It's not that it gets on my nerves, it's just a "it would be better if." Come on, it would be better; this Growl makes no damn sense to me.

Well Sam, I like Black Flag. I say I don't like the genre because out of 3000 bands, I only like a few (Zeke and a couple of others from the current scene, and then all the pioneers up to 1980, with the exception of Fugazi), so it's easier this way. But still, the genre can be nice if you want it to be; the problem is that it's all a copy of the predecessors. I find them really hilarious, a parody band.

If we're talking about beauty, Baby Woodrose wins with "Blow Your Mind!" -> Ingrandisci questa immagine <- Here it doesn't do much justice; live, it has dazzling colors that triple the experience. On the other hand, when we talk about Orride Moon, he’s not entirely wrong; I had forgotten that gem from Deat SS. Thank goodness he’s around to remind us of the nonsense (this is heavy, huh? You’ll have to resort to the mirror-reflection-without-return). But Blotter takes the cake; everyone with their tongues out, each with three tabs, is the epitome of bad taste, totally cool.

Damn, I bought Dopesmoker for $12, and those idiots at V.Magic are putting Jerusalem at €18. I believe it's available because that's a robbery price, as always: Vinil Magic is practically like a loan shark association.

I ordered it on Friday from the site you linked, give me time for it to arrive, okay? :D

You can take anything from Sleep; they’re all better than the last. Jus should definitely pay Matt Pike a lot of royalties, in my opinion. Just be careful not to buy both Jerusalem (which you can only find used) and Dopesmoker, since Dopesmoker is nothing but a reissue of Jerusalem with the addition of another one of those short pieces done their way. Then just look at how many people have reissued or referenced Dragonaut, the track that opens the album. There are people who made the EP DrUganaut (Black Mountain, by the way, if you take out "Holy" and put in "Black"...), there are people who call themselves Dragonauta, etc. When you listen to Sleep, you spend your time saying, “Damn, this person copied that from this guy! Man, this one took that directly from this other guy!” Then after you’ve heard Holy Mountain, you should also watch the film by Alejandro Jodorowsky, the same title (but from 1973, or maybe '74), the album takes its name from there, pure delirium.

Siena is a monumental event, certainly somewhat spoiled by advertising and Pelù, but it was already designed from the start to be the largest live performance of PFM (even though I personally favor the live version in the USA, maybe for snobbery). I've never seen footage of this in Japan, but I don’t think they had the tons of equipment that Siena did. Siena wins for sound variety; they brought two Moogs, a Fender, and other keyboards I couldn’t recognize. The drum set starts in Siena and travels to Pistoia, plus there’s a guest drummer (who I can never remember the name of, but he looks like Chris Slade from AC/DC in '91). There’s half the world on that stage. The standout highlight: the reunion with Mauro Pagani, not just any old thing. Many people find it annoying because it was super-planned as an event, but I think it turned out well: tons of solos, an incredible weaving of sounds, and masterful production and recording :)

Well, there are millions of Doom records, Death To Music is definitely less Doom but still filled with beautiful things and various digressions across many sub-genres (sub-genres because we’re still talking about "Heavy"). The problem with this one, which as Rocky says is "the least beautiful," is that it has to face off against a masterpiece of Acid Doom like Blotter, so it loses with honor :)
