Johnny Cash - I See A Darkness.

Out of tune, drunk, filthy. Basically a bum. But perhaps precisely for this reason, an epic, poignant performer: in this case, from Bonnie Prince Billy, delivering an epic sermon as a daring man of the frontier. Apocalyptic, inspired, eucatastrophic.

Mark Free - I Wish That I Was There [RARE DEMO]

Spectacular demo track, with heart-stopping melodic openings: "When the lights go down and I'm all alone I wish that I was there with you." One of the masters of AOR.

Oceania - Mario Castelnuovo

"The flames turn to embers when the darkness is already deep. We gather the white ashes: we will scatter them where our comrades rest and the other children of these mountains. We descend into the silence of those who sense the Hour.
A brief rest, then we will take over from those who have watched over the corroded edges of our world for us."

Cannata - Images of Forever (1988)

Here, the legendary multi-instrumentalist Jeff Cannata, having distanced himself from the lethal hippie drift, brings everyone together with a well-blended synthesis of slick prog, antinomian pomp rock, thunderous AOR, and some touches of symphonic punk that never hurt. The use of the drum machine is brilliant. Buy or die!

Michael Cashmore - How God Moved At Twilight

How did the God of the Western Aryans move at twilight? Or perhaps, did He feel a stir contemplating His noble people?

Foreigner - 'I Want To Know What Love Is' [Official Music Video]

When the boss of Atlantic listened to her, he was moved deep in the secret chambers of his heart, and tears streamed down his face for minutes and minutes, blending with the rain that was devastating NYC. An almost perfect video: a pity about the outcome, which plays into the emotionally charged and justified globalism, abolishing the pathos of distance that should prevail between disparate races. We would also be humanly in favor of these beautiful reunions; politically, however, we are forced to explicitly state our unequivocal, relentless condemnation.

Ligabue - Buonanotte all'Italia (Official Video)

Ridiculous video, wonderful song: it accompanies, with its gentle pace and the climax of the verse, our young emigrants, precarious by ontological constitution and by government decree: who, for a plate of lentils, fly to Sydney or New York to work as dishwashers or gravediggers in Protestant cemeteries.

September 87 - Bad Dream Baby (Official Video)

An anthology AOR party. Written thirty years later: a diachronic mismatch worthy of the diner in Twin Peaks. Subtly nostalgic tones, sumptuous neo new wave synths, and charming "scifi" characters. As with all great masterpieces, the verse surpasses the refrain, which perhaps exaggerates with the high notes: but for good reason, to delight all the chic rockers and the tough guys with a tender heart.

bellissima scena di ROMANZO CRIMINALE

Still about the steel romanticism. Fleeing from the forces of the antifascist disorder, Freddo extends his hand to Andreino, on an exotic cove in Ostia, in a crescendo that is almost Brucknerian. Each time, the scene is observed with heartfelt amazement: the manly friendship, sealed by this masculine yet affectionate gesture, is hypostatized down to its tender sprouting.

"Un Mercoledì da Leoni", titoli di testa

"I particularly remember these three friends...". The opening titles of an immortal film: epic and intimate, set to the rhythms of the seasons of life. A "magnum opus" on male friendship: the "surfers" as modern knights, loyal, never subdued, and charmingly sexist. The waves are ridden with a disregard for the looming danger; the new man stands alone before the fury of the elements, awaiting the re-evaluation of all values. A Nietzschean film, deeply infused with love for man and for the cosmos; for romantic Nazis, personal yet universal: a film for everyone and for no one.

Bad English - «Tough Times Don't Last» (subtítulos / subtitulado en español)

1989. We lived that phase of unaware twilight, where history transforms into myth like light almost into delicate twilight, and the ordinariness of every prosaic act into an immemorial rite.
We refrain from asserting anything else, Gentlemen: here, one is introduced to the arcane realm of legend.

This Mortal Coil - Song To The Siren

A brilliant reinterpretation of a piece by the guru Tim Buckley: it cleanses it of all detrimental psychedelism. The greatest merit of his son Jeff, otherwise derivative, was his relationship with Fraser, who shines here. It was 1984, when anything was still possible.

Black Tape for a Blue Girl - Fin de siecle

We discovered them on the advice of a gigantic comrade of few words, rough, magnanimous with the enemy and unyielding with himself; tender, though, with the small and the weak. It was the '90s. We often observed him at work, with the devout respect one owes to the pure of heart, amidst honorable brawls and random readings of Pound and Farinacci.
We can never thank him enough. He is now in Valhalla, and we miss him when we look at the fixed stars in the firmament, vague and distant.
