Coelum

It's time to update the profile, it's been almost six years since my first login. But above all, I have absolutely nothing to do.

To recap: I like music, I really like music. I've been singing since I was born, now even in public (albeit in the most reassuring choral formation). I appreciated, in chronological order:

• the 883
• Ligabue and Battiato
• Deep Purple and Jethro Tull
• a huge mass of assholes pushed by MTV (Blink 182 included)
• Metallica, Nirvana
• Limp Bizkit and Slipknot
• Elio e le Storie Tese
• Dream Theater and System of a Down

Then I come across Mars Volta and an internet connection, I search for a review on Google and I find Rivo's—the first insult on de-b when, with an anonymous comment, I dared to suggest the Dream Theater-Mars Volta analogy (quite off-target I admit, but my musical culture was up there, so maybe it was the best connection I could make).
So I get pulled into the spiral of the lively De-Baser community, there were probably around three hundred reviews then, I even wrote a few myself but struggle to join the debates: I perceive my ignorance. Now, after six years and having listened to a few hundred albums, I can say that the situation hasn't changed a damn and that I still recognize only about 15% of what’s featured on the homepage. Awesome.

So far I consider it the most human, fun, and interesting site I have ever visited.
