Ufo -No Heavy Petting
I must say that I like it (almost) as much as "Phenomenon," by a band that firmly establishes itself among the most engaging and valid in the rock/hard scene of the '70s. The initial trio is simply irresistible, and there are other standout songs like the ballad "Belladonna," my favorite "On With the Action" with its grand and "epic" tones in the least tacky sense of the term, and the concluding "Martian Landscape" (which also honors the band's name, eh). All beautiful, highly inspired tracks. The definitive addition of piano and various keyboards is very welcome and adds a superb touch of variety and expressiveness to the band's sound; played on this album (the one with the two records on the cover) by Danny Peyronel, they serve as the perfect complement to Schenker's central guitar and decisively mark a good number of songs, some of which flirt with piano rock (like "Highway Girl," for example, another great song), while others, like "Belladonna," are elegantly enriched. Mogg delivers two or three very nice performances, Schenker shines with a couple of standout moments in some of the aforementioned tracks, and Peyronel significantly contributes as a writer or co-writer to some of the most successful pieces on "No Heavy Petting." Truly a great album, I enjoyed it a lot. more

Black metal in its most ethereal and transcendental form. Two Hunters, my favorite album in the genre, always manages to freeze me with its unique and unparalleled atmospheres. more

R.E.M. -Fables Of The Reconstruction
A splendid album and unfortunately one of their least appreciated and most underrated. Composed during a time of intense tension within the band, it absorbs the frayed nerves, and there’s a veil of gloom, a greater darkness that envelops their typical melodic tapestries, which are particularly inspired here, especially noticeable in some tracks, with the masterful opening "Feeling Gravity Pull" acting as a manifesto of this mood and the great music the four Georgians have produced (as often happens in art, from crises emerge works of immense artistic value). And just as it opens with a masterpiece, it closes in the same manner, with the heartbreaking melancholy of the killer melody "Wendell Gee," one of my favorites in their vast repertoire, which follows the almost equally beautiful "Good Advices." In between, a sequence of beautiful songs is delivered relentlessly to the ears, showcasing their usual delicacy and that extra touch of "tension" I adore in this album ("Life and How to Live It," the fabulous "Auctioneer"). But the other two masterpieces for me are "Driver 8" and "Green Grow the Rushes," must-have diamonds in the R.E.M. discography. more
