I&W and Awake are two stunning albums. Then, unfortunately, they got dragged down by the immense egos of Portnoy and Petrucci, who were competing over whose was bigger! more
Dream Theater
As a technique, nothing transcendental; dozens of other bands can double them without any problems. Taking away the technique, what remains are the songs and the attitude: the ballads are often ridiculous, while the more upbeat ones are more enjoyable. The attitude is cloying. I followed them for years, but now they’re a bit pathetic, all things considered. more
Dream Theater
excellent candidates for the worst group in history, too bad we can't give less than 1. more
Dream Theater
Sanctified: the debut is commendable, they lost their way from Train Of Thought onwards. Every musician is considered by fans to be the best in their genre, which is absolutely wrong. I give 4 for the masterpieces crafted up to 2002, but Octavarium and Systematic Chaos are perhaps the lowest point ever reached by a prog metal band. more
Candice Night
wonderful interpreter, she managed to sing "Child In Time" without being outshone by Ian Gillan, and that says a lot; she is also an excellent songwriter and musician. If Ritchie Blackmore has managed to reinvent his career and not become an old relic, it is largely thanks to her. more
Jerry Garcia
Lysergic acid, psychedelia, rock, country, blues, jazz, and unforgettable melodies. What more could you ask from a guitarist? more

The Dillinger Escape Plan
The most devastating band I've seen live... after Converge! more
Nino Rota
^^^ ...perhaps, but Nino Rota is also remembered for his chamber, operatic, and orchestral works, something that does not happen for Morricone (and which seems to bother the latter despite the two PUGNI DI DOLLARI among the most substantial sums justly allocated by SIAE each year...)! more

so ridiculous that they become pathetic and so pathetic that they become ridiculous more

Nino Rota
If it weren't for the great Maestro Ennio, he would be remembered as the greatest Italian composer of soundtracks, and not just Italian. more
Ivan Graziani
"...and the province, like an island of madmen lost in the rain, drifts away behind me...restlessness grows inside me like a cancer, yes, there’s enough of it if I let myself go..." Personally, I love it. more

personally, a very happy discovery more
