Rock trio from Boston, Massachusetts, creates atmospheric melodic rock, sometimes shoegaze, sometimes acoustic. They make albums with landscapes on them. more
Super-concise album, songs stripped to the essentials, but they work well. These are folk songs with a pop structure and melodies, lyrics reminiscent of '90s emo (to be clear, it vaguely reminds me of Sunny Day Real Estate, without the cliché '00s emo tropes about suicide and depression, but with a strong sense of melancholy). Clearly, the biggest limitation is the brevity of the songs and the simplicity of the arrangements. It's a great record to listen to if you have 20 minutes to relax. more

"Milano Calibro 9" is one of the most beautiful Italian noirs of all time, but there’s also "La mala ordina" and "Il poliziotto è marcio" with that nice view of Luc Merenda... more
TV jingle composer when Mediaset was still called Fininvest, he only needed "Casa Vianello" and "Il Pranzo è servito," but before that there was Round D Minor, the soundtrack for Grand Prix, a program about motorsport...also a great arranger behind many artists. more

Listening to "Splendido il Piccioni," you'll feel like you're in an Italian comedy from those happy years... more
I place him in second place after Morricone along with Piccioni, delicate and refined; I also embrace electronic music with excellent results, especially as soundtracks for genre films, which at times were worth watching just to hear the background music. more
...and when you compose for a film by Bud and Terence, there’s little else to add, authors of theme songs for cartoons and TV shows during the 70s and 80s. more
What can I say, the best of my adolescence branded by 90s British pop... more
For me, the greatest Italian director of all time is from Totò to Amici Miei, through the Armata Brancaleone, with him Sordi gave his best, especially in "Un Borghese piccolo piccolo," among the most beautiful Italian films of all time... more
Just like Lucio Fulci, without them horror movies would have been a killer chasing the unfortunate victim with a knife in hand...Master in every sense...honored by Lynch in Twin Peaks and Black Sabbath took inspiration for their name from one of his early 60s films that features Boris Karloff, the real Frankenstein. more
Among the most underrated Italian directors of all time in the USA, revered by Tarantino and Raimi, he boasts films that are nearly masterpieces in their genre. Not everyone knows that he was also a lyricist, writing for Celentano as well. Chapeau. more
Not a throwaway album, as many would say. It’s the album of discontinuity compared to the recent works, perhaps light, but it flows beautifully. more

A young promise of New Zealand pop-rock, she produces music in the sub-genre bedroom pop. She rose to fame in 2017 worldwide (except in Italy?!) thanks to the success of her debut LP, "Morningside," and especially the single "Lucky Girl." Our artist can be listed among those who became famous through word of mouth (or rather, through reposts) on the web. more
Electronic pop-rock singer-songwriter. It’s definitely one of Bugo’s most underrated albums, if not THE most underrated. It may sound harsh, but if you listen closely, it’s clear that Bugo has made giant strides in his lyric writing here. more
I seriously think that music listeners should stop talking about the Beatles. Between the ignorant fans who credit them with inventing the lightbulb and the detractors who refer to Scaruffi's disgraceful review - in which they are thoroughly demolished in a silly and nonsensical way - I believe I've only come across two or three decent opinions in my entire life. more
