 "'Misantropo A Senso Unico'... is like a chicken coop ladder: short (less than 30 minutes) and full of sh*t."

 "This work seems to me a REHASHED AND REPETITIVE use of the usual 'die jerk', 'croak', 'f*ck you piece of trash'."

This review presents a harsh personal take on Cripple Bastards' grindcore album 'Misantropo A Senso Unico.' The reviewer finds the album too extreme and repetitive, disliking most tracks except one. The lyrics and provocative themes contribute to a sense of pessimism and disdain. Fans of hardcore punk might appreciate it, but others are advised to avoid it. Discover the extreme grindcore world of Cripple Bastards and decide if 'Misantropo A Senso Unico' is for you!

 This album presents us with portraits of various characters, famous and not, real or invented, funny or sad, and there’s also a self-portrait in the various songs.

 Well, in my opinion, it’s one of Baccini’s best works, who until 'Nostra Signora Degli Autogrill' will be able to produce consistently high-quality work, also thanks to the charm that has always accompanied him.

The review praises 'Nomi e Cognomi' as one of Francesco Baccini's best albums, highlighting its unique character portraits and blend of humor and seriousness. The author appreciates the musical references and Baccini's lyrical creativity. The album features homages to well-known figures and invents vivid characters, supported by thoughtful melodies. The overall quality and charm of Baccini's work shine through this 1992 release. Explore Francesco Baccini's 'Nomi e Cognomi' and experience an unforgettable journey through quirky characters and heartfelt tributes.

 Sometimes letting success get to your head is harmful, really harmful, actually extremely harmful.

 Italy is reduced this way today also because of records like this. What a shame.

The review harshly criticizes Articolo 31’s album Italiano Medio for straying from their original style and quality. J Ax’s vocal attempts are deemed weak and unconvincing, while the album’s pop rock direction feels forced and superficial. Many tracks are described as annoying or forgettable, marking a disappointing decline from their earlier work. The reviewer laments the group’s transformation into a commercial phenomenon lacking respect for longtime fans. Read the full review and decide if Italiano Medio is worth your listen or to skip this controversial release.

 An album halfway, in terms of quality. Unbearable pieces, nice pieces, and excellent pieces alternate in this work.

 It's with 'L’Inconscio', the final track of the album, that in my opinion, Sottotono have produced the masterpiece of the album.

This review examines Sottotono's second album 'Sotto effetto stono' released in 1996, noting its mixed quality with some excellent, decent, and forgettable tracks. The reviewer highlights collaborations, nostalgic value, and contrasts it with previous and subsequent works. Despite flaws, the album has memorable moments and contributes to Italian hip-hop history. Overall, it is regarded as an average album with standout elements. Discover Sottotono’s unique blend in 'Sotto effetto stono' and explore the highlights of 90s Italian hip-hop.

 "Suzanne Vega’s style is always hers."

Highlights include the iconic track 'In Liverpool' and experiments with metallic, distorted tones. The album stands as a highly recommended gem in female folk music. Discover the dark beauty of Suzanne Vega’s 99.9F°—listen now and experience a folk masterpiece like no other.

 'Alone Alieno' represents for me what Federico Zampaglione should have remained until today: someone capable of experimenting with various types of sounds.

 Take a look, and I say this even to those who do not love the group in question, because they might also find a little masterpiece of genius.

 Incantesimi Notturni is proof she still had the capacity to make great albums.

 Probably the last truly valid album by Miss Rettore, representing 'the other side' of the queen of the early '80s.

This review praises Donatella Rettore's 1994 album Incantesimi Notturni as a quality work demonstrating her continuing creative capacity. The reviewer highlights standout tracks like 'Bianco' and 'Locura' for their emotional impact and notes the album as a last major noteworthy effort from Rettore. Some weaker songs are acknowledged but do not detract from the album's overall value.
