Foo Fighters: Another Round
"it makes things scary again. You do something that you've never done" (Dave Grohl) "Oft sind die leisen Songs nur handzahmes Geschrammel ohne viel Nährwert." (Oliver Ding/www.plattentests.de) "einem dann doch eher mittelmäßigen zu hoch gelobten, akustischem Nachschlag" (www.allschools.de)
"Rain come and thrown me out,  
Sinking deep below"

The Everly Brothers: Crying in the Rain
"Noch immer singen die zwei wie junge Götter, auf das sich einem die Nackenhaare kräuseln." (Tom Hospelt)  "es ist einfach nicht ehrlich und echt." (Jon Anderson) "eloquent Melody, which rises like a sob that refuses to be stifled" (Ken Emerson - "Always Magic in the Air")
"If I wait for stormy skies
You won't know the rain from the tears in my eyes"

Ursula Rucker: Damned if I do

"cold words fall hard and empty"

Darkstar: Deadness
"Ihre melancholischen Kompositionen brodeln und schimmern, brummen und zirpen"(Klaus Buchholz/www.thegap.at) "romantic dread" (www.dustedmagazine.com)  "gibt...  eine Stahl-zerschneidende Emotionalität und bleibt gleichzeitig unwirklich und distanziert." (Numinos/www.groove.de)
"I don't understand"

Bruce Springsteen: Drive all Night
"Er saß in der Narrenfalle. Müde war er auch" (Christoph Dieckmann) "der ganze sozialromantische Kitsch schlägt in unfreiwillige Parodie um" (Franz Schöler) "buried on the fourth side of Springsteen’s only double album of studio material" (Eric Mack/Attac Zone Radio)
"Through the wind, through the rain, the snow, the wind, the rain
You've got, you've got my, my love heart and soul"

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds: Far from me
"erstaunlich metaphernarm und blutlos, um nicht zu sagen blutleer" (Thomas Mießgang) "graceful melancholy romanticism" (Tim Lee/www.musicomh.com) "I frankly don't like albums that force you to like them." (George Starostin's Music Reviews)
"I keep hearing that you're doing your best"

The Red Krayola: Pessimisty
"Wissen um all die schweren Zeichen, Dissonanzen und Dekonstruktionsstrategien" (Thomas Mießgang) "In an extremely positive review from Pitchfork Media, critic Alex Lindhardt wrote "It's a band that has no idea how to play its instruments." (forum.funkysouls.com) "like a verse against the long black night" (Rian Murphy on Cover)
"I want a weaker mind on
I want a weaker mind on
I want a weaker mind on"

Dominique A: Pour qui je me prends
"schwere Elegien, monoton, hypnotisch und sechs Minuten lang"  (Chr. Kortmann)  "Französische Musik passt mit ihren sentimentalen Texten und minimalistischen Tönen wie keine Zweite zu Winterdepression und Liebeskummer."  (Ines Defoe/Hamburger Abendblatt)  "gerät auch mal etwas aus der Spur, ins Schlingern“ (D.A.)
"c'est parfois dur d'avaler l'injure"

Oi Va Voi: Refugee
"Amalgam aus Fröhlichkeit und Trauer" (Daniel Bax) "that awkward moment when there are pictures of Alice in this video, when KT Tunstall is the one singing this song..." (one1way1street on Youtube) "No where. I've never blogged about Oi Va Voi. sigh." (Teruah-JewishMusic)

Just what it is you have to lose"

Sigur Rós: unitled 2 (Fyrsta)
