Massimof, you still haven't realized where you are. You don't even know whose house you're in, you haven't even read what the site requires from the reviewer... your requests are just the usual requests for pasta allo scoglio at the ice cream parlor.

I knew that Felix had a brother, but I didn't know he played the drums... Actually, it makes sense: together, they form a completely Pastorizzated rhythm section. I’ll have those with a decent connection download the stuff from Jaco's site, then I’ll let you know. I'll try to steal the biography from its owner; I don’t think it can be found in a bookstore in my city, but in the meantime, there are 20 copies of Ligabue's book and 30 of U2's, and all of this fills me with pride for my city, a place that deserves to be blessed by San Nervino, aka gas, nervino.

Ah no no, television screens. When Jaco died, I was in elementary school; when this was recorded, I wasn’t even born, and when you saw Ron Carter, I was taking the training wheels off my bike. Regarding the bassists you mentioned, I'm missing a few: Weber, Pedersen & Garrison. Oh, I might have a record or more where they play, but I don’t remember their names. As I say in this review, I thought I didn’t know Michael Brecker, while in fact I had several records featuring him; I should check the credits of the CDs. I have Manring since he was a student of Jaco (he’s the guy who wrote Jaco's biography, worked his ass off, and gathered every little thing about Pastorizzato third; I learned everything at first by osmosis, then I had CDs copied for me, and then I started buying Jaco-related stuff myself) and I like him a lot; you can tell he’s a musical adopted child of Pastorizzato. I know Egan as a regular and very welcome guest of the Patrizio Metini Banda; indeed, his name doesn’t usually come up in discussions, although following Patrizio through his evolutions requires some serious balls. Matthew Garrison is the same, another one who doesn’t come up much, but his name is a bit everywhere. If I’m not mistaken, I have a couple of live CDs (doubled, I don’t remember titles etc.) with McLaughlin and something with Hancock; I’ll check tonight and listen to them again.

mmmmhhh... yeah, you’re right: maybe I don’t like it because it's too Hardcore and not enough Metal. The genre is actually nothing more than a mix of the two (usually leaning more towards metal), and thinking about it, the Hardcore element is quite present. I don’t like Hardcore, yep, you've found the solution, good job. Since we’re talking about Napalm, I’ll wrap up by reiterating that Bill Steer & Lee Dorrian are two cool guys, one more than the other and the other more than the first. See, the latest Cathedral, damn, I really liked it, that was a very welcome return.

Yes, yes, him, him. However, under the name Merzbow he does more noise-based stuff; when he collaborates with people under his "baptismal" name (but do the Japanese get baptized?), he does darker, more Puppyane ebiemmiane electronic things... in short, he does things more similar to this, but he uses more polished sounds. The flaw in this lies in the technical elaboration itself; the record is there, but it's not very refined. As for the tactile part, I wouldn't know how to handle it; I could use emojis :)

I give it 4 because Shane now adopts the hairstyle of Buzzo The King. Have you listened to Venomous Concept? Well, that’s a GRIND album from 2005. Buzzo is the King, accompanied by Embury makes for two Kings. Two Kings, against only Embury pulling the venerable Napalm forward. Times evolve, either you evolve or you end up in the truck lane. In a nutshell: come on, if only there were the Napalm, but damn, there’s only one left... and you can tell.

Well, taste-wise it's a yes and no, it's on the same line as the others, the set objective is identical, the techniques are the same... but the others are super cool, this one is not. I don't know how much the de-gustibus matters. Let's focus more on "evaluation opinions" rather than the actual "taste." Taste is "I can't stand Napalm in any form," while "long live Napalm but this one a lot less" is a bit different. Plus, I hate the de-gustibus, it's a matter of tastes regarding statements... but maybe not. Let's go for an optional Hell, you can really feel that the two original guitarists are missing, damn if it shows. Wow, do we miss them. Excellent work by Mr. Cicciopanza Shane Embury, that’s for sure, but a Grind album doesn't thrive on bass alone.

Anyway, let’s give him Mr. Masami's phone number; it would really help him: those are the sounds of 2005. Damn, even of 2012.

Well, de gustibus si & no, it’s on the same line as the others, the set goal is identical, the techniques too... but the others are super cool, this one isn’t. I’m not sure how much the de gustibus counts. Let’s focus more on "evaluative opinions" than on true "taste." Taste is "I can’t stand puppies in every form," while "long live puppies but this one much less" is a bit different. Also, I hate de gustibus, it's a matter of taste regarding statements... but also not. Let's opt for an optional "but in the end, everything is relative, given that there’s no longer a shoulder season, after all, if we think that once upon a time this was all countryside...". I’d say, finally: maybe.

"Aside from the self-recycling that can be highly valued depending on personal taste." I ate 6-7 words, effects of the various open windows. Close it, there's a draft.
