This során is truly my favorite of the dinosaurs, according to the timeless Bug. How to define it, noise pop-rock? It remains among my top 10 of all time, alongside Psychic by Butthole, Atomizer by Big Black, In Utero by Nirvana (who never had the audience they deserved - see 15-year-old "Kurt Bono" and 23-year-old "I listened to Nirvana when I was a kid" screw both of them)... The favorite Sludgefeast, a real anthem for these green and tailed things, great review!

What a bore Slash is... a slimy, disgusting, and talentless guy (playing the same riff (which is also somewhat of a joke) for 20 years) who has been annoying us since 1987. The most absurd thing is that he kept making his own stuff solo and maintained his style without caring at all about the musical eras that passed by. Hardcore, noise rock, post-punk, grunge, post-rock all went by him, and there he was, still doing the same hard rock nonsense, never influenced by anything, always with the same poses, always, always, always a disgrace... Slash: one of the most insignificant guitarists in the history of music.

In my opinion, during stressful times, people like Hetfield could have won every 1, 2, 3-star tournament existing in the world since he's a fucking block of marble. I'm fed up with their bad-guy poses imitated by every spineless metal kid out there. And I agree that they've never made a good album. They invented Thrash, but yesterday I flushed the toilet and strummed underneath; am I a genius or making shitty music (subtle irony)? Same goes for Metallica… a 0 would be the ideal score. Listening to Metallica is like watching a movie by the Vanzina brothers. They should just retire, those assholes…

Oops the Votes

A disc from a provincial vulgar rocker who supposedly renounces his ignorance (the thing he was best at: appetite for destruction) for a pathetic and dull double album. Axl in the role of introspective romantic philosopher, what a load of crap, only newborns believe it. Recommended for anyone who wants a nice overrated album to play when they're getting it on with a standard girlfriend in a typical city night. After Axl "sexist/homophobic/racist" Rose and company graced us with this important album, they even managed to do better: The Spaghetti Incident. After that album, I ate rice for 6 months :(
"Don't cry tonight, don't cry tonight
There's a heaven above you, baby
And I beg you, don't cry tonight"
Quasimodo, Goethe? No, it's Axl "soft heart" Rose. The best album from Guns? Chinese Democracy! It's the newest and seems with each listen as if it still hasn't been released, like it's a record from the future.
eheheheheheheeh

I grew up with this classy stuff, my heart aches when I put on the old tape and listen to "Roma Capoccia." No jokes aside, Venditti reminds me a lot of my childhood, I'm really attached to him; he was truly a great songwriter in the '70s, it’s a pity about the sad decline that followed. What makes me give it 5 stars instead of 3.5 or 4 is the combination of Tomas Milian and Venditti within the Italian crime film "La Banda Del Gobbo." Sora Rosa still shines :)

One of the worst albums I've ever listened to by one of the worst reviewers I've ever read. This album just puts me to sleep... my brother has a scratched version of Master of Puppets, and for about twenty seconds a track skips; unfortunately, after that, you really hear the record in all its crappiness. The saddest thing about Metallica is their ostentation of a caveman-like machismo and a meanness they’ve never truly had, coincidentally it turned out that several of them were gay: typical attitude. Metallica, that is to say, combining Misfits and Black Sabbath and making crap. You haven't even listened to Rock For Light by the Bad Brains, which demolishes this masturbatory and pointless work with sheer madness, compositional intelligence, and passion. You talk without actually listening to the albums. Tooo goodbye, you metalhead—it suits you.

When I pick up a guitar, it feels like I’m holding an instrument that has lost all genuine creative freshness. The combinations are depleted, songs played with classic Western instruments all sound identical, making a pop hit now means risking huge expenses due to plagiarism allegations! Millions of guitarists, few combinations, great composers and big ideas already revealed. Is music dying? Of course, the average MTV listener will never notice anything; they will continue to listen to this recycled pop probably until 2100, and everyone will forever be a pale, whitish version of the Beatles. BUT ENOUGH!!! How can people not realize the invalidity of music and the now ineffectiveness of some instruments: guitar among them. And I say this as a bored guitarist. In 2006, why do new bands still repeat the formula of AC/DC? They were great, they were genuine and innovative, but in the '70s!! For me, every musician should seek new codes to pass on the old fervor of love for music. This copy-paste of the structures of the great classics has really hit me hard... Fuck these clones, fuck the Darkness with their catchy tunes reminiscent of Queen, AC/DC, Led Zeppelin... fuck those hip-hop crap with the same beats from the '80s... fuck MTV for broadcasting the same bland broth to pacify and obscure the real history of Rock for 10 fucking years... fuck the music intellectuals who want to innovate with an engineering spirit devoid of visceral passion... fuck those same two chords that lead to 34353 previously listened-to songs... fuck it all, indiscriminately!
Personal rant

I find that the album is more about the fusion between two personalities that are so distantly and fundamentally different in age. Musically, Cobain isn't exactly at the peak of his form; sometimes, as is evident in a good number of noise groups, the noise is a shortcut due to a lack of sufficiently fresh and good ideas. It doesn't seem to me that he used a soundscape that goes beyond 2.5 stars; he could have done better. Burroughs is full of depth, shamanic and hallucinatory; however, the work as a whole is certainly not a masterpiece, 3 stars mixing Cobain with Burroughs.

I wanted to do this myself :)
