| | Le Volume Courbe I Killed My Best Friend CD Le Volume Courbe Discography of CDs
Long playing debut of Charlotte Marionneau. Co-written by Kevin Shields from My Bloody Valentine.
This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.
Le Volume Courbe: Charlotte Marionneau (vocals, guitar, glockenspiel).
Featuring a cast of significant indie rock figures that includes My Bloody Valentine's Kevin Shields and Hope Sandoval of Mazzy Star, French singer-songwriter Charlotte Marionneau's debut album as Le Volume Courbe (The Volume Curve) is an often surreal blend of post-modern production techniques and Marionneau's idiosyncratic lyrics and vocals. She sings in a pre-pubescent whisper, to naïve, lo-fi musical accompaniment, and her eccentric English and the album's experimental tendencies ensure she maintains her listeners' attention. Her cover of Nina Simone's "Ain't Got No... I Got Life" will either give Simone fans a frisson of recognition, or conniptions.

Buoyed by the popularity of the hit contemporary pop ballad "Home," singer Michael Bublé's 2005 album, IT'S TIME, clearly positioned the vocalist as the preeminent neo-crooner of his generation. Easily the singer's most stylistically wide-ranging album so far, 2009's CRAZY LOVE is also one of his brightest, poppiest, and most fun. Bublé kicks things off with the theatrical, epic ballad "Cry Me a River" and proceeds to milk the tune with burnished breath, eking out the drama line by line. It's over the top for sure, but Bublé takes you to the edge of the cliff, prepares to jump, and then gives you ...

Undoubtedly inspired by Elton John and Hans Zimmer's soundtrack for The Lion King, the soundtrack for Tarzan, Disney's summer 1999 blockbuster, has little of the freshness that makes the film a visual treat. It follows the same formula that's informed every Disney soundtrack since The Lion King -- take two sweeping ballads and one uptempo dance number, and surround them with reprises and re-recordings for radio, as well as excerpts of the score. It's an exercise in recycling, essentially. As recently as Aladdin, Disney's animated films had rich soundtracks filled with robust songs and surging, dramatic scores. Tarzan is symptomatic of this decline. The core elements, however reminiscent of The Lion King they may be, aren't bad in and of themselves (apart from "Trashin' the Camp," a jive, lyric-less doo wop parody). The excerpts from Mark Mancina's score may push the melodrama buttons a little hard, but they are effective blends of African and movie music. Meanwhile, Phil Collins' songs are surprisingly strong, much more melodic and appealing than anything he's done since But Seriously. The main theme, "Two Worlds," is a particular standout, eerily echoing his former colleague Peter Gabriel's worldbeat explorations at times, but all of the songs (exception: "Trashin' the Camp") are quite strong. The only problem is, they're repeated and repeated and repeated. "Two Worlds" is included no less than four times, "You'll Be in My Heart" comprises two tracks and "Trashin' the ...
