Free Music Review: Listen to La Bomb; Buy Brazilian Girls
Hit: 5 Stars
Seriously worth having. I suppose that "Electronica" is the closest category that they could find, but this is not strictly an electronica album. But you'll find it hard to be still when you listen to it and you'll wish that you could hear them in one of the dance-clubs they specialize in. This is also A+ in-your-car music. I downloaded "Jinque" and "Last Call" from Napster because those were the songs in English; I believe their native language is Portuguese, which is an even better sound--even if you don't understand it. I also bought their debut album, and highly recommend it. In fact, I listen to it even more. Buy this one because the music is more accessible to English-speaking listeners.
Talk to La Bomb Poster
It's not a bright and sunny day in the land of Brazilian Girls anymore. That's the message one might take from "Jique," the opening track of this, their second album. In concert, they've performed "Jique" more playfully, but on Talk to La Bomb, a snarling bass-line and juggernaut drum riff drive this piece of post-industrial squall as singer Sabina Sciubba maintains her sophisticated cool against the electronic storm surge. There are no more cute songs with choruses that go "Pussy pussy pussy marijuana" like those that appeared on their first blast of joyful noise. This is a darker album full of Babel language, post-war rage, and techno-hysteria. "I always have an orgasm when the tanks are rolling, crashing through the borders," Sciubba declares on "Never Met a German." Brazilian Girls maintain the same kinetic thrust and hook-laden melodies as before, but they've turned up the rhythmic aggression and electronic squelch to 11. Attitudes that were bemused in "Lazy Lover" are now pissed off in "Sexy Asshole." Even when they start off sultry, like in "Rules of the Game," it turns into sardonic, synth-fuzzed anger. There is a stridency to some of the tracks, including the title piece, which starts out echoing Miles Davis's "Bitches Brew" before launching into a militaristic rhythm and sloganeering chorus. Only "Nicotine" has that seductive, late-night rendezvous mood of their first album, and even that has a bit of the Residents' zombie groove happening. On Talk to La Bomb, Brazilian Girls move from seducers to provocateurs. --John DilibertoJapanese pressing of the Jazz vocalist's 2006 album adds two bonus tracks: 'I Think It's Going To Rain Today' and 'Dance Me To The End Of Love'. Half the Perfect World is the much-anticipated follow-up to Peyroux's breakthrough album, Careless Love, which drew critical raves from around the world and sold more than a million copies. This time around, Peyroux focuses primarily on songs written by artists from her lifetime, including Leonard Cohen, Tom Waits and Fred Neil. The album also features an unforgettable duet with k.d. lang on the Joni Mitchell classic "River" and four original songs co-written by Peyroux, including the single "I'm All Right" which she penned with producer Larry Klein and Steely Dan's Walter Becker. Half the Perfect World is a sublime showcase for Peyroux's eloquent, understated delivery and timeless one-of-a-kind voice. Universal. 2006.
