Enigma
An ambitious project by the good Michael Cretu that has brought him various international successes, MCMXC a.D is an excellent Ambient album that stands among the cornerstones, repeatedly revisiting the central theme of Sadeness (a great track for the dirty deeds, lads) and stretching it out to Rivers of Belief. From "The Cross of Changes" onward, the project has lost some of its initial depth, although it still features excellent tracks like Return of Innocence and Eyes of Truth. more

Pierangelo Bertoli -Certi momenti
I believe that at certain moments
the brain can no longer think
and runs to mad refuges
and doesn’t want to return
then I fall back to earth
and lightning and thunder explode
I don’t believe in peaceful life
I don’t believe in forgiveness more

Zerocalcare -Macerie prime - Sei mesi dopo
Sequel and conclusion of the first 'Macerie prime', it is another beautiful comic book by Zerocalcare, full of his usual raw irony and the same pages/themes that are more touching and emotional. I didn't prefer it to the first issue of Macerie, which had the novelty of the story and a darker undertone (culminating in a very dark ending), but this one holds up quite well, fortunately avoiding in the ending, which is liberating after pages of continuous claustrophobic feelings, any lightening and/or consolation regarding the situations faced by the protagonists: the difficulties of life and disappointments (our characters are unable to pass the competition that could have turned their financial situation around) are always lurking around the corner; the important thing is never to lose self-control and become a bitter creature. Another point in favor - as is always the case with Zerocalcare, after all - is the figurative imagery of the key themes, always perfectly contextualized and effective. more
