Maneskin
When I was a kid, I thought the Negramaro were metal. Listening to the Maneschi, I agree with him. more
Punkreas -United Rumors Of Punkreas
Second album for the Milanese band... A great album that kicks ass from the first to the last song! more
David Lean
Great director, creator of some of the greatest blockbusters in cinema. more
Sick Tamburo -Paura e l'amore
Good album, where GM returns in some ways to the early punk rock, interspersed with singer-songwriter pieces... more
Machine Gun Kelly
Personally hateful, but a few bits, before sinking into tedious pop punk, are nice. more
Dio -Magica
A bit slow, but the Gods are always the Gods... more
Banco del Mutuo Soccorso -Transiberiana
Beautiful album... The Bms don't suffer much from the absence of the late Di Giacomo, but they finally produce a prog album worthy of standing alongside their works from the '70s... more
Banco del Mutuo Soccorso -Urgentissimo
Good pop rock album... Nothing progressive, though! more
Ultimo
"Last" in the rankings (perhaps not in the radio charts, but definitely in mine). The Claudio Baglioni of our times, but two stars below. more
Maneskin
The classic group of the moment, plastered all over magazine covers and on every TV channel. Their success feels manufactured to me, but they've certainly made a name for themselves at Eurovision, and "Torna a casa" I liked, even more than "Zitti e buoni." For now, a fixed presence; we’ll see if in three years they’ll still be in the spotlight or will be "al chiaro di luna," hence the name. more
Juri Camisasca
A superlative exponent of the relationship between music and faith! 4 stars only because it was inconsistent. "La finestra dentro" his best, a beautiful return in the late '90s with "Arcano enigma." Where there is Franco, there is quality and Art. more

Adriano Pappalardo -Immersione
Hail joy, they've reissued this little disc. I've wanted it on vinyl for a decade, especially because aesthetically it's a bomb, both the reissue and the original. But the album...what can I say, it's the first of the diptych that elevated Pappalardo's name, thanks especially to the great presence of Lucio Battisti. And as a concept, I feel it very close to me (the relationship between man and sea, where there's always a desire to discover sunken and mysterious things; I've been diving continuously since I was going to the beach in Follonica, and this feeling is in my soul). But it’s not a masterpiece, it's a great product for sure, but not exceptional.

(P.S.: now I’m sitting here waiting for the reissue of Oh, it was about time, hoping it doesn't take two decades.) more
Lucio Dalla -DallAmeriCaruso
Excellent, it also includes some of the best versions of certain tracks from my favorite Dalla album (those who know, know they don't know). But...BUT...Caruso: while it is a beautiful song, it has pulverized the testicles due to how overplayed it is by many. more
AC/DC -Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap
Nice rock’n’roll/rock-blues album, fun, tight, and with no dull moments. And with Scott, who was a real rock’n’roll animal (I still think that Marta from Lupo Alberto wasn’t the best possible replacement...). All great tracks, even though they don’t overly thrill (me), this album and all its peers up to 1979 in the genre have no flaws. Oh, what’s due to Caesar... more

In '75 he moves to Barcelona.

He studies Spanish Philology at the University of Valencia.

The Beatles
My idols forever. Inimitable, unrepeatable even in the quirks of their discography. more
