The first phase of the Cavanagh brothers' career comes to a close in 1996 with this album, the third in chronological order since their raw debut a few years earlier. We are still, in a grand way, in the realm of Gothic Metal, but we begin to see interesting melodic inserts, less dark openings that will lead to their absolute masterpiece in the following album. "Angelica," "The Beloved," "Eternity part 1" are the standout tracks of an album close to perfection...HOPE.. more
The best Italian Progressive Rock group for at least 40 years... a legendary band with a sound that absorbs fantasy, enchanting and delicate atmospheres that rest on a top-notch professionalism. A sound that never grows old, lyrics that float on the sea of our imagination... and nonetheless provoke reflection on the meaning of life... it’s difficult to explain the music of PFM in two lines... I have always considered them the Italian GENESIS and I don’t think that’s a small thing!!! more
An exceptional guitarist, with exquisite technique at the service of a phrasing style that is not found every day. more
The best Italian Progressive Rock band for at least 40 years... a legendary group for a sound that absorbs fantasy, fairy-tale atmospheres, and grace, all built on a remarkable professionalism. A sound that never tires, lyrics that float on the sea of our imagination... and still make us reflect on the meaning of life... it's difficult to explain PFM's music in just two lines... I’ve always considered them the Italian GENESIS, and I don’t think that’s a small thing!!! more
In an album significantly worse than the others, there's only one track that stands out: this one. A profound lyrics, well-crafted arrangements, but above all that strange atmosphere that is felt every time a musician is about to compose for the last time some rhythm or melody from their instrument: this is the case of the great and unmatched Jeff Porcaro, drummer of Toto, who wraps up his legendary career in the world of music by magnificently supporting this piece... he would pass away the day after playing the drums we hear in this track... goodbye Jeff! more

Do you want to fool your friends? Let them listen to this record, claiming it's an unreleased album by Yes from their golden period. They'll surely believe you and say it's beautiful... and it really is. more
Chuck Billy and Eric Peterson had very clear ideas at the end of the nineties: to release an album that combines immense musical power with an extraordinary technical level. So they called upon three musicians who, in their already long careers, have made their monstrous technique a point of pride: James Murphy, Steve DiGiorgio, and especially Dave "double bass" Lombardo provide deadly assistance and contribution to an unmatched record!!!...SEWN SHUT EYES... more
I remember their concert at the "Monsters Of Rock" in Reggio Emilia: it was September 12, 1992. They played after Pantera and before Megadeth, Black Sabbath, and Iron Maiden: at the beginning, an imposing Chuck Billy approached the front row audience and started spitting on the crowd!! Then they kicked off the Music and it was PANDEMONIUM... The best of that thrilling day!!!!!!... DO OR DIE... more

The greatest comedic singer of today, sponsored by "Amaro letale - Voglio il peggio." His concert "Live at... Casa Mia" is already booked! Taking it "seriously," considering the comedian's style, 3 and a half stars. more
A great deal for those who built it, tattooed it, and brought it to television... In short, a successful entrepreneurial idea... Of course, dignity is another matter... more
Terrifying, tacky Teutons. more
Remarkable mix of jazz and drum and bass. more
Pop bands like that, today we can only dream of them! Exquisite arrangement skills and creativity even when it came to getting on the airwaves... Today's bands don't think about that... more
