The real merit of the band lies in giving music a psychological quality that makes it appreciable and noteworthy. Anger, melancholy, apathy, and regret alternate in a sound picture of the most suffered and introverted 'teenage angst'.

Gone is the baroque and dreamy intimacy of 'Automatic For The People': the imaginative and eclectic arrangements of that album have been completely abandoned, leaving behind a solid rock skeleton. A full-fledged makeover, and a very successful one at that.

No thrill, no surprise, this album glides away unnoticed, and its greatest utility might be as background music. A real shame, in any case, almost a stab to the heart.

Discover why Litfiba's Infinito fails to ignite and listen to the subtle moments that barely save this album.
"With all the controversies it has brought along, it remains for me one of the best albums by the Irish band." "Not a masterpiece, I repeat. In the case of U2, in my opinion, such a word is absolutely to be avoided."

"Dimmi il nome is pure assault rock, an epic and angry ride that accompanies an unflinching portrait of organized crime." "In short, a redemption after the half-misstep (in my opinion) of El Diablo. Litfiba had not yet succumbed to the allure of the market and could still create quality music."

Angel Dust is a masterpiece of dramatic tension, a kind of hallucinatory comedy in which man is ruthlessly alone in the face of his destiny. Only the group’s imagination and particularly Patton’s superb directing ability could create such an intricate and fascinating puzzle made of different mosaic pieces.

The album is, on the whole, well done, although excessively produced and played, and has no particular flaws except for the fact, for purists, of departing too much from the band’s past. ‘Pop’ is simply a good album. I say it bluntly, there’s no need to investigate too much on the meanings of the title or the intentions of the band; after all, in the world of music, no one (or almost no one) does anything for the love of art.

'It’s a dirty job but someone’s gotta do it!' 'Chuck Mosely is not Mike Patton, and you can tell. His voice is not as flexible and powerful, but he still manages not to fall short in a fun album.'

'Introduce Yourself' showcases Faith No More's original fusion of rap, funk, new wave, and metal before Mike Patton's arrival.

Pork Soda is a contemporary rock opera, a repugnant and malevolent portrait of the ills of modern society. Les Claypool’s distorting mask replaces Roger Waters’ depressed and paranoid seriousness.
