? Vamos lá.

5. Björk - Biophilia
Inovador. Diferente. Esses são os adjetivos usados para este maravilhoso album da nossa diva. O album é leve em si, não possui faixas pesadas, como nos seus últimos albums. (Volta). Mas, Björk sempre deixou uma 'surpresa' ao final de cada música. Quem já ouviu, deve saber dessas surpresas... Existentes em faixas como Crystalline e Mutual Core. Poderia ser melhor, de longe não é o melhor album dela. …

I would love to do another album review of another amazing artists who crowned my year in all it's sadness, but Ceremonials really gave me the light. With Organ chords, overdubbing voices in choir, art déco spectral gingers, ritualistic drums, ghost grandmothers, devils, Virginia Woolf and Out of body experiences, Ceremonials deserves the name it has. I am a bit fond of choirs and layered vocals, as well as dark themes and organs. A good thing about this album is that we won't hear in any song a "Florence Welch Vocal Extension take away show", she mix herself with the support vocals, and even with some solos, it never comes to take over all the sound.

Ceremonials

1-Only If for a Night:
It begins verry softly with harps and Florence's voice telling about her grandmother. Then, it starts for real. "And i heard your voice, as clear as day. …

Repudiava ela, acreditem! Mas depois que descobri que ela era Little Monster, parece que meus ouvidos se adaptaram a ela lol. O CD é de longe o melhor dela, simplesmente por ela ter deixado aquela fase wannabe rock e mergulhou no pop.

Some Hallowe'en playlist introduced me to Found Love in a Graveyard by Veronica Falls, so that seems as good a place as any to kick off the November blog. Alas, it probably is the best track on album Veronica Falls, but what a track it is: like old-school Interpol laced with real venom during the verses, and old-school Lush for the chorus. Album closer Come On Over is a bit of alright too. I can't put my finger on a particular band (probably because of the restraining order), but it definitely brings to mind early to mid 90s mark and lard graveyard shift indie, and I can only imagine how good it must be live.

Another new acquisition at the start of the month was Florence + the Machine's Ceremonials. Not sure if the title is meant to sound like an euphemism (as in, "ooh, I've got a right rash on my Ceremonials"), but the albums a pretty joyless affair. Admitedly I was a latecomer to début Lungs, but it had the right balance between heart and bluster. …
