GREG JOHNSTON - Los Angeles, USA
M85- Saturdays=Youth. This is what you get when you mix Cocteau Twins, Kate
Bush, New Order and a host of other 80's influences...and somehow it seems
fresh.
RYAN ADAMS & THE CARDINALS- Cardinology. You either love him or hate him.
But you can't deny the boy can write songs and damn good ones.
BLACK KEYS- Attack & Release. They're from Akron, Ohio and I grew up near
there. It's depressing...and these guys brighten up the rubber soaked
skies.
NICK CAVE & THE BAD SEEDS- Dig!! Lazaruz Dig!!. Perfect! My fav of the year!
At 51, Nick Cave gives the music world a kick in the ass and I like it.
BLACK MOUNTAIN- In The Future. These Canadians churn out some great
psychedelic grog. Metal, folk, prog., when it's hard to define...it's got
to be good.
ELBOW- The Seldom Seen Kid. Delicate, beautiful, understated alt
rock....depressingly uplifting.
MY MORNING JACKET- Evil Urges. I didn't know what to make of this the first
time I heard it and I still don't. A sign of a great record. Plus they put
on one hell of a live show. 3 hours and no opening act, and they pull it
off.
METALLICA- Death Magnetic. Finally Metallica comes to their senses and
writes songs that run over 6 minutes in length. They won't get played on
the radio and that's the way it should be.
THE KILLS- Midnight Boom. Catchy dirty minimalist pop rock. The stuff that
heroin addicted models love...and so do I!
BRITISH SEA PATROL- Do You Like Rock Music? I do.
FLOGGING MOLLY- Float. Good Old LA Celtic Punk. The best band to raise a
pint of Guinness! Plus the lead singer was in the 80's metal band Fastway
(w/ Motorhead guitarist Fast Eddy)! Now he's bald and angry.
MELVINS- Nude With Boots. Still giving the middle finger to the world with
super sludge metal and obscure noise played so tightly they almost sound
mainstream. A few of the riffs in these songs would make Jimmy Page
jealous.
REDISCOVERY OF THE YEAR- LINK WRAY- Three Way Shack. Please go out and buy
this. It's American roots, blues, country, rock and it's damn good.
Recorded in the 70's.
BEST CONCERT- NICK CAVE & THE BAD SEEDS AT THE HOLLYWOOD BOWL!
The man was insane...running around the stage, playing guitar, piano and
whatever he could get his hands on. All while laying his vocal chords on
the line. And he's doing it all with his shirt undone past his chest with a
fu manchu and hair bordering on a mullet! That's punk rock!
