They released a new album that seems pretty nice. Does no one listen to them?

He released a new album, but here all is silent.

@Adriano Bernard. This album is less sugary, choral, and happy than the two previous ones. If you really like the genre, I recommend "Together We're Heavy," which you can read about in these pages, or the debut "The Beginning Stages of..." unfortunately underrated by the reviewer here on these pages.

I don't have solid proof, but I guess that doping in football is more harmful than helpful. If you can't play, you could take all the Caruana family’s substances, but you'll always remain mediocre. A mediocre who will run a bit faster, but still a mediocre.

Physically, you mean lately. Because at the height of his career, I truly believe that his explosiveness was due to his physique. Moreover, he was also quite rugged and rock-solid since he hardly ever got injured, despite taking a real beating.

Unfortunately, I have never seen Pelé play live, both because of my age—indeed, I'm not very young anymore but not quite advanced enough to have seen the Black Pearl in person—and because back then, televisions showed very little. One point against Pelé, in my opinion, is that he never faced European football. With all due respect, playing exclusively in Brazil is a bit easier. As for Messi, unfortunately, I know too little about him to give a proper judgment. For now, however, I have yet to see any evidence that he has ever won something truly significant.

Talking about football... the greatest players I could admire, for me, are in the following order: 1) Maradona, 2) Platini, 3) Van Basten, 4) Franco Baresi. Among the contemporaries (to reassess the carioca), 1) Kaka, 2) Ronaldo (the real Ronaldo)....... and then I don't see any other true champions.

How serious! My post-pop was just a way of saying. I'm not a labeler at all costs. However, sometimes when I talk about unknown bands, I get asked "what kind of music do they make?" and then it's only natural to associate them with a genre, even at the risk of creating monsters. @Fosca. There's no arguing about tastes. For example, I find Maximo Park's latest work extraordinary despite what I've read on these pages. So, your admiration for this work is welcome.

On my father's tastes, I share the legendary car-wrecker's preferences, and perhaps even worse. The problem is that the father is starting to be me.

Good album even if not as exceptional as I've read above. There are similarities to Sigur Ros and Mogwai, although with slightly softened shades. One could talk about post-pop.
