A beautiful experiment of Progressive Rock made in Italy, with a superhuman Chirico in the suite "Distruzione" (I personally prefer him here compared to Arti & Mestieri). Hats off. more
Incredible how, despite such a silly name, they managed to fool half the world. more
It's a shame not to have them at hand... I would make them fly out of the window... more
The poignant and melancholic genius of Warren Ellis ... Ocean Songs more
MyGod, what stuff. more
Anyway, it's always been somewhat of a mystery to me that a track like "Any Colour..." is rarely, if ever, mentioned, despite being one of those that is least similar to the other tracks in terms of refrain. more
Norwegian budding psychopaths will kill us all. They just need to delight our ears with their auditory delusions first. Unique, especially in One-Armed Bandit, truly transcendent. more
Musicians with a big attitude, they form more or less an armored division of the Wehrmacht (in terms of number, of course). They span between prog, funk, and jazz with disarming simplicity, and when you hear them live, you can really tell how much they love their craft. And then, the talk box in "sleeping" really gets me (censored) in my pants. more
Nothing to say. Chill-out more
Masterful work. Two minor flaws: the clean/scream vocals are still somewhat inexperienced (it's only the second album), and the linear structures of the tracks reveal at certain points a faint flattening that, however, does not overturn the pleasant fluidity of the music. Excellent the solemn Walhall and the closing instrumental (engaging enough not to suffer from the absence of Vratyas’s vocals). more
Finally the Punk Rockers Are Taking Acid more
The LSD March more
With this album, Fossati reaches the limit, arriving at the border of what is, by definition, the Italian singer-songwriter genre. A limit he will never want to surpass, by a conscious and shareable stylistic choice, but one that leaves other possibilities unrealized that could have emerged. In the end, during this long coexistence of the musician with the singer-songwriter, the latter has almost always prevailed. And this is by no means a bad thing. more
Thank you to my little fairy! (26/02/2015) more
they were better in the beginning, with really great albums like "Kerplunk" and "Dookie," even though I didn’t mind "American Idiot," it’s a shame they changed so much. more
For me, their best, along with Space Ritual from a couple of years later. "Master of the Universe" would be enough on its own to secure the album's place in history. A masterpiece... more

No words are needed to describe it... more
The sole opening track "Smocking the Day Away" is worth the purchase. A very powerful and energetic English hard-blues band from the late '60s, responsible for just a couple of excellent albums... more
The only work by the trio Clempson, Poole, and Baker, a great demonstration of blues/jazz with a touch of progressive. A power trio dedicated to improvisation, showcasing excellent instrumental technique. The last track, "Son of Moonshine," deserves special mention, featuring nearly fifteen minutes of blues with excellent jazz influences… more
