The soul of Pearl Jam. Electroacoustic, meditative, epic but without any false rhetoric, rather insisting on emotional sincerity. more
The greatest of all time more
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
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
His albums are recommended in the pre-asshole phase. more
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
they have something hypnotic, something that acts on the brain and tends to stupefy those who listen to them more
Rage, blind fury, malaise, madness, despair. 11 minutes at breakneck speed, absolutely mind-blowing. "We" through the ages. more
Dad!!!!! more
A loud kick in the ass more
I prefer Ilaria. more
These EPs are awesome. "Niente" and "Tutti pazzi" (especially the latter) are masterpieces. But the 1984 EP "Mucchio selvaggio" (which I don't have an original of) is even better; it sounds like crap and is even more insane. more
this human being is the English music of the last 30 years. A legend has it that in '88 he threw Bobby Gillespie out of the offices of his "Creation" for wearing a Guns'n'Roses t-shirt. Many unforgettable pages of English rock have been written with his pen. more
Extraordinary. Their EPs are among the most beautiful ever; I think of "Mucchio selvaggio" and "Condannati a morte nel vostro quieto vivere," but even "Tutti pazzi" makes a damn good impression. more
So much LSD, yeah. more
Live/Dead among the best Live albums of all time. more
