The album dives into reinterpretations of EBM and techno hard-core, creating dark, unsettling atmospheres with distorted vocals and analog-digital basslines. Despite few melodic exceptions, the record delivers a tense, science fiction-tinged sonic journey.

 "What is so brilliant and epochal about 'Abbey Road'? An album more famous for its cover than for the songs it contains."

 "If I have to listen to a Beatles album, I pull out 'Pepper' or 'Revolver'."

This review argues that The Beatles' Abbey Road is overrated and lacks the innovation present in other 1969 albums like those by King Crimson. It suggests the album is more notable for its iconic cover than the music itself, which is viewed as a summary of Beatles' earlier styles rather than a groundbreaking work. The author prefers albums like Sgt. Pepper and Revolver as more representative of the band's innovation. Overall, Abbey Road is seen as a polished but less substantial testament to the band's legacy. Explore the debate: is Abbey Road truly a Beatles masterpiece or just an overrated classic?

 Nazareth emerges with heads held high from an oblivion that lasted too long.

 A technological gem like the Fairlight was used in an unoriginal way and at its minimal potential.

 The expectations raised by the title and source of inspiration were betrayed by the concern to convey the idea with a great display of means, neglecting the emotional and subconscious approach.

Malleus' Paranorm Op. I uses the powerful Fairlight synthesizer to create dark, paranormal-inspired soundscapes but ultimately falls short artistically. The album's A side conjures atmospheric horror-like moods, though it feels overly engineered and lacking emotion. The B side's unrelated tracks dilute the concept further. Despite Enrico Ragni's talent and vision, the album underwhelms and disappoints longtime admirers. Discover the story behind Malleus' Paranorm Op. I and explore this unique blend of synth technology and paranormal inspiration.

 "Spirit" - the opening track - certainly the best track. An enticing drum machine, a rhythm around 100 bpm, a piano similar to a keyboard, with a dreamy and disillusioned voice...

 "Oltre-Passo," a desire to go beyond and break free from something that holds or perhaps oppresses.

Aidala's 1988 EP 'Oltre-Passo' presents a unique, original sound blending indie ballads with dreamy and cryptic autobiographical lyrics. Though a semi-amateur release on a small label, it features engaging instrumentation like clarinet solos and drum machines. The work conveys bittersweet hope and a desire to transcend limitations. Despite limited exposure, Aidala's craftsmanship and atmosphere stand out, marking this as a hidden gem from the Italian new wave era. Listen to Aidala’s evocative 'Oltre-Passo' EP and discover a rare Italian musical treasure from the late 80s.

 F.A.R. were certainly not interested in producing clean sounds, and the entire work had a lo-fi aura essentially suited to the sinister overtones of its titles and various recitations.

 "Soon the Rats Will Come Looking for Us" is a fluid collage of musical moments ranging between dark atmospheres and technological nursery rhymes.

F.A.R.'s 1987 album 'Presto i topi verranno a cercarci' stands as a landmark in Italian industrial music, combining experimental noise with dadaist and krautrock influences. The band's lo-fi aesthetic and dark, ironic atmosphere reflect their unique creative vision. Though niche in appeal, the album remains a vital testament to the early European industrial scene and F.A.R.'s innovative path before focusing on the MGZ project. Discover the raw energy and dark creativity of F.A.R.'s industrial sound—listen now and explore a key chapter in experimental music history.

 "A collage photograph... shows us the best and the worst of a group that between 1966 and 1968 marked a fundamental point in the history of rock."

 "The Floyd of 'Apples and oranges' were striving not to lose pace and to keep the public’s attention high."
