Folk songs in a precarious balance between dreaminess and mental illness. Skip Spence recorded it all in a single day, playing all the instruments, after being discharged from a psychiatric hospital, where he was committed after attacking the members of his previous band (Moby Grape) with an axe while under the influence of too much LSD. Beautiful. more
The rarest item in the Vertigo catalog, soon to be withdrawn from the market and becoming an object of cult. An obsessive and threatening sound like few others, capable of hypnotizing the senses. Only the essence of evil reigns unchallenged in these infamous grooves. more
One of those extremely honest bands. They made just one album. Probably there wasn’t the potential for another work of the same magnitude, and all that’s left is this little gem. Better meteors than time-wasters. more
Shitty band usually listened to by pseudo-alternative bratty fake rebels (the same brats who listen to Slipknot, by the way). Pure joy during the period they stopped bothering us with their cheesy songs, great disappointment when they returned to break out the guitars again. Total garbage! more
A 3.5 works for me. Despite all its naivetés, some excessive length, and a few definitely insignificant tracks, I quite like this album. It is certainly still immature, and the best would only come the following year. The title track is very beautiful and undoubtedly stands out from the rest, while almost the entire rest of the album is quite enjoyable. more
Humanly, the Beatle I admire the most, but perhaps I'm being influenced by Scorsese's doc. more
One of the great classics of the NWOBHM movement. The hard influences of Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin blend with the exuberance of the new English Metal. We are in the early '80s, and Diamond Head is already making history in the genre. A great band and a glorious saga to explore to the fullest. more
Rare original VHS released in 1991 by BGM, featuring 15 tracks from the 1980-81 tour. more

classic mini LP group... their works feature a few great songs and absolute darkness. The singer has a unique unlikability. The Vines - Get Free  more
I caught the video last week. It sucks, and that's a compliment, both her and the video. But it sucks so bad that compared to it, Lady Gaga is conceptual art. And even the song would suck, but whatever... who can even consider her a singer? Then I happened to rewatch an old video of Donna Summer, it must have been "Last Dance," I think... and I reflected on how, over the years, we've also become idiots in the use of a term like "sex symbol"... ugh. more
good yes. but they don’t leave anything inside me more
Mauro Malavasi, Davide Romani, and Paolo Gianolio, three boys already well-versed in the Bologna scene of taverns and singer-songwriters. In 1980, on the first try, the tavern transforms into a dance floor, the tagliatelle into neon spirals, and the world thanked by dancing, while the tortellini floated in a sparkling broth. GOOD TIMES. more
Among all the possible questions aimed at discovering a person's musical preferences, the only one I could answer with some certainty is: What is your favorite album?. more
The music on Saturn must be a sight to behold if it’s all like this. more
My concept of perfection! more
Shitty judgments more
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
The absolute nothingness around them on this site? Pre-Drive Like Jehu training. A must-listen. more
The self-destructive passion of a man who was probably the Devil, and went back to hell. Immense. more
