Kate Bush
Always a pleasure to listen to. Very good right from the start. more
Cynic
Mystical Death Metal. more
Psychotic Waltz
Psychotic waltz, the name is not accidental. more
Phish -Junta
The Genesis intertwining with Zappa and jamming like the Grateful Dead, pulling out of the hat whimsical Pop-naif pieces worthy of the best solo Garcia. more
The Stone Roses -Second Coming
Everything but the Stone Roses. The guitars don’t scratch, the tracks don’t leave a mark (rock-blues like "Love Spreads" are nothing compared to the first album), the spark of great Pop has completely faded. An unrecognizable band for one of the most colossal disappointments of that decade. more
Luigi Tenco
"Respectable gentlemen, I hope you don’t mind if in Heaven, amidst the Saints, God will smother the memory of those lifeless lips, which preferred death to hatred and ignorance." more
Philippe Daverio
I am now reading the pathetic and childish attacks directed at him on Grillo's blog, especially after the gems of these days... just imagine if a person with this culture and experience can truly take such things into account... there's not even a point in arguing about it; it just makes me laugh... more
Lana Del Rey
Not bad at the beginning, currently an incoherent mix of snobby digressions and dark-desolate-fake hipster atmospheres. I await evolutionary improvements. more
Lana Del Rey
True as her big lips, useless, harmful, she doesn't even know how to sing. @Better if you really care: Ingrandisci questa immagine more
Eternal Elysium
Heavy and "doomy" psychedelia from Japan. Their "Spiritualized D" (year 2000) is among the coolest albums in the genre. Load bongs + volume crunch. more
Björk
As a woman, I’ll skim over that, since I’m here to talk about music. And speaking of music, I loved and continue to love works like "Post", and especially the icy electronics of "Vespertine". I didn't mind "Medulla" either... Then, she got lost too. The rest is just tavern talk; I couldn’t care less if it's as ugly as a putrefied rat... I'm not going to sleep with it! more
Bonnie "Prince" Billy -I See A Darkness
Tears record. No more, no less.. more
Bob Dylan -John Wesley Harding
Less overwhelming than the previous one (could it be otherwise?) But, if the subsequent albums are to be forgotten, this remains a beautiful country album. more
Bob Dylan -Bringing It All Back Home
Oh my goodness. A groundbreaking turn for the minstrel of Duluth, here the great tracks are endless. more
Franco Battiato -Sulle Corde di Aries
An evocative album, with extraordinary beauty. more
Franco Battiato -Pollution
Areknames, Beta, Plancton, Pollution: a terrifying sequence for one of the best albums by the Sicilian artist. more
Franco Battiato -Fetus
I had just been born and already felt inside my heart... more
Yes -Going For The One
Great album, the best since Relayer. Oh, is Relayer the one before? Well. more
Yes -Big Generator
Perhaps not entirely to be discarded, but certainly a disappointing, trendy pop album. A band I have overestimated. more
Björk
Well, I admit I’ve only really listened to "Post" and a few other songs here and there, but it didn't grab me at all.. I don't like the way she uses her (beautiful) voice; sometimes it's cloying.. However, I admire her because she is eclectic and still does what she loves to do.. more
