Who doesn’t die sees each other again! I’m really happy. Send it back on target!

Twenty comments for an album like this is truly a shame. Let's assume that "London Calling" is one side of a coin. The other can easily be this record.

I've listened to the early works of Underground Life; I probably happened to hear "Canzone dell'Eterno Settembre" from this one. Who knows... maybe I'll give it a listen.

After reaching the threshold of the hundredth comment, I would like to express an opinion, as a convinced supporter of anarchist thought and therefore of a topic that is generally addressed little and poorly (I'm not surprised that in the comments very few have spoken about anarchist theorists and named anyone). The only one I have seen mentioned is Max Stirner, whom I admire but do not intend to focus solely on. The problem many attribute to anarchy is proposing an unfeasible model of governance (or even failing to propose one, since for many the equation anarchy=chaos remains). This is reductive, there is no doubt about that. Anarchist theory and thought are, first and foremost, stimuli for individual behavior, and this is an extraordinary value that no political theory can assert. The responsibility of thought and the ability for self-management of a collective community first arise from a healthy management of the individual. From this arises an ideal spirit that leads to fighting against the injustices that a structure (the state, whether "democratic" or dictatorial) justifies for its survival. This is atrocious and is accepted a priori; this is humanly inconceivable. It's understandable how one arrives at the negation of structural and ideological authorities. The contribution that anarchism and its thinkers have made to various social sciences and to all of humanity is extraordinary and undeniable. Just read Francisco Ferrer (given that we are a hundred years since his execution, it would be interesting to revisit his theories on education, which are still very relevant today) and Emma Goldman (one of the greatest feminists of all time). This is just to mention two names. We can talk about Godwin, Malatesta, and, why not, even Noam Chomsky—a great admirer of anarchy and its thought. Anarchism needs to be propagated by being known in the various fields it has been able to develop and analyze, often in innovative ways compared to others. It's not just a circled A written on a bank wall, an attitude I can understand and perhaps even justify. For those who do not wish to read the books of anarchist thinkers, I leave this phrase, the best possible to narrate anarchists. It is not surprising that it comes from the mind of Fabrizio De André: "The majority is like a disease, like misfortune, like anesthesia, like a habit, for those who travel in an obstinate and contrary direction with their special brand of special despair, to deliver to death a drop of brilliance of humanity of truth." Those who wish can read, and let’s say you agree... you know where to find us. Meanwhile, we will continue... in an obstinate and contrary direction.

Good, well done. Keep it up.

You come back to write after almost 5 months, amidst discussions of virtually no value and a plethora of duplicates that are, to say the least, macabre. You do it by pulling out a badass group and you give it a 4? That's where the problem lies! Damn it, it's not possible.

He has always described his love stories wonderfully. In "Fiumani," there's also this! His love songs are about what has happened to him. In his music videos, he features his girlfriends, and if you just ask him, he'll share some of his old stories (not to seek pity, but to explain their importance in his albums). He always does it in interviews!

Fabio, trust me when I say that Fiumani isn't second to anyone when it comes to awful album covers, but to be precise, he couldn't care less! And he's absolutely right: he screams, plays, and kicks the ass of almost everyone from his time (only Andrea Chimenti gets a pass) and he still kicks it for those who came after. At 50, he has fulfilled his dream: to live off music and have great sex! Call him crazy... and he did it without selling out (he could have, but he said no). The problem will be when he dies; he’s right when he says you should go to his concerts with the idea that you’re witnessing a dying breed!

I'm definitely into these, based on the discussion about "Neutral Milk Hotel." I'll take note right away.

The future of music? Who knows. We will see in 15-20 years. There remains a group with tremendous qualities, and for now, that’s more than enough. There have been bands that perhaps only released 2-3 incredible albums but didn't really make a significant mark in the history of music. I believe it's harder now, also due to a different setup of the market.
