Great vocal qualities, it's a shame about the downward spiral they've embarked on... more
From the darkest black to the most hypnotic dreamscape, from black ambient to Norse and Viking mythology, among the founding fathers of one or more genres. A pagan, a modern-day Viking. A master. A politician who would stand out in today’s bleak landscapes. An incendiary, a madman, a murderer - but in self-defense - a legend. A feral voice, a nightmarish growl. Paralyzing guitar, frost, darkness. Beyond every limit. An extremely cultured man. A friend. more

More logical that a contrary exists. Where did God come from? The only solution is that there is something, which I call God, that does not need time to exist, as if it were a multidimensional vector space, seeing time as we see space, and space as a line. He established the rules of the universe, therefore He is the Supreme Good and the Supreme Justice. He gave us love and freedom; the faults are only ours, not His. Our Father, we should all follow Him. more
Braveheart is perhaps the most beautiful, grand, spectacular, magnificent film ever. Historical and niche films, like the 3 Mad Max. The 4 indispensable Lethal Weapons. Ransom, Air America, Maverick, Love Forever... As a director, another imposing work, The Passion. Apocalypto, nothing special, but exceptionally well-made. And a coming soon about the Vikings, performed in Saxon and Norse. Great presence, big muscles. A true tough guy, a true Christian, a true integralist conservative. I admire him. more

It copies/inspires Patton, but that's exactly why I like it :) more
Heartless Enemy more
The largest and most original formation that the American scene of the '90s produced. A stunning example of total music, open to a mix of influences and suggestions that are only partially decipherable and catalogable: "free-form" Zappa-like with progressive flavors stemming from the astral creativity of a brilliant and unparalleled musician, Trey Anastasio, a Jerry Garcia of our times with few rivals. Sensational. more
EJABBABBAJE! EJABBABBAJE! EJABBABBAJE! EJABBABBAJE! ♥ more
The most shocking alternative to the standards of British Prog. A historic formation, unattainable for originality and artistic proposal, while simultaneously unclassifiable. The epic saga of an imaginary space civilization translated into music in the forms of a Coltrane-like avant-garde and terrifyingly experimental, with hints of Euro-classicism and Eastern European folk music. Furious and devastating instrumental mastery, extreme improvisation, and polyrhythmicity. A journey into the unknown. more
A champion and the highest interpreter of Canterburian aesthetics. Before the accident, a fanciful and unpredictable drummer. A unique and unmistakable vocal timbre, melancholic, dolorous, "the saddest voice in the world" according to the English critics. A professional Dadaist and a convinced devotee of a very personal ideal of "music of the absurd." A spokesperson for an art that is "different," whimsical, elusive, and an enemy of labels and conventions of any kind. Pure madness of creativity. more
A good formation of "prog-like" pop, at times overly inclined towards pop in catchy and conventional choruses, as well as in the repetitive use of certain instrumental solutions and in a sound too heavily leaning on the flute. At first glance, their albums seem to lack nothing: acoustic ballads, classical temptations, and various virtuosos; but there’s little personality, little soul; among the Dutch, Supersister is truly from another planet. Pleasant at times, but nothing more. more
One of the greatest geniuses of literature of all time! Thank you, Fedor!!! more
The quintessential group of British Prog. Equidistant from the dreamlike symphony of Genesis and the glittering virtuosity of Yes, they represent the best that the English scene of those years has produced. An immeasurable career in terms of greatness and spirit of exploration, and three great masterpieces: In The Court Of The Crimson King, Lark's Tongues In Aspic, and Discipline, all indicative, in their own way, of equally significant historical transitions. Unreachable. more
Turn the page... the cover of Metallica more
Among the most original and innovative formations of European progressive (and also one of the most underrated). Jazz-prog in a vague Colosseum style mixed with a taste for exoticism and a calibrated and measured approach to improvisation. The distinctive features of this little-known Danish band are the sax-flute overlaps and the extreme clarity of the rhythm section. The self-titled album from 1970 and W.W.W. from 1971 are small gems of a sound recognizable at first listen. more
They called him Trinity. more
Eclectic but not very calculated! And there would be a long list of names fitting this definition! more
