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.

I love, adore, and idolize Napalm Death. But you are really too, too generous with the ratings. A 5 for this? Not even close; a 3, if I'm being nice, come on…

their least successful work. Sounds that are out of touch with the times, except for the self-recycling which can be highly personal. A real sore point: production that doesn’t shake the walls, at best the mouse... disappointment. I agree with Agro, if this is a 5, the others are a 34. A good production and a (much, much) more careful work on the sounds could have earned it a 4.5, because in the end, the ideas are definitely there, but an electronic album from 2004 demands much more compared to their beginnings of 20 years ago. Someone should introduce them to Masami Akita.

All very emo. I rate the concert based on the two bands.

Well, I've seen every Jaco video and I own them among bootlegs, originals, and never-released ones that are floating around online. Him solo, W.Report both with official members and special additions, him with Joni, him and some people I didn't recognize, etc. I have more videos than Wooten, but only because Woot is more recent and thus there’s more stuff available. I also have about 5 or 6 dates from Bass Day; at the one in 2004 (I think) the event is closed by Felix, Jaco's son, with Jaco's bass (at least that's what it looks like from the sorry state of the bass being played). Now let’s see: I’m well-stocked with Dave Holland (in the last 5-6 years they’ve released quite a bit of his video material). I have little of Clarke, and most of what I have is the recent crap. What I still need to gather a lot on is Marcus Miller on bass: I have a lot of stuff but I think it's only about 30% of the immense spaceship of material he’s produced; for example, I have nothing of Miller on keyboards. Absolute void of videos on Ron Carter, I don’t have even half of one except for a bootleg of about twenty minutes from the early 80s led by Cobham: Dukes Of something, I believe. But I console myself with the triple DVD of Ligabue and the box set of the Unreleased by Toto Cutugno... hell yeah.

<<< As for the FM, personally I don't see the classic (and obvious) stoner references you mentioned >>> There are two possibilities: either you’re confusing the album and the band, or you’re pulling my leg. This is even more outrageous than the one about the Rush <<<the references are much more banal and less sophisticated than you want to make me believe>>> Never said anything like that, I was just pointing out that the Rush have as much in common with the Manchu as the King Crimson do with the Libertines; the proportion is exactly the same. Anyway, keep going: your comments are all pearls to be included in the annals, alongside those of Francis; at this rate, you might even surpass him.
