Belphegor
Seen live: violence, ignorance, and rawness guaranteed :-) more
Piero Scaruffi
One who praises Faust and gives 7 to Aqua, terrible orator Piero Scaruffi introducing the SMMMASH of Jan 2013
 more
Renato Zero
A bit like Marc Bolan from Montagnola, 5 uniquely for Jack Skeletron and for the neighborhood affinities, otherwise it would have been 2 or 3. more
Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers -Moanin'
F-O-N-D-A-M-E-N-T-A-L. In a respectable jazz record collection, it absolutely positively cannot be missing. more
Loreena McKennitt -The Mask and the Mirror
An exhilarating journey through time. A refined blend of images, colors, and sounds from a distant era that feels so close you can almost scent it. more
Piero Scaruffi
But do screaming broccolis really exist? more
The Birthday Party
to an increasingly unbearable Nick Cave, dressed in a suit and tie, "I only listen to classical music" and I'm a great writer, someone should show him this The Birthday Party - Fears of Gun Live and remind him what it means to have a soul. more
Samaris
My music pusher has been praising this group for a few months now. They come from Iceland, a magical potion of slow-beat electronics, exoticism, siren songs, and the magic that this land emanates. After listening to their self-titled debut album, a collection of singles, I feel compelled to say that my music pusher usually misses the mark, but this time he hit the bullseye. A band to keep an eye on. Samaris - VögguDub  more
The Fall -The Peel Sessions
The original version is essential just like the historic "Witch Trials," but even better (if possible) is "The COMPLETE Peel Sessions," which in 6 CDs gathers everything there is to gather from '78 to 2004: over seven hours of Fall, one of the greatest releases of the last decade. more
Living Colour -Time's Up
"Funk-metal"...? - reductive. Here we’re dealing with a STRA-Disco based on one of the most explosive CROSSOVERS ever played. And with Vernon Reid in the role of a futuristic and visionary Hendrix, incendiary lyrics about sex, politics, and religion travel at the same speed as a furiously brilliant electric guitar. more
Pearl Jam -No Code
The soul of Pearl Jam. Electroacoustic, meditative, epic but without any false rhetoric, rather insisting on emotional sincerity. more
Pantera
The greatest of all time more
Beastie Boys -Paul's Boutique
Miles Davis loved this album. And he was right to. The first great masterpiece by these 3 crazies, after the ridiculous debut "Licensed To III." more
Minutemen -The Punch Line
Initially, I rated it a 4 for this, but thinking it over, I’d say a 5 is well-deserved for such an album. 18 very short tracks (it lasts 15 minutes...) packed with acrobatic evolutions from the magnificent trio shot at high speed with exceptional skill. Even back in 1981, they were much more than "Hardcore." more
Pupo
His albums are recommended in the pre-asshole phase. more
David Gilmour Girls
I had heard the name Sonic Youth before, and today I found a link to them on a fun little page that, along with material from the "great idols," occasionally dives into something different. I thought it's now or never. So, I listened to almost all of Daydream Nation... I'd say as harmless as chamomile when you don’t even need it. Eliminated. more
Loop
they have something hypnotic, something that acts on the brain and tends to stupefy those who listen to them more
Negazione -Condannati a morte nel vostro quieto vivere
Rage, blind fury, malaise, madness, despair. 11 minutes at breakneck speed, absolutely mind-blowing. "We" through the ages. more
Bathory
Dad!!!!! more
