The Rock Matrix is much more pronounced than the Jazz one, but stuff like this had never been heard in Italy in '72 (neither Area nor Napoli Centrale existed yet). "Grandangolo" and the drum solo in "36° Parallelo" are worth the price of admission. From 1972 to 1976, they deserve the highest praise, unbeatable.

With two amazing albums behind them, the fantastic Roman quintet surpasses themselves once again in this third magnificent work: fluid and expansive Jazz-Fusion, filled with ethereal and dreamy atmospheres, enriched by the splendid use of the synth (see the title track). An album of true maturity, now completely devoid of the Rock influences of their early days. 8.5.

Peter Gabriel, Robert Fripp, Tony Levin, and Roy Bittan on the same album is something beyond human. We are more or less on the same wavelength as the previous record, but this time the standout tracks are the energetic opener "On the Air," the poignant ballad by Jill Moore "Mother Of Silence," and Fripp's experimentalism in "Exposure."

    Maybe it deserves a few more listens. I also used to underestimate Peter from the 2000s; I'm only re-evaluating him now (even though it's undeniable that his true masterpieces remain those released between '77 and '89).

After two stunning albums, the first absolute masterpiece of Peter arrives. A milestone of the entire 80s, as well as the first world music album from our artist, it features the presence of Robert Fripp and Phil Collins on guitar and drums respectively, along with the ever-loyal Tony Levin. The beautiful voice of Kate Bush crowns it all, even with a splendid duet in "Games Without Frontiers."
  • hjhhjij
    9 nov 12
    It seems a bit bold to say it's a word-music album :) Influences of this kind are beginning to emerge (though not too strongly) and will become more pronounced in "IV," then completely absent in "So," where they reappear at the end (In Your Eyes) and explode in Passion. But there’s little of that here. Of course, we agree, it’s a masterpiece.

A fundamental album for the development of English Punk, to the point that John Lydon cites it as one of his biggest influences (the intro of "Birthday Special" will be copied for "Anarchy in U.K."). A masterpiece from the very start: the first four tracks are incredibly intense, incendiary, and fucking punk. But Her Majesty also gives us a considerable number of beautiful ballads, among which "Been Alone So Long" and "Airport" stand out. Of course, the VDGG are in full force.

    22 apr 14
    I think the opposite of Silas: among the many great albums (some, to be fair, are masterpieces and I’m particularly referring to "Silent..." and "Over") by Hammill in the '70s, this is one that has "left" me the least. However, it’s still a pleasure to listen to. For me, the highlight of the album is "Shingle Song."

Second masterpiece for the director from Friuli, following the trail of his splendid debut concerning themes (the desire for redemption of the urban underclass, etc.), but already revealing a greater maturity. And then there’s a sumptuous Anna Magnani, in one of her many stunning performances, along with breathtaking shots, complete with explicit tributes to 15th-century painting (the image of dying Hector was modeled on Mantegna's "Dead Christ"). 9.5.

    I don't understand a thing about cinema (an art that I consider inferior and that interests me very little: it's already quite something if I watch a dozen movies a year), but this film can't help but be appreciated. Magnani, without a doubt, the greatest Italian actress of all time, a Titan.

    It’s a beautiful film, but remember that Pasolini said multiple times he was not at all satisfied with Magnani’s performance, too petty-bourgeois in his view... I don’t agree that it’s more mature than "Accattone", especially because, fortunately, Pasolini was never mature... Anyway, I’m glad that someone points out his films...

    It's a personal matter.

Probably the highest masterpiece of Pasolini's early phase (61'-66'), tremendously militant and religious at the same time, with an extraordinarily evocative power. Although the themes addressed are different from those in the previous two films, the stylistic elements that characterized our production so far remain (close-ups, references to medieval sculpture, etc.).

An album that, without all those plastic and pompous arrangements, could have easily been rated 4 stars, but in the end, it boils down to simple and somewhat predictable electronic pop-rock. Two tracks save the day: "On the Turning Away" and "Sorrow". Their worst, just barely sufficient.

    x Karter4. Well, I admit it. Over the years, I've learned to appreciate the simpler things. I've seen "A momentary" come to life, so I'm attached to it. But aside from that, I consider it a much less trivial album than "Division." I have about 90 Pink Floyd bootlegs, half of which are from their founder. I "come from" Piper and Madcap. However, that doesn't mean I can't prefer "Obscured" to Dark Side or "Momentary" to "Division."

    In fact, thinking about it, I believe it’s the greatest of all time; now I need to buy a new one since I’ve worn the old one out from listening to it so much.

The first album, the Live one, is sick, schizophrenic, dark, cosmic, as magnificently hallucinatory as could be conceived in those years. The second album, the studio one, offers very interesting insights and excellent tracks, above all the symphony of "Sysyphus" and the bucolic ballad "Grantchester Meadows." The album as a whole is one of the greatest examples of musical avant-garde of the time.

    I can't find the schizophrenic live part. Dark. I think it's monumental and rich in brightness. Of course, we're still talking about Careful, Set Controls, Saucerful. Despite the "hypnotisms," I find the live part to be much less dark than it seems.

The album I’m most attached to above all. Among the most beautiful progressive masterpieces ever, both from a lyrical and musical perspective. I loved it dearly and I still love it to this day.

    Personally, I don't consider it progressive. I wouldn't know how to categorize it. Anyway, I don't worship it; let's say that, in my opinion, its great merit, more than the songs themselves, is the "idea" and the absolutely innovative sound.

Another splendid concept album, more intimate and less far-out than the previous one. Beautiful, for me it’s still a masterpiece. And then it’s dedicated to me...

    At the moment, it’s my favorite of the concept quadrilogy.

The progressive is influenced by certain Punk and New Wave hints in a fantastic concept about George Orwell's "Animal Farm." Their latest masterpiece is among my all-time favorites: I must have worn it out, I believe.

    "punk hints, definitely a punk attitude": also a bit metal and at times industrial

    I meant it more as an attitude. ;)

    But what does it mean??

    In the sense that it sounded different from usual, even the tones are harsher and more abrasive.

    Honestly, I feel very little that is edgy here; the early albums were edgy, not these overly diluted little things... Also, hard rock is edgy, rock and roll is edgy, psych is edgy, even prog can be edgy. I don’t see why we should bring up punk. The Pink Floyd were the band that punks hated the most.

    Well, honestly compared to a Dark Side or an AHM, I find the sounds to be much more gritty, which is quite far from the early albums where they are rather more aggressive and hallucinatory.

Second album for Pink Floyd, second psychedelic milestone. In stark contrast to the Barrettian dadaism of the debut, but a precursor to a certain kaut-rock that will emerge in the seventies. The title track is among the most successful psychedelic-progressive experiments of all time.

Rehearsals for "The Dark Side of the Moon." Great album, but far from a masterpiece.

Great album, featuring beautiful acoustic guitar arrangements (in the tradition already started with the previous “Schizzechea” and the wonderful soundtrack of “Le vie del signore sono finite” by Troisi) and a nice collection of gems: above all “Anna verrà,” among his timeless masterpieces, but also “Ammore scumbinato,” “Carte e cartuscielle,” and “N’ata stagione,” for example. I also don’t mind the more “Dance” tracks.
