Fleet Foxes
A música dos Fleet Foxes estará a anos-luz do género musical que colocou Seattle no mapa musical, mas se de alguma coisa a sonoridade de bandas como os Nirvana, Pearl Jam ou Alice In Chains serviu para impulsionar a carreira de Casey Wescott (teclista) e seus companheiros foi mesmo como alerta para a possibilidade e validade de um percurso no universo dos estúdios e palcos.
A banda começou a gravar sem qualquer intenção de terminar um álbum, as expectativas eram poucas e não havia sequer uma editora para os empurrar. Mas o sucesso vivido no MySpace chamou a atenção da importante Sub Pop e eis que surge em 2008 o longa-duração homónimo (depois da experiência Sun Giant, em formato EP).Wescott explica sem pruridos a natureza desde disco: "Tudo o que fazemos, enquanto banda, é gravar discos e dar concertos. Temos todos muito cuidado em não fazer nada que não seja representativo da banda, não tentamos projectar nada, a não ser aquilo que a banda é. Tem sido tudo muito genuíno".

Chrome
A Chrome foi fundada em 1976 em São Francisco e inspirada em sons como Hawkwind e Black Sabbath.
Chrome's music incorporated synthesizers and samples, and frequently emphasized themes of science fiction and paranoia. Though their mainstream success was limited, Chrome are now regarded as one of the earliest industrial rock groups.
The Visitation - 1977
Chase
A trio of albums from Chase -- one of the hippest jazz rock combos of the 70s! The self-titled Chase album first burned onto the market in 1971 -- and it's a great distillation of a groove that was bubbling around in various other segments at the time -- some of the tighter big band rhythms of the late 60s, as you might find in the work of Maynard Ferguson or Woody Herman -- mixed with the hipper rhythms from the rockish underground, particularly in the work of Blood Sweat & Tears or Chicago. Chase is a fair bit jazzier than both of those groups -- as they often put the horns more upfront than the vocals -- although most numbers do have some sort of vocals as well. Instrumentation is heavy on trumpets -- which come together in blasting, blaring groove, even despite the smaller size of the combo -- and Phil Porter lays down some great keyboard lines that really help some of the best tracks cook nicely. Titles include "Handbags & Gladrags", "Livin In Heat", "Open Up Wide", "Hello Groceries", "Boys & Girls Together", and "Invitation To A River". Ennea is a jazz rock classic that still sounds pretty darn tasty today -- forged on the heels of Chicago and Blood Sweat & Tears, but with a sound that's leaner and meaner! The group's led by trumpeter Bill Chase -- hence their name -- and features lead vocals by GG Shinn and Terry Richards, both in a style that's got the same blue-eyed jazz soul overtones as that used by the groups mentioned above. The real strength of the tracks, though, is their jazzy backings -- horn-heavy, as you'd expect, and hitting some great riffs and licks on the album's side-long title "suite", which features many instrumental passages. Titles include "Hades", "Aphrodite (parts 1 & 2)", "Zeus", "Poseidon", "Cronus", "It Won't Be Long", "I Can Feel It", and "Night". Pure Music is the third album from the mighty Chase -- and proof that the group was still going strong even after their groundbreaking debut! The grooves here are almost tighter than before -- a bit more complicated instrumentally, with some of the trumpets backed off a bit, to leave more room for great lines on guitar and keyboards. There's still some vocals on the record, but they seem a bit more on the backburner than before -- and titles include "Close Up Tight", "Twinkles", "Weird Song #1", "Run Back To Mama", and "Bochawa". © 1996-2009, Dusty Groove America, Inc.Jazz fusion de primeira!

Floh De Cologne
Outra peróla Krautrock imperdível!
CAPTALISMO FEDE! A única coisa que consegui descobrir é que "Profitgeier" significa "Urubu do lucro". Bacana né? Pois é, essa banda não é mais uma daquelas coisas estranhas alemãs que todo mundo fala que é super estranho e na verdade realmente não é (o Kraan por exemplo, rock totalmente comum, apesar de ser bom). Essa banda é realmente bem experimental, bem malucona, e por mais que você não entenda nada de alemão como eu, é muitíssimo notável que eles tem um envolvimento político de esquerda muito forte, pra não dizer, socialistas mesmo. Musicalmente, bom, quem gosta de R.I.O. (Rock in opposition), Frank Zappa, e coisas acerca, vai com certeza gostar desse disco! Gravado ao vivo (e muito bem gravado, com um ótimo som), é uma ópera-rock, e é de verdade, diálogos bem musicados, você consegue perceber uma narrativa através das faixas, muito bem estruturado e impressionante como é tão bem executada ao vivo! Fora este disco, conheço só o "Geyer symphonie", e te digo que gostei até mais deste, "Profitgeier". Recomendo! Peguem o disco! Extraído do Perbove

Sloche
SLOCHE are another band from Quebec like MANEIGE,OPUS 5 and ET CETERA that must be heard to be believed.A 5 piece band with 2 keyboardists, although one of them plays sax at times.The vocals are fantastic as well and are in French. "C'Pas Fin Du Monde" opens with spacey synths for the first 1 1/2 minutes then this intricate sounding melody takes over with keys,bass,light drums and more.A collage of sounds really.Vocals join in a minute later.Nice.This sounds amazing! A calm 5 1/2 minutes in then some bombastic drums and organ kick in before it settles into a jazzy groove.Nice guitar after 7 1/2 minutes. "Le Kareme D'Eros" is the longest track at almost 11 minutes.We get piano melodies to open for over 3 1/2 minutes before vocals and a heavy and full sound takes over.They're having fun! Great guitar after 5 minutes as it trades solos with the organ.Incredible section! It settles with synths and piano before 7 minutes then the vocals come back.It turns spacey followed by a heavier sound after 9 minutes.Check it out! Great section. "J'un Oeil" builds to an incredible sound a minute in.Vocals join in too.Wonderful sound.There is a GENTLE GIANT vibe and then it settles before 3 minutes, we're back to the main melody with vocals a minute later. "Algebrique" opens with acoustic guitar as synths join in.Drums come in as the tempo picks up.Vocals 2 minutes in.An outburt of guitar and sound comes and goes 3 1/2 minutes in.Sax in this one too.Love the drum patterns here.Great track. "Potage Aux Herbes Douteuses" opens with a catchy beat,kind of funky actually.Cool sound especially the drumming after 2 1/2 minutes.Vocals a minute later followed by some outstanding floating organ sounds.Guitar and drums after 5 1/2 minutes take over.Vocals are back.It calms right with acoustic guitar to end it. This will appeal to more then just jazz fans out there,a hidden gem if there ever was one.

Octopus
Originally named The CORTINAS, this mid-60's Hatfield quartet was discovered by The TROGGS' soon-to-be bassist Tony Murray and Nigel Olssen, destined to be Elton JOHN's regular drummer. It is Murray who eventually introduced the band to producer Larry Page, The TROGG's manager, and by 1968 OCTOPUS had earned a support spot to a promising young band called YES. They also got booked into the Marquee Club, toured Europe, shared the stage with HUMBLE PIE and STATUS QUO among others, and in 1970 released a first-rate pop album titled "Restless Night"; unfortunately, however, it failed to attract much enthusiasm outside their hometown. They stuck together for a while and then decided to split up in 1972. Their keyboard player John Cook later joined MUNGO GERRY whereas bassist Nigel Griggs and drummer Malcolm Green, both moving to Australia, eventually became members of SPLIT ENZ.Their sole album is a fascinating specimen of early 70's pop with tinges of psychedelia, with musical phrases and choruses highly reminiscent of The BEATLES and TEN CC. Complete with the era's typical fuzz guitar and swirly organ, the album features short but catchy song-based melodies, a few bluesy jams and very strong vocals. The extremely rare original LP is no doubt worth a bundle but anyone interested in some fine pre-prog, 70's psych pop ought to seek out the 1997 CD release which contains several bonus tracks.You'll definitely be hooked by this OCTOPUS if you're a BEATLES, BADFINGER or TEN CC fan.

Three Majesty & Cotton Ferox
Released in 2004 after a promo version sneaked out in 2003 under the name Genesis P-Orridge & Cotton Ferox as part of Thee Genesis P-Orridge Spoken Word SeriesCouple of interesting notes about the release. The cover is a Sigil by Genesis P-Orridge titled "Word Of Mouth". Also, although the name suggests that this is a collaboration between Thee Majesty and Cotton Ferox the promo version is a more accurate group name. The only performmers on the release are Genesis P-Orridge, Carl Abrahamsson & Thomas Tibert. No Bryin Dall, Larry Thrasher or Lady Jaye P-Orridge. Although key members of Thee Majesty are not present on this release, Cotton Ferox superb soundscapes and grooves more than make up for their absences.

OUGENWEIDE was founded in spring 1970, in Hamburg as a folk rock band. The band is named after a song by Neidhart von Reuental, the first joint composition by Ougenweide. From the beginning the band wanted to set to music old poems and songs, but they never completely restricted themselves to the Medieval. The band was influenced by the rock music scene of Hamburg of the 60's. Lajso

A.R. & Machines
Producer, composer and musician from Hamburg (Germany), Achim Reichel is a key figure in the explosion of krautrock. Reichel was first a founder member of “The Rattles” at the beginning of the 60’s. In 1968 he formed the “Wonderland band” with the drummer Frank Dostal. Late 60’s he launched his first solo musical project called A.R and the machines. Musically it provides a supreme sonic musical voyage turned to cycled psychedelic guitar playing with lot of echoes and delay. The first album was published in 1971 in collaboration with Frank Dostal. The album presents an ambitious collection of spacey rock jams featuring a lot of electronic effects and arrangements. This album prefigures “acid” trips of krautrock guitar / minimal electronic explorers like Manuel Gottsching. The guitar freakouts and the weird imagination of the first effort continue to prevail in the following inspired, confused and various Die Grune Reise, A.R. IV, Autovision (generally a mix between guitar soudscapes and psych pop orientated songs). Reichel decided to abandon the project after 5 studio albums. Today A.R and the machines remains a high class standard of hypnotic space-echo guitar inventions. Philippe Blache
