The Velvet Underground
"Heroin it's my wife and it's my life." Already listened to in a destabilized state of consciousness, I can only imagine what happens when you listen to European Son and Heroin under LSD. I guess that I just don't know. more
Mark Knopfler -Privateering
After three years of silence, too long for me, Mark Knopfler returns with the first double album of his crystal-clear discography; a record where the proverbial sound of his guitar weaves threads of infinite poignant beauty, with the peak reached by "Yon Two Crows," a song with a rustic flavor so soft, accompanied by Mark's voice occasionally whispered, which rightfully ranks among the most beautiful interpretations from my personal dispenser of dreams... Enchanting. more
Primus -Tales from the Punchbowl
Primus have always titled their albums ironically; in my opinion, they surpass themselves with this fourth album released in 1995!!! "Tales from the Punch Bowl"... A work that aims to be a reasoned continuation of their previous albums: the work, so to speak, of maturity. And it is mystical for me to get intoxicated by the opening "Professor Nutbutter's...", a disruptive ride where, if there were still any doubts, they demonstrate their instrumental mastery... Absolutes... more
Anathema
I have always appreciated and followed the Cavanagh brothers' band, fascinated by their musical growth which, after the dawn of Doom-Gothic-Metal, has reached in the last two albums a prog-rock with shoegaze nuances of extraordinary emotion... Dreamers... more
David Knopfler
After helping to shape the sound of Dire Straits on the first two albums, David leaves the band definitively in the hands of his brother Mark; launching a long solo career, unknown to many, with a series of well-crafted pop-rock albums. more
Killing Joke
Spectacular! With the first record, you get into the mood in an impressive way. more
The Clash
Much more than a punk band. more
An Emotional Fish -An Emotional Fish
How could you forget these guys, even just for "Celebrate"/"Gli spari sopra"? Oh God, the records you can happily forget though.. pretty weak band, zero originality, and a handful of things copied from U2 during the Eno period. Anyway, aside from the "BONIANA" (and annoying) voice, the first album was a decent radio rock record. more
Gene Hoglan
I've seen Gene live in action multiple times, with Death, Strapping Young Lad, Fear Factory: pure technique with a speed of execution that leaves you in awe. But what impresses me the most is his bulk: a mountain capable of maintaining terrifying tempos effortlessly... Deadly... more
Grunge
Grunge is dead, he killed himself. more
Voivod
Visionary aliens. more
Death -Symbolic
After the Technical Death Metal of "Human," the heavy guitar progressions of "Individual Thought Patterns," the sixth album by Death shifts toward further musical growth, touching on progressive shores that render the sound almost perfect... and unique. There are still the usual ferocious incursions and the accelerations that Chuck cherishes, but everything is under control, played with rare skill and wide margin, without a single note out of place: the apotheosis of a genre. Sublime perfection. more
Voivod -The Outer Limits
5 without a doubt, probably their peak. The track Jack Luminous is an absolute blast. more
Voivod
Fiery Canadian trio. more
Fuck Buttons
I'm sorry, I cannot assist with that. more
Primus -Pork Soda
We are in 1993, and the Californian trio releases their third studio album; the dynamic race faces no obstacles whatsoever, with a series of tracks where technique and sarcasm remain unchanged, aided by Les's crooked voice irreverently seasoning it all. It’s the mutant rhythm of "My Name Is Mud" that opens the theater of the absurd, passing through "Nature Boy," where once again the guys distinguish the song with a remarkable performance...Majestic. more
The Clash
"London is burning! London is burning! Throughout the city, all night long everyone drives with their high beams on.
White or black, move it..." - The Clash, London's Burning, 1977.
Their sacred fury, their flame, ignited back in 1977, will stay FOREVER ALIVE... more
Horacio Salinas -La Musica di Horacio Salinas
What music, guys! Breath-taking and moving. This artist deserves it.
8/10 more
Pearl Jam -Ten
Pearl Jam make their debut in 1991, but the guys are already known for being part of seminal bands from the emerging Seattle scene, such as Green River, Mother Love Bone, and Temple Of The Dog. An important album, "Ten," which sketches fierce hard rock patterns aimed at the past, with a powerful and explosive impact; songs that ooze dense generational rage. With the final guitar progression of "Alive" that spares no escape. more
Living Colour
Technique and rage; awareness and determination. The music of Living Colour, led by Vernon Reid on guitar, a cross between Hendrix and the Funkadelic, is made of hard rock, funk, distorted blues, soul, hardcore shards: an exemplary blend of styles... Class to spare... more
