I wanted to say: the thousand makes me crash, the bullshit about aggression is always mentioned before extreme aggression...there he is, looking around, sniffing the air, shaking his head and smugly saying, "there's aggression in the air" (even though, in reality, the situation is super calm...actually, maybe someone is shouting "petrozza merdallaro!"), then he lets out a big sigh and yells "eeeeeeeeeeexxtttttttttttttrrrriiii iiiiiiiiiiiiiimmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!! aaaaaaaaaagggrrescioooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn nnnnnnn!!!!!!!... all in all, some nice moments.

I find a thousand things hilarious... he always repeats the nonsense about aggression before extreme aggression... and there he is, looking around, sniffing the air, shaking his head a bit and pleased with himself: I notice there's aggression in the air, even though the situation is actually very calm (in fact, at most there’s someone shouting "petrozza merdallaro!"), then he lets out a big sigh and goes: eeeexxtriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii iiiiiiiimmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!! aggreeeescioooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnn nnnnnnnnnn!!!!!!! All in all, some great moments...

Oops, I meant total disaster...damn, these reviews in the early morning really get me pumped up...they bring to mind sublime visions, like the time I saw Destruction live with Sodom and Kreator, and I have to admit they really kicked ass (well, the drummer was someone else)...good job guys, while Sodom managed to be even less technical, it felt like being at a Motörhead concert, they were going so fast that you couldn't even mosh...well, a thousand is a thousand, everyone despises it, but when it decides to kick ass, it truly knows how to do its job...tor...mentòrrr!!!

Beautiful, beautiful, from a technical standpoint, but rotten to the core... the true fathers of the black metal to come, along with Celtic Frost and Bathory... total destruction song of the century!

Well, because I couldn't find a suitable label among the available ones that could summarize the features of this mind-blowing record... anyway, the exact title is "In Menstrual Night"... is it possible to correct it?

This review is also good, perhaps a bit too harsh. It perfectly captures my feelings on the first listen; then, with subsequent listens, things improved, and all in all, nearly a week after the purchase, I feel I can’t dismiss the album. I agree that it sounds excessively cold, but I trust that after a few more albums Wilson will say: enough with the metal, I'm going back to being myself (even though I fear that this moment will take a while to arrive, as it seems to me that this time Wilson is hitting the big time, and for a while he will be churning out records for his new market). It’s also true that certain passages are overly simplistic. Edwin's charisma has practically gone to waste with the distortions, Barbieri is never incisive and is relegated to the background embellishments, and it’s becoming increasingly clear that the new PT are operating on the Wilson-Harrison axis. Nonetheless, it's worth listening to and re-listening to, and judging next year.

sob what mistakes the frenzy of Friday brings, bearer of illusory hopes: "one last thing," I meant to say. that's enough now I'm self-destructing!

One last thing, maybe I didn't explain myself well... I didn't mean to say that the PT don't do prog, just that when it comes to saying something new about prog today, it's precisely those groups like Tool that happen to come from a different type of background than the typical 70s prog...

Oops, I slipped the sunn o))), but I meant earth!

I have a rather broad conception of prog, one that is not very orthodox and is more or less shareable, namely that rock (which, despite being influenced by jazz, avant-garde, electronics, or any other nonsense) is capable of transcending the song format, evolving and going beyond the typical verse-chorus structure. When I think of innovation, I come to mind entities like Hendrix, Fripp, Sonic Youth, but also Sunn O))) and Darkthrone—artists who, despite being rooted in a specific background of influences, are able to bring forth a style (if it's a single) or a formula (if we're talking about a band) that is hard to trace back to those who came before. When I listen to Wilson and the PT, I think of many other bands, both distant and recent, while if I listen to Tool, I only think of Tool. But beyond this discussion, which is somewhat inconsequential and solely personal, I must say this: Wilson plays, damn he plays, and in a world where it’s easy to take refuge in the chaos of feedback, drones, and digital electronics, in a world where one just needs to pick up a toy and suddenly they are a genius, it’s no small feat to know how to play, to have ideas, to put them together carefully, and to have control over every single note. Wilson plays and he’s on his tenth album. I can’t wait to see what the fake and pretentious artists, manufactured by pseudo-intellectual magazines like Cocorosie, will do on their tenth album!
