Le Noise
by Neil Young

Neil Young proves his songwriting abilities once again with Le Noise. Assisted only by his guitar and some tasteful production embellishments, Young bellows through 37 minutes of some great noisy, yet folksy material. Namely Hitchhiker, which had gone unreleased until this point, though it had been written and recorded in 1976. Not for everyone, especially those who aren't a fan of Ragged Glory and the likes.

Efeito demais, dá pra gastar em uma viagem, mas não mais que isso.

Tenendo fede al titolo dell'album, "Le noise" ha come protagonista il rumore ma non inteso come suono caotico fine a se stesso, bensì come veicolo ( sia esso ottenuto con il feedback, con un distorsore o con un effetto eco ) attraverso cui porgere delle canzoni che sono compiute, di livello come minimo discreto e a cui la produzione per l'appunto rumorista dona un'eterea grezzitudine.

An interesting albeit not entirely successful collaboration from Young and Lanois. It's okay, but it's all a bit samey, and sometimes you just cry out for some drums and bass to kick in and to just get rocking. Hitchhiker, is a highlight though.

Not my favourite Neil Young album an acquired taste needed here, maybe it will grow on me but I doubt it.

Another Neil Young experiment record. Not to everyone's taste but the man has no fear when it comes to music. You have to at least admire that.

Can't get into it. Not many do albums with just heavy distortrd electric guitar as backing. There is a reason why.

Doesn't contain any instant classics, but what I like about it is how it sounds. It's sparse--just Neil and his electric guitar--but it's so heavy. It's the nastiest guitar sound I've heard on a record in a long time.
