Existentialist shoegaze with punk potatoes in lo-fi sauce. Fun. more
Weezer
The first two albums are excellent, the rest is quite mediocre. more
Ol' Dirty Bastard
5 just for having shit outside his sick psyche "Return To The 36 Chambers," which remains one of the coolest, degenerate, crazy, dirty, and "punk" works in the history of RAP. Oh, and for contributing to that great project that WAS the Wu-Tang Clan. Rest in peace, you old filthy bastard. more
Mike Patton
I just enjoyed 4 consecutive concerts on YouTube while preparing pizzas. Mr. Bungle, Tomahawk, Fantomas, and Faith No More. Thank you, Mike, and "porra, caralho" always. more
Khan
Total enjoyment! (thanks also to Dave's fingers) more
M83
I don't know why, but I stumbled upon them by chance and I really like them.. Sometimes they sound a bit too teen-oriented, but they are genuine and those keyboard waves of theirs are a pleasure.. Well done! more
James Brown
I didn't give it 5? Why? It's one of the ultimate ass-shakers, damn "Sex Machine"... more
Giorgio Gaber
Giorgio Gaber: I don't know what to say, well... I mean, all the albums and shows with Luporini, their "Teatro Canzone", would obviously be worth a 5, which is even a bit tight. But what score can you give to someone who made "Io se fossi Dio"? In the empyrean. more
Roger McGuinn
First the "Jingle-Jangle" and basically the birth of Folk-ROCK with the first two albums by the Byrds. Then his guitar in "Eight Miles High" and essentially the birth of "American Psychedelic Folk." Of course, there would also be the exclusion of Crosby's "Triad" from "The Notorious Byrd Brothers" and the group's collapse starting in mid-1968, but I feel generous... more
Mylène Farmer
And God created Woman. more
Rita Pavone
If at nearly seventy you have a face that looks like a scrotum, you have to come to terms with it.. If instead you stretch your wrinkles, it’s worse, because you’re still ugly, you’re pathetic and you look ridiculous.. Maybe with a facelift you can gain some appearances on stupid public shows.. Musically irrelevant.. more
Arcade Fire
reflektor is a randomaccessmemories that sounds even sadder, stale, and opportunistic. more
Television
Great band! At least if we consider the first two albums. more
Arcade Fire
Among the most interesting groups in the modern Indie Rock scene. more
Nico
My… um, Heroine. It was love at first listen. An absolute anomaly for its time that inspired the devoted legions of its post-punk and darkwave acolytes in the decades that followed, both depressed and not. Its echoes can still be heard in many works by contemporary indie female singer-songwriters (not Italian, unfortunately). It will forever remain in my heart (of darkness) and in my black earbuds. more
Baustelle
The current (bau)stels of a radical-chic from the posh left, yet endowed with a lyrical and stylistic sophistication quite rare in the contemporary Italian alternative scene, albeit oriented towards the past (inter)national-musical-popular. The background is pulp, as taught by Tarantino and Rodríguez, but a few forays into the modern wouldn't be a crime. more
Brunori sas
Never again hipsters. Never again! more
The Byrds -Fifth Dimension
Welcome, psychedelia. more
Neil Young -Zuma
Riding out of a black hole on a crazy horse with an electric socket for an asshole. Beautiful record, and incredibly important for things to come (Dinosaur Jr.?), like his other works from the end of the decade. Always specifying that for me the black hole mentioned above has produced the highest points of his career. more
