Queen — Sheer Heart Attack | DeRank™: 5,74

Third grandiloquent chapter of the Queen that I prefer by far. A fantastic and flawless record, although much less "progressive-fantasy" and more Hard-Rock than the two previous ones. Magnificent, nonetheless. "Lily of the Valley." 8.5-9. more

Paul Masvidal | DeRank™: 1,21

Five stars just for having played, at a very young age, on the "Human" album by Death; and he is the leader of Cynic where he created a sound that, starting from Technical Death Metal, has then transformed into a Progressive-Fusion entity directed towards infinite space... TRACED IN AIR... more

Franco Battiato — Apriti sesamo | DeRank™: 1,91

More methodical and "mystical" than his predecessors. Among the tracks, the lively "Passacaglia," the only carefree piece that almost takes us back to the goliardic spirit of Franco made in the '80s; "Quand'ero giovane," a pompous mid-tempo adorned with aging memories, and the opener "Un irresistibile richiamo," which showcases the usual abstract lyricism typical of the Sicilian artist. more

The Black Keys | DeRank™: 0,00

The first three albums, ranging from garage to a more classic blues rock, are excellent; then, aside from an interesting funk-R'n'B twist in "Brothers," there's nothing particularly remarkable. more

The Sound | DeRank™: 0,87

Once, I would have said that Joy Division were the pinnacle of the entire British wave. Today, however, I assert that it was The Sound, more than anyone else, who best represented that musical and artistic period. more

Titus Andronicus — The Monitor | DeRank™: 0,94

In addition to its musical merits, this album is an example of how to tackle historical themes in music without falling into the kitschy or becoming excessively melodramatic. more

Dion | DeRank™: 0,94

Àlacre. Or ...alàcre? Mmh... no, it's àlacre, it's a proparoxytone, like the middle ground between doo-wop, pop-rock, and R&B in which this great artist navigated for a lifetime, ending up among the ranks of forgotten songwriters. more

De...Marga...
Of all the not particularly extensive discography of the band, this second album chronologically is my favorite; eleven tracks in just over forty minutes. Perfect songs that cleverly balance immediacy and energy; thanks particularly to Andy's nimble guitar and Stewart's multifaceted drumming; not to forget Sting's voice and bass. It's all too easy to mention "Message in a Bottle," "Walking on the Moon," and "Bring on the Night" as the standout tracks...NO TIME THIS TIME... more
