You are a piece of shit. And a son of a bitch too, there's nothing more to say... Your manners speak for themselves...

In my endless musical randomness, I also stumbled upon TV ON THE RADIO. I must admit that it's not a genre I particularly favor, and I had guessed that from reading about it here and there, but I like to listen to a bit of everything even at the risk of breaking my horns. Nevertheless, it’s undeniable to acknowledge their uncommon quality.

It's the only record I own by Tuxedomoon, and it's on vinyl too. It's been ages since I last listened to it. I really mean a lifetime. I remember that when I bought it, the shopkeeper (very knowledgeable) congratulated me on my choice. However, it doesn’t seem very new wave to me as you described it, but I could be mistaken.

I don't really like writing nonsense without limits and inventing a new alphabet. Maybe I'm old-fashioned! The album is great, but hasn't anyone heard it?

@DaveJonGilmour (also known as ArnorldLayne), I wanted to give you some news if you aren’t already aware. But it's also good for all Pink Floyd fans and lovers of good music in general. It seems that this coming autumn, EMI will be preparing a new remastered edition of the Floyd's debut album, The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn, and it's going to be a triple set. One disc will contain the mono version of the aforementioned work, another will have the stereo version, while a third disc will include unreleased tracks, rarities, and demos from that period. In addition, there will be a booklet with notes and illustrations written by Syd Barrett's own hand. Let’s hope the price won’t be too steep.

Mr. Valeriorivoli, you gave a 1 to my review of the Tiromancino (and I can accept that) and you also gave a 1 to the Tiromancino album (and that’s fine too). Your post in that regard was "mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmerda". Scrolling through the albums you've reviewed, this one included, I assume you have a rather uncertain idea of the concept of shit. I don't feel like reading the review, I just vote for the album.

Hi Odra. I hope the album I reviewed sounds pleasant to your ears as it did to mine. And also for cptgaio, who has already hurriedly listened to it. Thank you for your input, and I'm sorry that almost no one is intrigued by niche albums. Until next time.

Hello Ghemison. If memory serves me right, this is your first appearance in one of my reviews. Oh my, it doesn't take a Mirandolesque memory to remember those who leave comments under my writings. As you can see, you're the only one who has commented. I wish I had four posts instead. To be honest, I thought someone might have heard of this work. It's true that there are thousands of cult albums, but still, on a purely music-oriented site, I expected to run into someone on this wavelength. You’re right about the deeper analyses, but I am fundamentally against long-winded reviews. They already don’t read me as it is... goodbye.

Honestly, I struggle to understand all this bitterness towards me. Did I do something in particular that I'm unaware of, or do I perhaps have an unpleasant face? Anyway: I didn’t copy anything from what you listed. Two words are not enough to claim that someone has plagiarized. If we start nitpicking all the reviews, I suppose it’s unimaginable to continuously coin new terms and phrases. Some repetition is inevitable. Regarding the link referring to Prince, Sly Stone, and Hendrix, I am not aware of its existence. More simply, I read the booklet that came with the CD, and although (I must admit) my English is very, very lacking and clumsy, I managed to understand those three names in between the lines. I don’t see anything strange about that. Anyway, the High Llamas and Steely Dan aren’t mentioned (and it would be odd if they were, otherwise you would have cited them as well). As for the expressions I used, which I won't repeat (just read above), I’ll tell you that maybe you’re right, but considering I've been reading about music for over twenty years, it’s possible that, even unconsciously, music critics have had some influence on me. You might also be right when you say that music should be listened to. Not that I don’t listen to it, but perhaps I don’t devote as much attention to it as I used to. Twenty years, alas, only come once in a lifetime. I can assure you though that this CD is one I’ve been listening to quite frequently lately. Now I’ll close: if someone (not just me) speaks (whether positively or negatively) about a niche album, no one pays attention. So, let’s not complain about the hundred reviews on Pink Floyd or Queen. Bye.

I liked the review. Blonde Redhead, despite being criticized from various quarters for having turned towards easy-listening, I consider them an excellent band. Even the undervalued "23," in my opinion, is a good album. Maybe you're right when I say that they're a bit too polished, even on record.
