2000-KRANKY
Produced By DARYL SMITH
1. Storm
2. Static
3. Sleep
4. Antennas To Heaven
The genre of Post Rock has been described this way. “Music using rock instrumentation for non-rock purposes, using guitars as facilitators of timbre and textures rather than riffs and power chords”. This is perhaps the best way to describe the sound of this Canadian band, and particularly their third album, Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven. The band, which was once a collective with a fluid membership, on this album utilizes three guitarists, two bass players and drummers, along with cello, violin and horns. Although Post Rock is directly influenced by the work of The Velvet Underground and Public Image, Ltd., there is little to suggest any direct lines to either band here. What may seem like just noise to some is actually a sprawling and breathtaking work by a band that has dared to be different and on the outside for what is now twenty years. The tracks are long…this is actually a double CD album with two songs on each disc. The first three are all within a minute of each other in length at just over 22 minutes, with the last one a virtual quickie at only 18 minutes.
Each track is broken into several separate parts, and the CD insert contains a fascinating drawing of how the entire album flows, with diagrams of how the intensity rises and falls. There are no vocals on the album except for pre-recorded spoken word pieces. But despite the length and sometimes airy atmospheres of the songs, this album somehow holds your attention. It manages to never become boring or stale. In short, it’s really masterfully done, managing to not be overdone or repetitious, but evolving constantly from one beautiful scene to another. This is not the kind of music the masses will enjoy…their albums have never sold well, and they’ve never had anything close to a hit song. But their fans keep them in business, enough so that they have, to this date, been able to release four albums and an EP. This is music for your adventurous side, and if you have the patience to handle the massive scope of the album, you will be rewarded. This is not rock…it’s post rock, at its absolute definition. A beautiful album, and a most intriguing band. [First added to this chart: 02/15/2014]

2000 – DREAMWORKS

Nelly Furtado is a Canadian born Portuguese singer who changed the face of pop music at the turn of the century. Her debut album, Whoa, Nelly!, was a major hit, and opened the door to pop music being music more diverse as far as exploring different genres. Her Portuguese roots are on full display, and is what ultimately made her different. Her blend of Latin, trip-hop, and pop was different, yet she was also catchy enough to light up the radio. The record was more of a hit in Europe and Canada than it was in the States, but songs like the excellent “I’m Like A Bird” and “Turn Off The Light” were enough to make American audiences take notice. Her voice is grating at first, but once you adjust to her, it’s actually very good. This was an artist poised for very big things.
Other highlights from Whoa, Nelly! Include “Shit On The Radio” and “Hey Man”. Her ability to create songs around both hip hop beats and acoustic guitars is impressive, but there is a bit more filler than you’d like to hear. She did stumble on her second album, Folklore, but she came back even bigger with 2006’s Loose and a slew of hits. After the 2000’s, though, Furtado has slowed to a crawl, having released just a pair of albums in a decade and a half. The two albums to have from Furtado are Whoa, Nelly and Loose, for sure. Whoa Nelly is the weaker of the two, but there are enough great moments to make it a winner. She does reportedly have a new album in the works…it will be interesting to hear what this most interesting pop singer doers next. [First added to this chart: 07/28/2024]
