Shitty judgments more
Jovanotti
Basically a big jerk. I give him an extra point because his first girlfriend only gave in after I gave her a copy of "Capo Horn." A humble girl with modest expectations, it's a shame I lost track of her. more
Pitchfork
The absolute nothingness around them on this site? Pre-Drive Like Jehu training. A must-listen. more
The Gun Club
The self-destructive passion of a man who was probably the Devil, and went back to hell. Immense. more
Rush
5 for technical quality, 5 for consistency and the courage to change style (almost always with excellent results), 4.5 because perhaps they haven’t created true masterpieces (maybe those from the 2nd phase or 2112 come close), 4 as personal taste because I can't give more to a "heavy" group. In any case, huge and, if you're serious about decibels, Rush is the right choice. more
The Drones
from Australia a scream of pain, suffering, desperate, desert blues struck by violent electric shocks. A very big group. YouTube video non trovato Qwi9hnCYDXA

Elton John -Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
It starts with a bang, then drops off over distance but remains at a more than decent level. more
Robert Johnson
Seminal. Don't be deceived by the poor quality of the recordings from the '30s; listen to the songs and understand their full meaning. Robert Johnson really sold his soul to the devil. more
Genesis -Wind & Wuthering
It would be a 3.5. I round down because I simply can't forgive them for 'Your Own Special Way.' To those who asked about Hackett's frustration with the lack of consideration given to his ideas, Rutherford replied that only the best they had available ended up on the Genesis albums. Nonsense. With a piece like 'Inside and Out' at their disposal, including that piece of crap from Pluto can only seem like a 'political' rather than an artistic choice: Banks wanted to show off. more
Leonardo Pieraccioni
I was practically forced to watch "Il ciclone" on the promise that it would leave me in stitches. Well, I didn’t even crack half a smile... Insignificant him and his films. more
Shelleyan Orphan
The only ones, along with the enchanted Virginia Astley, selling scraps of Victorian England at the noisy and flashy fair of the '80s. The unused soundtrack for Mrs. Dalloway, the fragrant English countryside, the dreams of Virginia Woolf. The beginning of a timid and hidden new Folk scene, from which Miro' and Red Chair Fadeaway will emerge. more
Marlene Kuntz -Ho Ucciso Paranoia
A truly great album, in my opinion one of the best Italian records of the '90s, and at the same time, in my view, the only real great album they ever made. Well, we all know how it ended up, becoming truly repellent and irritating to me. more
Talulah Gosh
a seminal group, led by Amelia Fletcher, which will shortly continue with the excellent Heavelin. Distorted English twee pop with a feminine touch, irresistible. Infinite all-female groups carry the DNA of this fantastic band with their brief history YouTube more
The Sea and Cake
Sam Prekop. Archer Prewitt, John McEntire, do they ring a bell? A prodigious group. Homonymous, The Biz, Nassau, must-have records... the post-rock theories of Chicago applied to pop. Rhythms à la Tortoise, indie pop, tropical beats, new wave... astounding. The Sea and Cake- The Kiss  more
Carlo Vanzina
I don't know if it was him (it was probably his brother), but he publicly criticized Neri Parenti for having degenerated the themes of their first "Vacanze di Natale '83," with the various cinepanettoni of the last 30 years. I agree with him/them. Too bad that that mediocre film, leaning towards the terrible, was the peak of a mountain of dung. more
Sid Vicious
With Kurt Cobain and Eminem, he competes for the title of "High School Kids' T-Shirt Idol." more
