anbefalt pop/rock

Anbefalt pop/rock:

klassisk pop/rock, fra mainstream-utgivelser til pop av det noe mer alternative slaget som dessverre så altfor sjeldent slippes til på kommersiell radio

Aimee Mann

Bachelor No 2

"An album of intimate pop songs...her songs concentrate on life gone wrong - but this is timeless stuff." [Q Magazine]

"Tanto Tempo effortlessly bridges the gap between classic Brazilian rhythms and contemporary pop/dance soundscapes...wonderfully capturing the carefree and sensual spirit of walking along the sandy beaches of Rio de Janeiro's Copacabana. Tanto Tempo is as cool as it is hot." [Billboard]

David Gray

White Ladder

"A stately, sophisticated album...Gray combines gentle guitar hooks and effusive string washes with warm, fluent beats on memorable songs..a magnificent accomplishment." [CMJ]

Deacon Blue

Our Town: The Greatest Hits

En samling singler fra skotske Deacon Blue, bandet som på slutten av 80-tallet herjet på de britiske hitlistene med sin blue-eyed-soul-pop ispedd en dæsj west-coast poprock. Musikken er stemningsmettet, til tider med klare assosiasjoner til andre britiske band som f.eks. U2 og Waterboys, men noe mer pop.

Indigo Girls

All That We Let In

"Saliers and Ray sing together as well as anyone on record, and when the material's up to snuff, they can't be beat...the sound this time around is surprisingly warm (even for a group with such crazy-good harmonies)." [Pop Matters]

Jennifer Warnes

Famous Blue Raincoat: The Songs of Leonard Cohen

"She wowed critics and fans alike with Famous Blue Raincoat, her album of Leonard Cohen songs." [AMG]

Josh Joplin Group

The Future That Was

"Folk records rarely feel this fun, and few pop albums sound this smart... a collection of literate pop gems that thematically picks up where his underrated debut, the aptly titled Useful Music, left off with an engaging critique of both himself and his world." [Paste Magazine]

Josh Rouse

1972

"Strings, flutes, and vocal harmonies are all used to capture the essence of such '70s artists as Carole King...Stevie Wonder, and Nick Drake...few 'retro' albums sound this fresh." [CMJ]

Map

Regrets, Silhouettes, and Distractions

"Sørgmodig vakkert...Melancholy Atmospheric Pop er et langt bandnavn, så Josh Dooley har forkortet det til Map. Det fulle navnet er likevel svært betegnende for hva Dooley står for...Hør denne, bandets to fullengdere og den tredje ep-en som fulgte senere. Alt Map har gitt ut, er verd å lytte til." 5/6 [Stavanger Aftenblad]

Marc Cohn

Burning the Daze

Burning the Daze er Marc Cohns tredje album, og som på de to første albumene bygges de fleste låtene rundt hans pianotoner. Ved siden av de poetiske tekstene og det usedvanlig sterke låtmaterialet, er det Cohns uttrykksfulle stemme som gjør dette til en herlig lytteropplevelse...kommersiell pop med sjel.

Mark Hollis

"Mark Hollis' self-titled debut picks up where he left off with Talk Talk's Laughing Stock seven years earlier...it's quite possibly the most quiet and intimate record ever made, each song cut to the bone for maximum emotional impact and every note carrying enormous meaning." [AMG]

Michael Miller

When We Come To

"Beautifully arranged, with Tom McRae style understated vocals and that Sparklehorse type production which introduces you to another sonic layer to the songs with every new listen...it's a record you go back to again and again, just to hear something new, a sign of its genuine depth." [Americana UK]

Michael Roe

The Boat Ashore

Klassisk melodiøs pop med klare referanser til 70-tallet - fra The Eagles, America og Alan Parsons Project til Neil Young og Grateful Dead. Det beste og mest gjennomarbeidede albumet til Michael Roe, som ikke bare overbeviser vokalt men som også har krydret albumet med utsøkt gitarspill.

Natalie Merchant

Ophelia

"Ophelia is more affluently produced, her swoons and sighs accompanied by layers of church-service organs, dashes of world-music vocalizing and Daniel Lanois' guitar...other than Bruce Springsteen's Ghost of Tom Joad, it's hard to recall a pop album in recent memory that's been so relentlessly somber." [EW]

Over the Rhine

Good Dog Bad Dog

"Reminiscent at times of R.E.M.'s powerful Automatic for the People, or The Innocence Mission's Glow, Good Dog Bad Dog surges with deep, still emotion that swells to fill whatever room it happens to be played in..." [East Carolinian Review]

Riki Michele

Surround Me

Surround Me is a classy-funk, chill-out, electro-soul party. Riki merges influences as diverse as Sade, Esthero, Bill Withers, Everything But The Girl, Kate Bush, Dido and DJ Ian Pooley into one beautiful and cohensive album.

Ron Sexsmith

Cobblestone Runway

"Ron Sexsmith's new record finds him in very fine voice on another collection of great songs, recorded with a fresh sound." [Elvis Costello]

Sam Phillips

Martinis & Bikinis

"Unlike pretenders who copy rather than create, Phillips doesn't so much mimic John Lennon as filter his influence - lovingly and angrily - into her own style. Martinis and Bikinis (produced by T-Bone Burnett) is her most vibrant release in a string of already remarkable records." [Rolling Stone]

Sixpence None The Richer

"It has the gritty melancholic gorgeousness of 10,000 Maniacs, the hard-edged delicacy The Cardigans are struggling to achieve and...string arrangements Richard Ashcroft would pawn his Hush Puppies for." [Melody Maker]

Starflyer 59

Leave Here a Stranger

"Starflyer 59's dreamy, introverted pop seems to channel the Beatles, the Beach Boys, and Nick Drake as much as the English shoegazer groups of the early '90s... Leave Here a Stranger is an atmospheric collection of beautifully languid melodies...for the right moment, Leave Here a Stranger is perfect." [AMG]

Steven Delopoulos

Me Died Blue

"A thoroughly modern record that uses the past as a way of investigating the present. Rock, folk, and country touches and pop hooks are used as way of getting the depth in this material across in the same way Paul Simon in his best material used Tin Pan Alley New York of the 1940s and '50s." [AMG]

The Innocence Mission

Glow

"The Innocence Mission finally managed to strike the perfect balance between the little everyday themes of their lyrics and the sweeping cinematic atmospheres of their guitar reverb and keyboards-in part thanks to an increased reliance on acoustic guitars and pianos. The result is a thoroughly original pop gem." [AMG]

Uno Svenningsson

Uno

Dette er Freda-vokalist Uno Svenningssons solo-debut, et av de beste pop-album utgitt i Scandinavia...

Vienna Teng

Waking Hour

"Vienna Teng has created a 13-track frenzy of musical explosion and lyrical commotion with her Waking Hour. Glimpses of Tori Amos, whispers of Kate Bush and even snippets of Gwen Stefani manifest, but Teng is neither a mimic nor easily categorized." [Paste Magazine]

Wes Cunningham

Pollyanna

"With a style that calls to mind Ed Harcourt and Neil Finn, Wes Cunningham has a sweet and soft melodic pop formula that works wonders... fans of smart, highbrow pop will find no fault with this album." [AMG]
