David Sylvian Everything and Nothing
Voto:
The first time, I thought you were joking, but since you insist, I have to deduce that you are serious: self-voting, with a maximum score, even repeated? Well, the elegance of Sylvian seems not to leave any traces on some of his listeners... What a shame, because your recs aren't bad. A bad score for this para-onanistic practice.

Good morning, Ege. Always at work, I see. Always dealing with rescues more or less "important." I really don’t remember these. And as usual, then, I come to bother you with a request, this time even more motivated, I believe (just for the Japanese market, you say…): a few simpol, please?
Laura Nyro Eli And The Thirteenth Confession
Voto:
Ulysses, this is your first, if I'm not mistaken: welcome. It's good, concise, useful to shed a little light on a figure that needs to be rescued from oblivion. The only thing I cannot agree with is the comparison to Amos.
Lou Reed Metal Machine Music

Dear Enk, don’t you know yet? When we have doubts, when some hidden meaning escapes us, when we’re unable to express judgments, EnciclopeScaruffi is the answer. Speaking of this album, here’s his concise interpretation: "The most epic moment of his career came when, unexpectedly, he recorded the electro-noise nightmare of Metal Machine Music (1975), a double album that constitutes one of the most radical experiments of the century: only with an arsenal of distorters, amplifiers, filters, tremolo, and modulators, Reed generates abstract cacophonies that have no logical development." One of the most radical experiments of the century, got it Enk?
The Arcade Fire Funeral

Michi, this is already the second review, you wouldn't have been the first anyway. The album, released last year, stands up to repeated listens much better than so many vapid new big things that disappeared after two spins on the merry-go-round...
Miles Davis Bitches Brew
Voto:
Well... It's an important album, I also believe that you can do better. Clearly, this record stimulates "literary" attempts....
The score is half a point short.

For Stephen Write: sorry for being picky, but you should reconsider the opening sentence of the review; that "which" doesn't work and is frankly unsightly.
For La Pianiste: are you "the one" by Michael Haneke?
For Boredom: the one reviewed by zzzzzzzzzzz (in the box on the right) is a really great album, as well as the other one (rec. A, Sapio).
