Spring of 1985, Slayer devastates the music market with their second monumental album that has nothing spring-like about it. And I have no doubt when I say it’s one of their best works, a sonic assault that leaves no survivors right from the hellish cover; the luciferian intro of the title track opens the macabre ritual, leading to an explosion of unprecedented ferocity driven by Dave's terrifying drumming and the killer, hyper-fast riffs of Jeff and Kerry. And we’re at the first track...SATANICI... more

In my brain, a spin cycle in the washing machine would do less damage than an extended listening session of Supermodified. more

Directly from the Black Ark Studios in Kingston, an (unforgettable) Lesson of BASS delivered from the masterful lectern of His Legend Lee "Scratch" Perry. more
Between metropolitan funk, bossa, and those irresistibly exotic accents that have always been dear to the Teste Parlanti, a manual of original and never conventional Songwriting. And - in a couple of tracks - the guitar of someone quite familiar to me. more

The Articolo 31 from the early '90s, as garbage as they were, are the Run DMC compared to the shit spray of today's hip hop in Italy. more
I don't know what magic there is in this album, but I know perfectly well that anyone who has the pleasure of listening to it will undoubtedly fall in love with it. more
Warning: before looking at the release date, listen to the album very carefully. more
Nothing essential, but in the right mood, emotions definitely give you something. However, I repeat, compared to their time, nothing exceptional. more
Maybe it can beat even Yoko Ono in terms of uselessness. more
The year after, Frank Black had to come up with a (brilliant) double album to measure up to this incredible record. A definitive demonstration (if it was needed) that in the Pixies, there were 2 talents, and they were equally matched. more
The Norwegian band led by Kritoffer Rygg has undergone a musical metamorphosis that takes your breath away, it’s so remarkable: a turning point that took place at the turn of the millennium, transforming them into something truly unique...EXPERIMENTERS... more
It’s the spring of two thousand: a new millennium and a new album for Kristoffer Rygg’s band. A radical yet unexpected shift that the Norwegians took with Perdition City: they abandon the Black Metal that characterized their earlier solid albums, arriving at a form of experimental electronic-ambient-trip hop that literally leaves you cold. But it’s a pleasure to be enveloped by tracks like the opening “Lost In Moments” or the prophetic title “The Future Sound Of Music”... more
Capable of creating indescribable atmospheres. Albedo 0.39 is its greatest proof. However, 4 because with its countless OSTs, I find it a bit limited by the visuals. more
Spring-summer 1998. more
In one word? Exhilarating. more
Well, for me, he's a good guy.. I don't follow him much, but I don't disparage him at all.. And then, well, "The Chamber" is a really great single, at least compared to the CRAP, and I emphasize CRAP, that plays on the radio... more
