Janis Joplin — Pearl | DeRank™: 0,00

The best of Joplin, the most successful album. A little gem. And then the voice, a pure mix of heroin and southern comfort. 4.5. more

Very good, perhaps it's time for him to release something given the amount of unreleased material he's accumulated... it’s been 9 years since he disappeared from the music scene... more

Massimo Volume — Lungo I Bordi | DeRank™: 0,00

I have read and heard excellent things about this work, but after several months of repeated and persistent listening, I still haven't digested it... perhaps spoken music rather than sung music doesn't fully convince me. The lyrics, however, are beautiful. more

AFTERHOURS — Quello che non c'è | DeRank™: 0,00

A dark and disillusioned album, with hard and raw lyrics and dense, full sounds, thanks in part to the increasingly central role of Dario Ciffo's electric violin. Following the exit of Xabier Iriondo, Manuel's role as the sole guitarist becomes even more significant. The result is nonetheless surprising, with songs like the title track that will go down in history as one of the best Italian pieces ever. Definitely an album to have in the collection of anyone who loves Italian alternative rock. more

Afterhours — Non è per sempre | DeRank™: 0,00

It's hard to maintain the same level as the previous work (Are you afraid of the dark?), but the After continue their metamorphosis. In fact, each album is quite different from the ones before, with very different sounds and styles. This is a work that is surely less experimental and more POP. Nevertheless, I think it's a really good piece of work, with beautiful tracks like "Bianca," "Oceano di gomma," "Non si esce vivi dagli anni '80," "Tutto fa un po' male," and the final track "Cose semplici e banali." The title track is stunning live. more

Afterhours — Germi | DeRank™: 0,00

First album in Italian for After (1994) after their debut in English. A powerful and hard-hitting album, featuring several gems (Strategie, Dentro Marylin, Ossigeno, POP...). It's a shame that live they have almost completely abandoned this album, which we can consider not only a good work but also a stepping stone to the magnificent "Hai paura del buio?" from '97. more

Cluster — 71 | DeRank™: 3,00

Untitled 3, a beautiful 21-minute beetle solo... I am Esterre (but I am not) I can't really appreciate it: harmful even in the periauricular area, I can even perceive areas of my brain damaged by the buzzing inflicted on me nonchalantly by this combo of sonic terrorists. So many wasted tapes! more

Kiss — Double Platinum | DeRank™: 0,00

I have read and heard around the web that Kiss is just a commercial and image phenomenon, but after listening to this compilation of 20 tracks, I am convinced that even from a musical standpoint, they are not a negligible band. Beautiful "I want you" and "Black diamond." An honest compilation, especially good for approaching the discography of Simmons & Co. more

Pink Floyd — Echoes | DeRank™: 0,00

I must admit my ignorance regarding Pink Floyd, as I only own this collection of the band. However, it seems to me that the collection is quite complete, featuring tracks from the 70s up to 1994, and it's very enjoyable. "Echoes," "Comfortably Numb," "Shine On You Crazy Diamond," and "High Hopes," especially with that spectacular final guitar solo... great album! more
Afterhours -I Milanesi Ammazzano Il Sabato
CONDOM85
I’ve never fully embraced this album, even though I love the After to bits. The sound is overly polished, resulting in just a big mess, and the songs are boring and trivial. Personally, I only save "E' solo febbre," "Dove si va da qui," "Tutto domani," and the title track. The rest is a disappointment. But we can forgive them a misstep, right!!!!!! more
Il Teatro Degli Orrori -Il Mondo Nuovo
CONDOM85
It took me a few months to digest this "brick" of 16 tracks and over 70 minutes, but in the end, I find it at least satisfactory. There are some dull moments like the very slow "Ion," but a few gems too ("Io cerco te," "non vedo l'ora," "Doris"). In my opinion, it's the worst of the three releases by Capovilla & Company so far. more

Afterhours — Padania | DeRank™: 0,00

After the incredibly disappointing "I milanesi ammazzano il Sabato" of 2008, here comes the old Manuel Agnelli, at the ripe age of 45, back to make us dream...in my opinion, one of the most complete albums by the Milanese band, with the return of the great Xabier Iriondo on guitar...a must-have CD! more

Moby — Play | DeRank™: 0,00

If the album had only 10-11 tracks instead of 18, there would be 5 balls... unfortunately, several pieces give a strong impression of being "fillers," and the album seems a bit verbose in my opinion. However, it’s still another enjoyable and listenable record. more

The Cure — Greatest Hits | DeRank™: 0,00

I've grown up with this Ciddì, so there's a certain emotional attachment... it's a nice collection of historical pieces, even if it misses my favorite by The Cure, which is "Burn" (the one that was the soundtrack for "The Crow," just to be clear). more
