Arnold Schwarzenegger | DeRank™: 1,48

The perfect physique, the pinnacle of old school bodybuilding, alongside Colombu and Zane, there’s never been anyone like him; today’s bodybuilders (Cartler, Coleman) do not reach his physical perfection, making their strength merely an accumulation of mass at the expense of harmony. more

Not bad "in Faccia" and "Fenomeni," nothing special about the other albums... Nothing to compare, however, with his career in Litfiba... I don't agree with those who say he's a sellout... For heaven's sake, he did his own thing; it’s obvious he chased after success and money too, but some of his political stances (like being one of the few artists brave enough to criticize the Renzi PD long before it was trendy) make me prefer him as a person over populist figures like Vasco, Liga, Jovanotti, or Zucchero, who never say a damn thing... more

They brought Prog-Metal to the world, they are metal and melodic, they are virtuosic and technical, they are the most praised and the most denigrated, they are the only ones who make me buy an album. more

Amidst the commitment and prog rock of the '70s, a little group that made such "easy" pop could fit right in. I won’t hide the fact that they had a certain class. more

King Crimson | DeRank™: 11,20

Do you know another group that has cranked out seven masterpieces in a row? I don’t... From "In the court" to "Red," nothing goes to waste... and the best part is that even after that, they don’t take it easy... more

Great poets. Wild melodies, thoughtful but also refined and saccharine. I have always loved them, all their works worthy of positive critique, masterpieces: I think of Other short stories and Once again. Alone we'll fly. more

Green Day — 21st Century Breakdown | DeRank™: 0,00

Still in a state of grace, Green Day deliver a monumental concept that, without renouncing their style, offers an endless series of songs that are sometimes more robust, sometimes more diverse, but almost always very successful, refusing to succumb to inertia and presenting intricate and dynamic tracks. Billie Joe's songwriting is consistently tense and dramatic, evoking great emotions at various moments. more

Do you perhaps delude yourselves that now that this fascist puppet-master has kicked the bucket, the little people will learn the "state secrets" about massacres, manipulated governments, kidnappings, assassinations of "uncomfortable" figures, banking crashes, and rogue intelligence services? This isn't a fairy tale. more
The Band -The Band (The brown album)
Matteo Tarchi
I would never take this album to a deserted island, because sooner or later the phone or the mp3 player would run out of battery, and I would suffer like a dog having the album within reach of "play" but never being able to listen to it again. more

When I met them many years ago (specifically 22 years ago, a lifetime), ABBA completely revolutionized my vision of the music of that time. Accustomed to the Beatles and Pink Floyd, the sound of the Swedes seemed to me something truly innovative, especially thanks to the female voices that added a touch of magic to all those extraordinary melodies by Benny and Bjorn. In short, they changed my way of judging Pop, and for many years I considered them a pinnacle in the pantheon of great art. My crush on them lasted quite a while; today I still see them as a phenomenon, but compared to other giants of the era, I find them decidedly dated and a bit too sugary. Nevertheless, great ABBA, you were a great "friend" of my youth, thank you! more

For sure, there is even less of his voice left than from the '80s. Assuming he ever had a voice. Assuming he wasn't a ventriloquist's puppet like Den Harrow. more

Phil Lynott — Solo in Soho | DeRank™: 0,13

Listened again after years. Same impression of a messy, confusing album, hindered by certain production choices that... meh. Yet, the few times I've read about it, I've always read great things. For me, a bad record. And it does not do justice at all to what Phil was with Thin Lizzy. more

As a director, he’s hit the mark with only a few titles in his career, but he’s also produced some truly mediocre stuff. However, there are two reasons why he’s made his mark in the history of horror cinema: "Nightmare" and "Scream," and for that alone he deserves recognition. Thank you, Wes, for the contribution you made to horror. R.I.P. more

Van der Graaf -The Quiet Zone / The Pleasure Dome
Dragonstar
Always captivating, even with a diminished line-up. A product that feels like a double EP contained in a single album. Perhaps not as brilliant as in the past, but with the intense "The Siren Song," the baroque harmonic dynamics of "Cat's Eye/Yellow Fever," and the rock-driven "The Sphinx In the Face," the English band lays down their trump cards to triumph once again in this recording endeavor. more
