In this globalized world where everything resembles something else, there can still be pleasant surprises. Indie that could have come out of England.

The album is formally beautiful, impeccable, with deep bass entering on hi-hats, but there isn’t a single song that makes me want to dig into the pile of CDs and play it right away. Respect, but nothing more than that.

A truly short and perfect rock album, with words that stay in your head. A masterpiece and I don’t want to add anything else. Perfection shouldn’t be commented on. It just is.

The idea is not new. What’s new is how they bring movement to a static act. A nice concert, in the end more good moments than bad ones, even though it’s not the ultimate.

He does it all by himself with preset sounds from the sequencer, static, serial. He will become the English Eminem, but this stuff doesn’t interest us even for sociological study purposes.

A non-trivial ensemble of instruments and sounds, for this genre called nu-asian cool. A London DJ and a musician from Bombay have put together a masterpiece.

It’s a bad record, there’s no denying it, full of so many typical Garbage trademarks such as peculiar sampling, numerous useless percussion noises, melodic pieces, and then the big guitar comes in. Billy Corgan’s theory is confirmed: after the third album, a band has little to add.

At the beginning of this year, Zac Foley, the keyboardist, passed away... If this collection has any merit, it is the merit of memory, reminding us how fun 1991 was(!).

A really nice album with an ancient yet different flavor, that subtle thread of widespread melancholy that paradoxically keeps you company. You listened to it imagining rainy Irish landscapes or the cliffs of Normandy. That beautiful and healthy solitude that every man should be able to enjoy from time to time.

This record does not satisfy us. It is more difficult, convoluted, far from the pop perfection of almost all of Donelly’s productions. "The Shadow," on the other hand, seems like a Portishead song, starting with the ghostly drums...

It was the third time I’d seen them... and it was the best. Originality is not their strongest suit, but I liked them.

This 'Let it Come Down' leaves me cold, it is not as beautiful as the first three must-have albums and feels like something we’ve already heard. Spiritualized this time records with an entire symphony orchestra, and the sound turns out to be weighed down.

The sung songs are useless; 'One More Time' is a Saturday night song, instead sung by Romanthony (who is he???), here also co-producer (with a terrible voice à la Eiffel 65!) who even manages to ruin 'Too Long' at the end. Apart from self-references and quotes from Kraftwerk and 80’s electronics, the album is bad, we have listened to it multiple times waiting for it to grab us, but it lacks character.

"Grace Kelly With Wings," a song of fragile and delicate beauty that at one point erupts. "Great potential but still a so-so album. If they follow the path announced by 'Grace Kelly With Wings' ... they will achieve great things."

Certain bands at some point should disband to forever preserve the greatness that once was. The calm and serene resignation with which he narrated his stories gives way to decidedly ugly sung parts, making you want to pull your hair out.

The title track is a soft spleen, dragged out, which degenerates into a cacophony of brass towards the end. "Can't Stop" could be a Radiohead song with vocal parts climbing against chunky guitars à la Velvet Underground.

Mascis is also the one who made the virtuosic guitar solo listenable again, banned by punk. A great album like all those of Dinosaur, even if it lacks the hit single like on 'Where You Been.' A timeless record.
