 All like that. And for those six tracks, we were on the couch in front of the stereo without batting an eyelid, captured by an obsessive mantra we didn’t understand, didn’t like at all, but that we couldn’t neither comment on nor turn off.

 Every fire I light propels me towards the sky. A sense of belonging.

The review reflects a personal, nostalgic connection to Faust'O's 'Love Story,' emphasizing its mantra-like, repetitive style that is both captivating and challenging. Though difficult to like, the album embodies raw adolescent emotions and a sense of belonging. The reviewer experienced the album as a single transformative listen, relating it to rites of passage and underground music culture. Dive into Faust'O's 'Love Story' and experience the haunting mantra that defined a generation's secret soundtrack.

 "Not only did you have it in mind, Bennato, but you had also already done it."

 "I wonder why you don’t go searching, in the attic, for that guitar, that harmonica, and that tambourine and try to play them again, as you did then, with the same street Dylan spirit."

The review critically examines Edoardo Bennato's 2005 album inspired by the Pied Piper story, highlighting that it is largely a reworked version of a less successful 1983 release. Despite polishing and adding new tracks featuring famous collaborators, the album is perceived as a recycled effort rather than a fresh concept. The reviewer laments Bennato's career decline and urges a return to the genuine, raw style of his earlier years. The overall sentiment is disappointment mixed with respect for Bennato's past work. Explore Bennato’s Pied Piper album saga and decide if it's a timeless classic or a recycled past.

 And when at the end of the anthem-piece he shouts with all the breath in his lungs 'GENNAIO! GENNAIO! GENNAIOOOO!' maybe you don’t know why, you don’t understand it, but you scream with him.

 He sang from the gut, with his throat, with the looming heart attack, without knowing how but with guts to have.

Diaframma's 1989 album 'Gennaio' captures a powerful transition as Fiumani moves from guitarist to raw, gut-driven vocalist. The album blends fierce punk riffs with new wave elements and a liberating, passionate vocal delivery. The track 'Gennaio' stands out with an anthemic shout that embodies personal and musical freedom. This record marks a unique and unforgettable moment in Italian underground music. Listen to 'Gennaio' and experience the raw passion of Diaframma's punk breakthrough!
