Alfio Bardolla I Soldi Fanno La Felicità
Voto:
What you call escape routes I see almost always (and I don't think Mr. Alfio is an exception) as "shortcuts to screw over others." Of course, I'm not saying that if the father of the family mentioned above had the chance to screw someone over, he wouldn’t do it; not everyone is the same... but it annoys me to hear that someone like Bardolla has money because he has guts and determination, while the majority of people who spend 40 years working are considered weak. Making money by speculating on money is the least productive thing that can exist; I stand with a state that supports workers and not those who live off rents, interests, and real estate transactions.

Punisher may have all the money in the world, but he remains someone who exploits the flaws of capitalism to his advantage. Does that mean he has guts and determination? And what about a family man who works his ass off for 1000 euros a month to feed and educate his children? Doesn't he have guts and determination?

"The problem with the poor is their attitude towards money. It is their attitude that creates money problems, not the other way around." That sentence is enough for me to tell him to fuck off temporarily.

Stunning album, Wicked Gravity is one of the most beautiful pieces in the history of rock, truly too underrated and overlooked. Carroll
Adrian Belew Side One

Great guitarist playing with 2 fenomeni, however, the album seems "strange for strange's sake" to me, I don’t know, it doesn’t fully convince me compositionally.
Russian Circles Enter

certainly above average in its genre...after all, I'm from Chicago, one of the homes if not THE home of post-rock; however, I don't feel like giving it 5 stars, at times they sound like the instrumental version of Mastodon, while in the more reflective moments the classic taste of the Chicago school comes through.
Tim Burton Alice in Wonderland
Voto:
viewed with deception since I went to see something else, but at least not in 3D... a tacky Disney movie (the only one that has been worth watching from Disney in recent years, in my opinion, was "Ratatouille"), nauseating certain antics like the Mad Hatter's dance and a yawn-inducing moral that Alice gives to all the family-invited guests at the end... I agree with calling it "B-grade fantasy." If I want worthy examples of fantasy, I only need any animated film by Miyazaki, truly another planet.

A "Double Nickels on the Dime" by the Minutemen or any album by Fugazi or even just "Nonalignment Pact" by Pere Ubu sweep away almost the entire InsideOut catalog for me.

So, Splinter, you don't find artistic sense in the music of Pavement or Sonic Youth or Yo La Tengo or Minutemen (just to name the first ones that come to mind) since they don't do progressive?
