Blink 182 Buddha
Voto:
I want to raise the average and to encourage you, I give a "5". But what does the nickname have to do with the Blink (a group that is really below average)?
Scorpions Blackout
Voto:
The Scorpions are always featured in the rankings of the worst album covers of all time. This one is passable. Their hard rock? Very German, very flashy. But they were good.
Jim O'Rourke Insignificance
Voto:
And what about the cover of "eureka"? O'Rourke seems a bit overrated to me, too much of an intellectual type.
Locanda delle fate Forse le lucciole non si amano più
Voto:
it was the 70s...the bronze ballet...the other side of the coin...who knows how many other bands with strange names. reading the (nice) review, I thought: "hey-hey, faster than light!" curious, yes, but only up to a point! (me, I mean, not the review).
Bonnie "Prince" Billy The Letting Go
Voto:
a BPB cover band? You’ll be in high demand at the various beer festivals infesting the pre-Alpine valleys! Good luck. (I don’t play any instruments, at most I can whistle).
Belinda Carlisle Live Your Life Be Free
Voto:
The review deserves a nice "1" because of the uppercase letters, even though it's nicely concise, just how I like it. I give the artist a "4" just for having played in the Germs (!), even if it was for a couple of weeks.
Songs: Ohia The Lioness
Voto:
I need to buy the CD or the short story that describes it (maybe there are other chapters, maybe someone ends up getting married)? It's not the review style I love, but I’ll give it the highest rating to avoid ruining the average (not just for that, obviously). I tend to avoid Molina; I already have a decent number of records steeped in dark, desperate intimacy. Maybe, after reading the other chapters...
Led Zeppelin Stairway To Heaven
Voto:
I thought the times of ranking the best solos, the most precise bassist, the most energetic drummer, etc., were long gone. Hyper-technical for hyper-technicians. Is it important that the piece starts from the left stereo channel? And what if it’s listened to from a mono radio?
Ac/Dc Fly On The Wall
Voto:
it still deserves a good ranking in the list of the ugliest covers of all time.
The Smiths Louder Than Bombs
Voto:
And why is a collection unavoidable? Where's some girls are bigger than others? And the boy with the thorn in his side? Old Morrissey (and old me)!
