Freaked-out and shattered priests searching for perpetual redemption, who when they pick up their instruments can shape matter like few others, at least among contemporaries. Aaron Weiss, hypertrophic and verbose lyricist, and a man of great genuineness and spontaneity. Personally, I adore them. more

Francesco Guccini -Canzone dei dodici mesi
ThorsProvoni
Looking at the world through the eyes of another human being, discovering each month of the year how time passes, transforming the world out there and inside you. Every time I listen, I dive into myself and discover that it is beautiful to live.
And if it sounds too sugary as a definition, grab a very bitter coffee... more
Virgin Steele -Nocturnes of Hellfire & Damnation
Harlan
It’s hard for me to consider this work as an album by Virgin Steele. Too many tracks dragged out excessively, some disjointed (Devilhead, Glamour, Fallen Angels), others where the now-faded voice of Defeis is irritatingly not utilized to its best (Delirium, We Disappear), with only a few songs worth saving (Black Sun-Black Mass, Persephone), all surrounded by a disgraceful production and endless shrieks and meows. I can agree that the band doesn’t want to release an album that’s the same as the last one, but if Defeis had continued down the path taken with the underrated The Black Light Bacchanalia, we would now be talking about another masterpiece. But unfortunately, that’s not the case. more

However, the girl's father discovers the bond between the young lovers and, furious, moves with his daughter to a distant village for some time in order to make her forget the suitor: Lorenzo Daza, a ruthless mule trader, indeed aims to marry his beautiful daughter to a man far more important than a mere telegraph operator and cannot bear the thought of the young couple's infatuation obstructing his plans for social advancement.

Gabriel García Márquez -L'autunno del patriarca
Stanlio
On the day of the dictator's death, who for time immemorial has governed the fate of the state, a crowd of citizens bursts into the presidential palace and watches in astonishment the countless bird cages, the dung fires that the general used to light at night, the cows grazing in the courtyards. Once already, the old dictator had made it seem as though he was dead when his lookalike, Patricio Aragonés, was poisoned in a plot... (wiki) more

Gabriel García Márquez -Nessuno scrive al colonnello
Stanlio
Compared to the previous stories, in this novel, naturalism is tempered by a cynical humor and the proliferation of a series of symbols such as the rooster, the waiting for the mail, and hunger. The rooster, in particular, as a reminder of the deceased son and a vehicle of solidarity among the villagers, symbolizes the redemption of a continent, Latin America, that will never happen.
