The Paradise Motel - Flight Paths



This is the second album of the Australian band 'The Paradise Motel". Their lyrical subject matter often veered towards the melancholy and macabre, which resulted in comparisons to Nick Cave and Mazzy Star. Sparse, hurtful, gentle, a whole host of contradictions, that's how this album sounds, though somehow a lot of the melodies in it says 'Ireland' to me, as they sound a lot like a melancholic celtic band. This album also includes a cover version of The Cars' Drive. If you like female singers with a gentle, yet melancholic voice, do no miss this one. Enjoy it!

Track Listing:

Aeroplanes
Heavy Weather
Derwent River Star
Other Things
Four Degrees
Dead Beats

Primal Scream - Primal Scream


Oh my... What can I say about this album... It's just brilliant! I don't think there is anything else in the Primal Scream discography that sounds like this one.  The formula in this album works perfectly, it's rock/ballads/rock/ballads all throughout the entire set. This is a hidden classic! "I'm losing more than I'lll ever have" is a combination of the rock/ballad style and it's one of my favourite tracks. Other highlights include "Ivy Ivy Ivy", "You're just dead skin to me", "Sweet pretty thing", "Jesus can't save me".  I'd better go before I name the whole track list as favourites (grin). Enjoy it!

"Please stop crying... I know you know I've been lying..."

Track Listing: 

1.Ivy Ivy Ivy
2.You're just dead skin to me
3.She power
4.You're just too dark to care
5.I'm losing more than I'll ever have
6.Gimme gimme teenage head
7.Lone star girl
8.Kill the king
9.Sweet pretty thing
10. Jesus can't save me

The Sisters of Mercy - The Peel Sessions

3.1969
4.Alice
5.Poison door
6.Walk away
7.No time to cry
8.Emma

The Jesus and Mary Chain - The Complete John Peel Sessions


Jesus and Mary chain are one of my favourite bands ever! I think this album is absolutely great! It features the majority of the band's BBC recordings and hearing stripped-down acoustic versions of their noisy and melodic songs is nothing but a good reminder of the genius band they are! Enjoy it!

Track Listing:

1.In a hole
2.You trip me up
3.Never understand
4.Taste the floor
5.The living end
6.Inside me

21.Here comes Alice

Gene Loves Jezebel - The Thornfield Acoustic Sessions


I saw Gene loves Jezebel playing live in Rio de Janeiro and what a great concert that was!! Good old times... Hearing some of their songs being played acoustically is indeed a different but pleasurable journey into their world of melodic songs... Enjoy it!

Track Listing: 

1.Gorgeous
2.Kiss of life
3.Liquor man
4.Tangled up in you
5.Kick

Daniel Ash - Coming down


This album is a real pleasure and a worthy find. Daniel Ash, Bauhaus/Tones on tails/Love and rockets songwriter, brings quite effective atmospheric touches in this dark charismatic album. There's a smooth cover of the classic Beatles 'Day tripper', and several other brilliant songs. 'This love'. 'Coming down fast', and 'Me and my shadow' are highlights to this rare gem. Enjoy it!

Track Listing:

1.Blue moon
2.Coming down fast
3.Walk this way
4.Closer to you
5.Day tripper
6.This love
7.Blue angel

Covers collection



Now for something a little bit different...
This is a collection of covers from songs I like. I know most of the times a cover doesn't do justice to the original version of a song, but sometimes you can get real good ones too, and it can be quite pleasant to listen to a different version of a song we like. Whether you will like this collection or not it is up to you. I hope that you do though. Highlights in this album I created are 'A night like this', 'London calling', 'Ask', and let's not forget the very nice cover of 'There is a light that never goes out'. Enjoy it! 

Track Listing: 

1.A night like this (The Cure) - Wayne Hussey
2.Love vigilantes (New Order) - Iron and wine
3.London calling (The Clash) - Sofia
4.Ask (The Smiths) - Gene loves Jezebel
5.Heart shapped box (Nirvana) - Sofia 
6.Some candy talking (Jesus and Mary chain) - Richard Hawley
7.Orange crush (R.E.M) - Editors
8.The killing moon (Echo and the bunnymen) - Something for Kate
9.Why can't this be love (Van Halen) - Arab strap
10.Disco 2000 (Pulp) - Nick Cave
11.Jump (Van Halen) - Mary Lou Lord
12.Never tear us apart (INXS) - The upper room
13.Lovesong (The Cure) - Anberlin
14.Bizarre love triangle (New Order) - Even as we speak
15.There is a light that never goes out (The Smiths) - Joseph Arthur
16.Sinking (The Cure) - The shroud

The Cure - Rio de Janeiro - 26.01.1996


A few notes about this post. This is not a rip of the album you can see the cover above, with the exception of the first two songs, 'want' and 'fascination street'. This is indeed a copy of the audio from my own VHS tape from this concert. I got the VHS tape transferred to a DVD and extracted the audio from it.  :) Aww well, don't expect to ever find a soundboard copy of this one as I know for a fact that doesn't exist. Either way, enjoy it! :)
