I fundamentally agree with your excellent review. As always, it's a great album, this time more about "settling down" compared to the twists and turns of past years, and it makes perfect sense.

Among the groups I listened to the least during the 90s in England, Dog Man Star is one that didn't drive me crazy, so it didn't motivate me to follow them. It's a bit like what happened to me with the second album from Placebo and Supergrass.

The first two I listened to years ago: at a certain point, however, I found them indigestible.

I, between the 90s and 00s, was an idiot looking for clubs that played rock, where I consistently found nothing.

I've probably already told you Lulu', you have a clearly recognizable style and poetry, and I believe this is one of the greatest compliments one can give. As for Johnston, I'm embarrassed to say that I only know him through Built to Spill and their recent cover album. But how wonderful it is when an extraordinary yet not very famous group like BTS pays tribute to a sadly semi-unknown author like him. Back in the day, it was Cobain who promoted him, just as he did with a bunch of other artists and bands that, if they haven't completely faded into obscurity today, is also thanks to him.

Perhaps the group that disappointed me the most after their early albums: up until Hullabaloo, they were one of my favorite bands, but then with Absolution I began to raise an eyebrow at certain things. Nonetheless, both Absolution, Black Holes, and The Resistance were undoubtedly at least good records. However, with the subsequent ones, I lost interest, as I didn’t like either 2nd Law or Drones at all, and I kept a safe distance from Simulations Theory. But if you tell me this is the best since The Resistance, well, it deserves a listen at least.

Beautiful review: rarely do they urge me so much to give it a listen as soon as possible.

I think I've seen it on Netflix: if I find it, I'll watch it. I had heard about Woodstock '99 and seen some pictures of artists and the audience literally covered in mud, but I never really knew much more about it.

Another series I've followed since the first episode: not on the level of Breaking Bad (but which series even comes close to that?) but still an excellent show. And Jimmy McGill/Saul Goodman is a memorable character on par with Walter White/Heisenberg.

As a comic book enthusiast like me, not having read Akira yet is really strange. It would be like not knowing Berserk, which I consider one of the peaks of comics worldwide. I will definitely make up for it. At the moment, I'm deepening my knowledge of Urusawa: I loved Monster and now I'm catching up on 20th Century Boys.
