 Planetarium is a work that must be understood in its entirety, where individual episodes probably make no sense if considered separately.

Planetarium showcases Sufjan Stevens' ambitious collaboration with Nico Muhly, Bryce Dessner, and James McAlister. The album blends neo-classical and avant-garde styles to evoke the solar system through a unified, dramatic work. Though initially seeming pretentious, it proves accessible on repeated listens. Its cohesion underscores a conceptual narrative rather than scientific precision. Dive into Planetarium's celestial soundscape and experience Sufjan Stevens' ambitious musical universe.

 Pirata... became first an object of cult and then soon a rightly forgotten film.

 The film leaves room for many doubts that go beyond the work itself and concern different forms and currents of thought believed to be revolutionary but that instead paved the way for what was then presented... as the end of all ideals.

Paolo Ciaffi Ricagno's 1984 film Pirata is a unique but flawed cult sci-fi work combining dystopian and punk influences. While visually and thematically ambitious, it is often seen as forgettable and low quality. The film critiques both Western media culture and Soviet authoritarianism with a mix of grotesque and surreal imagery. Despite its shortcomings, the review suggests the film's content is worth examining for its cultural and ideological complexities. Discover the provocative world of Pirata—watch this cult sci-fi classic and explore its dark punk dystopia.

 If it makes you exclaim, 'Mecojoni!', then we are talking about a great movie; on the contrary, if the reaction is, 'E sticazzi?', then well, it's better to move on.

 Mark Gregory... objectively has zero charisma and zero appeal for a movie where perhaps a protagonist capable of rising to the occasion would have been enough to significantly raise the qualitative level.

Escape from the Bronx (1983) is a post-apocalyptic cult film directed by Enzo G. Castellari. While it excels in action sequences, setting, and soundtrack, the lead actor lacks charisma, which detracts from the film's overall impact. The movie contains strong social criticism about urban decay and institutional ghettoization, but is somewhat let down by recycled ideas. Despite its flaws, it holds value for fans of 80s Italian action cinema. Discover the cult classic Escape from the Bronx and explore its thrilling action and gritty urban themes!

 The album... aims to be at the same time a manifestation of dissent against a capitalist and fascist drift of the political establishment and a call to a new opposition movement.

 Music - like any form of art - concretely represents the ideological content of significant segments of the society we live in.

Gnod’s 2017 album confronts the rise of authoritarianism and capitalist excess through a fusion of post-punk fury and experimental noise. Rooted in UK socio-political turmoil post-Brexit, the album channels raw dissent without nihilism. It stands as both musical statement and ideological manifesto urging opposition. The review highlights the band’s evolution and sharp conceptual focus. Musically and thematically, the album resonates strongly in a turbulent era. Explore Gnod’s fierce and uncompromising political punk statement – listen now and join the dissent.
