Bonus. The land, the war, a private matter
How could I refrain from talking about one of the most exciting live performances in Italian music? Speaking of Csi, their discography includes two live albums of a certain level: the first is In quiete, usually the favorite among the two, taken from the Videomusic program where they performed pieces like Ko de mondo, covers of Marlene Kuntz and Franco Battiato, but especially many old songs by CCCP that are spectacularly rearranged. The second is indeed La terra, la guerra, una questione privata, recorded on an unrepeatable occasion: in the church of San Domenico in Alba, held on October 5, 1996, in memory of Beppe Fenoglio, writer and partisan. Campestre kicks things off with just Ginevra Di Marco, followed by Esco and Fuochi nella notte. A moment of collage of partisan songs is Guardali negli occhi, a piece that is completely successful. The climax is probably reached with the fitting Linea gotica and the 7-minute version of Cupe vampe, unquestionable highlights. Another important track is Memorie di una testa tagliata, whose duration is almost doubled and whose potential has finally fully emerged. An acoustic part features only piano, with 3 tracks: In viaggio, which has not changed much compared to the version on In quiete, Del mondo made more dreamy and ethereal, and Annarella, in its definitive and tear-jerking version. To conclude, the legendary Irata and a reprise of Guardali negli occhi provide an intense and progressive epilogue to what is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful live albums produced in our country.

Crisi di governo, Giorgia Meloni attacca Conte paragonandolo a Barbapapà
I want to understand. It's not like she mentioned the physiognomy of Hegel's spirit or the Decameron. First Butti with the two unicorns, now Giorgia with the Barbapapà. I have no words, it's both surreal and chilling.

1.Gothic Line
Twenty-five years ago, today. This album was born, disturbed and powerful, gritty and sacred. A rock album but also intimate, but above all an album where politics and spirituality merge, in an engaging manifesto of life and rebellion. I don’t think it’s blasphemy to place this album among the milestones of Italian music, alongside imposing records like La voce del padrone and Anima latina; in fact, it is even deserved. A journey between Europe and one's own conscience, which begins in the library of Sarajevo, now ravaged by flames, by the dark blazes that kill the wisdom of humanity. What follows is an inevitable disorientation, where man can no longer distinguish his unconscious from a parasite and where he lives curled up like an animal waiting to die. But there is a divine light, described by the great master Battiato, that can give us a moment of comfort, despite the daily crumbling of global chaos and the arrival of the apocalyptic blue dawn. And it is in Alba that the battle is being fought, confronting the enemies behind the Gothic Line. In certain cases, one must be the master of oneself and choose a side. Despite this, taking a side proves difficult: there is an attempt at revolt against the religion that has dominated the world for millennia, shedding blood as well, but the temptations are cast in a sickly light that turns even the basest riches into nightmares. Luckily, there is Tancredi, the spirit of an untamed horse who does not lead us where we already were, leaving us on Sunday, the day before death when we must dress in silk and purity. Thus ends the journey, despite every strenuous decision or opposing vow, I find myself embarrassed, surprised, hurt by an angry feeling of decline of which I do not know how to speak or ask questions.

4. Epic Ethical Ethnic Pathos
After the release of Canzoni preghiere danze, two fundamental events took place: the fall of the Berlin Wall and the CCCP touring Russia with Litfiba. From the latter event, a new band began to take shape, featuring Gianni Maroccolo on bass, Ringo De Palma on drums, Giorgio Canali on guitar, and Francesco Magnelli on keyboards. Arranged in a circle in a country house playing new songs, this is how EEEP came to exist. The album is ideally divided into four parts, each named with words from the title: the first part, Epic, starts wonderfully with Aghia Sophia, one of the best tracks in the collection, before moving to the Eastern-inspired Paxo de Jerusalem and the interlude Sofia. Ethical immediately changes the rules of the game, with a distorted bass dominating Narko'S, followed by a piano bar moment sung by the people's artist Fatur, before returning to the distorted bass. Next comes an unjustly lesser track in the CCCP discography, such as Campestre, and the funeral of communist ideals in Depressione caspica. Ethnic begins instead with the so-called cover Amandoti (introduced by an interlude called In occasione della festa), the galloping L'andazzo generale, and the intriguing Al Ayam. The third part concludes with Mozzill'o re and a reprise of Campestre. The last and fourth part, Pathos, opens with the colossal Maciste contro tutti, a true manifesto of CCCP thought, and finally collapses into the tear-jerking Annarella, a song that Ferretti dedicated to his father whom he never knew, and named it Annarella due to some health issues that Annarella had during the album's production. In short, this album certainly does not deserve the fourth place in the rankings, let alone the second among CCCP albums, but this time the scales wanted to favor a historic and important record.

The gem: Maciste Contro Tutti
(I wanted to choose Annarella as the gem, but I didn't want to inflate its significance further.)
