Long, but very, very interesting review; your passion shines through!

Update to the review: "Typo!". See the old version Coagulated Bliss - Full of Hell - recensione Versione 2

Edit to the review: "Correct tracklist." See the old version Coagulated Bliss - Full of Hell - recensione Versione 1

I love the Fallout series, especially "Fallout 3" and "New Vegas," having played (and platinumed) them for an outrageous number of hours. I also played "Fallout 4" a lot, even though it is qualitatively inferior to the two previous titles; not to mention the early PC games, which are definitely classics. The only one I haven't touched is "Fallout 76," haha.

I'm really tempted to check it out anyway, and your review piqued my curiosity. Considering the apocalyptic setting, which should be approached with a minimum of seriousness and depth (just like in the video games), I hope it’s not the usual show with cheap modern humor… a bit like how "The Mandalorian" has become, which started off great.

I had it on repeat for several days! Certain atmospheres, no matter how many times you've heard them and how many have already played (even better) and explored them, remain one of my favorite things in metal. "Under Acid Hoof" is still, in my opinion, their best album with much more inventiveness and inspiration; here, every now and then, you cruise on autopilot, but it’s still enjoyable.

✍️✍️✍️ I’ll add it to the list, then I’ll be back... (the list of producers is amazing, it looks like an all-star team!)

Terrifying and unsettling, yet also very cinematic. Perhaps his best "modern" album.

Can you believe this is the only Mac Miller album I've listened to "in full" so far? I pretty much ignored his music, rediscovering it recently, after his death. It's really a good album anyway, even if the beats haven't aged that well ("Goblin" by Tyler and "Doris" by Earl, for example, give me the same feeling) and each listen hits me with a wave of nostalgia for those years of American hip hop, just before the trap era of Travis Scott, Migos, and Future.

A long but friendly and passionate review. This has always been my favorite album by the Arctic Monkeys along with their debut "Whatever People Say...". I'm quite fond of many of those British bands from the mid-2000s... Bloc Party, Klaxons, Kasabian, Franz Ferdinand, and many others including the Arctic Monkeys, of course, whose energy and simplicity in their sound I've always appreciated—perhaps diluted a bit too much in the subsequent albums, in my opinion failing to repeat or improve upon what they accomplished here. Tracks like 'Old Yellow Bricks', 'Do Me a Favour', 'Fluorescent Adolescent', 'The Bad Thing', 'This House Is a Circus', '505', and 'Teddy Picker' (my favorite) are, for me, real hits of nostalgia, always enjoyable to listen to.

The champions always do champion things. No matter how wide the score, champions are champions because they keep winning and remain undisputed. Once that status is achieved, almost nothing can stop them.

It's not a new "Nothing" or a new "Destroy Erase Improve," nor a "obZen" part 2 (the works that made them undisputed champions, thus impossible to replicate), but it’s yet another great album, stylistically close to "Koloss" and "The Violent Sleep of Reason," perhaps a bit more focused on groove and less on speed compared to both. Undoubtedly, though, it’s another excellent album from these invincible Swedish champions; when you have a top player like Fredrik Thordendal on your team, it’s hard not to come home with the result. One could talk for hours about those sinister micro-melodies, almost imperceptible yet memorable, that he manages to weave amidst the heaviness and fury of those robotic and relentless riffs, not to mention the human metronome that is T. Haake. "Ligature Marks" my favorite track... what more to say, long live the champions!
