Capable of blending pop songs and experimental tracks like no one else. They were the most commercial group of the British Invasion, that's true, but they had an insane influence on everything that came after. Only the occasional Scaruffi can doubt their importance. more

"The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn" is a masterpiece, but FOR FUCK'S SAKE, enough with this idea that it's only worth listening to the albums with Barrett because the rest is shit. "Atom Heart Mother," "The Dark Side Of The Moon," "Wish You Were Here," and "Animals" are four fantastic albums from the first to the last note. As for The Wall, overall it can't be compared to their true masterpieces, but it has some amazing tracks. Gilmour may not be a virtuoso, but his solos are pure poetry. more

A super debut, then more great things. A band that has managed to turn even a genre often looked down upon by purists, like nu-metal, into an art form. more

Siamese Dream and Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness are two great albums, and Adore isn't bad either. It's just that they then became unimaginably repetitive. more

A genius group. The Bends is one of the best alternative albums of all time, Ok Computer is their masterpiece (but also one of the best albums in the history of rock): Greenwood's quasi-psychedelic guitar perfectly blends with Yorke's whiny yet extremely emotive voice. They prove to be great even when they experiment with Kid A and Amnesiac. The next two albums are good, but the latest one is not very good (in my opinion). more

The Beatles — the Beatles | DeRank™: 1,95

By far the greatest Beatles album, both in terms of quality and (of course) quantity of content. It ranges from psychedelia to pop, rock, proto-punk-noise, to experimentation with sound/structural collage and so on. In short, bring me another Beatles album rich (at least) as this one and I will run to get it. more

The first, wildly ragged full-length from JSBX picks up where Pussy Galore left off. The first gem of filthy and ultra-crooked Blues-Punk from the label... One of those records I load into the car before hitting the highway. The risk of breaking the speed limit is downright high... more

5 to these two who blend rhythms and electronic sounds, both analog and digital, with their own trademark. From them, various electronic musicians will take inspiration. more

Mainliner — Mellow Out | DeRank™: 1,27

Among the most rotten records I own. From the Rising Sun, year 1996. I don't know how to define them. Like a filthy and rancid bootleg of Comets On Fire (who didn't even exist in '96) played in symbiosis with Metal Machine Music. But even more warped and recorded with a bad setup. An assault on the neurons (and on the eardrums). more

I never appreciated Black Metal; but Dissection represents the classic exception that proves the rule. Their second album from 1995, "Storm of the Light's Bane," contains passages in Musica glacialmente ferali; and listening to it still overwhelms me today. more

I delved into it, it deserves 5 stars. Some pieces are history in the singer-songwriter genre. Always tracks of great lyrical quality, and the music is never predictable. more
