Long Distance Calling Boundless

They have a nice musicality and I like how they build their pieces, but - aside from the usual issues of "having something left to say" that the genre has carried for about ten years now - they suffer from what is, for me, the most serious flaw: the sounds. There's no experimentation, no personality. Everything is right, calibrated: the guitars are full but not overly distorted, the snare is really too flat, the bass is too perfectly in its place. They remind me a bit of Explosions in The Sky (even though these guys push much more on the heavy and on the big riffs): cool melodies, beautiful soundscapes, exhilarating crescendos, but really very little personality. Another band of this type that I liked quite a bit because when they wanted, they hit like blacksmiths, was Russian Circles (whom I've obviously lost track of a few years ago). I stubbornly continue to think and repeat that Mogwai (even though they've been getting a bit tiresome for me lately...) are musicians a notch or two above.

Brother Mohammed, I am really happy that DeServer has brought your testimony back to light. Unfortunately, yesterday as today, there is a lot of racism here on debaser, but your review is a beautiful message of integration and multiculturalism (but also multiculturismo). Ah' sorrt, brother from Morocco in Italy.

The premise is that I didn’t even know it had been released. Because I admit that, by now, I find it a bit hard to listen to music even in the car. Partly because I’m always on the phone and partly because I discovered the existence of Radio Sportiva and I’ve developed a little bit of a Milanism hangover (or maybe the other way around: cause and effect can easily get confused). That said: I rushed onto YouTube and listened to the title track (because it's an album, right? not a single... I didn’t get that). And to be honest, instinctively it seemed pretty cool to me: basically it’s a pumped-up track from Motorhead, played by 400 barbarians in tank tops, armed with Gibsons, proud and badass, but with an awareness of the ephemerality of the human condition that only a serious problem with tarzanelli can give you. Come on, damn, it’s ignorant and silly just like the ancient testament of the medallo taught us.

It's a book that has all the characteristics to not please or, at the very least, to bore the reader to death. Because, to be honest, everything is anticipated and exhausted (today we would say "spoilered") in the first 20 lines of the novel. The protagonist has nothing truly fascinating about him. Nothing truly gripping happens to him. The writing doesn't have any particular stylistic peaks. Yet one can't help but take to heart the events of this "normal" man, who every time he is on the verge of achieving happiness, is pushed away from it by life. It's the wonderful story of a loser, who, to be fair, does nothing to redeem his condition, but whom one can't help but care for.
Stephen King The Outsider

I completely ditched him for almost two decades after he disappointed me with two books in a row (Gerald's Game - which I've since re-evaluated - and The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon), right before I started reading stuff that was quite different. Since I now read pretty much only to relax, about four years ago, while I was at the beach without even a medicine pamphlet to read, I found myself in a tiny bookstore in a mall and the only thing that vaguely inspired me was one of his novels. I can say I've started reading him again (I read 'The Things They Left Behind,' which I had missed, and I'm halfway through The Dark Tower - as I write, 'The Dark Half' is on my nightstand). As I’ve recently written: he is a genius. I really don't think there’s anyone in modern popular fiction even remotely worthy of licking his underwear for creativity, plot, character development, and a couple thousand other reasons. But, holy moly, how elliptical and wordy is he... It’s quite disturbing even to try to account for the inhuman amount of places, landscapes, and even marginal characters that it’s clear he has perfectly mapped out in his head while he writes. And then he’s the favorite writer of someone I know, who I've saved on my phone as #geenoomerda.

"Thanks to openload, you can retrieve using the link "streaming HD" instead of download, because the "streaming" function will still open the openload page which also allows downloads"... in the deep web, it's said that if you repeat this phrase out loud 666 times, you transform into a cyber porn chic version of Tron and can make love to the USB ports of all your friends' computers. I will try. And I will also follow your advice, dear ones. I don't know if we'll cross paths again before 2019, so I wish you to eat and drink very well during this holiday season. And to rest. And maybe to make love, not just with yourselves. Warmest regards.

A tip that seems amusing, suitable for a carefree perspective. More than anything, I'm asking anyone passing by: where do you recover movies? Back in the day, there was tntvillage and il corsaro nero, but they shut them down. For a few months, 1677x and its derivatives worked, but for at least a month now, nothing seems to be found (better put: everything is out there, but you can't seem to catch the magnets). Asking for a friend. Thanks.

Well, I kind of like you. I don’t know what issues you’ve had with the others, but frankly, I don’t care much. You write pretty badly, but in a way that doesn't annoy me, and you’re polite in your comments. Plus, it seems we have some tastes in common. I'm not saying that if I were a homosexual I would happen to be in the same bathroom of the service area as you, but I would definitely consider sending you a friend request on Facebook to tease you on Messenger. Now, though, I’m going to read the other things you've written and see.

I preferred the review. I didn't prefer one from 2007. Soon I will caress myself. My caress will be for Cristina's still generous breasts. And for you.
