Top Albums 2010 : #20 - #11

#20 - Yann Tiersen - Dust Lane [Mute]

Yann Tiersen a résolument tourné la page accordéons-qui-saignent pour se concentrer sur un rock débridé, instinctif, dans un album où les instruments de bois et de métal s'entrechoquent violemment autour de l'instrument phare : les voix, celle de Yann mais aussi et surtout celles des innombrables choristes qui ont défilé dans son studio pendant l'enregistrement, donnant un aspect à la fois fantomatique et céleste à l'ensemble.

The bleeding accordions era of Yann Tiersen has definitely ended to focus on a more rocky instinctive sound, on an album where the wood & steel instruments are violently shocked over the main instrument : the voices, the Yann's one but also the ones of the numerous people that stopped their way in Yann's studio for a moment, giving the sensation of a ghostly and celestical thing.


Yann Tiersen - Dust Lane

#19 - Foals - Total Life Forever [Transgressive]

Si cet album mérite sa place dans ce classement, c'est grâce à la merveilleuse, que dis-je, fantastique Spanish Sahara, qui aura traversé toute l'année pour terminer au sommet de presque tous les classements "Top Singles" des blogs, dont le mien.
Aidé par quelques bons autres titres comme Blue Blood, Miami et This Orient, le style est différent de leur premier album mais la qualité est la même.

This album deserves his place in the top thanks to the marvellous, fantastic Spanish Sahara, which has crossed the whole year to end in the top of quite all the blogs around the web, mine included. Helped by some other good songs as Blue Blood, Miami and This Orient, the style is different from their first album but the quality's always the same.

> Blue Blood

> This Orient


#18 - The Bewitched Hands - Birds And Drums [Savoir Faire]

Ce n'est pas souvent qu'on voit un sextet apparaître dans l'histoire du rock français, alors quand en plus la musique est de qualité, on se jette dessus et on écoute avec plaisir ces rémois osciller entre ballades épiques et comptines mélancoliques.

Not often a six musicians' band appears in French Rock history. Good music quality added to this, you must have a listen to these epic ballads before it becomes mainstream.

#17 - Jonsi - Go [XL/Parlophone]

Jonsi sans Sigur Ros, c'est toujours aussi aérien mais beaucoup plus éléctronique, et ce n'est pas pour me déplaire. Un très bon album du début à la fin dont le seul inconvénient réside dans le fait que pendant que Jonsi tournait, le prochain album de Sigur Ros n'a pas avancé!

Jonsi without Sigur Ros is always aerial but a lot more electronical, and that's pleasing me. A very good album from beginning to end with only one black point : during this whole year of touring for Jonsi, Sigur Ros's next album has not been done!

> Go Do

> Grow Till Tall


#16 - POND - Frond [Hole In The Sky]

Voilà un album que vous n'attendiez pas dans ce top et dont vous n'avez sans doute jamais entendu parler. POND, c'est un big band australien dont la particularité est... d'être composé de 3 des quatres membres de Tame Impala. C'est tout de suite plus intéressant, hein?

Here is an album you wouldn't expect in this top and have probably never heard about. POND, it's an Australian big-band which nice fact being they are made of 3 of the four members of... Tame Impala. Already more interesting, isn't it?

> Sunlight Cardigan

> Annie Orangetree


#15 - Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy [Def Jam]

Je dois pas être loin de la réalité si je vous dis que la moitié des blogs musicaux au Monde ont cet album dans leur Top 3 2010. Si Kanye n'y figure pas chez moi, il aura au moins eu le mérite de me faire apprécier un album de hip-hop en entier, et de rattraper le dégoût que j'avais pour lui après l'avoir vu au Main Square Festival en 2009!

I shouldn't be far from reality when I tell you half music blogs of the World have this album in their Top 3 of 2010. If Kanye's not in here, he deserves a #15 for making me like a whole hip-hop record, and for making me think he's not that asshole I saw at Main Square Festival in 2009.

> Power

#14 - Mogwai - Special Moves [Rock Action]




#13 - Memory Tapes - Seek Magic [Something In Construction]

Seek Magic est sorti en 2009 dans quelques pays, mais pas en France. Ici, il est dans les bacs depuis février 2010 et son ambiance chillwave est toujours d'actualité dans nos oreilles.

Seek Magic has been released in 2009 in a few countries, but not in France. Here, he's out since Feb 2010 and his chillwave ambiant's still fulfilling our ears.

> Stop Talking


#12 - Arcade Fire - The Suburbs [Merge]

C'est le plus mainstream des albums d'Arcade Fire, c'est aussi le plus "produit", ça n'en reste pas moins le meilleur après Funeral. A part un ou deux couacs, c'est un album propre et sans bavure qui s'écoute bien.

Yes, it's Arcade Fire's most mainstream album, and also the most "produced", anyway it's their best after Funeral, in my opinion. Except one or two nonsense tracks, it's a great album to listen at anytime.

> Ready To Start

> Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains)


#11 - Bonobo - Black Sands [Ninja Tune]

Dernier album downtempo/chill de ce top, le Black Sands de Bonobo est un véritable voyage de l'esprit qui s'écoute les yeux fermés et la tête dans les nuages.

Last downtempo/chill album of this top, Bonobo's Black Sands is a mind's trip which has to be listened eyes closed and head in the clouds.
