Heard (very little) a while ago and immediately filed away, given the overly metal vibe. You’re always good.
Siena Root Kaleidoscope

Psycholuccio!! Look, to tell the truth, lately I don’t even have time to listen to new stuff anymore... The other day I tried to squeeze in an unplanned listening session and nearly showed up late to a meeting. The esteemed Dr. Fottermeier had mentioned the latest Siena Root (positively), but I think I filed it under: "I’ll listen to this as soon as I win the lottery and move to a hut in the Maldives with beer and girdischi." In the meantime, on Sunday night, I drove 200 km to see the seasoned Azzo and the promising OleEinar White Hills (I bought Heads on Fire on vinyl) + Pontiak: great concert. The first ones more rowdy and chaotic, the second ones really cool. By the way, I didn’t realize that the guy who sold us the records was actually one of the twins. Recently, people have been saying great things about Mondo Drag...

At the moment I’m extremely tired and I fear my comment won’t be very clear-headed. I think the review is nice, perhaps even beautiful. It’s frustrating because I had a celebratory double one planned for your first review, and instead I have to give you a 5. Justice in Italy dies every day, not because of decrees or bills, but because it has stopped being something "sacred," something before which one would take off their hat. Today people show up in court in flip-flops with a cigarette in their mouth. Ethical codes are treated like toilet paper. Even the judges have adapted to the trend, partly because they’re overwhelmed by impossible workloads, and partly because it's convenient for them too. Long story. And I’m too ignorant. Well done, geenoo.

Guided by Junio's comment on Vitalogy's decaploid, I am about to offer my humble remedy to the commentary shortage on this page (quite lovely...). And a beautiful mention.
Pearl Jam Vitalogy

When it came out, my greasy-haired crew and I were very disappointed. Basically because we wanted another VS. And then it was too fragmented, too inconsistent, and there were too many ballads and too many silly songs. But then, weeks went by and every time a different song would surface that we were obsessed with. Six months ago, I was in the car with two survivors from that very crew, and we still remembered that album by heart. As for the whole "rockstar pose" thing, frankly, I wonder who back then was immune to it. And to those bastards, I owe one of the most beautiful concerts I’ve ever seen...
Iron Monkey Iron Monkey

I quote Kemo: indeed, the Iron Monkey of slagg at OcchioOdioZeus has very little, precisely because there are no hardcore outbursts. Theirs was more of an ultra-pomp English stoner-doom, with a vocalist who made the one from Immortal sound like the little kid singing "Il coccodrillo come fa." That alone was cool (and by the way, I haven't heard it in ages), but the real jackpot, in my opinion, is with Our Problem.

Beautiful review.

Lately, you’ve been really good. I’m sorry I don’t have time to read them all... By the way, it’s been a month since I’ve watched a movie. Great recommendation.

I read it when I was too young: I hated it deeply. For years I've been telling myself that I should read it again... You're really good.
