Burial
It remains my favorite in the genre for now. Untrue I have consumed. more
Mike Oldfield -Incantations
Perhaps Oldfield's most ambitious suite, inspired by the music of Native Americans with the rigor of minimalist Glass. The title comes from the magical formulas of spells, from which the repetition of the same motif is performed by various instruments in all possible keys, much like in nursery rhymes. With David Bedford leading the strings and choir, Maddy Prior singing a poem by Longfellow over the percussion of Jabula and the hypnotic vibraphone of Pierre Moerlen. more
Helmet
Meantime is one of the 10 most beautiful "heavy" albums of all time... more
Pholas Dactylus
Precious One of a Kind of the most elite Italian prog. Apocalyptic verses declaimed over a series of complex yet robust instrumental frameworks created by the great and underappreciated guitarist Lello Colledet. Notable especially is the final part of side B where, over a sinister and childlike vocal melody reminiscent of "Profondo Rosso," Paolo Carelli's over-the-top voice describes a desolate post-nuclear holocaust. more
Train
Their latest single has already pissed me off.. What a shitty band! more
Tom Waits -The Black Rider
Dark, mad, grotesque. Among its masterpieces, for me. Beautiful the play. more
Procol Harum -Something Magic
Not so Magic but certainly not so Tragic, this is because the acclaimed duo Brooker-Reid rarely disappoints in terms of songwriting. And so, despite the Yamaha GX-1 synthesizer instead of the Hammond being a bit hard to swallow, the following tracks are absolutely worth seeking out: the delicate waltz Skating On Thin Ice, worthy of "Grand Hotel"; the smoky Strangers in Space, a languid and rarefied blues; The Mark of the Claw, decent dark-hued rock from Grabham. For fans only, the orchestral recital The Worm and the Tree. more
Peter Hammill -A Black Box
Dropped by Charisma, Hammill self-produces (playing guitars, keyboards, and drum machines) one of his most compact and focused albums. The A-side features dry and essential tracks ("Fogwalking," with the horns of his trusted David Jackson, is among his masterpieces, while "The Spirit," "Losing Faith in Words," and "Golden Promises" are also excellent). On the B-side, masterfully crafted, shines his first solo suite: pure Hammillian distillate, handled with care! more
Traffic -The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys
With the ceaseless tabla of Rebop in the background of the mysterious “Hidden treasure” and the rural violin of the underrated Rich Grech on “Rainmaker,” the sound of the new Traffic prog gains more substance, just as Winwood's lyrics rise in depth in the hypnotic “The Low Spark…,” a disconsolate condemnation of the music business. The best review of the album for me was, if I'm not mistaken, from Rolling Stone: “relaxing and exciting at the same time.” more
The Police -Zenyatta Mondatta
Released in the midst of the Police madness, with the band touring the world, for me it feels a bit too stretched out and suffers from excessive monotony in the arrangements. The best tracks are on side A, especially the R&B of "When the world..." and the ska of "Canary in a coalmine." "Bombs away" is one of Copeland's best pieces. Disappointing are "Behind my Camel," Summers' undeserved Grammy, and the atrocious "Shadows in the rain," which was done much better by Sting in his solo Fusion style. more

Thin Lizzy
THEY COULD BE REPTILIANS! more
Penfold
emo meteor from the nineties, with a choral and heartbreaking taste, via mineral. more
Anima Mundi -The Way
Third album (2010) for the Cubans Anima Mundi. Hints of "Close to the Edge" for the suite in a symphonic prog predominantly airy, elegiac, and sunny tones. In some cases, it’s a bit redundant, but considering the genre, it's acceptable. An excellent album that is enjoyable and satisfying to listen to. Rating 7.5. more
Bepi & The Prismas
I swear I'll pay you!!!!!! more
Vincent Price
His unsettling elevator organ strumming and his Puppet Swing Band in The Abominable Dr. Phibes will convert musicians. Who remembers the video of An Englishman in New York by Godley&Creme? Forever...eternally! more

Vincent Price
Among the most eclectic, charismatic, and expressive American actors. And also among the most underrated, probably. Among the many gems, his magical duel with Karloff in The Raven is one to be remembered in history. more
