Vinile I have it ★★★★★

Album of brain ejaculation. The fathers of that form of psychedelia they would call 'space rock'. For me, this is the cream of their production alongside the self-titled debut, embryonic but already beautiful, 'Doremi Fasol Latido' and especially the live 'Space Ritual'...

The words you often use in your definitions are truly worthy presentations of the albums; this time, however, you surpass yourself with a PERFECT comparison regarding the music of these dashing youngsters. A really great group.

Heavy Vegetable: The Amazing Undersea Adventure Of Aqua Kitty And Friends

19 jul 13

Underrated masterpiece of the noise/alt/math/post hc underground and whatever else you want to throw in..."The Double Nickels on the Dime of the '90s," said the good Bisius on these pages some time ago. How can you argue with him, really... An eclectic, crazy album, among the most brilliant of that decade. Unfortunately, also one of the most obscure.

Helium: The Dirt of Luck

17 jul 13

Five little balls, damn. A small masterpiece of twisted and uneven noise pop. One of my all-time favorite albums. A must-check for anyone who might have missed it at the time and/or wasn't around for age-related reasons... The following album [The Magic City] is also great, where the crystalline "indie" rock vein will merge with some progressive elements. Good grief.

Helmet: Strap It On

9 aug 13

Heavy as a boulder. Riffs like chainsaws. A hell of an album and the absolute zenith of Page Hamilton's combo, one of the greatest riffmakers in history. I saw them live in 1994... I was stunned. And deaf for a week!

I like them a lot. I'm listening to Unsane's "Wrech," it's not bad.

Have you heard the first self-titled album by Unsane? It's brutal! I think it's the coolest :)

Helmet: Meantime

5 mar 14

While not reaching the heights of the deadly debut of 1990 ["Strap It On," one of the most shocking, violent, and influential records of the last 30 years], this second work by the Page Hamilton combo still maintains high standards, albeit smoothing out some of the jagged edges of that wonderful noise of 1000 hardware stores at work from the first album. They could have even disbanded after this. They had said EVERYTHING.

I, the undersigned De...Marga... from Domodossola, arrive at this decision: today’s choice of Silas Lang is fully endorsed, with one caveat that I wish to add: from my perspective, the first two works of Mr. Hamilton should be regarded as a kind of single work.....one that makes you want to bash your skull against the first thing you come across...

I saw them during the "Betty" tour... oh my God! They were a wrecking ball... riffs like boulders.

Hum: You'd Prefer an Astronaut

Ciccio Moreno and his Deftones have poured themselves into this album, I would bet my balls on it without hesitation. On "Little Dipper" there's practically all of White Pony. You can almost sing over 'Knife Party'...

Hüsker Dü: Everything Falls Apart

16 oct 13

I speak of "Everything Falls Apart" without MORE... which I consider the first masterpiece of the three. Furious hardcore from total destruction. But beneath the blind fury and chaos, the wonderful pop vein of that genius Mould is already glimpsed ["From the Gut," "Everything Falls Apart," "Wheels," by Hart, with that bass line so close to certain new wave, and the beautiful "Gravity"]. 12 tracks in under 20 minutes. Perfection!

Hüsker Dü: Flip Your Wig

Great songs. Shitty production. And I love shitty productions. But an album recorded poorly has to be done in a way that slaps. That said, it’s still a great album.

I haven’t listened to this much, regarding their less "famous" records I love New Day Rising, such a great album.

New Day Rising...beautiful! As far as I'm concerned, all their albums are beautiful, the ones I like the least have always been the first Land Speed Record, recorded live and you can't understand a damn thing, and Candy Apple Grey.

hehe "recorded live and you can't understand a damn thing" :D think that after that masterpiece of Warehouse: songs and stories I listened to candy apple grey, which in comparison to warehouse came out a bit battered, perhaps unfairly, but it didn't blow me away either.
