As far as I know, it means "depreciator" in relation to currency; but the slang meaning is someone who tears down situations, like "Man, what an awesome concert by Kyuss!!!!" and the other one "I thought they sucked, the barefoot guy with hair in his face stinks, the singer is a half-mexican piece of shit and the guitarist looks like Big Jim!" + or less this should be a debaser. Obviously, I don’t know American slang that well, let alone Kim Deal, so I might be completely wrong.

Q is unbeatable, even though it draws heavily (despite what the authors themselves might say) from Il Nome Della Rosa but especially from Yourcenar's alchemist, and that's undeniable. Manituana is very interesting; it talks about a period and characters that I personally knew very little about, or only in broad strokes. The charm of the books from the Bologna collective is precisely in shedding light on corners of both recent history and less illuminated areas. And most importantly, they stimulate personal research on the topic (which I did to some extent with Q and the story of the Anabaptists). However, I don't think Manituana is very well written; even though 54 is less fascinating, it's written better.

downloaded about a month ago but still on the waiting list. The idea is remarkable, just barely heard about it, but it attracts me more than the namesake (which I bought and resold within two months of its release) and mit gas. Then I just finished reading Manituana by Wu Ming, so I'm in the full Indian period!
The Stooges Funhouse

Thank you, happy. Honestly, reading it again, it sucks even for me, but it was the first time in my life that I wrote a couple of lines about music. And no kidding, funhouse devours the first one for breakfast and even smokes a joint!
Spacemen 3 Performance - Live at the Melkweg 06.02.88
Voto:
Well, this live (which I also got for a pittance when I was in Tokyo) made me understand why my friend Michele said that even the English people ran away from their concerts when he saw them in '88.
Led Zeppelin How The West Was Won - Disc 1-2-3
Voto:
The creative peak is documented on the BBC sessions, disc 2. No doubts about it. The ABSOLUTE first version of Stairway, still unburdened by frills and various nonsense. Along with At Leeds, it's one of the best rock live performances.
Takashi Miike Visitor Q
Voto:
I only have the original Full Metal Yakuza, and my Japanese isn’t that good. The new one about Django is coming out, and you can already find the trailer on YouTube. That fool Miike made the actors perform in Japlish, terrible! Does anyone have The Woman in the Dunes by Teshigahara? I highly recommend Pistol Opera by Seijun as well, very psychedelic.
Takashi Miike Visitor Q
Voto:
Well, I highly recommend the triple feature of Audition, Ichi, and Visitor Q to everyone.
Takashi Miike Visitor Q
Voto:
The film I like to show people, like with freaks, is a strong denunciation (ignored at home) of all the social diseases in Japan; the sex with the dead girl and the subsequent rigor mortis are simply genius! Toxic love is another brilliant film ("Hey, do we have to turn around and you eat the ice cream?")

I'm not rambling, I'm trying to understand why you refer the comment to yourself, given that you write that it "doesn't touch you"....
