It must be a nice place, Bukowski :)

My favorite will always be the first one I listened to: Red Medicine. But it’s just a matter of affection. I don’t even know what “emo” is, yet I endorse everything you all said in the comments. Except for those from Galakordi, who doesn’t even know what he’s talking about and would do better not to hold in his farts, as it’s clear that the intestinal gas has traveled up to his skull, compressing his brain and preventing fluid thought. Good job, birobiro, start from 13 Songs...i'm a patient boy...i wait, i wait, i wait, i wait...

Piergiorgio, are we talking about someone who produces a record with the SOLE purpose of selling, or about a person who picks up an instrument, writes a lyric, or screams into a microphone? Because for me, the two things are very different. In point 1, where you generalized, and I might have misinterpreted, you exclude a priori that someone could be driven solely by the desire to communicate, to create, to invent...and that's bullshit. I'm sure you expressed yourself poorly. Right? And then, while generalizing, you excluded the possibility that there are those who truly believe in your work and produce you (I’ve never talked to a record label, but have you spoken with all of them?). As Punisher says, there are many labels that produce and believe in good music without expecting the moon. The expenses for promoting the Blue, all the print and video advertising, the production of their videos, the thousands of TV appearances have a cost that is quite different from the promotion and production of a record by Old Time Relijun, right? It goes without saying that the expectations of the record label change radically. Then one should clarify something...living off your music (meaning earning from the sales of a record) doesn’t equate to being able to afford a BMW? Lou Barlow hasn't sold a shitload of records for a few years (he said it himself in an interview), yet he continues to make them.

I might look like an asshole, but damn, how can you even think about point 1? Come on, it was a provocation, and I fell for it like a chicken.

Great easy, I'm currently busy with something else, but I'll give it a listen if I can.

Piergiorgio, do you really believe the things you've written or are you participating in the annual Asshole Fair?

Despite my love for Fugazi, I admit my ignorance: I don't know, except by reputation, "the most important hardcore band, for god's sake." However, I also appreciated the return of ngw.

In addition to having outrageous prices and slow delivery times, they sell records that they then can't find. Some time ago, I ordered Sound Of Confusion, and it took them 2 months to tell me that it was unavailable, even though it was listed in the offers. Damn... Ghemison are not from Forlì province but rather from the city of Modena... Modenaaa is a thousand colors!

I don't know, I'll try with my dealer, since he's also a fan of Faust and the whole gang. Maybe he'll find it; I want this one in original. On cdbox they say they have it (also on vinyl) for 20.92 + shipping costs, but I don't trust cdbox.

a delirium like the album :). So much that someone will arrive and say that you didn’t talk about the album and that it’s not a review. A dark spiral from which more the Faust emerge than Dalek (oh I'm also enjoying Absence), meaning it seems more like an album from the kraut guys, still a must-have. (Do you have the original?)
