The Miracle of Lemmy is that he managed to create a project that retains its uniqueness over time, without ever becoming boring. They are brash without being ridiculous. In contrast to them, in my opinion, AC/DC gets tiresome more easily... more
Her lyrics have always made me think. One of the best singers we have in Italy. more
Trans? Interesting... and what would you infer it from? It seems that the criticism, always rather struggling with the understanding of Panellian texts, has been fairly unanimous in interpreting the piece as a description of a rape. more
Musically, it could be the child of Michael Jackson, with those keyboards and that bass line...incredible. Lucio, I adore you👐 more
The most rock of the eight tracks is, in the end, the only "minor" moment, which, however, in terms of music and lyrics, has nothing to envy to the others. Find me someone who tells me about an oceanic microwave. more
Love and non-love. Saw keyboards that first make everything harder, then become softer, and in the chorus open up like a window on Sunday morning. The keyword is rosemary. more
What can I say, my favorite track. Electric piano and funky guitar blend together in a strong and decisive melody. The lyrics need to be deciphered verse by verse, like unwrapping a chocolate, and at the end, you find the heart. more
A link between Battisti pop and Battisti bianco. Catchy melody and less cryptic lyrics than the previous ones. A monstrous bass line (do you know who the bassist is? I could place him in Olympus). more
Battisti rap. Dubstep. Dreamlike and electronic. Sorry if I'm brief here, but I'm in a mixed silk frenzy. It's pointless to define it, the lyrics speak for themselves. more
Same mechanics as CSAR. Even heavier low-end and trippy, powerful lyrics. more
Imposing bass line, gritty rhythms, and haunting keyboards. A text that talks (or does it?) about a transgender. How can you not love an album that starts like this? more
I'm not really convinced by everything on this album; perhaps there are a few too many divertissements (I could have done without tracks like "Mezzanotte" and "Kriminal"), or a track like the title track, which overall isn't bad, but for its standards feels a bit too easy. Yet those remaining five tracks are each more beautiful than the last, especially the extraordinary "Modena" with that haunting sax by Gato Barbieri: probably his greatest masterpiece. "Tanto valeva avere parlato già da allora, quando tutto era da fare e tu non eri importante.." more
First song listened to by Venditti. I had started with the classic stereotypes of the "Roman singer" kind, but after those four fateful minutes, everything dissolved like a little puff of smoke. A short text based on a simple metaphor that ultimately reaches levels that verge on poetry. more
Rhapsodic writing and a strong desire to explore the lights and shadows of American society. more
Are you serious? Marasco isn’t on the DEB? Nini, we’re not doing justice to Florentine music here. Oh Debaseriani, you’ve exiled him, taking the shit that God has sent you. more
As a long-time admirer of the Pooh, even when writing about an album from 1972, I consider Alessandra an excellent work. My favorite. more
Well... it's only worth it for "Minuetto" and "La Nevicata Del '56." He may have been a mobster jerk, but we need more authors like him today. I give it a 4 and not a 5 just because he alternated beautiful songs with ridiculous crap. more
What can I say? I have nothing more to say about him. The vote speaks for itself. more
Nobles out of time more
The album that introduced me to Antonello, and that I am absolutely most attached to, is this one. A wonderfully sparse and raw album, with indelible gems like the incredibly tough "Mio padre ha un buco in gola," the powerful "Brucia Roma," the heart-wrenching title track, or the stunning "Le tue mani su di me." Oh, and then we also find a new version of "E li ponti so' soli," this time played only with the organ, which really enhances it. Great album. more
