Viva La Vida(more) »rank: 18by: Coldplay
Our review: : Coldplay Photos Amazon.com:To say there has been a lot of anticipation for Coldplay’s fourth album, Viva La Vida, is an understatement. Having enlisted legendary leftfield producer Brian Eno, borrowed their album title from a painting by renowned Mexican artist Frida Kahlo and made tantalising remarks about sonic reinvention, the world has been curious (to say the least) to hear what the ‘new’ Coldplay might sound like. Viva La Vida definitely makes some departures from the band’s usual formula, which happens to be one of the most commercially successful rock-pop blueprints of recent years. The plangent chords, emotive melodies, stadium-rock rhythms and universal ... Detail |

A Little Bit Longer(more) »rank: 23by: Jonas Brothers
Our review:Album Description:Produced by John Fields (with Jon Lind and Kevin Jonas, Sr., serving as executive producers), 'A Little Bit Longer' covers much musical and emotional ground, kicking off with the joyful jam 'BB Good.' Says Joe of the track, 'It's a big sing-along song, and it's fun.' The funky and danceable debut single, 'Burnin' Up,' keeps the party going, with Big Rob, the brothers' hefty security guard, rapping midtrack. 'It's about this girl,' adds Joe. 'Maybe she's at a party, and you feel that immediate connection. You both know it's there.' Though relentlessly upbeat, most songs on 'A Little Bit Longer' explore star-crossed ... Detail |

Covers(more) »rank: 25by: James Taylor
Our review:Album Description: Covers is the cd that James Taylor fans have been anticipating for years. Recorded live with his full band in a barn in Massachusetts that was transformed into a studio, the album is a treasury of songs he has performed live over the years, but never recorded. It is an American songbook of tunes made famous by artists as varied Buddy Holly, The Dixie Chicks, The Temptations, Leonard Cohen, George Jones and Eddie Cochran, but embraced and interpreted by James Taylor in a way that makes each one his own. It is a significant work by one of the greatest artists ... Detail |

Safe Trip Home(more) »rank: 46by: Dido
Our review:Album Description:This package includes 4 Dido postcards. :(Amazon.co.uk Review) Safe Trip Home, the third album from singer-songwriter Dido, sees the chanteuse cook up a slightly different ambience than on previous albums No Angel (1999) and Life for Rent (2003). Though her signature elements remain in place--the limited, slightly cracked falsetto; the dreamy, comforting trip-hop vibe--there seems to be an extra density to Safe Trip Home, doubtless provoked by the loss of her father in 2006. The added weight is predominantly in the lyrics, which tend to focus on loss and heartache, but there's extra detail and depth in the musicianship too, since Dido ... Detail |
