Eddie Vedder - Earthling (2022)

[Grunge Rock]

United States

Rating - 4 Stars

Considering he has fronted one of the biggest rock bands in the world for over 30 years Eddie Vedder's track record with solo recordings hasn't been particularly good. With his only real solo releases being a movie soundtrack (littered with musical interludes rather than songs) and an album of songs played exclusively on ukulele, a proper solo album of real songs was long overdue. When Earthling finally appeared, produced by in-demand pop producer Andrew Watt, fans were a little concerned what direction Vedder would take things in. Turns out they didn't need to be worried, as the album is chock full of the sort of songs he has written for Pearl Jam over the last couple of decades - with a few surprises also thrown in. The album opens with the uplifting 'Invincible', an ode to the power of humanity, and swells into a great sing-along fist pumper. 'Power Of Right' grinds out the speakers with a little bit of grit between its teeth, allowing fans to smile as Vedder returns to his more alternative rock roots. Things get even louder still later in the album with 'Good And Evil', sounding like a punk song of Vedder's youth. 'Long Way', the album's first single, sounds like a great lost Tom Petty song - but that seems like the point. It's a tribute rather than a rip off, although it is one of the lower spots on the album. Alternatively, yet another single 'Brother The Cloud' is one of the highlights, building from a quiet start and then punching out the speakers at just the right moment. Vedder's vocals shine here, and he knows how to carry a chorus to the masses with just enough bait to hook them in. There are quieter moments like the tender 'The Haves', but these do tend to outstay their welcome a little as they come across a little too soppy to sit nicely side by side with the other material. 'Try' is a chaotic zydeco shuffle, that features Stevie Wonder playing harmonica like a deranged mad man. Elton John sings in everyone's favourite drunk uncle voice on 'Picture' and even Ringo Starr drops by to tap the skins on 'Mrs. Mills' proving Vedder has now truly transcended to being in the upper halls of the rock elite. The album closes with the moody, but short, 'On My Way' and leaves the listener satisfied with what they have heard. By all means, it isn't a perfect album - for one thing the production is flat and lifeless, and some songs are just a tad too. commercial - but all in all it is still a great listen, and a great 'first' solo album.

Andrew Patrick Wood (January 8, 1966 - March 19, 1990) was an American musician who was the lead singer and lyricist for the alternative rock bands Malfunkshun and Mother Love Bone. He formed Malfunkshun in 1980 with his older brother Kevin Wood on guitar and Regan Hagar on drums. The band used alter ego personas onstage; Wood performed as Landrew The Love Child. Though the band only released two songs before going on an extended hiatus, they are often cited as being among the originators of the Seattle grunge movement. While in Malfunkshun, Wood started using drugs, entering rehab in 1985. In 1988, Wood began jamming with Green River members Stone Gossard and Jeff Ament while Malfunkshun was on hiatus. They began writing original material and formed Mother Love Bone the same year, adding guitarist Bruce Fairweather (also a former member of Green River) and drummer Greg Gilmore to the lineup. In 1989, the band signed a deal with PolyGram issuing an E.P., 'Shine', before going on tour, supporting The Dogs D'Amour. Near the end of the year, the band recorded their debut album, 'Apple', which was scheduled for release in 1990. Struggling with drug dependence, Wood checked himself into rehab in 1989, hoping to get clean for the release of Mother Love Bone's debut album. He died in Seattle on March 19, 1990, at the age of 24, after being found in a comatose state by his girlfriend following a heroin overdose.

Radiohead
Kid A

[Album]
2 October 2000
Alternative Rock

'Kid A' is the fourth studio album by Radiohead. It was recorded with their producer, Nigel Godrich, in Paris, Copenhagen, Gloucestershire and Oxfordshire. Departing from their earlier sound, the band incorporated influences from electronic music, krautrock, jazz and 20th-century classical music, with a wider range of instruments and effects. The singer, Thom Yorke, wrote impersonal and abstract lyrics, cutting up phrases and assembling them at random. In a departure from industry practice, Radiohead released no singles and conducted few interviews and photoshoots. Instead, they released short animations and became one of the first major acts to use the internet for promotion.

Radiohead are an English rock band formed in Abingdon, Oxfordshire, in 1985. The band's experimental approach is credited with advancing the sound of alternative rock. They have sold more than 30+ million albums worldwide.

Mediabase 2.0 is a new version of the site being rebuilt, page by page, line by line. Same old look, but with a new engine. You may see an error or two, but don't worry - it will all run smoothly soon.

In the meantime Mediabase 1.0 is still available here.
