Onirico

 M83 was on the brink of commercial selling out. And as this album demonstrates, they have fully fallen into that abyss.

 "For The Kids" stands out, an elegant and stellar track where Sundfor's sinuous voice flows clearly over a keyboard carpet until the piece spirals into a metaphysical sax solo.

The review criticizes M83's Junk for its clear shift toward commercial pop, abandoning shoegaze influences. While some tracks show quality and craft, innovation is lacking. The song "For The Kids," featuring Susanne Sundfor, is praised as a standout with a romantic atmosphere. Explore M83's Junk to discover its blend of pop and dream elements, and judge for yourself how their sound has evolved.

 This album is the best Buckethead my eardrums have ever heard resonating inside my skull.

 His melodic guitar solutions are among the most fascinating I have ever heard.

Buckethead’s Pike 65 stands out as a rare, nearly flawless album in his vast and prolific discography. Dedicated to his late mother, it showcases his unparalleled guitar virtuosity across diverse genres while maintaining emotional cohesion. Unlike many of his scattered works, this album flows as a single, 28-minute immersive piece combining technical brilliance with touching melodies. It is a testament to pain transformed into art and highlights Buckethead’s unique place among guitar legends. Listen to Buckethead’s Pike 65 for a powerful blend of emotion and technical genius in one unforgettable tribute album.

 The most captivating aspect of the entire story is the ingenuity of the protagonist who, imprisoned in the dungeons of the Château d’If, escapes and forges a new identity.

 At the moment when the sobbing of the enemy clears the fog of hate, Monte Cristo realizes that not even revenge can restore his lost life.

Alexandre Dumas' The Count of Monte Cristo is a masterful blend of adventure and psychological depth. It follows Edmond Dantès' cunning escape from imprisonment and his calculated revenge on those who wronged him. The novel also explores deep emotional struggles, societal critique, and ultimately redemption. With a complex, interwoven plot and rich character analysis, the story remains a timeless classic. Dive into the thrilling world of The Count of Monte Cristo and experience a timeless tale of revenge and redemption!

 True identity does not exist because, behind the mask of the social one, there is absolutely nothing.

 Life becomes a farce in which everyone plays their part, linked to others by inauthentic relationships.

Pirandello’s Il Fu Mattia Pascal explores the collapse of personality under societal pressure, where identity is fractured and social roles confine true self-expression. The protagonist’s journey highlights the impossibility of an authentic self amidst imposed masks. The novel critiques bourgeois society, work alienation, and defends multiplicity of truths. Liberation is found through art, imagination, or madness, emphasizing the complexity and fluidity of identity. Its themes remain relevant in today's globalized, homogenized world. Discover the profound world of Pirandello’s Il Fu Mattia Pascal—read this timeless classic about identity, society, and freedom.

 One of the best episodes of the album.

 My fear is that this album is the beginning of a commercialization process, in other words, the beginning of the end.

The review initially found M83's 'Hurry Up, We're Dreaming' somewhat indifferent due to its shift from pure dream pop to a more pop-rock sound. Over multiple listens, the vocals, influenced by Peter Gabriel, became more appreciated. The album combines dreamy synths, pop hooks, and shoegaze textures, highlighted in tracks like 'Midnight City' and 'New Map.' However, the reviewer expresses concern about a possible move towards commercialization. Explore M83's 'Hurry Up, We're Dreaming' and dive into its dreamy synth worlds and pop-rock fusion today!
