The Punisher

Shitty review for a fucking album.

Great album indeed, a real turning point in the early '80s!!

I don't understand and I don't conform. I haven't understood a damn thing about what kind of music is in this CD, but it smells like just another hoax...

Masturbation is nothing short of epoch-making, perhaps in partnership with "Zero tolerance for silence" by Pat Metheny. It's almost like giving yourself a handjob, filming it, and then making a DVD to distribute to the world. But I mean, if you want to give yourself a handjob (and one is still free to do what they want), do it in silence and keep it to yourself without bothering the whole world!

It will be the masterpiece you say, it's just a shame that the previous album was something I found unbearable... it will be tough to recover from the shock and listen to something new from this band: it's hard to believe that one goes from 1 star to 5 from one album to another, very difficult...

Look Giubbo, the thing is that you (and all your kind) take bits of other people's speeches and adapt them to your needs, modifying them if necessary to support your theses: I never said "a film shouldn't be watched twice, otherwise it means it's bad"... pay attention, my dear, I said "a film shouldn't be watched twice, otherwise it probably means the director made a mistake".... Therefore, dear Manipulator Giubbo, BE VERY CAREFUL about "what you say" and "what you refer to" because things are very different: the first phrase is objectively nonsense, the second, if you think about it, has some "crumbs of truth" in it... So, as you can see, reality for you CHANGES and suddenly becomes what you would like to hear, and this applies to many other things.
STAY ALERT Giubbo, always count to 20 before you pass judgment and always think about the lens you put in front of you when judging things, otherwise reality slips out of your hands and becomes ONLY what you make up in your head.
I repeat, to avoid misunderstandings: FOR ME 100th windows is a so-so album, much better are the others... in fact, even DANNY THE DOG isn't that great.

"a record that will be placed in ten years in some column like 'neglected masterpieces' in some industry magazine"... I will NEVER believe it because the album is half a joke and I've heard everyone say this, not one person has said "yes, but, after all"... NOT ONE. It's a joke and it will remain one: if you want to get lost in your mental gymnastics about the IFs and BUTs, feel free...

Disc of infinite mediocrity... if it weren't for Monster, R.E.M. would have entered rock history with their heads held high!

I didn't like it much either... they've found the magic formula, and just wait and see, they'll probably serve it up to us for another 3 or 4 albums... well!!

A colossal half-baked idea... luckily you reviewed it because I was planning to tear it apart in one of my upcoming reviews...
