 Every song will start with a little theme riff over which a gospel choir will layer, then there will be a nice crescendo of brass, percussion, and other various instruments.

 I think it’s very unlikely we’ll stay under 9 minutes per track.

The review sarcastically summarizes Kamasi Washington's album as formulaic and predictable, focusing on typical spiritual jazz elements like gospel choirs and sax solos. It highlights the album's long track lengths and lack of innovation. The tone conveys disappointment masked in irony. Dive into Kamasi Washington's Heaven And Earth and decide if this spiritual jazz journey moves you or feels all too familiar.

 Accepting to let Michael Gira and his "swans" enter your life means accepting to coexist with psychiatric drugs for life.

 They took some damn slabs from foundries and smashed them against our skulls like heroin-addicted grizzlies in withdrawal.

Swans' Filth is a harsh, nerve-shattering industrial album characterized by Michael Gira's intense and neurotic compositions. The music demands total immersion and challenges listeners with its brutal and relentless sound. This record is not for casual music fans but for those willing to embrace its primal force and psychological weight. Ultimately, Filth is a compelling call to confront harsh realities through raw sonic power. Listen to Swans' Filth and experience industrial music like never before—bold, brutal, and unforgettable.

 This album did nothing but legitimize mediocrity, blending a brainless mix of the Beatles, T-Rex, and a pseudo-theatrical epic so banal only Pink Floyd might emulate it.

 Plastic and empty sounds, riffs that draw a big whatever, melodies bloated with self-imposed goosebump-inducing rhetoric.

This review offers a harsh critique of David Bowie's iconic album, describing it as overrated and flawed despite its influence. It condemns the album's sound as empty and its themes as egotistical. However, the review admits the album's undeniable coolness though it fails to justify its faults. Ultimately, it holds the album responsible for spawning mediocre rock trends. Read this bold critique and decide for yourself how Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust shaped rock history.

 The new album by Colle der Fomento is a flawless rap album, textbook perfection, and indeed, no one can take away those two stars out of five.

 It seems to me precisely the pompous attitude that, mind you, I never like, that of “doing the real stuff” and presenting oneself as a rigid alternative to the new things, if not the innovations, of today.

Colle der Fomento's album Adversus delivers a textbook example of classic rap with solid instrumentals and strong lyrical content. However, the review highlights how the album feels stuck in its old-school approach, resisting contemporary changes in hip hop. While it serves as a counterpoint to modern trap music, it struggles to bring fresh hype or innovation. Ultimately, it thanks the album for spotlighting the shortcomings of today's rap scene despite its dated stance. Discover why Adversus divides opinion—listen now and decide if classic rap still holds the crown.

 Simply, I don’t know... is it like an album??

 It’s the testimony of a drunk who, instead of ending up off the road, hits the guardrails on both sides, swerves a lot, and once home, masks his Guinness-like hangover by telling it to the world as a perpetual mushroom trip.

The review offers a thoughtful and somewhat skeptical evaluation of Kanye West's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. It challenges common praise of the album as a hip hop masterpiece, highlighting its complex but sometimes overrated nature. The reviewer acknowledges impressive moments like "Runaway" and "Power" but ultimately sees the album as a chaotic and anarchic work that may not fully resonate as high art. The unique cover artwork and featured guests receive brief mention. Discover the layers behind Kanye West's iconic album—read the review and decide if it's truly a masterpiece or just overrated.

 Instead, it’s just the unpleasant recurrence of bronchopneumonia.

 It’s a pity because potentially Cosimo remains one of the best Italian artists of our time.

The review critiques Gue Pequeno's Sinatra album as a disappointing follow-up to his acclaimed Gentleman. Despite featuring notable artists and a few standout tracks like "Hotel" and "Modalità Aereo," much of the album fails to impress, likened unfavorably in tone to illness and clutter. The reviewer acknowledges Pequeno's talent but feels this project falls short. Discover why Gue Pequeno's Sinatra divides opinion—read the full review and decide for yourself!

 He reminds me of a certain Fedez rap, with that lifeguard style who at 25 discovers Bukowski and decides that well-done rap must be relaxed and prosaic.

 There will always be a streetwise person who understands, unlike you the 'cultured' one, that rap isn’t a Bonolis show.

Ernia's album '68' showcases well-crafted lyrics, but is hindered by an awkward, overly relaxed style reminiscent of Fedez. The addition of funk elements and attempts at cultured rap don't fully succeed and sometimes feel forced. Notably, guest rapper Tedua delivers a standout verse. Overall, the album struggles to blend streetwise energy with literary influences. Listen to Ernia's '68' and decide if cultured rap hits the mark or misses the beat.

 "What is this autotune, this emo-like text with all precise rhymes, these minor key chords to leverage on a super artificial and fake melancholy?"

 "The bouts of vomiting became more frequent and violent to the point I almost risked dying from dehydration."

The reviewer expresses strong disappointment with Dark Polo Gang's 'Trap Lovers', criticizing its overuse of autotune, artificial melancholy, and emo-style lyrics. The album is described as a polished but fake version aiming for mainstream appeal. Attempts to find the old Dark Polo Gang spirit fail, leading to a visceral negative reaction. Ultimately, the experience is framed as frustrating and unpleasant. Read this candid review and decide if Dark Polo Gang's 'Trap Lovers' is worth your listen!

 Emis Killa has been boasting for years about being the best rapper in Italy, even though he has never been.

 Emis, you’re a good nursery rhyme writer, in this album you’ve shown yourself to be a decent pop author, but the rap game is no longer for you.

Emis Killa’s 2018 album Supereroe marks an improvement over his past works with decent sentimental pop-rap and strong singles like "Rollercoaster." However, the album struggles to capture the essence of contemporary trap, reflecting a mismatch between Killa’s style and current youth culture. His collaborations and lyrical choices are often misaligned with today's music trends. Ultimately, while showing potential as a pop author, Killa fails to fully engage with the evolving rap scene. Discover how Emis Killa’s Supereroe balances pop-rap charm with a struggle to keep up with trap's evolution—listen and decide for yourself!

 "Sleep Sound is truly, and I mean truly, a masterpiece of good taste: moderate, just right, emotional, shy, decisive."

 "Loud Places makes you regurgitate the last six New Year’s Eve feasts at once. It’s cloying, mawkish, with an overbearing gospel sampling."

Jamie xx's In Colour offers moments of brilliance, especially with tracks like "Gosh" and "Sleep Sound." However, some collaborations with The xx members and certain tracks feel cloying or repetitive. The mix of techno, tech-house rhythms, and emotional layers shows Jamie xx's talent, albeit with uneven execution. Guest appearances by Young Thug and Popcaan provide a refreshing highlight. Discover the highs and lows of Jamie xx's In Colour—listen now and decide for yourself!
