Featuring the powerful drumming of Kenneth Kapstad and tracks from "Little Lucid Moments," the show fused new material with classic hits in an immersive sonic journey. The Milan audience, usually reserved, was swept into the band’s explosive soundscape. This live event left a lasting impression, epitomizing pure, unadulterated rock ’n’ roll. Dive into the raw power of Motorpsycho’s 2008 Milan live show—listen now and feel the sonic apocalypse!

 "Hip hop has never been just and simply a musical genre; it is a philosophy that must be embraced and lived with consciousness and respect."

 Rapadopa "burst onto the scene like a summer hurricane" and remains "the authentic Manifesto" of Italian homegrown hip hop.

DJ Gruff's 1993 album Rapadopa is hailed as a defining work in Italian hip hop, blending deep philosophy with exceptional musical craftsmanship.

 "'When The Sun’s Gone Down' is a true folk-punk-country gem, which perfectly outlines one of the (best) paths traditional American music can take to renew itself while remaining faithful to its own tradition."

 "In 'I Ain’t Proud,' warm lines drawn by a very soft slide alternate with the darkened melodies of Langhorne Slim’s voice, here more subdued, yet always lopsided and sharp."

Langhorne Slim’s album When the Sun's Gone Down expertly fuses folk, punk, and country elements. The record balances poignant ballads with energetic tracks. It honors American musical traditions while exploring innovative, dynamic sounds. The collaboration with his rhythm section adds depth, making the album a standout in contemporary Americana. The reviewer highlights its emotional intensity and spirited genre-crossing. Listen to Langhorne Slim’s When the Sun's Gone Down and experience a fresh take on American folk-punk tradition today!

 The taste in my mind is one of the good ones... the kind left in your mouth by a good barrel-aged wine or an excellently aged rum.

 It really seemed like one of those crazy mixes that were born in Bavaria or between Bremen and Hamburg in the early seventies.

The review captures a unique live show by Jason Molina and Bachi Da Pietra in Verona, blending krautrock-inspired experimental sounds with soulful melodies. Despite technical difficulties with equipment, the emotional impact and fusion of styles left a lasting positive impression. The concert's atmosphere is described as intimate and hypnotic, with the continuous flow of songs merging into a single compelling experience. The fusion of Latin and Anglo-Saxon influences creates a distinct and memorable performance. Discover the hypnotic fusion of Jason Molina & Bachi Da Pietra—listen to their unforgettable 2008 live performance now!

 The debut of the Clash simply pales in comparison to 'American Revolution,' so much so that a good half of the Strummer and Jones record is locked in the street-punk of the initial 'Lower East Side.'

 'I Want To Kill You' in just over four minutes blows away without regrets 'The Call Up,' 'Police On My Back,' and 'Bank Robber' by the Clash.

David Peel & the Lower East Side's album, The American Revolution, is heralded as a raw, street-level punk manifesto and a defining voice of the American hippie counterculture. Released in 1970, it blends pacifist and anti-prohibition messages with gritty no-fi punk rock. The album draws comparisons with the early work of The Clash but is praised for its originality and energy. Peel’s work earned support from John Lennon and Yoko Ono, cementing its cultural significance. The review highlights the album's impact and enduring rebellious spirit. Discover the raw power of David Peel's The American Revolution — listen now and dive into punk's underground origins!

 "13 Blues For Thirteen Moons is truly a work of sublime human desolation, perfectly marking the difficult moment we are living in."

 "The 16-minute composition... seems to want to take the greatest 'Rock Operas'... and claustrophobize, tribalize them into an ancestral lament."

This review praises A Silver Mt. Zion's album '13 Blues For Thirteen Moons' as a deeply emotional and apocalyptic work. Combining unsettling sounds, tribal lamentations, and intense instrumental tension, the album channels a cathartic journey through darkness and despair. It draws comparisons to classic rock operas while delivering a modern, desolate masterpiece.

 "Copper Sunset is truly blind fury, which becomes spasms of convulsion in 'The Greencap.'"

 "The final seven minutes of 'Put That In Your Pipe And Smoke It' feature a prog-core as devastating as a summer hurricane."

Aardvark's only self-titled album is an impressive fusion of 70s progressive and hard rock with psychedelic twists. The band's unique lineup without guitar is effectively compensated by vibrant keyboards and powerful bass.

 "Simply monstrous."

 The soundtrack is entrusted to the Electric Flag, a group born from the intentions of guitarist Mike Bloomfield... blending all the music of the American tradition with a new psychedelic dress.

 It is also often indicated as the first 'rock' album (or one of the very first) to have used the Moog.

This review highlights The Electric Flag's 1967 soundtrack for Roger Corman's film The Trip, emphasizing its mix of blues, psychedelic rock, and innovative use of the Moog synthesizer.

 Writing On The Wall are bearers of a gloomy hard-prog-psych-blues...

 'Aries' is a long blues suite that spills into jazz territories, taking Traffic and sending them directly before the Devil.

Writing On The Wall's sole 1969 album 'The Power of the Picts' is a dark, theatrical blend of prog, psychedelic, and blues music. Despite modest success, the Scottish band created a haunting, intense record full of foggy atmospheres and complex musical explorations. With standout tracks like 'Aries' and 'Bogeyman,' this album captures the darker turn of late '60s rock. The band's unique fusion and theatrical delivery make this overlooked gem a must-listen for prog and psychedelic enthusiasts. Discover the haunting depths of Writing On The Wall and experience one of prog rock's darkest gems today!
