Arrogant, egomaniacal, lying, and contradictory. An alchemical element of the classical training of V.U. and as fundamental as the others. Great literary inspirations from the "decadent" movement. Solo works that are sometimes extraordinary, but often also stupid. more

Inserted in the Death Metal genre, they have always shown an enormous care in crafting long tracks, where the progressive influences of a sound that is never verbose are clearly highlighted. An enchanting band, which live unleashes an evocative force of infinite brightness... Progressive... more
The Byrds -The Notorious Byrd Brothers
hellraiser
Album class of '68 that marks the beginning of the second part of the career of the group led by McGuinn, one that is more oriented towards country-rock, but where the psychedelic influences of the previous albums can still be seen. Crosby is no longer there, replaced by the horse (a joke apparently orchestrated by McGuinn to tease him), but leaves behind one last song, "Draft Morning," reworked from his original. "Wasn't Born To Follow" is perhaps the most famous track, also thanks to the film Easy Rider from the same year. more
TAJ MAHAL -GIANT STEP / DE OLE FOLKS AT HOME
hellraiser
Perhaps the masterpiece of Henry St-Claire Fredericks, known as Taj Mahal from New York. A two-sided record, the first, Giant Step, electric, where the leader and multi-instrumentalist orchestrates a versatile and cheerful band with Jesse Ed Davis as its strong point on guitar, ranging from blues, country rock to cajun. The second, De Ole Folks At Home, sees Taj playing solo, acoustically, a series of wonderful songs, led by a goosebump-inducing version of "Linin' Track" by Leadbelly... more

Six Feet Under — Warpath | DeRank™: 0,00

1997. The group of Chris Barnes and Allen West, known for their work in Cannibal Corpse and Obituary, reaches the milestone of their second album. A work that follows the murky path started two years prior, through twelve songs where Death Metal takes on a mutating form, with slowed-down tempos that give the tracks a gloomy, emaciated, terrifying appearance: the opener "War is Coming" and the subsequent "Death or Glory" and "Revenge of the Zombie" are stunning... Terrifying... more

It seems to be very trendy to repeat "they should have split up after Exile...". I don't know if it's just laziness or chronic parrot-syndrome. There are people who would gladly sell their own mother just to be able to create tracks like Love is Strong, It's Only Rock and Roll, Angie, Start Me Up, Miss You, Beast of Burden, She was Hot, Anybody Seen My Baby... FREE YOUR MIND! more

Nicke Andersson's band, already the first drummer of Entombed, was one of the best representatives of that musical revival that emerged in Sweden in the mid-nineties, offering a explosive blend of MC5, Stooges, and Motorhead. The first two albums, "Supershitty To The Max!" and "Payn' The Dues," released in the years 1996/'97, are absolutely worthy of the highest praise... Explosive... more

I prefer the period from 1963 to 1969, more raw and wild. The covers of soul and rhythm 'n' blues tracks were a wonder. Then, after the death of Brian Jones, they became another band, that is, a money-making machine and business. If they had disbanded after "Exile on Main Street," they would have gone out in style, true legends, but instead they wanted to keep going, with unspeakable nonsense (especially the albums from the 80s), and even today they continue to wiggle on stage, at a ripe old age of 70. Enough! more

He was the true rock 'n' roll soul of the Rolling Stones of the Sixties, then Jagger, Richards, and Andrew Loog Oldham pushed him out, driving him into depression and eventually excluding him from the band he had founded and named. An excellent multi-instrumentalist, in the later part of his life he was also getting into the emerging electronic music. What a shame, he died too young. more

The best existing punk band. While other hardcore punk bands screamed and complained, Husker Du expressed their identity crisis with a certain experimentalism. The songs are never all the same. more
