Claro que en el escenario principal también se pudo escuchar a artistas cuya juventud no fue un obstáculo para la demostración de talento, como fue el caso de My Chemical Romance - con una vital propuesta de punk vitaminizado - e Interpol - armados de melancolía, una original voz principal y un sentido de la composición que les permitió rescatar con la inspiración necesaria los mejores aires góticos de los 80. Pero hubo que esperar a Queens Of The Stone Age para que la tarima se sintiera realmente colmada de genialidad. Sin el apoyo del ex bajista Nick Oliveri (retirado de la banda hace ya buen tiempo) ni del ilustre colaborador Mark Lannegan (ex Screaming Trees) en las voces, el vocalista y cantante [Josh Homme] demostró que no le es realmente necesario depender de ninguna estrella q...

LOS ANGELES TIMES
LOS ANGELES - No pop star has built a fortress as maze-filled and ironclad as one W. Axl Rose. Not Michael Jackson, whose retreat was forced by scandal as much as by artistic crisis and who seems ever more weakened by his reputation's slide. Not Zack de la Rocha, who (like Rose) went down countless collaborative roads before revamping the Rage Against the Machine template with his new project, One Day As a Lion. Not Garth Brooks, who also turned hermit but craved the crowds too much to stay inside.

It's doubtful Robert Plant needed coaching to shriek "baaaaay- beeeeey" or that Zack de la Rocha ever needed a lesson.

What are the elusive qualities that give a musician the capacity to front a band? Last week, the satellite radio station XFM London (xfm.co.uk) reported the results of its poll on who were "The Greatest Frontmen of All Time." The list arrived not with a bang, but a whimper. Thousands of votes cast narrowed down to one rather disturbing result -- Liam Gallagher of Oasis and Beady Eye is, according to the poll, the best of the best.
After letting this sink in, and stifling the urge throw up my morning breakfast of iced coffee and a Clif Bar, I decided to turn my outrage into action. After all, the rest of the Top 20 list conjured by XFM listeners was almost as offensively ridiculous -- Chris Martin of Coldplay? Brandon Flowers of the Killers? Caleb Followill of Kings of Leon? D...
