Sepultura — Morbid Visions | DeRank™: 0,00

November 1986: the first work by Sepultura on long distance is released. A production and recording quality that is dismal ruin an already crude and rough album; and it's a shame because the four very young guys, Igor has just turned 16 and the others are just a bit older, propose a Thrash-Death played without any technique, at a speed that is simply insane. The beginning of a climb toward the peaks of Heavy Music… CRUCIFIXION… more

Candlemass — Tales of creation | DeRank™: 0,00

Mystical and powerful monolith of heavy-doom metal. Completes the quadrilogy of the "fantastic four." From here on, they will never be the same again (a bit like what happened to Manowar or Metallica, to be clear). more

The turning point album for Aretha, simply one of the greatest Soul-R&B records ever conceived. Her renditions of Redding's "Respect" and Cooke's "Change Is Gonna Come" are sublime, the latter so beautiful and intense that it sends chills with every listen; then there's the rest of the album, with Franklin co-writing as many as 4 songs. A masterpiece. more

The Beatles — Revolver | DeRank™: 0,00

The time for the Beatles' most bizarre and "daring" moments hasn't arrived yet, but Revolver contains some of their best songs: Taxman, Eleanor Rigby, I'm Only Sleeping, Good Day Sunshine, For No One. more

Stormy Six — Un biglietto del tram | DeRank™: 4,95

The pages of resistance are honored in this sublime folk-prog, a cornerstone of rock in opposition. Great emotions, especially in Stalingrado and Dante by Nanni. more

Sepultura — Chaos A.D. | DeRank™: 0,33

A challenging task awaits the band: to deliver a worthy follow-up to the impetuous and violent albums "Arise" and "Beneath The Remains". From my perspective, the result is the Brazilian group's third masterpiece; we are still in the realm of imposing Thrash Metal, with the added element of a greater sonic exploration. Tracks that are more measured, with a slowed-down pace, yet without losing the auditory ferocity that Max's voice amplifies...WAR FOR TERRITORY... more

Pink Floyd — Animals | DeRank™: 5,59

The year is 1977: we are in the midst of a revolution when it comes to Music: Punk has exploded everywhere. The Pink Floyd themselves are in turmoil: Roger's desire to take control of lyrics and music begins to manifest. Animals thus represents the band's last cohesive album, with David's guitar being incisive and spectacular in the endless tracks that compose a work of not simple assimilation, claustrophobic, obsessive...DOGS... more

Black Flag | DeRank™: 0,27

Huge, I just don't understand the stubbornness about Damaged. The BF also encompass the anger and pain of My War, the jabs of Loose Nut, the avant-gardes of Family Man and The Process Of Wedding Out: in my opinion, they have represented one of the best evolutions in the rock field, often changing style but never at the expense of quality. more

Iron Maiden — Killers | DeRank™: -0,21

For many, a masterpiece; I'm not crazy about it. The NWOBHM style proposed is very reminiscent of Judas Priest, which distances itself from the atmospheres of the debut, later returning with The Number of the Beast (adopting a heavier style). A nice experiment that I've always somewhat discredited (not because it's bad, but for sounding "vaguely Maiden"). more

Candlemass — Nightfall | DeRank™: 4,03

Twilight. Darkness descends to subjugate the lost listener, the same one who calls for the voice of the prophet, to be guided through the grim lands of this dark dimension...
Inferior to the debut, but still a masterpiece. This is the album that marks the entrance of the Messiah (Marcolin) on vocals: it doesn't get more epic-domm than this! more
