Slap Chop Rap [bsc j-one]
Muse – The Resistance Muse decide to go Queen and take their stomping, stupendous yet highly addictive spacerock out of this universe. Everything about this album is gargantuan, still, they sort of get away with it. (You know, I’ve always liked that word… ”gargantuan”… so rarely have an opportunity to use it in a sentence.) Score: 8/14 Preview
Pearl Jam – Backspacer Almost 20 years ago, Eddie Vedder sounded urgent and raw. Now he only sounds urgent on one or two songs (The Fixer), and the rest sounds pretty boring. Some rockstars do age, apparently. If you want to stay on top, I’d suggest spending some time Into The Wild. Score: 5/14 Preview
Arctic Monkeys – Humbug Being hyped for some years now, their latest was silently dropped upon us. Different production (Josh Homme), more mature sound, some more great songcrafting from Alex Turner. This album is not for dancefloors and places where red lights indicate that doors are secured though, but for headphones in a dimly lit room. Score: 10/14 Preview
Datarock – Red Norwegian duo evolved from making joke songs about night flights to Uranus and Commodore 64s to creating a clever, descriptive, direct, soundtrack for the noughties-generation. This might sound like it’s less fun then their debut, but it’s quite addictive and quirky enough to keep us busy til the end of the decade. Score: 9/14 Preview
Calvin Harris – Ready For The Weekend Calvin Harris isn’t much of an artist. He’s a producer. He’s good at creating catchy songs for other people (Dizzee Rascal, Kylie Minogue). In his spare time He Created Disco, and now Disco has a follow-up. And logically, Ready For The Weekend is a catchy record at times, but somewhat bland and incoherent too. Score: 7/14 Preview
Rip Jim Carroll. Hij heeft er zelfs een vrijdag voor uitgekozen. Respect!

Jim Carroll (born August 1, 1950 in New York City, died September 11, 2009 in New York City) was an author, poet, autobiographer, and punk musician. Carroll is best known for his 1978 novel The Basketball Diaries, which was made into a movie in 1995 starring Leonardo DiCaprio.

De hype zal niemand ontgaan zijn; eerder deze week werden voor de zoveelste keer de definitieve versies van de Beatles-platen uitgebracht. Dat in de voorgaande zin de zinsnedes “zoveelste keer” en “definitieve” gebroederlijk naast elkaar zijn gestald is geen geweldig inzicht van de schrijver dezes aangezien al velen voor mij zich hebben afgevraagd wanneer het een keer ophoudt met het commercieel uitmelken van de discografie van de, volgens velen, invloedrijkste popgroep ooit.
