I fully endorse what was written by "MA PROPRIO PROPRIO", both in response to Mandragola and to Floydman.

And finally the house even!!! Cale who was obedient in school??!! I’m sorry Marco, but this is definitely THE WORST REVIEW I HAVE EVER READ IN MY LIFE!!!!! I feel sooooooo bad!!!!!!!!!

And then: Is it a hoax that Warhol was a producer?? Are you kidding?! He was a producer for real!!! Not to mention: "The black angel's death song" is an extremely long noise music experiment typical of the creative flair of Andy Warhol's Factory; "Europen song" is a delightful and touching piece dedicated to the legendary and revolutionary figure of Delmore Schwarz, friend and mentor of Lou Reed during his college days;

Marco Poletti, no offense, but check your temperature, my boy!!! I've never read such nonsense as in this review!!! Hard-rock??!! Deep Purple??!! Mr. Nico?????????!!!!!!!! Nico was a woman (and a damn hot one too!!!)

Rock, or better yet, hard rock, passed through here... Andy Warhol (also appears as a producer, but that’s nonsense... the house... Lou Reed is the undisputed leader, John Cale obediently follows... "The black angel's death song" is a lengthy musical noise experiment typical of the creative flair of Andy Warhol's Factory; "Europen song" is a delightful and moving piece dedicated to the mythical and revolutionary figure of Delmore Schwarz, friend and mentor to Lou Reed during his university days... to completely overturn rock and create a new genre, hard rock. And Deep Purple, in 1970, with "In rock," didn't actually invent anything: they took the hard rock of the Velvets, overloaded it with notes and screams, turned it into a genre of great popular impact, and, with great professionalism, mirrored the downside and the backs of the Velvet Underground... Mr. Nico (???????!!!!!!)

Oh my goddddddddd!!!!!!!

"...my conservatism only relates to a certain type of music (namely, some industrial sounds)...": so you appreciate all avant-garde rock that isn't "industrial" (Beefheart, Red Crayola, Velvet Underground, Can, Sonic Youth, Faust, Pere Ubu, Royal Trux). Or are you not fond of all the cacophonic and noisy rock? One more thing: I would also add Jourgensen and Thirwell to the list of Reznor's inspirations. Do you agree?

An excellent review as always, enjoyable and detailed. However, there is one thing I didn't understand: "...nostalgic for a time that was (Clash, Sex Pistols, and a few relics of Scarafaggi)..." Clash and Pistols in the early 90s??!! Perhaps I misunderstood...

I was there too at that party, Punny: didn’t you see me? I was sitting on a little couch with my well-groomed friends; the one sitting next to me was Don Budget Bozzo, yes, that’s right, Berlusconi’s priest; I asked him to thank Silvio for the transfer of Bobone halfway through the season: without that move, my poor Diavolo would have been relegated for the third time... Anyway, it was a nice place...

I understand, Joan... Reznor used "dripping" during the arrangement (for embellishment, for ornamentation), while the structure of the songs (the architecture, the supporting beams) was solid, rational, rigorous (a bit like in the paintings of Piero della Francesca ;-D). Now the pieces fit together...
