A ver esos Pernice, que el último tenía su gracia. Y ya de paso, me pillo el de Colder. ¿Cuánto es?

Greg Prato escribió:VAST is one man and one man only, Jon Crosby. Crosby grew up in Humboldt County, California, and at the age of 13, was profiled as a promising guitarist in Guitar Player Magazine. He was nearly signed to the guitar-based label Shrapnel, but decided to turn it down to hone his songwriting chops. Crosby soon left high school to do home study, and set out to form a band to perform some demos he recorded all by himself, under the name VAST. Although he was able to play shows, the band was a revolving door of members, with Crosby still recording demos all the while.
The music was original, as it encompassed elements of industrial/alternative (Nine Inch Nails) and ambient, with unpredictable samples added. One such demo started to get some heavy airplay on a local station, which led to a fierce major label bidding war. VAST was eventually signed to Elektra, and released the debut Visual Audio Sensory Theater in mid-1998. At the time of its release, auditions for a backing band for a subsequent tour were under way. Two years later, Crosby hooked up with producer Blumpy and a band made up of guitarist Justin Cotta, bassist Thomas Froggatt and drummer Steve Clark to create the 2000 release Music for People. VAST returned in 2004 with Nude.




Si, como hipótesis, esto acabara siendo un feudo de grupos desconocidos de heavy metal (género que aborrezco con toda mi alma)
Detesto tanto el primer grupo de bandas como el segundo, así que en mi caso no me sirve aclarar el término.Foghat escribió:Hay que definir Heavy Metal... Yo si se trata de cosas de los 70 como Thin Lizzy, Budgie, Cactus, Incredible Hog, Blues Creation, los primeros Whitesnake, Black Sabbath, Hackensack, Blue Cheer o demás grupo similares... pues son un autentico heavy metal! Si hablamos de Blind Guardian, Hammerfall, Avalanch, Rhapsody, Helloween o similares .... puaaaj!!


Y aquí os dejo la crítica en Pitchforkmedia, de la que pego la siguiente "advertencia":Oriol Rosell escribió:Lo que distingue a Radian en el escenario contemporáneo, es su absoluta falta de referentes. Suenan como si hubieran decidido hacer rock sin haber escuchado nunca rock. Como si el Miles Davis de "Bitches Brew" nunca hubiera sabido de Jimi Hendrix. [Ruta 66]
Although exquisitely composed and painstakingly constructed, your appreciation of Radian's third album, Juxtaposition, will almost solely depend upon your appetite for instrumental, electronic-based post-rock.




Amazon escribió:In 2002, the Norwegian duo of Svein Berge and Torbjorn Brundtland found a sweet spot between wispy Moon Safari-style pop and Boards of Canada-like atmospherics on the widely-admired Melody A.M. The Understanding sounds relatively absent-minded, careening around the room like a panicky fly. Some of it works well; the bouncy "Only This Moment" resembles Fischerspooner at their silliest (and thus, most fun), while "49 Percent" gets a huge lift from a New Jack vocal courtesy of Chelonis R. Jones. But the record is too often thwarted by syrupy synth-pop ("Follow My Ruin") as well as the lack of shifty downtempo rhythms and avant-garde underpinnings that kept Melody so pleasantly grounded. They haven’t lost their knack for subtle hooks and well-placed cross-rhythms, like the slippery keyboard squibble that glides its way into "What Else Is There?" But the sophomore curse is hard to overcome, and though there’s plenty here to recommend, Berge and Brundtland aren’t able to break the spell. –Matthew Cooke
