The Stone Roses - s/t and Fuck Buttons - Taro Sport


The Stone Roses Dub s/t shines with a glorious passion nothing can surpass. the opening track I want to be adored sparkles with delight with superb musicianship showing in the first few minutes. soaring guitar lines, stoic bass and blistering drum beats. the second track She Bangs The Drums is pure Mancunian pop, Smithsy Jangle that hits you in the heart with a sweet chorus and nice guitar riff-age. Waterfall is brilliant with great riffs and good lyrics. Don't Stop is a remix of Waterfall and is equally passionate and melodic. Bye Bye Badman offers some new guitar textures and Ian Browns vocals are just stunning. Elizabeth my Dear is the shortest track on the album and Brown sings about Queen Elizabeth losing her thrown and ''Curtains for you'' Song For My Sugar Spun Sister is brilliant and equally passionate as anything on here. Made Of Stone is probably the best track on here with soaring guitar lines and lyrics like ''Sometimes I fantasize/ when the streets are cold and lonely/ and the cars they burn below me'' brilliant stuff. Shoot You down offers a different drum beat and bass line with chiming guitars and deeper vocals. This is the One is superb with chiming guitars and deep bass lines. I am The Resurrection is an 8 minute masterpiece with bridge section and outro, and instrumental breakdown sections. as a whole The Stone Roses debut is a an amalgamation of passionate vocals and lyrics with chiming proggy guitar deep bass lines and funky drumbeats. 10/10

Fuck Button's Lp Taro Sport is a brilliant exploration in techno and electronica noise music. first track Surf Solar is a breeze of beats and electronics and it really creeps up on you with its length and also subtle sounds that really get under your skin. Rough Steez is ultimately brilliant and surging in its wake. with the drums coming in its got this pulse along with it. The Lisbon Maru is a shuffle in electronic form as the synth just pierces your Brain and fragments in in two. Olympians is easily the best track on here and is just unrelenting. Phantom Lim is good, Space Mountain and Flight of the Feathers are all good but it definitely decreases in style and substance as the Lp progresses. the first four tracks you could listen to them for years they are perfect. Its unrelenting this album, the size of each track spanning at nearly ten minutes each is a good thing I think because they really draw your attention in and its surging in its wake. if this doesn't get you dancing nothing will. some of the beats on here are just layered jams that pulsate, and the synth is noise y and unforgiving. 9/10
