I don’t always write reviews, Massimof; sometimes (including this one) I open discussions. That bullshit about "punk is dead, who cares" is the biggest load of crap I’ve read in months, so let’s trash Jimi, he died in '70. So screw Bonzo Bonham and Keith Moon since they’re dead, long live Meg White who is alive and well... what kind of reasoning is that? CDs still exist, punk can still be purchased; it doesn’t seem to have been pulled from the market. According to your logic, we should stop talking about old music... since it’s dead. And it’s VoodooChild telling me this, who has only reviewed Jimi, whose last album came out 8 years before this one; it’s Lord Henry saying it, who dusted off a PsychPop album from ten years earlier... come on guys, think before you shoot off these nonsense statements or are you acting out of haste? I agree that the themes of Punk were different from those of ‘68, but that’s a discussion you brought up, and I don’t get what purpose it serves to discuss it; that they’re different seems pretty obvious, especially since I like one and not the other, and after agreeing that they are different, there comes a nice... "so what?" or alternatively another nice "therefore?".

The most beautiful thing you gave me is "Teresa," the first disc. Panthalassa, being mainly piano, can never excite me like the others because I do like the piano, but not as much as the other instruments; plus, I absolutely love Jaco. I'm sure I'll appreciate Laswell more later, I'm still a bit too Hell Yeah :D

Jack La Motta says: That's All Entertainment.

I haven't heard him live, but I like the way he sings on the album. It's clear that this album sucks, though.

Here you go, you talk about '77, a miserable little movement, four brats who didn't want to go to school compared to those from '68. And let me reiterate that talking about the student movement doesn't give a damn to me; I got my middle school diploma and never attended high school for two consecutive days, just imagine how much I care about the sociopolitical impact. I just wanted to let you know that those social issues you claim were reflected in punk were the main topics of the music by Area, who by '76 were already on their fourth album excluding live recordings.

No Lord, I didn't say that you said that punk wanted the revolution, I said that you said: “However, the area wanted the revolution and what did they change?” Because didn’t you write that? But why don’t we just stick to commenting on what someone says instead of interpreting words however the hell we like and coming up with sociopolitical treatises? You brought in student movements and the revolution, I’m talking about fucking music, punk music.

Look, for example, the Consorzio Acqua Potabile is a Prog group led by the same people who were at the forefront of the "revolutionary" student group in Milan. I’m not aware of any punk individuals involved in noteworthy student movements. If you know of any, feel free to list them, as I might be mistaken. NB: I said WORTHY OF NOTE, it's not that your punk friend once participated in a strike and you throw that in, okay...

Are you joking or can't you count? Does 1976 come before or after 1968?

I never said that Area wanted a revolution, that's what you're saying. And look at how my review starts: "Poor things, in '77 they thought they had made the revolution, instead they just made shitty music." So with your last post, you’re even proving my point. And saying REFLECTED is also a ridiculous thing to say for chronological reasons; the Sex Pistols arrived LATE.

You can never really talk about prog as an album because, for example, there are enormous differences between this and Genesis. As a movement, yes, and this is an album born with "musically progressive ideologies," which ultimately just means that "they were trying to do something different from others that didn’t fit into a precise canon." What I’m telling you is that the people who were throwing stones from the rooftops of occupied universities had this kind of albums at home, ranging from Consorzio Acqua Potabile to Albergo Integalattico Spaziale, Banco Del Mutuo Soccorso, Premiata Forneria Marconi, and Rovescio Della Medaglia, going through Le Orme, not the Sex Pistols, and I tell you this with confidence because the Sex Pistols didn’t even exist.
