He plays the role of a know-it-all intellectual in a gathering of ignoramuses. Occasionally, he gets it right by mistake, but not in music (listen to the italian songbook to believe it). With this, he has secured a peaceful retirement. more

All I have of them is the double album "Greatest Hit," and it literally made me shit: music that sounds old and pointless virtuosity just for the sake of it. more
since he was at it, he could have sent a thank-you letter to Nikola Tesla. That Nobel belonged to him. more

seen live at the gods of metal, common opinion: good, mind you good... but such a drag! more
Cute, but many technically more primitive groups (see "punk") can be 20 times more expressive. more
my final judgment: the DT are an interesting group with a remarkable sense of melody and eclecticism. They kept me company for a few months, and to this day, all I have left of them is an MP3 of "Hollow Years" that I gladly listen to during my "blue" moments. RATING 7/10. more

The DT are the most important group on the planet. Their detractors are probably still listening to music from the past. more

One of the best bands of the 70s and 80s, let's forget the 90s, they seem to have slightly come back lately, but live they are always a show. more
I doubt that the image is the real strong point even for Gigi D'Alessio. That Riccio is artistically superior is beyond question. His ideal "trilogy" of the fugitive represents one of the absolute peaks of neomelodic music, of which the good Tommy is a staunch defender (the new generation "Pop-Nap-Sound" is instead a sort of offshoot with secessionist ambitions). more
Unfortunately, the image didn't help much, but it's much better than Gigi D'Alessio, that's for sure. more
