Ed Sheeran
Seeing that what this being does is defined as 'folk rock' among other things makes me cringe. more
Panda Bear
"Person Pitch" was truly a great record, like taking the best of Brian Wilson (that was "Smile") and tearing it apart and reassembling it in a sea of loops, electronic beats, samples, and whatever else you can think of. Just like his parent group, Animal Collective, who have great albums [notably the ethno-folk-psych delirium of "Sung Tongs," an album of celestial beauty for me] but also abominable crap [the overhyped "Merriweather Post Pavilion," a half-baked mess in my opinion]. more
Takeshi Kitano
Outrage & Outrage Beyond, by his own, have the coolest plot (which doesn’t mean they are the best overall). Especially in the first one, there’s a wonderful tournament of screwing everyone. The second is much inferior, but immediately watching it after the first, you don't really pay much attention to it. N.B: watched in Italian, they must be crap, since they are always screaming. That’s probably why no one has paid attention to them here. more

"Taiga" is a gem. more
Fantastic Plastic Machine
"I've consumed 'The Fantastic Plastic Machine.' Also great is 'Luxury.'" more
Guitar Wolf
Best jappo punk group ever. Impossible to take seriously. Oh, and "Missile Me!" is the worst thing ever recorded (in a good way). JETTO GENELATION!!! more
Takeshi Kitano
A bit overrated. My favorite films of his are "Hana-Bi" and "L'Estate di Kikujiro." more
Charlie Chaplin
Among the greatest artists of the 20th century. more
Yasujiro Ozu
The ending of "Late Spring" is indeed one of the most moving I have ever seen. more
Elevate
With the CD Bronzee, they made their debut for Flower Shop Recordings of Robin Proper Sheppard in '94. Post punk? Noise rock? Math rock?.. Two beautiful albums to their name! Elevate - M'Statue

THE DREAM SYNDICATE -Live at Raji's
The end is drawing near, but tonight Steve and his companions don't seem to care; one of the most impactful, visionary, and significant live performances in Rock. With songs that during the concert take on greater explosiveness...John Coltrane Stereo Blues beautifully concludes the adventure of the Dream Syndicate. What a band!!!!!! more
Edoardo Bennato -Io Che Non Sono L'Imperatore
The raw and hammering component of the previous work is here even more exacerbated, reaching perhaps the most "experimental" sounds of his career, close to certain Buckley-esque vocalizations. "Affacciati affacciati" and the title track are the summa of his poetic vision, two aggressive political invectives against the State and the Papacy. PEAK. more
Edoardo Bennato -I Buoni e i Cattivi
Italian Rock has also passed through this album. Raw folk and proto-punk influences blend in this inspired concept album about the good-versus-evil debate. Harmonica, vocal runs, and kazoo deliver 40 minutes of badass music. Come on, line up for THREE! more
Faust -Faust
The """""""""pop""""""""""" (in 200,000 quotation marks) album by the Teutons. more
Tim Buckley -Happy Sad
A heartbreaking masterpiece in my opinion, when I hear "Love From Room 109" I feel like I am on a deserted beach at the end of summer. From the tears of "Dream Letter," dedicated to little Jeff, to "Gipsy Woman," an incredible tribal march, where the curly-haired voice from California explores the canons and rises high and free. 9.5. more
