greenxeyezz's Euterpe Pick (Freeleech)



Bush - Razorblade Suitcase[1996]
Grunge | Alternative-Rock
Discogs

greenxeyezz wrote:The biggest reason for this pick to me is one word: Nostalgia. I remember this being one of my first few albums I ever purchased as a CD when I was young and barely could save up my allowance from my parents to buy anything, yet alone expensive CD's. To me 90's music has always had its place to remember everything about. To me this was one of those albums you wanted to try and remember all the songs, since quite a few of them were hits on the radio at the time. My all time fave being 'Swallowed'. At the time, the lyrics didn't mean much to me, it was more of his voice and how it carried throughout the song. Then you have 'Greedy Fly' which takes his soothing voice and gives it a better sound. I know its not the best album of all time, nor the best of the 90's. Yet because of the memories from this album has to be a FreeLeech pick. Hopefully some of you have heard the songs and hopefully will bring back memories too

Slam's Euterpe Pick (Freeleech)



Sick of It All - Built to Last [1997]
New York Hardcore Punk
Discogs

Slam wrote:Just really good fast-paced hardcore punk, probably a definitive for 90s NY scene.
From the battlecry in the beginning of "Good Lookin' Out" it holds you breath all the way until the end.
I remember it stuck out immediately after first listen, and it never plays out. Probably some people think about raw unpolished fury of "It's Clobbering Time", or even what could be used as hardcore scene anthem - "Step Down" as the band's finest efforts. Still I think that their impact will be felt with this one.

ToasterUnplugged's Euterpe Pick (Neutral Leech)



Pappo - Pappo & amigos [2000]
Hard Rock | Blues
Discogs

ToasterUnplugged wroteappo was an Argentinean guitarist/singer that rose to prominence in the 70's, mainly through his ever-changing blues rock band, Pappo's Blues. He'd go on to achieve legendary status, being regarded as Argentina's greatest guitarist of all time and performing together with international artists such as B.B. King.

This double album consists of new versions of plenty of songs from his back catalogue (including songs from Pappo's Blues, solo work, and one-off band Aeroblus), aided by several stellar guests from Argentina's rock scene, who either had worked together with him in the past or were largely influenced by his music. The result are some intense two-and-a-half hours of pure rock, showcasing Pappo's legacy with a fresh new take, yet without losing its essence.

I wanted to pick something to highlight some of the best that Argentina has to offer, and what better way than this album! Hope you enjoy it, and also check out not only the rest of Pappo and his bands' work, but some of the guests as well!

starful's Euterpe Pick (Neutral Leech)



Sparks - No. 1 in Heaven [1979]
Disco | Art Rock
Discogs

starful wrote:Sparks have recorded a ton of brilliant albums (two dozens, actually), but Number One in Heaven is more than a fine album - it is a collection of sounds that spawn pure magic. It may be due to Giorgio Moroder's production techniques combined with Ron Mael's unique songwriting, maybe it's just a perfect blend of electronica and live drums, but it may also be that this record was actually recorded in Heaven. If you ask me, it surely was. It is the highlight of my life's soundtrack and I would like to share it with you.
