Died Pretty — Free Dirt | DeRank™: 1,73

Desperate post-punk vocals, new wave attitude, strong folk undertones, a guitar framework reminiscent of Albion blues, and an organ usage that seems to pay tribute even to Ray Manzarek and his Doors. more
Depeche Mode -Black Celebration

pioneers of electronic pop, in the early 80s. They created an unmistakable sound that has survived personal crises, changes in trends, and generational shifts. more

In Timoria, a truly badass singer, a spectacle of voice. Then came the Sanremo twist... and his talent was flushed down the toilet. more

Sepultura -Beneath the Remains
De...Marga...
It’s the hands of Scott Burns that produce and guide the still young Brazilians for their third album in 1989. Finally, the sound is worthy of the name: it amplifies and enhances a deadly work, which consecrates them as one of the most uncompromising, brutal, and fast bands on the planet. An acoustic arpeggio, reminiscent of "Battery" by Metallica, opens the album and the title track, bursting immediately into a hyper-violent wild Thrash-Death; then comes "Inner Self." We're just getting started... more

Beth Gibbons & Rustin Man -Out Of Season
Marco Salzano
Highly refined debut of the beautiful and talented (but criminally scarce in output) Beth Gibbons alongside bassist Paul Webb, who retrieves certain diluted post-rock atmospheres from the more experimental Talk Talk. The seductive Mysteries enchants with its folk purity while Tom the Model pays tribute to the "cold" soul of the great Nina Simone. more
The Decemberists -The Crane Wife
SilasLang
It's funny that the only album by the Decemberists that I truly liked is essentially a prog record. Because that's what 'The Crane Wife,' from 2006, is. Quite fascinating progressive-pop for me. I was listening to it again this morning. I still like it. more
King Crimson -A Scarcity Of Miracles
Marco Salzano
Meditative and shadowy project, signed by Jakszyk Fripp & Collins, built on the volatile breath of Fripp's soundscapes, on the discreet and elegant rhythms of Levin and Harrison, on the fluid, reverberated fingerpicking of Jakszyk, and on the sublime ripples of Collins' ethereal sax, which often and willingly shake the music from its lethargic torpor. Best tracks: Scarcity, The Price We Pay, The Other Man, The Light of Day. more
Jethro Tull -Too Old To Rock 'n Roll; Too Young To Die
Marco Salzano
From an aborted musical about a middle-aged rocker, it's the most mainstream album (up to that point) by the Tull (but the musical wouldn't have dealt with medieval mysteries) yet not lacking some subtleties (like the Beethoven quotation in the last track). The lyrics still bear Anderson's sharp style. Besides the acoustic Salamander, I enjoy From a Dead Beat to an Old Greaser, the title track, Crazed Institution, and The Chequered Flag. more
Steven Wilson -Grace For Drowning
Marco Salzano
Truly a beautiful album, in line with a revival of certain sounds from classical prog, featuring Steve Hackett as a guest, by the way. A track like Rider II is clearly the result of sleepless nights remixing "Lizard"... more
