The controversial definitions

The archetype of the musician who shuts down the detractor. First, he disproves him with the production in the Beatles, then with his first two albums, he tucks him in and pulls up the covers.
"I don't expect you to understand, after you've caused so much pain.
But then again, you're not to blame. You're just a human, a victim of the insane." more

Virginia Woolf | DeRank™: 7,90

"I will continue to dare, to change, to open my mind and my eyes, refusing to be boxed in and stereotyped. What matters is to liberate one's self: to let it find its dimensions, to have no constraints." more

Primal Fear | DeRank™: 2,53

Do you miss the Judas Priest of Painkiller and Ram It Down? These five Germans are probably the ones who come closest to their sound; they may not deliver anything groundbreaking, but they are more than enjoyable. more

Bruce Cockburn — Dancing in the Dragon's Jaws | DeRank™: 0,00

Fingers twisted around the guitar, as always, but with an enticing marimba added in. A spirit happier than usual thanks to a reciprocated love. A sunny and joyful album, unusual for the Canadian singer-songwriter. Some adore him, while others detest him; as for me, I’ll tell you this... number 1 forever, and this is the album I love the most. more

The Kinks | DeRank™: 3,50

Life ain't so happy in your little Shangri-la.
Ray Davies's work is anthropological, a keen participant observation of the shortcomings of modern Western man. Finally emancipated, free to drink tea, take photos, buy a proper hat, drive a thousand miles, emigrate to Australia where fortune resides. Free to fill his head with nonsense, paranoia, frustrations, with ego and its envies.
The Kinks blend self-deprecating social criticism with a melodic flair that is beyond competition. They paint provocations that have no walls, describing the great carousel of monotony with the lightness of those who know how to make fun of themselves.
These are just a few reasons that place the band among the greatest pop artists ever. The existential void that Ray sings about was relevant in the '60s of economic growth and will still be tomorrow, when the economic man continues to invent caricatures of himself. more

Bob Dylan | DeRank™: -15,03

Having been, being to this day, and unfortunately will be until the day of his departure, which I hope is on the horizon, the biggest freeloader that the history of music has ever known is directly proportional to his gigantic face of putrid excrement. more

You who only know "Aldebaran" or "Quella carezza della sera" by the New Trolls, you who know nothing of the epic of Italian prog, I look at you and I weep. more
