I have launched a personal campaign against groups with stupid names; if a group has a stupid name (like this), I won't even waste my time listening to you because in 99.9% of cases, it will suck (like this). more
I don't feel like giving it my all. And not because I consider "Sonic Flower Groove" their highest point, but because it definitely has its weaknesses (the gospel-pop of "Movin' On Up," "Damaged" which sounds like Oasis ahead of its time, "Come Together" which is drawn out WAY too long and should have been saved for the end...). The absolute best part for me is "Inner Flight." more
Music that humiliates. more
Innocuous and not so original until Rubber Soul, from then on an unstoppable pop group that took, mixed, and created a genre, never making clear from what points they started and what new points they created, uniting from light music a vast array of genres and creating their own style. Highly imitated. And now increasingly imitated in a downward trend, unfortunately mainstream pop has hit rock bottom, but it wasn't always the crap that people think. more
Beautiful psychedelic rock album. Obviously, the comparison with its predecessors is out of the question; here we are a good step below. However, Amon Duul II remain at more than satisfactory levels, and the album is good from start to finish. Infinitely lighter than the monoliths that came before it, too. more

"Angus, what does it mean to your detractors who accuse you of having composed 10 identical albums?"
"That they're wrong. There are 11." (from an interview with Angus Young). more
De André? The music is immediately felt... this indicates that De André's music is just accompaniment... jolly lyrics... let's say there's a school-like combinatorial skill... I don't find the music interesting... yes, one thing is clear, he pretends to be poor, but in the end, he's a well-off bourgeois like much of Italian music. more
The best among all the comedians of the '70s. Above Abatantuono and Calà, the various Boldi and De Sica, slightly a notch above Paolo Villaggio and Alvaro Vitali. A unique legend. His trash movies are to die for!!!! more
Fuck all those who call him an idiot. He's a fucking legend, damn it!! more
Another band from the Elephant6 collective alongside the huge Olivia Tremor Control, the modest Apples In Stereo in my opinion, and others. What can I say, at least a couple of great albums in the early phase of their career are undeniable ['The Gay Parade' and 'Coquelicot Asleep In The...']. Too bad that at a certain point they started to suck in my opinion. At least for me. 4 for the excellent early phase, up to 'Coquelicot'. more
Cathartic experience more
This is my Neil Young album; I simply adore it, from the first to the last note. Even after decades, it continues to give me the same emotions, with its calm, simple, romantic flow. The ten songs are absolute gems that will never cease to send shivers down my spine with every new listening, as if it were the first: an eternal return of infinite beauty. "Old Man," "Out On The Weekend," "Alabama," "Words (Between The Lines Of Age)"...THE ABSOLUTE... more
Uruguay - Italy? The one with more hunger will win. more
This record is history. Okay, it's a bit all the same... but it takes you on a journey, let's be honest. more
Echoes of "Shine On" in the very long title track, the best song on the album and among the best pieces birthed by Wilson. A truly great album. more
Come and tell me it's not the best album of the 2000s. Every track is a masterpiece, the lyrics are the best of the career, and the music is incredibly inspiring and engaging. more
What a masterpiece, oh my God. At least 6/7 songs that make you feel orgasmic. Lyrics, music... it has it all. Collapse The Light Into Earth brings tears. more
