A must-have album. more
They sound good and are original. more
One of the RARE cases where I've always said shit-shit-shit and then upon hearing it, it wasn't shit. Their music isn't much to write home about, but speaking only of Him: hats off with a somersault. It's not easy to make you listen to four guitar albums without drums and with a shitty voice. Perhaps the best guitarist to emerge after 2000, or at least one of those with the most "taste." more
But how can you give zero?... better a kick in the balls than listening to one of his songs... more
They spoke until there was also Repetto, who with his lyrics managed to communicate in a direct, simple, and truly effective way. All seasoned with Max's voice, which at the time was really powerful and believable; it felt like having an older brother explaining the things of life without risking coming off as a nuisance or pretentious. They killed Spider-Man and Nord Sud Ovest Est for these reasons, and they were albums of great respect. Then, nothing. more
The best.
From "?!" to "Il sogno eretico," it continues to surprise me... I love it. more
Spiritualized have always bored me. They are grossly overrated, and Jason Pierce is inherently a megalomaniac with little sense of moderation or good taste. more
An honest one, in the end, aware that he is not making any revolution and not expressing a single new comma, but with a sincere passion for the blues and everything that is antique rock and the like. And be careful, he is definitely not a poor guitarist. more
The second best slap-in-the-face of rock 'n' roll. more
The best slap-in-the-face of rock 'n' roll. more
Grant me a Nice Sunday evening.
Or send me straight into the madness of Hermannstrasse, which is better. more
“Dites, garçcon... un Pernod.” Yes, or No. Succinct but brutal.
And still capable of influencing me, almost a century and five thousand highways and hundreds of thousands of software later. more
Captain (things that)... well, swerves that happen. Capit- ain!... It makes me cry blood what he managed to do with the reinterpretation of Mali Sadjo... more
...For me, it's a bit overrated; there are definitely better people around... more
I only save the bassist. more
Crazy laughter. more
Inimitable. more
oh, wait...I got it: it's the one with the big boobs more
My vote goes to both the album and the video. It’s among my three favorite live albums. The band accompanying the Divina is top-notch. The versions of 'In France They Kiss On Main Street' and, especially, 'Edith and the Kingpin' are far superior to the studio ones. more
Not bad for certain rarefied and dark atmospheres, plus a couple of pieces that are more than decent. However, I found the rest to be rather ugly, lacking truly valid ideas, quite boring, and with the aggravating factor of the horrible sound of that somewhat unbearable drum machine. A very immature and not too interesting debut from Lycia for me. more
