THE HYDROMATICS -POWERGLIDE
Garage rock, rock n roll. 2001. more
Elodie
The Carah Delevingne of our time, where Capitalism and Goodism go hand in hand to a scary extent. more
Male Gaze  -Gale Maze
post punk VS garage more
Ed Sheeran -The Orange Room EP
Here he had not yet entered the Music Biz world, so I give it a 6 POLIO. more
Ed Sheeran -÷
Includes hits such as "Castle on the Hill," "Galway G," "Barcelona," "Perfect," "Happier," and of course the web record of recordings "Son o' the Moon-twenty-sev...uh, "Shape of(f) you." The others, while being much less catchy, atmospherically marked the end of the last decade with [a series of acoustic riffs and loopstecion, booom!] a rare beauty on the cover... And a nice one point to confirm. more
Ed Sheeran -÷
Includes hits such as "Castle on the Hill," "Galway G," "Barcelona" [which upon the second listen I realized wasn't the cover of Freddie M.y's], "Perfect," "Happier," and of course the web record of recordings "Son o' the Moon-twenty-sev...uh, "Shape of(f) you." The others, while proving to be far less catchy, have atmospherically marked the end of the last decade [with strokes of acoustic riffs and loopstecion, boom!]. A cover then of rare beauty, indeed... A nice one point to confirm. more
Heinrich Denzinger -Enchiridion symbolorum, definitionum et declarationum de rebus fidei et morum
An extremely important anthology of the pronouncements of the Magisterium of the Church and the symbols of faith. more
Rino Gaetano -mio fratello è figlio unico
After numerous listens, I consider it Rino's best album. A great story of Freemasonry under false pretenses. The "trilogy of the Rose" is of exceptional quality, with excellent guitars. more
Francesco Guccini -Radici
One of the most beautiful Italian albums of all time. Vaguely Eltonian roots (Madman Across the Water), the masterpiece "La locomotiva" with its perfect balance, "Piccola città" and "Incontro," two gems reminiscent of Tumbleweed Connection, the two "Canzoni" are very prog but slightly below par. The grand finale worthy of a milestone album in Italian songwriting, the Giovanni Boccaccio of singer-songwriter music. more
Francesco Gabbani -Magellano
Third album from the singer, second with BMG Rights Management, a record to be listened to in one go, a pleasant half hour of fun and cultured references. In any case, we are still not at his maturity, if it ever arrives. more
Fabrizio De André -Creuza De Ma
Seven movements of a week in the Genoa of times gone by. Fabrizio and Mauro outdo themselves, with a language and instruments completely unusual in pop music. A milestone. more
Daniele Silvestri -Acrobati
Massive album with truly original tracks; whether it's his best will be determined in hindsight. more
Antonello Venditti -Buona domenica
After the excellent album of the previous year, this artistic and commercial flop. "Modena" raises the bar but out of 8 tracks, it's probably the only one that truly deserves it; the rest is really insufficient, especially Kriminal, which foreshadows all the silly songs to come in the years ahead. more
Francesco Messina
Great designer and friend of Franco Battiato. Wet meadows of the analogous mountain, his peak. more
Ornella Vanoni, Vinicius De Moraes, Toquinho -La Voglia, La Pazzia, L'Incoscienza, L'Allegria
[1976]

A strange, unpredictable convergence of worlds. A handful of sad, sublime songs. more
Holger Czukay, Jah Wobble & Jaki Liebezeit -Full Circle
[1982]

Flashes of alien dub-funk, from a well-oiled trio mirabilis. Unrepeatable. more
Franco Battiato -L'ombrello e la macchina da cucire
suitable for walking on cold and deserted streets, ensures comfort in the daily human despair, oscillates neurotically between immanence and transcendence without ever finding any synthesis. more
Enrico Stabellini -L'ultima estate
It is the supreme masterpiece of independent literature. Do I need to add anything else? more
