Terrence Malick | DeRank™: 0,00

The five deserves (almost) everything. 5 films in forty years, one beautiful (Badlands), one I haven't seen (Days of Heaven), one I don't hesitate to call a masterpiece (Thin Red Line), one not perfectly successful but very captivating (Tree of Life), one so-so (New World). Now he's working on two new films (at the same time, it seems he's in a hurry) with Natalie Portman, Bale, and Blanchett. I'm curious. Anyway, great director. more

'False Cathedrals' is one of the most beautiful yet underrated albums in the emo genre that has come out. more

They took Punk and drew out Emo; along with Sunny Day Real Estate, the best. more

Most likely the best "Emo" artists of all time (When this word still meant something...) more

Medeski Martin and Wood — Combustication | DeRank™: 0,00

A dazzling debut at Blue Note for the eclectic and imaginative New York trio. The spectacular combustion ignites immediately with the funky groove of Sugar Craft (supported by the trance arpeggios of the organ and the subversive inserts of DJ Logic), continues with the Hancockian Hey-Hee-Hi-Ho and Coconut Boogaloo, and culminates in the blazing Latin Shuffle. More fragmented are the atmospheric Nocturne (featuring prepared piano and percussion) and Whatever… with the recital by Steve Cannon. more

Elio Petri | DeRank™: 0,15

I find it genius; some of his films I couldn't digest, like Todo Modo, too visceral for me, but all it took was seeing a quiet countryside setting to dispel any doubt about his talent. I believe that movies like The Tenant and Shining wouldn't be the same without Petri's film. more

Keith Emerson — Inferno (Original Soundtrack) | DeRank™: 0,00

First and finest solo album by Emerson, who uses for the soundtrack of Argento's film some themes intended for a second Piano Concerto. The leitmotif is a melancholic and unsettling melody in minor, which is then revisited, varied, and developed by an orchestra with accents that are sometimes romantic, sometimes expressionistic. Our Verdi is referenced in the tight jazz rock Taxy Ride (Nabucco) and in the choral Mater Tenebrarum (Requiem). Aside from this, we are closer to Komeda than to Goblin. more

Yngwie J. Malmsteen | DeRank™: 3,33

I consider these shredders not so much musicians or composers; it's difficult for me to associate the art of music with a finger gymnast. Their guitar technique would be excellent as rehabilitation for the hand following a loss of function due to a stroke. Gymnasts of the 5 fingers. I'm just wanking off... more

Yngwie J. Malmsteen | DeRank™: 9,19

In reality, he has one major flaw: he hasn’t realized that he’s a mediocre guitarist. But precisely from a technical point of view. He should go to a good teacher who can start teaching him a bit of scales, a bit of harmony, have him do exercises with a metronome and so on; otherwise, he will always remain a guitarist who knows how to play just one scale, on one chord, and out of time! more
