Graham Coxon: A+E
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
A crazy, stinging, and visionary mix of alternative rock, post-punk, noise rock, pop rock, new wave, and psychedelia, created by a forty-three-year-old who writes and plays with the attitude of a twenty-year-old undergoing a full creative catharsis. Brilliant, just like its creator.
Graham Coxon: Crow Sit On Blood Tree
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
One of the albums by the glasses-wearing artist that I'm most attached to comes out after the hyper-distorted "the golden d" and the (mostly) acoustic "the sky is too hygh." In terms of sound and music, it’s a sort of halfway point between the two previous ones, showcasing a rather schizophrenic and drunken spirit.
Graham Coxon: The Sky Is Too High
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
Songs written and recorded at night and dawn (and you can tell), in total solitude for therapeutic purposes, an album with a sound that is nothing less than essential.

    Really beautiful, this disc. My absolute favorite from the eyeglass-wearer is the next one, "The Golden D."

    Among his albums, the one I feel most attached to is the successor to The Golden D, Crow Sit on Blood Tree. The Golden D was the first one I listened to from the bespectacled solo artist, and I was blown away by the tough and violent attitude of that record, which I didn’t see coming. What a great punch it was!

    An enviable solo discography.

    Really, Lao, 8 solo albums of that caliber after all the masterpieces with Blur, creativity and inspiration sustained at the highest levels.
Graham Coxon: The golden d

Violent, tough, dark, gloomy, schizophrenic, paranoid: Coxon is mired in depression and alcoholism. And you can feel it.

    This little disk was cool, yes yes...
Green Day: American Idiot
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
Often underestimated for what they produced both before and after, American Idiot is instead a great album, featuring beautiful tracks, 2 "suites" of about ten minutes each perfectly constructed, and the tension that remains high from start to finish. It's a shame they neither maintained these levels nor attempted further evolution, which had instead occurred here with excellent results.

    When I was in middle school, I must have been around 12-13 years old, I liked it. It's definitely a nice album, also for personal reasons. But I find 5 to be exaggerated, in my opinion. :)

    Anyway, I prefer Uno! Dos and Tres, if only for how much they made me laugh here on Debasio.

    but when I like an album I still give it a default 5 here, this one is definitely not a 5, a 4 is more than enough, it was more to emphasize that this is the only good one from this band that otherwise sucks even for me
