always much but much better than death metal :-)

16.5 euros spent on goods... At the autogrill you can find Mozart and Bach too (of course, the more commercial pieces) for that matter...

Hey, thanks for the "once again"!! I'm honored :-)

So, I've listened to it a couple of times. For now, a stretched-out four for excess. Compared to WOW, it doesn't hold up. It's just a nice album (very nice) with some powerful songs and others a bit cheesy. It lacks many things compared to WOW. It lacks the musical madness of Brian Wilson that is so often referenced in WOW. Completely missing are the instrumentals, some of which are absolutely fantastic and experimental, à la Brian Eno (12gMg), and this says a lot about the narrowing of horizons. A 3D album compared to a 4D album. A beautiful tropical garden compared to the Amazon rainforest. The morning memory of a dream (this album), compared to the dream (WOW). The only thing better than WOW is that it’s produced and sounds better. Absolutely NOT a 5, for now. I'll probably buy it by the end of this week. It doesn't compare, sorry...

Damn, I missed it... I couldn't always follow you, but it was truly a pleasure to read you because in your writing style I find a certain quality (almost) literary, like it used to be with other reviewers in the early days of Debaser... Welcome back.

Locon nonetheless in the name of our shared passion for Mark Linkous..., if these are the best tracks on the album in my opinion we’re not in a good place. I heard another one (Nevischio) where it seems like I can hear Nek (the singing style is very reminiscent of him..). Anyway, I admit that my judgment so far is superficial.

WOW let's just say I've consumed it. It's a hypertrophic album, full of great songs, hyper-citational, spontaneous, and highly sought after in its sound (that fake low-fi sound, with that psychoanalytic phone voice so similar to Anima Latina, which I adore). Now I'm a bit stuck when I decide to listen to it, I don't know why. Its vastness intimidates me. I've listened to a few tracks from this new one on YouTube. It didn't impress me. PS. By the way, one of the brothers I saw shamelessly plays the role of Steven Drozd from the days of The Soft Bulletin (replicating those percussive sounds with his mouth, like the intro of Feeling Yourself...). Not to mention he resembles him quite a bit if you think about it. Not to say that Verdena are notoriously fans of FL (and they even opened their concert).

I became passionate when I read "From the Big Bang to Black Holes." Since then, I've read countless books on the subject and realized that Hawking (who is not the greatest scientist in the world but, at best, for some, the greatest popularizer) is just one of those who spins a tale and gives the reader the impression of understanding when, in fact, they (the reader) understand nothing (worse than him is only Zichichi, who is rightly ridiculed by Crozza). Much better is his colleague on "black holes," Penrose. A review worthy of the author of the book, that is, mediocre (to be kind). But where the hell do you vote???!!?? I mean, I’ve been having a lot of vision problems lately, but…

You forgot this which perhaps (at least for me) is the most beautiful (and bittersweet) of all verses "putesse essere allero cu na parola sola ca me desse calore senza me fà' sunnà'"...
