I consider Pajo a good musician, different from the great artist I enjoy listening to... Even in different situations, by the way (e.g. Zwan), Pajo has not been able to express a personal idea. Kraut, Glitch, etc... are meaningless labels when faced with a mere technical fact. Perhaps the critic's mistake is precisely that: taking technique to distinguish and explain emotion. Hello Larrok

They are more mature. The music has lost all its punk, surf, easy nuances, and has become more solid and compact, better produced and constructed. There are some truly impressive tracks. And Corgan's vocals are irreplaceable. Great album.

Well, fine smoukondeuoter. Quoting in full. I add: the album is beautiful. But only after digesting it for a few years.
It is NOT a "drum-centric" album, nor a technical showcase, but a small vessel of Vinnie's art, definitely with a somewhat naive taste.
At the end of Colaiuta, immense technicality emerges (especially the geometric rhythmic decompositions of I'm tweeked), even though the CD attempts to present itself as a "humble artist" all-round (without resorting to spectacular but boring and short-lived drumming tricks).

Dear Larrock, here I wanted you. This is where the donkey falls. This isn’t jazz, but a kind of exercise in style. Moreover, a very poor one. Jazz is very, very different from what you hear there: 4 idiots who know how to plin plon and play at feeling like jazz musicians.

But seriously, why is no one explaining why they liked/didn't like the album or the review? Two simple words: beautiful / ugly. The first adjectives that kids learn after a few months... so what? Would it bother you to explain a bit in summary? I'm afraid I'm missing something, but this way of qualifying music convinces me even more that the album really sucks.

Too optimistic a record, sufficient album. Weiland is missing. Raw and heavy sounds. Take it if you preferred Core to Purple.

A moderately sized album. Very hard. Little personality and imagination from Weiland, who here plays the cold and indifferent rocker. The STP excite me more when they lean towards slightly softer sounds. Beautiful "sour girl" and "atlanta."

I bought the album. In my opinion, it’s not even a fraction of what’s on Spiderland. Too constructed (incredibly constructed, given the technical skill level of the musicians), ephemeral, aesthetic. An album written and played by incompetent music critics. I don’t feel any kind of pathos.
Art understood as a lack of transient emotion, transformed and solidified. There’s even a lack of will. Figuratively, it’s a stucco made by an Egyptian craftsman with no means, shown to an audience willing to accept anything. Some interesting ideas in Glass, Djed, and Rivers. Nothing more. Or maybe I need to listen to it another hundred times.
