Deep Purple
A big career ended up at provincial festivals where it's easy to meet Spartacus' orchestra and the gladiators of Romagna. Hats off. more
Fabrizio De André -Vol. 1
3.5-4. Still unripe, yet it already contains some classics (see "Via del Campo") that will make history. more
Max Pezzali
Maximum respect for the bad luck that the mother of this brain-damaged person has had. more
Il Divino Otelma
Maximum respect for a man of great physical stature. more
Zucchero
the king of blues more
Il Divino Otelma
maximum respect for a man of high moral qualities more
Marco Mengoni
the most beautiful voice of Italian music more
Valerio Scanu
a magnificent voice, no wonder he deservedly won the Sanremo festival. It's true, he didn't write many of the songs himself, but he's someone who delivers emotions and chills. more
Dari
Unfortunately, it's been a while since they've been heard from, yet they are among the most punk things that have ever existed in Italy. Dari forever more
Max Pezzali
Maximum respect more
Overkill -Bloodletting
A step back from the previous "Necroshine," but we are still faced with another excellent product of classic thrash. A CD that is a pleasure to listen to. 7/10 more
Colour Haze -Colour Haze
A bit too drawn out, but psych/stoner as it should be. 8/10 more
Electric Light Orchestra
great pop melodies, great arrangements. I've always had a great, unhealthy passion for this band. Everyone has their skeletons in the closet. more
The Strokes -Is This It
Disk shit, ridiculous "band." A girl gave it to me (who else? "Oh my God, Juliaaaaaaan!!! How coooool!")... Stuff that's as sterile as it is useless. If this was the rebirth of Garage Rock bands like Pussy Galore, Oblivians, and even Reatards were Satan himself. Five idiots more interested in poses and cool outfits than in music. Sold it off in a flash. more
Patto -Hold Your Fire
Untameable blues voice, liquid beautiful guitar, great rhythm section, jazzy rock. The highest possible rating. more
Tommy Lee Jones -Le Tre Sepolture
The greatest Tommy Lee of all time. Period. A true masterpiece of the "frontier" genre, among the most beautiful of the last decade; the cherry on top is the presence of the late Levon Helm. more
Stanley Kubrick -Lolita
Oppressed by its own length, but above all (when all is said and done) by the absolute untranslatability of Nabokov to the screen. All the brilliance, all the Genius of the novel gets lost here. Nevertheless, it was by no means terrible. more
Ang Lee -Lussuria - Lust, caution
Fascinating and tragic period depiction, with only a hint of self-indulgence on the aesthetic side. Extraordinary performance by Tony Leung. Perhaps not entirely deserving of the Golden Lion won, but a fantastic film. more
Black Tambourine
Seminal cult band that, at the dawn of the 90s, produced a handful of lo-fi shoegaze tracks. Just ask about The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart, The Manhattan Love Suicides... more
Emis Killa
Great rhymes, great emotions. Mind-blowing rap. more
