Os Stranglers sao mais uma daquelas bandas que influenciaram muita gente. Comecaram a sua carreira em Inglaterra em 1974, ligando-se ao movimento punk, mas a sua musica abrange muito mais estilos. Continuam ativos hoje, mas o album que deixo aqui foca os primeiros 13 anos da carreira da banda. La Folie'n'roll!!

The Stranglers are another one of those bands that influenced many. They started their musical career in England in 1974, conneting themselves to the punk rock movement, but their music encompasses much more. They are still active today, but the album that I leave here focuses their first 13 years. La Folie'n'roll!!

NEIL YOUNG - HEART OF GOLD

EDUCACAO MUSICAL/MUSICAL EDUCATION 216


Neil Young e simplesmente um dos grandes do Rock'n'roll. Desde os anos 60 que este musico lanca material inovador, e de qualidade altissima. Considerado por muito o "Godfather" (padrinho) do grunge, e poeta, musico, compositor, e para mim um dos genios da musica moderna. Este Greatest Hits e so um cheirinho daquilo que Neil Young nos traz. Young'n'roll!!

Neil Young is simply one of the great figures of Rock'n'roll. since the 60's he's come out with innovative material and always of the highest quality. Considered by many the Godfather of Grunge, he is a poet, a musician, a composer, and in my opinion one of the geniuses of modern music. This Greatest Hits is only a little taste of what Neil Young has for us. Young'n'roll!!

BODY COUNT & JANE'S ADDICTION - DON'T CALL ME WHITEY, NIGGER

EDUCACAO MUSICAL/MUSICAL EDUCATION 208


Os Body Count sao um dos projetos do rapper Ice-T, que mais polemica causou. A musica Copkiller, incluida na primeira edicao deste album, foi retirada mais tarde por ser apologista da filosofia do olho por olho, incitando a violencia contra a policia. Ha que ver que nesta altura havia acontecido o caso Rodney King, onde uma serie de policias de Los Angeles foram filmados a espancar um negro. Transparece neste album (e tambem nos seguintes) toda a raiva da comunidade negra, tanto no som como nas letras de Ice-T. Ice'n'roll!!

Body Count are one of the most polemic side projects of the rapper Ice-T. The song Copkiller, included in the first edition of this album, was withdrawn later for inciting violence against the police. We have to take into account that this was the time in which the Rodney King case happened, where a series of LA police officers were filmed beating a black man. All the anger of the black community shows in this album, both in its sound as in Ice-T's lyrics. Ice'n'roll!!
