I didn't like the review: +, what the hell!... T9 has been around for a long time! And it's also trivial and full of clichés (D'Arcy's singing is of great impact?! But she sings softly and even struggles to hit the lower notes!): therefore 1.5. However, the album is an excellent debut, sometimes a bit repetitive (as Corgan himself admitted) but still a surprising starting point. I Am One and Siva are among the best creations of the quartet.

Great review. However, no one mentions R.E.M. among the band's influences, and some of their melodies really seem borrowed from the Georgians to me. Maybe it's just my impression, but Yard Trip #7 above all proves it. Plus, there are some new-wave flashes here and there (in Too Far Away, they rather remind me of Joy Division)... Great album anyway, in my opinion, actually quite superior to its successor Uncle Anesthesia.

Deep Purple California Jamming

By far inferior to the Purple MkI, especially those from the devastating and unmatched debut In Rock! No way around it, anyone who played in the Purple is an excellent musician, but the power and raw class of the MkI is something else, best exemplified by In Rock on the studio level and Made In Japan on the live level. I don’t listen to them much anymore, but these things about Deep Purple have stayed with me!

Review, as usual thetrooperian, clumsy and linguistically inaccurate, but quite in line with my thoughts. I also went, to the chagrin of those who believe it was a day to be canceled, and all in all I had fun, except with the Deftones, who left me perplexed with a cold performance, lacking verve and also a bit technically imprecise. I refused to watch the Guns, fueled by a longstanding grudge against them, and went back home (I couldn't miss the train to see that pompous and pathetic sideshow of Axl!). Then for an aficionado like me of Alice, it was exciting to see the band reunited for at least three quarters, and a singer who managed to compensate very well for the glaring absence of Layne.

Finally, after a long time, I managed to listen to it. The Incubus of this album are pleasant, easy to listen to, but damn, how polished they are! In some cases, it feels like hearing the Red Hot of By the Way. A friend recommended it to me saying it's a great album, super experimental and psychedelic: 'sti cazzi, compared to Morning View, so heavily criticized for its commerciality (and partly rightly so), is The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn!

This review is very useful; I’ve never heard anyone talk about this album on debaser! And then, quoting Ezda and Deathinaugust, why do you give it five stars and urge us to buy it if you’ve panned more than half of it?!! Mediocre album, inferior to its predecessor and not even remotely comparable to the first two. While on one hand this album has won over hordes of teenagers, on the other hand, in the last two years, SOAD has lost many first-time fans, like myself. A band that used to captivate and excite in its early days, thanks to a fresh, original, and impactful sound, but which has, within a few years, contradicted itself with repetitiveness, self-references (Holy Mountains sounds like Aerials), and falls into the commercial (especially in this regard, Lonely Day is nothing short of irritating!).

You may be original in your proposal, but your feedback seems half like a shopping list and half like an ad for a comedy show. I may have my limitations, but I don’t like your style. With respect.
