Laura Gibson- "Beasts of Seasons" (2009)
Tuesday, March 03, 2009
Laura Gibson’s new album is out, and unfortunately “Beasts of Seasons” didn’t really astound me. It was all very lovely and emotional, but it was like reading a literary novel versus a piece of genre fiction…. It was all about careful development and exploration of the innermost feelings. In that way it filled the space of time it took to listen with the honey of Laura Gibson’s voice, and with her chatoyant musings and introspection. But there was no action, no twists, no particular magical moment that really hooked into me and didn’t let go. Just sincere, and at times face-slapping realism. And, to be honest, I found it, like too many literary fictions, a little bit boring. There was next to no variation in the sound of the songs, though beautiful, and I swear the songs and the spacing of the lyrics within them just got slower as the album went on. None of the songs stood out to me except for the charming and animated, ‘Spirited’. That one is definitely worth a listen.
But overall listening to the album was like dripping molasses. Very sweet and slow moving. If you hear one song from the album and enjoy it, I can almost guarantee you’ll like them all, and that’s not meant as a jibe. She has a very stable sound which she carries throughout the album and for those who love this style they will be sure to recognize Gibson’s newest release as a gem. I didn’t really enjoy “Beasts of Seasons” but I can see why it’s being called a masterpiece by those who enjoy this elegant type of singer/songwriter work.
This song isn’t on the album, it’s by a group called the Portland Cello Project, but it does feature Laura Gibson and the style is similar.

Katy Perry - Thinking Of You
Monday, March 02, 2009
Soft screams, candy-like voice of Katy Perry get you to your best romantic moments. I would not like to think my ex-lovers, because lovetime (lifetime:) comes and goes! However, Katy Perry seems to like fooling around and she's singing her soft, drinky song. How pity Katy, look at yourself! This is a good, good song.

Favorite indie artists and key tracks
I love indie rock and all the great artists. They make me love this style deep in my heart. They encouraged me to write more about my favorite music. I won't stop sharing my opinions with you. You can download some of these songs.
Patrick Wolf - Bluebells
The Magic Position is the most memorable album in five years.

Beach House's every song has its own touchy melody and soul. Master of None never loses its impact once you listened to it.
The Fiery Furnaces - Tropical Iceland
The Shins - New Slang
Feist - My Moon My Man
Bonnie Prince Billy - I see a Darkness
The darkest form of indie rock, Will Oldham teaches you something about songwriting here.
Cocorosie - Techno Love Song
The purest form of music , there is no category, there is no rush. This is unique song!
Arctic Monkeys - Fluorescent Adolescent
Blonde Redhead - Elephant Woman
The closing song of great independent movie "Hard Candy" and it's also the best song on Misery Is A Butterfly.
Elliott Smith - Speed Trials
Of Course, there wouldn't be any best of indie music lists without Elliott. He is a genious.
