I really liked them on Crack The Skye, and I started appreciating them with Blood Mountain. I listened to this once and it's not for me. They are one of the top contenders in my personal "stop singing and play more" ranking. That ranking is led by Neurosis; it's incredible how much I love that music and how much I hate that singing, and hearing him here too was the final blow, they did it on purpose.

I bought the album by the then-unknown Subsonica after hearing Velociraptor - I sold it right after because it was practically the only good track (maybe because the bald guy was shoving the microphone up his ass instead of in his mouth).

I preferred Volta to Medulla. I’ve listened to this one twice and I don't like the fact that she insists almost in every track on sending her voice off-beat with the instrumentals. Some will surely like it, but I preferred it to be easier and more pop. Even though the instrumentals are definitely better than those on Volta (especially the ones with Timbaland's little sounds). I don’t understand all those who talk about “copycat works” and “always the same thing”; the sounds change, the rhythms change (drastically, by the way), she will sing in the same way and with the same tone, but it’s not like you can implant Pavarotti's vocal cords. She has the little voice for lullabies, and she uses that little voice to make lullabies. If she used vocoders and autotune, they would say “oh look, she’s washed up because she doesn’t have the courage to sing anymore.” The whole iPhone thing is a “plus”; as long as there’s no extra cost, I’d understand, but since it costs the same, it's fine. Better an application for iPhone than the Gorillaz album made with an iPad (okay, it was free, but man, what crap).

Wait, all this fuss is for a single song? I'm not even reading it, I'm going to listen to it. You've convinced me with your keyboard sweat.

Laugh now, because you just picked it up. Cry later, because you wasted an hour of your life listening to it. Antagonist and I take pleasure in it, I am a cubist ice, I am a cubist ice.

Now I understand how Yosif had two terabytes of mp3s, he had two of these bastards' drives!

At first, I didn't understand why only four dots, but then I realized you care a lot about the singer; you even wrote, "Of course, an hour and a half of instrumental concert might seem uninviting"... for a jazz band? Are you sure? Anyway, Fariselli has always been the spokesperson for the group, not to mention the one who wrote 90% of the pieces along with Capiozzo, also a co-founder (with Capiozzo), and the one who holds the rights to Area (with the Capiozzo family). Stratos is as talented as they come, but he always added his voice (and lyrics from others) to a piece that was almost finished. At most, I would have made a fuss about the absence of Capiozzo more than anything else; the Walter they got is good, but obviously lacks the chemistry needed to replace a genius like the original. I was recently at one of their shows, and it was the most mind-blowing concert I've ever seen. Tofani's instrument has a wonderful sound, Fariselli's keyboards are way better today than back then, and Tavolazzi has even more groove than in the good old days. Forget about "not living up to the past"; they are an extraordinary force. Who cares about the singer? They are one hell of a jazz band.

"It looks like 'The Wire' is great, and Method Man is in it too. Nice shot."
