..:DDDD!!!..you're right!!..kind of like the "throat-slasher" gesture when he sings "Pleasure To Kill" (I've seen him play it 3 times and he did it 3 times!!)..all in all, great moments!

..Mille is really a good guy.. too bad he has to fill the concert with nonsense between songs. Last month I went to see Kreator - Celtic Frost. At a certain point, Mille comes out with a story like: "This afternoon, we were all a bit nervous, thinking about how the concert would go.. I looked the guys in the eyes and saw so much desire to give you a great show.. and then, when we got on stage, I started to feel a great aggression in the air.. do you feel the aggression in the air?!? ..I said, do you feel the aggression in the air?!? ..Milan! let me see all your aggression!!.. EXXXTREEEEMMEE AAGGGRREEESSSIIOOOONNNNNN!!!" ..and the crowd went wild.. and I was shaking my head in bewilderment..

..I understood more or less half of the review.. but the film is splendid: with that black and white tinted blue.. at times unsettling, at times pure poetry.. Difficult, perhaps, but highly recommended..

Good morning everyone!!..and thank you so much for the votes-comments! @Federico: eehhh.. great truths in your comment!.. indeed, until the last moment I was undecided about what score to assign to the album. Maybe a 3 would have been more appropriate, but I thought I’d reward the "historical significance" (for the genre, obviously.. :DDD!) of this release.. The Destruction album was effectively a "blast-off" debut, but perhaps the first LP didn’t quite deliver on all its promises. The drumming work is, objectively, mediocre and Schmier's singing has never blown me away. But, above all, what I believe is the true weak point of the album, is the scant number of riffs. Even the "hit" Bestial Invasion is basically built on the alternate repetition of just over a couple of riffs.. truly too few to give real depth to the compositions. All in all, however, my metal childhood was abundantly entertained by this round of vinyl and a 4 has never hurt anyone!! Bye everyone and thank you!!

I completely agree: ever since I got the mule to retrieve records for which I would have spent a fortune or wandered through dozens of little shops around Europe, or dozens of stalls at some record fair, it now takes me the time of a fart after a big plate of pasta and beans... it's a great thing, don't get me wrong, and I don't want to be one of those who says "things were better back in the day," but a big part of the "magic," of the exchange, of the race to see who has more records, or who has certain records, is missing for me. Not to mention that I find my hard drive stuffed full of stuff... too much stuff! It ends up that I give a quick listen to a ton of records and then immediately move on to the next. Others even just lie there undisturbed for weeks, and when I finally have time to listen to them, I couldn’t care less! I remember every note, every transition of the records I used to listen to when I was younger (I remember one time when my friend and I decided to "play" all of South Of Heaven in verses... :DDDD).. of those discovered in the last two years, I have only vague memories… eeehh… what a terrible thing to get old… :DDD! P.S.: check out the coincidences sometimes... this afternoon (I believe..) reread your last comment and then try to look on that page... you might find a surprise!! Bye!
Quentin Tarantino Kill Bill Vol. 1

@bjork: sorry for not replying to your message right away (after sending the previous one, I went out for dinner!!:DDDD!!). I agree with you when you say that Tarantino had to "turn" his cinema around, etc. etc. (..I SEEM to remember that Jackie Brown - which I personally appreciate - was something of a flop.. maybe because people were expecting a new Pulp Fiction.. who knows.. I don't remember). But let's talk about how he did it: a film that's, I don't even know how many hours long, in which he managed to cram in more or less all his favorite genres, but "exaggerated" in his own way, just as the audience was expecting from him. He took some clichés that he loves and managed to fit them into a single film.. At certain points, there's almost a sense that he wanted to make his own "final statement" on some genres + some scenes seem to be purely for the sake of his (undeniable) technique. Is it really a "renewal"?.. is it really "turning" his cinema around?! Sorry, but it all smells a bit like "directorial masturbation" to me.. Well.. it's Monday morning: I'm sleepy and a bit annoyed.. I guess this comment won't make much sense! Have a great day, everyone!
Black Sabbath Paranoid
Voto:
…I can't understand why, systematically, with every review of Black Sabbath, this whole thing about Iommi being the "best metal guitarist" comes up… apart from the fact that there’s room for discussion about the "metal" identity of the early albums (I’m not saying it’s not metal… just that some clarifications are needed), but, in any case, can we understand that Iommi IS NOT A TECHNICAL GUITARIST?!?!… saying the opposite means, depending on the case, either not understanding shit about music or not understanding shit about guitar. As I’ve already said and don’t remember where anymore, Iommi is God. Period. But certainly not because he was good at playing!... nonetheless, Paranoid, Iron Man, N.I.B. and the like are the first songs (metal or not metal) that a metal guitarist learns to play!... for crying out loud…

...even worse than the first one... which is saying something... "3" and I'm being generous...
