Giving bad grades to these records makes me feel like someone who can finally stop longing for those times. Writing to exorcise, as a certain someone used to say.

Farts or not, I just wanted to tell you that it’s not that these bands are exactly my favorites, but there was a time, the one when I wrote this, when I wanted to rediscover what I listened to during my teenage years. And since most of that music had already been reviewed (grunge), I was keen on reviewing the missing part (almost all the successful root rock from those years apart from REM and Counting Crows). I’m sorry that it makes you want to shit yourselves, but I follow the rule of "I have it, so I review it."

oops

Look, I would give you a 10. But how about we create a collective book, we at DeBaser, for goodness' sake? Something like "A Love Story in 100 Reviews"?

In my opinion, the web is not the solution to your questions. Neither in a general sense nor in the specific context of musical art, which, as you say, is impoverished by downloads and at the same time enriched by the gems of this or that artist. Therefore, "48 Hours" is not the answer to your questions either. The problem is of a humanistic nature.

FM rock has the right to exist as well, and these are wonderful senators. The problem is the music genre: if you don’t like it, you can only think of it as good for shopping mall elevators; if you do like it, then it's 5 stars. The truth is that, good or not, FM has had its historical reason for being in the rock landscape, and we can't repudiate it just because it's a part of history that we don’t feel belongs to us (unlike, say, Americans). FM is not the genre that satisfies me, I have no doubts, but it's a dish that I’ve learned to digest. In the realm of FM bands and albums, this record is worth 5/5.

What a beautiful home page we have today! maryg, fede, telespallabob, grant, melissa, l'appestato mantrico, blackdog, panico, supersoul and paloz, the boss Tepes and Il_Paolo, a guy named Cristo and AlessioIride. There's even Wendysonoacasa who made a great debut and with a name like that is already part of the collective imagination! We're just missing Uxo (Hal, Mementomori and Grasshopper haven't shown up in ages, just like vortex and odradek if I'm not mistaken), Francescobus and me. Actually, no: I’m here!

to those who liked her and those who didn't, clara is better than vasco, anyway. of course, I would never trade la_clara for debbie harry or joan jett, mind you. I don't understand what is wrong with your reviews that stirs up these controversies. if I'm not mistaken, what there is in calmly, subtly, veltronianly polemical, inciting and instigating. Bo? I vote for the types for that little bit I remember them.

it more or less summarizes what I've always thought: the Afterhours copy/plagiarize, and above all, they would have been finished (and for a while now). What’s certain is that this title provokes an interest in me that an album by Afterhours, with any other title, could never have.

Not to be a know-it-all, but "Ball Of Confusion" is originally a track by the Temptations from 1970... I mean, it’s not really clear here, to be honest... You know how it is, before someone asks you, "Wasn’t it by Duran Duran?"
