desade

...I almost forgot...More than anything, this is my personal tribute to the Writer. I don't like to review books since, as I already mentioned, the space available for a review is never enough to address an author, especially if it's a classic.

It's difficult to talk about Dostoevsky comprehensively without taking at least ten Word pages. I've done my best to avoid stumbling in the review-essay. Hi Ale!

The feedback intrigues. Well done.

Sorry I haven't read it, but I was enchanted by "La promessa" by the same author. Impeccable review.

3 Brit-pop reviews on the homepage. But how is it?

How lovely to know about this new section. It almost brings a tear to my eye. The review is valid.

The review is well-written and balanced. On a content level, I don't fully agree. I think it's a widespread opinion that Oasis haven't produced anything sensational since "Be Here Now" (According to others, since "Morning Glory," and some even since "Definitely Maybe"). In fact, they have gradually lost freshness and originality over the years (Many will say they were never original, completely overlooking the creativity involved in the so-called "revival" and the lazy kind of argument that compares them to the Beatles, which often negates their originality, despite how many times they've reminded us of it). They made a greatest hits album, closed a chapter, and are looking forward. With "Dig Out Your Soul," they certainly didn't perform a miracle on themselves. The sound is essentially the same, as is the imagery they refer to. However, there is a revitalizing, new tension that may be connected to the structure of the tracks, which are not stagnant, fast, and direct. A few doubts: I haven't heard any tear-jerking ballads (Really? Which ones are you talking about? To me, the songs sound pretty corrosive in their sounds and aggressive in their tones, sorry for the rhyme. If you're talking about Oasis-style ballads, I think of "Stop Crying Your Heart Out," not "Get Off Your High Horse Lady"), Britpop, by definition, is easy (The Kooks, Blur, Gorillaz, Coldplay... I don't think they've produced particularly intricate works), and I don't think the band from "Definitely Maybe" needs to flaunt rock (I mean, we're not talking about Lavigne here) to feel rock. x GIANCA: but isn’t it UTO Ughi?

In short, the Jojo of the '80s

Radiohead, U2, Green Day, Coldplay... I wonder what these bands have in common to be all tossed into the same bin of crappy bands. Ah! Maybe there is something! They’re chart-toppers! Noooooooo! They chart? Then they are total shit! Can we realize this? In the charts??!! Like those other morons: Rollingstonescarolekingthebeatlesjo nimitchellbobdylanmichaeljacksondav idbowie... How disgusting!... Putting aside lowbrow sarcasm, Radiohead have never seemed like a commercial band to me, but even if they were, even if they decided to perform on "Carramba," the value of their music would speak for itself. Nothing against the other, more commercial bands. And Björk is a genius.

In agreement with Daduzza. The turning point from a few years back when she was grappling with a pop-Spears doesn't seem to qualify her as eclectic, as you say. "Sellout" might be more fitting. In any case, I don't know her that well, so I won't stick my neck out.
