it depends on which ring dear eclipse...I assure you that the first rimg (the Japanese one) I saw under similar conditions made me shit my pants for a good 20 minutes. To me, summer of '68 heard now has a different effect, but in my adolescence, it was my favorite floyd song, it’s true that it sounds a bit tekkaman anti. Anyway, julia dream is better, no doubt about it.

Downloaded it now, I'll burn it and roam around Tokyo, let's see what effect it has...

For me, the Smashing Pumpkins I adored are Siamese Dream, and don’t tell me that Cure is worse than Mellon Collie because I won’t greet you anymore, eh! Different style, different caliber, the Smashing of Siamese are more pissed off, but in the sweet moments they're sweeter and less sappy than Collie... but when Collie came out, I was already twenty and I owe my adolescence to the other. Anyway, it has always been a great album, there’s no doubt about that, but I think it's summarizable in a CD... I stopped listening to them the same year after the concert in Milan where a stupid teenager, while the Pumpkins were making me enjoy Mayonnaise, turned around surprised and asked, "What is this stuff?" I insulted her for ten minutes. Bye!

According to me, after Syd, it's only saucerful where there are three pieces alone that make up the album... anyway, I also think Wright is a bit of a joker, but he wrote perhaps my favorite Floyd song, Julia Dream... and that's no small feat!

Zuckina, I've decided, like Kosmo, not to give votes to the reviews anymore, because we’re not here to get grades like in school and brag about a 5 or get depressed over a 2. We're here to talk about music. Set the Controls, in my opinion, can't be pretentious because it's almost minimalist in its simplicity. Echoes or something from Atom Heart Mother can definitely be pretentious because they are structurally elaborate and orchestral (excluding Echoes). Set the Controls is just a bass line if you look closely, and I don't think Syd would have ever written it—too much Waters. Bye.

So, Zuckina, I think I’ve heard the album once with immense disdain... I have a priori hatred for necrological operations like this, operations done just for money. This is not an album for fans, as you say, but for necrophiles, which is quite different. And I'm telling you this as someone who has all the Queen vinyls and was a die-hard fan until the age of 18. How to commercialize the death and pain of a person.

"Of the period between Barrett's departure and the release of The Dark Side Of The Moon, this is probably the most representative track, as well as the best in terms of sounds, lyrics, and interpretation"... well, I don't quite agree with you here, I think Set the Controls is the best of the post-Barrett era (perhaps because he still felt his closeness), keeping in mind that Echoes is wonderful, like One of These Days, the rest irritates me a bit, that is to say, how to ruin an otherwise wonderful album. Bye.

So I'm jumping in on a genre I left behind in '88 (I was 12 and was listening to Run DMC, De La Soul, and others)... two years ago, this girl I met put on a CD in her car while we were smoking that I had seen reviewed very well... and I had to admit I was blown away! Definitely one of the strangest things I had ever heard... hard to define it as hip hop, there was a bit of everything. After that, I also listened to EL-P's album, and I have to say it wasn't bad either... who can record them for me when I go back to Italy?

Dude, I don’t really agree; maybe it’s because I’m discovering gems of unheard and unknown beauty only from the years '65-'70. In other words, I grew up musically in the '90s, so I don’t deny anything, but I admit that the average quality, even from unknown bands of that five-year period, is packed full of ideas and insights that paved the way for much of the music we hear today. This doesn’t mean that after hearing the old stuff there’s no space for the new, but for me, having a solid musical foundation means getting tired of too many derivative bands. And understand me, by derivative I don’t mean those who play well but sound old; then I'd only have to listen to stuff from 35 years ago. I'm talking about those who bring little to their sources, meaning a collage without soul, rather than a new reinterpretation of an old sound. The most striking example is Kyuss; their musical influences are obvious, but damn, they have a soul and a sound that’s personally reworked. It’s also true that within those five years I mentioned, there was a lot of crap... try downloading if you can find it, New Hobbit - Back to Middle Earth... you’ll be pissing yourself laughing, or another unthinkable (but interesting anyway) one, The Deep - Psychedelic Mood (the auditory result of a night-long acid experiment in '66). Bye.

I agree with Zion... check the recs on the list and at most redo the terrible ones. I would say that in the duets, this guy's garage blues has nothing on the Black Keys. This is just my personal opinion, of course.
