 'My Iron Lung' is only a disappointing musical search that Radiohead had the chance to experiment with before creating masterpieces.

 Thom Yorke’s voice here is really awful, but this issue of singers’ changing voices is an old problem, as old as the world.

 Irritating songs, messy lyrics, self-plagiarized music: there’s all the worst of Ligabue, and maybe even more.

 Putting effort into two songs and then offering 12 is quite a rip-off. And in this, Ligabue is a master.

While two or three songs show some merit, most tracks fail to engage.

The reviewer suggests Ligabue’s recent works are off the mark compared to his past successes. Discover why 'Fuori come va?' divides Ligabue fans—listen and decide if it's worth your time.
