SALMACIS

What a trilogy that composed of "Souls at zero," "Enemy of the sun," and "Through silver in blood."

ah. I forgot the grades..

So, of all the reviews I've written, this is the only one where I feel the need for self-criticism. Right now, I would give the album a full 5 stars, mainly thanks to the first 3 tracks (the first 2 and Advent in particular are truly masterpieces). However, I still have some reservations about Bid you farewell and Black rose immortal, although the latter has grown significantly with repeated listens. I thank everyone who, very civilly and intelligently, contributed with their critiques to help me revise a judgment that was already more than good to begin with. Thank you and happy holidays to all. Paganitas!!

I really don’t understand these abstract “reviews.” It’s true that we’re faced with a particularly self-expressive masterpiece, but we should have respect for those who have never heard it and describe it, and perhaps even for those who have already listened to it and would like to delve deeper into certain themes.
Anyway: simply the best album by Italian singer-songwriters. All the tracks are masterpieces, of poetry, composition, execution, and also of intimate and social exploration of existence.

I appreciate Piergiorgio's enthusiasm and taste, but in terms of form and overall judgment, we really don't agree. First of all, I wonder how such a record (and so magnificently presented) can receive only 4 stars? Therefore, in addition to the repetitions already highlighted and to the somewhat archaic and convoluted style, there should have been a more extensive description of the tracks and the overall structure of the Album. You should have at least mentioned a masterpiece that characterizes the spirit of the work so well, like "Hallucinations." Furthermore, how can we not remember the absolute credentials of the band members, such as the psychedelic drummer John Twink Adler, author, among other things, of that summation of U.K. acid music that is "Think Pink," the vocalist and composer Keith West, and none other than the great Steve Howe (YES, for the few unfortunate souls who may not be aware) on guitar?!?

I agree... anyway, even on Wind and Wuthering there are better tracks than "All in a Mouse's Night," which, however, is not bad.

It seems to me that the first one to take it personally is actually you, Maccio, so much so that you constantly refuse to argue against the unfounded criticisms you make indiscriminately to everyone.
p.s. the "many" you refer to are probably the plural "I" of your schizophrenia. No Hard Feelings, Just Compassion.
Oh, I forgot... to identify yourself and be readable in bold, all it takes is a Password...
ah... I forgot... "sufficente" is actually written "sufficiente," see your comment on my rec. High Tide.
Go back to 2nd grade.

Great review, great album, beautiful, but just a bit lower, even the following Third World War II, "Stardom Road Part 1" is a masterpiece. Well done Rocky, don't mind Maccio's ramblings.. he's an unhappy envious person, only capable of spewing anger and ignorance.

Look, you're getting on my nerves so much that you're even making me misspell words. Let me repeat and correct: "How much I can't stand Capatonda; I'm anxiously waiting to read his review. But how can he make such judgments?!? And how do we understand that the EXCELLENT Francesco OVERRATES HIMSELF TOO MUCH?! These are baseless, unfounded, and unacceptable CRITICISMS, especially because NEVER, I mean NEVER, does Maccio (sic!) go into detail, into the substance, into the specifics to explain the reasons that lead him to issue his unappealable and icy sentences like... embarrassing... modest... insufficient... Maybe he just can't articulate any criticism and prefers to denigrate without any thought. To be boycotted!!"

How much Capatonda gets on my nerves, I eagerly await to read one of his reviews: but how can he make such judgments? And then how does one understand that the EXCELLENT Francesco OVERRATES HIMSELF TOO MUCH. UNACCEPTABLE CRITICISMS, especially because he NEVER, I mean NEVER, goes into detail, into the substance, into the specifics to explain the motives that lead him to issue his unappealable and cold judgments like ..embarrassing..modest..insufficien t... Perhaps the reason is that he can't articulate any criticism and prefers to disparage for the sake of it without any reflection. Boycott him!!
