Hole My Body, The Hand Grenade
Voto:
The comment from Maledimiele would be enough. I can only add that Polly is an artist, Courtney a loser. Polly, if only I could see her, I would get down on my knees and ask her to marry me. Consistency? Please... Polly has the great merit of expressing her desires, something that very few have done in women's rock. I'm sorry, but if you can't see the difference between Harvey and Love, you'd better turn to horse racing (no double meaning intended, it's just a way of saying).

It seems to me that if the reviewer, for two paragraphs, talks about the character Love instead of music, they can't then expect the commenters not to make remarks about the character Love. Come on, a bit of consistency and fewer contradictions, at the very least. If you talk about Parker and tell me he was a heroin addict, am I not supposed to mention it in the comments? You are the one who managed to say that it’s not artificial and naïve... Can we contradict such a statement, which seems a bit unusual, or not? If you only want to talk about music: Hole made only one decent album, it’s called "Live through This," and Cobain wrote it. And if he didn’t write it, but the Melvins say so, and I believe them, it’s a bad copy of Nevermind. Period.

Dear Nick, unfortunately, more than two months after its release, my judgment hasn't changed even a little. Of course, I would have preferred the opposite. It's there, I listen to it little, and when I do, it says very little to me. Above all, the compositional lack of someone who doesn’t know how to play the piano seems obvious to me. Do you like it? Good for you. De gustibus. Moreover, I see that my opinion has been shared by many other reviewers, far more skilled than I am. So, excuse my presumption, but as hasty as it may be, I stand by the idea that I was right.

Nice proposal.

Great rediscovery. I actually saw the film many years ago, thanks to Ghezzi, and I remember it just like a trip. Now I will rediscover the soundtrack.

@Kyklos: as legendary as Kronos is, they’ve also had their missteps. For instance, I had the misfortune of hearing them live during their infatuation with Mexican music, and I assure you: duppalle. It’s a bit like this album, where the sum of the parts yields an incorrect result. Naturally, de gustibus.

Man, I told you the end is near. What do you think, that I'm not scared? Man, the People's Party of the Cojoni scares me, what do you think? Man, either you save me, or it's over.

"No because, man, I know that the end is near. Man, I know that I won't make it till dawn, that the cold will kill me. But, man, I'm here. I can kick everyone's ass. And, man, I've already kicked some. But you know I might not make it. But man, I'm a cross between Chuck Norris and Bobo Vieri, and maybe I can do it."

I'll sip, enough with this rhetorical form of "You," who is, however, the character. Oh my God, WHAT A PAIN. And I suppose you have a name too, but I'm too ignorant to know it. Do you know? Will you tell me? But enough already, you’ve shattered me (I’d appreciate it if you could avoid comments like I'm envious; just shoot me some silly stuff that makes me laugh).

Mmmh, a bit exaggerated, it is absolutely inferior to any album by Mogwai, even to the soundtrack of "Zidane, portrait etc...".
