Yes, Vitalogy, Baustelle always suck no matter what. I just didn't want to trigger yet another discussion with GustavoTanz who then says that I don't like anything...
Oasis Definitely Maybe

Welcome. Nice piece of crap review. Not only were there plenty of them, but someone who writes what you did, starting from "imprecise and bland album," clearly doesn’t understand a damn thing. This is a pop album, and it’s a damn good pop album. Those who throw shade at pop, I just don’t get. It’s not necessary to listen to pop; there’s a ton of music out there in the world. I personally can’t stand world music, but that doesn’t mean I trash talk Nusrah Fateh Ali.@ Alessiuccio, daddy's little boy, take it down a notch, Lampard is coming...

Maybe it's because they suck? Everyone knows that Baustelle are awful live, so it’s a good thing someone reminded us of that on this site.

Nice, but not beautiful. A bit too perfect and ecumenical. When the bpm finally picked up with Everything in the Right Place, Yorke dampened everything with Exit Music. I was hoping for something more experimental and electronic. Rece feels a bit too fanatical.

Let it be said that if they touch the Jeffersons, I’ll go at them with a machete; the comparison just doesn’t hold up. The USA has made one album, no matter how brilliant it may be, just one. The Jeffersons have churned out four classics with a constant evolution (from the quest for the perfect rock song to the lysergic rides). It’s true they’ve had little influence on those who came after, but, in my humble opinion, it’s precisely because of their unattainability. Moreover, as Laggio observes, Hard Coming Love is the Jeffersons. And a singer like Grace Slick is a dream for the USA.
Wall of Voodoo Dark Continent

I can’t give you the rating because I had it lined up for months (it’s somewhere in the office), it was supposed to be the conclusion of my Californian trilogy after X and Tuxedomoon. In any case, great recovery. So ahead of their time, the Wall revitalized Morricone fifteen years before anyone else. A confirmed four, because Call of The West deserves a five; otherwise...
Dirtbombs Live @ Circolo degli Artisti - Roma
Voto:
Psycho, I'm a bit ignorant on the subject... the only cover I recognized was, in the encore, the hit by INXS, the one that ends with "You're one of my kind," which is also their last single. I guess in the end I was the luckiest: there were about a hundred of us in front of the stage, but most of them danced from start to finish!

I don’t know… I think you caught them on the wrong night… I saw them three days earlier, outdoors, and it had been ages since I’d seen a garage band that rocked like this… kind of like over twenty years ago with Fleshstones, Fuzztones, or Miracle Workers.

Great page, as usual, and excellent closing. To be honest, I've never really practiced them much; they've always left me a bit indifferent. Kisses.
Nick Drake Five Leaves Left
Voto:
Dear Dr. Zaireeka, the Company, gathered in extraordinary session (Dr. Freud was absent for reasons known to you, but Nick Drake's sister was present via teleconference), appears perplexed. However, since perplexity is a luxury (make a note of that, Dr. Zaireeka, I recommend), it has resolved that: despite some imbalances of which you are not yet fully aware (perhaps you are just now realizing that you rated Tricarico a 5 as well), and that the most beautiful song on the album is (arguably) "River Man," since it is the saddest, nonetheless, I was saying (pardon me, I'm a bit lengthy tonight), this is a good start for a return to presumed normality. Please say hello to little Yoshimi for me. Best regards.
