Pioneers alongside others (My Dying Bride, Anathema...) of Gothic Metal in its truest sense, they have smoothly transitioned through various phases, changing their skin without ever completely losing their essence. Their beginnings with "Gothic" are unmatched, the new-wave phase is commendable, and then they returned to high levels with the band's latest incarnation, the most "Rock" and accessible one. A band that has never completely disappointed me, at most leaving me a bit frustrated from time to time. more
Supremely beautiful things alternated with downright rubbish. more
Absolute masters of a genre (Crust) that boasts one of the most expansive underground landscapes. A handful of top-tier albums, an unbeatable attitude, and winning ideas; in other words, the more than worthy heirs of a genre that, while not widely known on a popular level, has one of the most vibrant and qualitatively appreciated scenes. more
A masterpiece of undeniable value from a band that will never be able to replicate itself, almost as if wanting to condense all its talent into a single great work before slowly fading away. I find it impossible to pinpoint a peak in this platter for the simple reason that it is a work produced and packaged in an absolutely flawless manner. more
An interesting debut for an act that has never received the recognition it deserves. Acheron find themselves adding to the vast American Death Metal underground, despite having a career spanning over twenty years and a respectable discography. This first effort shows us a band determined in the stylistic direction to take, focused on the heaviness of the arrangements rather than on the speed of execution. more
Debut album of a seminal band that will become one of the cornerstones of American school Death Metal in the following years. An album that, while revealing a certain immaturity, widely showcases the talent of a band that will reach full maturity with the subsequent albums. A piece of history to have. more
A 12-string guitar and a Fairlight haven't traveled together so well since 1981. Some consider it the best synth album ever recorded; I just say it’s never too late to get to know them... and love them. more
Great in their early days as the supporting act for Dalla in the second half of the '70s and the first of the '80s. As "solo artists," their first albums were good until the end of the '80s, followed by a constant and sad commercialization. more
Too many friends of Vasco. more

One of the biggest Italian disappointments in 30 years. After writing songs for Michele Pecora and Stefano Sani, it seemed (I say SEEMED, okay?) that he intended to be an artist. And from the '85 album with Randy Jackson to "Oro, Incenso...", I almost believed it. Almost, and for this, I spare him. But from the '90s onwards... let's skip it, today it even annoys me to see him on TV. A fraud. He was singing "Nuovo Meraviglioso Amico" for Joe Cocker and then plagiarizing his songs. What a piece of shit friend. more
One who has proven to be a true Italian, who has always milked the state like only we Italians know how to do. more
King of Blues him?!!! Is this a joke? If he’s the king of blues, then it means Muddy Waters was Beethoven....A scriptwriter among scriptwriters and some lyrics that are nothing short of scandalous like "Il Grande Baboomba" or "Bacco Perbacco"....And what can we say about "C'è un dondolo che dondola..." Mmh, what a discovery of America you’ve made, dear Adelmo!!! more
A poet of Italian singer-songwriter music with a great sense of rock and folk... LONG LIVE DE GREGORI!!! more
