Their latest single has already pissed me off.. What a shitty band! more
Dark, mad, grotesque. Among its masterpieces, for me. Beautiful the play. more
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
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
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
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

THEY COULD BE REPTILIANS! more
emo meteor from the nineties, with a choral and heartbreaking taste, via mineral. more
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
I swear I'll pay you!!!!!! more
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

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
One of the great concept albums of progressive rock and the zenith of ELP. The centerpiece is the hallucinatory circus allegory of the fantastic "Karn Evil 9": a dazzling show of violence, human tragedies, sex, and rock’n’roll. The "brave new world" is the society of the spectacle, "The show that never ends!". The musical performance of the three musicians is breathtaking, and the interplay between keyboards, bass, and percussion reaches the stratospheric levels of the suite "Tarkus". A masterpiece! more
From the very cover, with the three heads in one body, it’s clear that this is the LP where the individual personalities of the trio harmonize best. The mysterious “The Endless Enigma” is a perfect minisuite. “From The Beginning,” a laid-back ballad with a Latin flavor from Lake, is rightly one of their most beloved pieces. “Hoedown” is a lively and sunny instrumental. “Trilogy” is beautiful as well, and how could it be otherwise when Lake sings a romantic melody with Emerson on the piano? more

Thinking head, iron stomach, and tough as nails... too bad he exorcized his obsessions so late. more
The embodiment of uselessness, or rather, the embodiment of a band. more
A veteran director who, despite having few peaks, has been able to maintain an impressive level of quality and thematic coherence over time. He tells the dignity of workers with overflowing humor and a bitterness that never turns into resignation. more
