The most incredible things I witnessed were the screeching and agonizing saxophone, reminiscent of the best no-wave contortion. Unordered noise, absolutely unmanageable in some passages and simultaneously structured and mastered in others.

"Starting from the first song 'Regolamento di condominio' harsh and shattering with a tormented text, sounds akin to the psycho-pop of Devo and the destructive sonic maze of the more gruesome Pankow (electrodark)." "The third and last track 'Frutti finti' is a puzzle of all these unique and hardly imitable influences."

"Lo zappatore is more a series of events without a plot or common thread, a jumble of feelings ground up and never forgotten like honor (as if I give a damn)." "A film to forget quickly."

"A film to forget quickly."
The review critically analyzes Mario Merola's film Lo Zappatore, describing it as a disorganized Neapolitan farce that lacks a coherent plot. It contrasts the film unfavorably with the dignified and unique cinematic representations of Naples by Totò and Eduardo de Filippo. The film is described as a jumble of shallow feelings and outdated themes. Ultimately, the review suggests Lo Zappatore is forgettable and not representative of quality Italian cinema. Read this candid review of Lo Zappatore and explore classic Neapolitan cinema beyond the film’s shortcomings.
"More than a record, Kollaps becomes a sort of expressionist painting, where the listener feels part of the brutal violence produced by the jackhammers." "Within an industrial press, where everything is generated and recycled with surgical speed, feelings become only superficial stages of existence."

Damaged is an excellent work, but songs like Can't Decide are fantastic because they foreshadowed the raw grunge of Bleach years ahead. How can it seem like a paradox to say that 'My War' is better than 'Damaged'?

How can it seem like a paradox to say that 'My War' is better than 'Damaged'?
The review questions the historically perceived impact of Black Flag's Damaged, suggesting it may be less influential than their later album My War. While praising Damaged's raw, brutal sound as ahead of its time, the author challenges its credited influence on bands like Nirvana or the Melvins. Instead, the review provocatively argues that My War might have been the more important album in shaping punk and grunge music. Explore the debate on Black Flag's true influence—listen to Damaged and My War and decide for yourself!
An exceptional album..... a gem for those who dare, or would dare to play an instrument, maybe a guiTAR. Carmen Sconsolata’s album is comparable to the kitsch garbage of LORELLA CUCCARINI (WHO CAUGHT HER), the star of the sappy Sanremo of a few years ago.

Listening to Dylan C. live means injecting liters of 'anguish of living,' as dear friend Baudelaire used to say, and particularly leads to doom-psychic territories that few have trodden. Earth played with mastery worthy of the best psychedelic sludger, with a slow and hard drum, sharp hypnotic guitar riffs, and the precious presence of the saxophone.
