GI is everything, even if Annihilation Man is everything. One record, but among the greatest records in all of hardcore. more
I’m not interested in writing where it was recorded; it’s not necessary to mention the date of its conception; what is fundamental for me about this sonic marvel is the beginning of the album, after the applause from the audience: Jerry starts an acoustic arpeggio of simple craftsmanship and beauty. Then another burst of applause, this time even more intense, and right after that Layne begins to sing... I stop, closing my eyes to meditate, filled with chills and tears... DEVASTATING... more
A beautiful and well-played album, but it's not exciting to me and I find it leans too much towards pop. In any case, Non è Francesca is better than Battisti. Sufficient. more
He was the guitarist of Alice In Chains when Layne was on vocals: that's enough for me for the five stars...HEAVEN BESIDE YOU... more
First album of the new millennium for the Liverpool band; one of the works I appreciate most from a remarkable career. Never before have the sounds expanded so much, with that veil of melancholy always present in tracks where Danny's guitar dominates; in some passages, it’s incredibly easy to compare them to the more "Gilmourian" Pink Floyd, as in the opening pair "Pressure" and especially "Release": and it’s the ending of the latter that ignites with the long guitar solo... UNIQUE... more
An ancient pagan legend of revenge, rooted in the pillars of Norse faith. The eye of Odin, the virtue of Sleipnir, the invisible flight of Huginn and Muninn. The harrowing and cold epic of a retaliation born from the fire cast by the hand of man. A fire that burns the homeland, a fire that devours men and animals, a fire that spreads the acrid scent of blood on the ice... more
Genius music in its simplicity. Creator of the viking and of profound works of significant artistic depth. more
Psycho-fuzz free-form acid trip. It induces dizziness. more

The most complex of the band. The flute parts are less intrusive and more space is given to the saxophone, which adds a touch of jazz to the theatrical atmosphere of this work. more
The most sincere descent into the hell of the Industrial branch. Best piece, Invocation: a grim and symphonic dance with tribal tones. You will be captivated by the darkness. more

Cop Shoot Cop created some of the most unsettling industrial masterpieces of the last decade of the 20th century. more
I only know MY TIPE and it's really cool. more
Nick Cave, Warren Ellis, Martyn Casey, Jim Sclavunos: already members of that crazy musical association called Bad Seeds. Here gathered for a brief yet intense career, made of fierce and distorted Noise-Garage... NO PUSSY BLUES... more
I own the version with CD and DVD; recorded in various cities during the promotional Tour for the album "Obzen" between 2008 and 2009. The cover and the internal booklet prominently feature green: already a calling card that warns about the destabilizing content of an album that is suffocating, to say the least! Everything is designed to hurt during the listening experience, to induce pain, not physical but mental: heaviness, stupor, repetition of sounds that dig into the subconscious...COMBUSTION... more
