Eyehategod
The pioneers of sludge metal and doom, a varied band with influences from southern rock and hardcore punk. They've never made an album that I've outright hated. more
Joy Division
Definitely the best. Post-punk, gothic rock, and subgenres owe a lot to them. more
Gigi D'Alessio
One of the many reasons why I don’t listen to anything on the radio. I’m afraid of coming across it, hearing it, and vomiting. more
Vasco Rossi
I’m not interested in him as an artist, but I see his music as deep, almost like a spit, and I refuse to label it as “Italian music.” more
Rihanna
The typical pop singer. It's worth nothing. more
The Cure
"Pornography" is a masterpiece. more
Lady Gaga
Its very name (and logo) means "zombie." I don't think I need to say more. more
David Hykes -Hearing solar winds
Journey into the warm and welcoming depths of the interstellar forges. A masterpiece of vocal manipulation. more
Terry Riley -A raimbow in a curved air
Masterpiece of minimal music. Supercalifragilistichespiralidoso mescaline journey. more
Steve Reich -Music for eighteen musicians
The masterpiece of Steve Reich. Absolute minimalist perfection. more
Tangerine Dream -Zeit
Journey into outer space (or inner space?!). An absolute masterpiece of electronic music. more
Popol Vuh -Hosianna Mantra
Among the most beautiful music ever heard. more
Popol Vuh -In den Gärten Pharaos
Diving into the clear and magical waters of the Garden of the Pharaohs. A pure transcendental experience in the parallel worlds of the depths of Being. more
Led Zeppelin -Physical Graffiti
Another great album by Led Zeppelin, the last truly great one in my opinion. Compared to the previous ones, this one already shows signs of decline, mainly due to its double album structure, with the band having used many tracks already recorded in previous years during the sessions for "III," "IV," and "Houses of the Holy" – basically "leftovers" that sometimes turn out to be very valid ("The Rover" is perhaps the best example, but there's also "Black Country Woman"), while at other times it's clear why they were left out. Even in the unreleased tracks, there is an alternation between fantastic pieces (almost all on the first disc, with "Kashmir" and their version of an old Louisiana gospel, "In My Time of Dying," standing out, though I have a soft spot for "Trampled Under Foot") and a couple that do very little for me ("The Wanton Song" and "Sick Again"). more
Frank Sinatra -Sinatra at the Sands
"...and the man is: Frank Sinatra!" Here recorded at his peak alongside Count Basie's big band, with arrangements by Quincy Jones, as if to say the best of the best united with the best. Frank plays and jokes with the audience and shines in performing some classics, as a perfect entertainer, while the band, tight like no other, swings wonderfully. A simply unmissable record. more
The Kinks -One for the Road
It's only Rock 'n Roll, but I like it!
One of the most powerful live albums in my collection. Setting aside the intellectualism of the previous decade (which had indeed given us some wonderful gems), the Kinks lay it all on the line and gift their fans a high-energy live performance. more
Sfera Ebbasta
Shit. That’s enough. more
Al Stewart -Between the Wars
Al's most folk soul in a nostalgic and beautifully played album. Forget about "Year of the Cat," this is elegance and class without any commercial gimmicks. more
heart -dreamboat annie
AOR of great class. Still the best work of the Wilson sisters.
"Crazy on you" still gets me going like it used to. more
Malicorne -Almanach
If you love Pentangle, you will also love the Yacoub brothers.
Sophisticated arrangements with period and electric instruments fused in harmony and refined vocal harmonies. They studied with Alan Stivell, and you can tell, but they are also very original.
Delightful the 5/4 ronde "Voici là Saint-Jean." more
