Orne
Pure black prog led by the same masters who once held the reins of Reverend Bizarre... what the hell more do you want from this wretched life?! more
Ian Anderson
the minstrel par excellence.......milestone of progressive rock.......fairy-tale Irish genius more
Blue Cheer -Vincebus Eruptum
Oh my goodness, what cruelty! Monolithic sounds, distorted guitars, and at times unsettling: and we’re only in '68! A blues/rock that serves as a prologue to a progressive and gradual hardening of the sound that will involve the bands to come. A journey destined to persevere for over two decades. more
David Coverdale
A phenomenon on the microphone... Age is felt by everyone, but it has gifted us with performances that are simply breathtaking... more
Cardiacs
PRONK! more
Darkthrone
Bad and frozen! more
Areknames -Areknamés
Lately, I've been quite obsessed with this wonderful album: the 2002 debut by Areknames, back when they were still a trio, shows a superior quality. The Van der Graaf references are clear, and I like them so much for that as well. Only four stars because their second album is even better. more
Carcass
For the few chosen ones: as far as I'm concerned, they really make too much noise. Maybe I'm getting old... more
The Stranglers -La Folie
Those final 6 minutes... more
Richard & Linda Thompson -I Want to See the Bright Lights Tonight
Among the most beautiful English albums of all time. Oh wait, just "English"? more
Ahab
The most immersive funeral doom there is! more
Antonello Venditti - Francesco De Gregori -Theorius Campus
An innocent album, with colorful and tender hues; almost poetic. De Gregori already expresses his hermetic lyricism that will become more prominent in the subsequent albums with "Signora Aquilone," while Venditti condenses his popular romanticism in 3-4 gems including "Sora Rosa," a poem about adolescent restlessness, in my opinion his most beautiful piece and the only one that can truly deserve this title (I prefer it here more than in his solo albums, "Lilly" excluded). more
Lucio Dalla -Automobili
The pinnacle of the Dalla-Roversi duo, perhaps the album that most highlights the whimsical eclecticism of the Bolognese singer-songwriter in a concept album that, starting from the automobile, gives rise to a wide digression on the catastrophic advent of progress and technology. "Mille Miglia" and "Nuvolari" are anthology pieces, while "Il motore del 2000" and "Due ragazzi" bring tears. more
Tony Molina
a just Cuomo! more
Depeche Mode -Ultra
They were never my musical champions, but I love this album, the first one I bought from them and my favorite of the '90s along with Violator. From then on, I didn't follow them anymore, maybe mistakenly. "Useless" in particular is an old memory from my youth that I hold dear... more
Thulcandra
They copy Dissection with mediocre results. more
Guthrie Govan
His album has never captured me, but he knows how to play... more
Jeff Loomis
Among the various shredders, it's one of the least annoying. more

An elephant at your door! more
