Necro I Need Drugs
Voto:
I haven't read his autobiography since it doesn't exist, and even if it did, I wouldn't read it anyway. But I don't quite understand what you mean by "non ne sai un cazzo di Necro." I have all his albums (though I've only bought this one), I have the entire Psycho+Logical production (but I've only bought Ill Bill), the lyrics are very clear, and I've read many of them too. I've been following him since this album, which is the first in the saga. If you mean that I don't know what shoe size he wears, I can agree with that, but for everything else, I believe I know enough about him and the environment he moves in to write a review.

It depends on what you like; the "easiest" or "most accessible" is Houdinì, followed by this and the early works. Otherwise, there are those that are more aggressive and experimental, like Lysol, Bullhead, Honky. Or the latest works that have various elements; for example, in "The Bootlicker," there isn’t even one guitar riff, not a single one, just a couple of clean guitar plucks here and there. In the end, I’d say Stoner Witch; I started from there, and it worked. It's a bit tough, between the nonsense and everything else, there are thirty albums :)

Excellent. The description "crushing debut Grunge album" is a bit of an exaggeration, considering that they had already "started the movement" a few years earlier with 16 songs, but it fits well within the context since we are still talking about the Melvins, and when it comes to Grunge (and not just that), you can't escape them. Anyway, the writing is excellent; "elefante in distilleria" is truly anthological.

Oh yes, a separate case in the discography of the Magnet: not by chance I didn't include my beloved "stoner" in the genres, definitely very different from something like Spine Of God or Superjudge. For example, I would never recommend another Magnet album to Hal apart from this one; this one is much softer and psychedelic, you won’t find any loud guitar riffs or drumming outbursts, it’s a floaty trip through space, while Spine or Superjudge are more about "interstellar storm", I join Rocky and his "reassess Psycho!" ;-)

Ah, they aren't singers, they're Mcs: Zack, in terms of rhythm, style, flow, and content, gives Rey a run for his money. The voice is more of a distraction, you can even overlook it; it's the rhymes that make the mc :)

I don't know, I think you have your ears blocked because RATM have sold millions of albums, it's a snobby attitude. Read the interviews with D.Set, see what they say about RATM. It doesn’t make sense because it would be like saying "Hooray for Nirvana and fuck the Melvins"; without RATM you wouldn't have D.Set, according to D.Set themselves, mind you. Shamelessly derivative, it’s obvious: D.Set are RATM with a less technical guitarist but with a good drummer, the only difference is the sound, the rest is quite obviously derivative. Even you, despite talking bad about them, have mentioned Zack & Co. multiple times in this conversation because the derivation is evident. They can be as much to your liking as you want, I like them too, but they're just a faded version of RATM, there's little to go around it. RATM, as Sahen Embury would say, are "Leaders, not Followers"; you can also like the Floowers, but being against the Leaders doesn’t make sense. :) Ah, maybe you already know it, but I’ll give it to you anyway, this is the website of a friend of mine about D.Set, in Italian -> downset.tk <- maybe you'll find some nice interviews there too :)
