Insipid but at least genuine in its beginnings. Obscene and full of rhetoric in its continuation. more
A genuine and pleasant phenomenon at first. Then a rascal ready to take advantage of the "nothing" of the Italians. more
A drug addict with the right connections. Salvo "Front of the stage" more
SOUL POWER! more
Very great up to Pirate more
Parade is a masterpiece. Great albums in the '80s, mediocre afterwards. more
Great technique, mediocre in terms of composition. more
One of the most overrated bands ever, but Achtung Baby is a masterpiece. more
He contributed to creating great albums with Guns 'n Roses. Insipid and useless on his own. more
A hen with red hair. But the albums by Guns 'n Roses are still great. more
an American group from the early '90s that embodied the entire aesthetic of 4AD, from the beautiful covers to the sounds they offered. The first three works "Home Is Your Head," "Mouth By Mouth," "Livonia," are indescribable jewels of mysterious, shadowy atmospheres. Records for solitary autumn sunsets. more
The new Ludovico Van Beethoven. Actually, no, the new Jovanotti: he has more rhythm. more
Cretin. more
It had no rhythm. more
In alternating phases more
Light years ahead. more
One of the greatest and most fundamental singer-songwriters in the history of Italian music. His continuity is to be appreciated; his poetry will remain immortal, unaffected by the weight of passing time. One of the patriarchs of Italian light music, a great pianist with an unmistakable touch, precise and perfect in his singing.
"E Cesare perduto nella pioggia sta aspettando da sei ore il suo amore ballerina..." more
In their own right, they stand out, they dominate. Magicians and pioneers of electronic music long before it commercially exploded in the '80s. Brilliant and fascinating, robotic melodies that seep into your brain and enchant you with their simplicity on one hand, and their artistry on the other. Kraftwerk are the fathers of electronic music, or at least the adoptive fathers, as before them there were musicians who introduced the genre; however, they have laid down the foundations. more
One of the Prince's latest masterpieces, an album of extraordinary poeticness and sensitivity that also concludes the splendid "Trilogy on Love" inaugurated in 1992: "L'aggettivo Mitico," "Deriva," "Caldo e Scuro," "Sempre e per Sempre," "Natale di Seconda Mano" are wonderful pieces. Ah, there’s also a touching version of "Canzone per l'estate," written with Faber in the seventies, and "Il Cuoco di Salò," probably the most beautiful song De Gregori has written in the last twenty years. more
Among the coolest works born in the so-called "post-punk" era, this gem from these four ladies anticipates by several years certain slacker and lo-fi sounds that would become popular in the '90s...11 gems of skewed and out-of-tune (in the true sense of the word) guitar pop. Calvin Johnson will be taking notes! more
