We have met before, and I discovered in the comments of your rec. the bitter fate of the singer... I agree with Bogus. But the early Bisca and Detonazione would also be an interesting revival, perhaps equally difficult to find... The score for the album is by default (of a half).

I just arrived and I'm not expressing myself since I don't know the subject of the dispute. But what happened to you, old Rocky? Why that abrupt renunciation? The review is more than decent, if only there were more... It would have been a 4, but considering your "self-flagellation," a 5 is needed to balance it out. Kisses to you too.

'F**k. Thanks. I'll take it.

Caz, things are not as you say, or as you try to make them seem. The only out-of-place element here is the insistence on justifying a miserable conclusion. And also the practice of using the pretext of a record that is hardly talked about to express haphazard judgments about a group, an individual, and to engage in barroom sociology. The "discourse" has expanded, as far as I'm concerned, only because of this insistence. I reread what was written. It seems to me that everything is very clear and not at all laconic. In short, if we wanted to understand each other, we did. I understood what you are saying, and I completely disagree. Instead, I have the impression that you don't really care much about what others think, and that your tendency to "use" only a part of others' arguments, often misrepresenting them, to express absolute judgments is a constant. I'll stop here, but I insist on one thing: it’s truly a beautiful day here, I hope it is the same on your magnificent island. Regards.

Caz, sometimes it would be better if you just kept quiet. You haven't understood, and that’s clear. On the other hand, I had said that the issue is complex and articulated; I couldn’t expect you to make an effort to break free from your elementary schematism. But you can't reduce others' arguments as you please, without even grasping their meaning. It wouldn't make sense that from now on anyone who doesn't accept to see things your way, including me or anyone else, has to remain silent.
It’s a beautiful day, enjoy it. Bye.

El Guevo, My Mother's Hymn, lives up to this? With a similar production, with these sounds?

Damn, I'm not God to choose which death or form of death deserves respect. I have no opinion of Cobain as an individual, and I don't care to have one. I don't know him, and I don't want to know him. I've already said on other occasions that it doesn't seem necessary to establish relationships between work and author, especially personal interpretations of an author’s life (how the hell can you judge the life and choices, even so definitively, of someone born, lived, and died thousands of kilometers away from you? Have you ever dealt with death and suicides? I have, unfortunately, multiple times, and I assure you I've never had the presumption to understand, let alone judge). On the other hand, I've met various musicians and performers, both Italian and foreign. Of some, I can tell you that if it depended on the impression I got from the meeting, I wouldn't listen to their records. But I keep doing it because those records are good records, sometimes great records. And that's what matters to me. This issue is much more complex and articulated than it seems, because it involves the entire "production system" and distribution and dissemination of the musical "product," which is a jumble of contradictions and manipulations and partly bases its effectiveness on the conveyance of representations (both negative and positive) of musicians as icons or idols. I'm not interested in fostering this childish view of things. I can't move forward; it's a thorny path. I hope I've explained myself. I have a lot of things to do. See you around, have a good day, bye.

For ptr: the latest, Symbol, is good.

Yeah, come on. We understand each other, I know. But it's just us here, I’ll step aside and hope someone else comes along. P.S. - Before I leave, I invite you to throw in some samples too. Ever since I discovered the simplicity of the operation (I managed to do it too!), I’ve been advocating for the practice...
See you

egebamyasi, 4, on a scale of 5, seems more than good to me... you know, in any case, the grade is just part of the matter. You’re kind. I believe I comment as much as possible regarding the albums in question and to get further information, but sometimes I get drawn into "polemiche" etranee, generally when absolute or offensive statements are made, which are always the death of any "conversation." It seems to be happening with a certain frequency lately. Could it be the heat? Bai bai
