U2
After entering the 2000s, they significantly declined.
First with the nostalgia project of ATYCLB, then with the watered-down rock of HTDAAB.
I won’t even talk about the last two.
BUT, do we realize who we are talking about?
Achtung, Baby and the ZooTvTour are still the best musical image of Europe (and the world) post-wall; they captured the sound of a time.
And I’ll leave it at that, without venturing to dig any further back.
Now they are selling out, but are we sure they really cannot do anything else?

Blur
I’m going to get a ton of criticism for this, but I just can’t understand what’s so special about them! To me, they’re to good music (or at least what I consider good music) like a McDonald's sandwich is to a Florentine steak! Plastic! more
Giuliano Sangiorgi
I don't know, one of the most annoying characters ever. more
Tony Iommi
The devil's mustache more
Coldplay -Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends
Forget about the current Coldplay and listen to this pop gem from nearly 10 years ago (not coincidentally produced by Brian Eno). more
Lucariello
He doesn't like the nativity scene. more
Bethlehem
Dark Medolz. more
Lucariello
Underrated. more
Boris Savoldelli
Turbulent! His shows are kaleidoscopic experiences. more
The Stone Roses
The first album was exceptional! more
Pooh
They released some truly excellent albums (Parsifal above all) for their genre until the end of the '70s, then the absolute decline with just a few small comebacks (Uomini soli, Lettera da Berlino Est)... Don't be too harsh on them. They may not be the best, but there's muuuch worse in Italy. more
Oasis -Standing On The Shoulder Of Giants
I've never been a big fan of Oasis, but I've re-evaluated this album (one of the most underrated in their discography) quite a bit. Go Let It Out is a great song. more
Pink Floyd -The Early Singles
Together with "Relics," it's a kind of sacred text for those who especially love the early Pink Floyd. There's "Careful With That Axe, Eugene," there's "Arnold Layne"... And how can you get a masterpiece like "Julia Dream" out of your head? A treasure chest of pearls. more
Touché Amoré
"I'm not the golden boy so don’t shine me on, I’m the bastard son of romantic babylon."

Magnificent in every way, the latest album might be (might be) their masterpiece. <3 more
Miles Davis -Agharta
Stratospheric live. It's impossible to resist the charm of this wonder.
Rating: 9.5/10 more
The Doors -The Doors
Finding someone who despises this record is practically impossible.
Rating: 10/10 for life more
Franco Battiato -Patriots
Probably my favorite by Battiato. There's not a single track that I like less. more
Franco Battiato
I've never been completely convinced by him when he exaggerates with lofty flights of fancy. I find him at times brilliant in his work from the '70s, very good up until "Ferro battuto." After that, a bit repetitive. more
Pooh
Champions of national-popular bel canto, few digressions, much consensus always under the banner of love for one another. more
Aerosmith
They've always entertained me; they've always done their job, even though they've never been particularly original or brilliant. A collection of clichés staged with great skill. Now they’re due for forced retirement, mobbastaveramente though. more
