uhmm... now that I think about it, maybe my program might not interest a damn soul. if these are the premises, my chances of reaching the necessary quorum rise to infinity.

As an electoral program, I propose a campaign aimed at demonstrating that Punisher and Poletti are NOT the same person. The 5 serves as an association or party card. Goodnight.

For the joy of the people, I officially announce my candidacy as the "fake of Vic Sorriso."

I believe that Korn is a washed-up band by now. But I only say this because it seems to me that no one has said it yet.

Saw it this morning. There's only one word to describe this movie: exhilarating. Definitely a film that deserves reevaluation: violence, fierce criticism of institutions and American multinationals, b-movie irony, patchy science fiction, and priceless fake commercials. And what can I say about the abrupt ending with the word "robocop"?? A masterpiece.

As a review, it would fit well in a magazine like "Tv Sorrisi e Canzoni Professional."

As soon as I read Poletti's first comment (and the related vote), I nearly fell off my chair. Then I read the comments from Pippo Felice. All are understandable and shareable, except for that 2, of course. For me, El Topo remains a great example of metaphysical western, more transcendental and less human than other films like "La Sparatoria," which can also be attributed to the metaphysical genre. We find ourselves at the usual crossroads: as with all great works, positive and negative opinions coexist under the same roof. I consider it a film "to watch," if only for the strong visual personality that comes through and for the poetic nature of certain images, rather than for the message (which is unclear, overly cryptic, and sometimes cryptically poor). I admit that at times it hangs a bit in the air, but in this regard, I certainly prefer "La Montagna Sacra," which I find much more complete and significant. I don't like the review.

I return after having listened to both this and the unplugged. Being intentionally brief about this album, which I found rather awful (I completely agree with Sephirot, who describes them as the "Jonathan Davis band," a more than perfect label), I would like to focus on the unplugged. I was truly astounded by the almost total lack of passion displayed in this "acoustic" album. With songs of undeniable potential that could have been truly transformed into art, they could have produced a masterpiece of rare beauty (for example, by doing something very simple: slowing down the pace)… instead, the songs are (not seem, they are) clearly played too fast, at a frenzied pace, at times in an ugly and clumsy manner. With the choruses left intact (like in the medley featuring Robert Smith… the chorus of the Korn song is unbearable). Any fan-band or cover-band project aiming for the same goal (that is, creating an unplugged version of Korn's songs) would certainly have yielded more intelligent and interesting results. Really, the most shocking thing is the speed (at times even variable) with which the tracks are performed is astounding. A missed opportunity thrown down the drain.

clearly I haven't listened to this album yet (but I'm downloading it right now), and frankly I hope I won't have to confirm my comment. Just saying, to be honest.

so this is a transitional album too? if we dig up the old reviews of the album "the kid with the bunnies," it was also said to be a transitional album. let’s say instead that with the last 4 albums they’ve really dropped some monstrous duds here and there. I really don’t think that in 10 years anyone will remember even one song from untouchables or see you on the other side, whereas the self-titled debut or follow the leader (which also shows off a terrible compositional diarrhea) are still remembered. every time a new record comes out, I download it, listen to it once, and then toss it aside. there’s no other way to do it. and I grew up when they played (and still play) "blind," for fuck’s sake. but now they are really "washed up." as far as I’m concerned, I’m convinced that with Issues they created the album of their career, the absolute best. the summa of all their style. something that is unreachable for themselves. but 4 "transitional" albums, come on, are we really going to fool ourselves?
