For 100 minutes I enjoyed this small latest Polanskian work. And, as I find myself repeating every time I finish a new film of his, I said: long live Roman.

 The film deserves to be seen for a pair like this [Emmanuelle Seigner and Eva Green].

 Maximum power distortion, sweat, various filth are the toxic ingredients of a music story that has now reached thirty years of life.

 A dark blow full of pitch, strong with impressive sludgy contaminations, with the usual Arif who behind the microphone does whatever the hell he wants.

 The more you listen to one of their records, the more you want to spin it: and this Code Error sticks to the rule.

 It is not a memorable work; you won’t lose sleep if you don’t listen to it, but at the same time, you won’t be wasting time if you pay it some attention.

 Sometimes the music develops in the aforementioned funk direction, with quite pleasant results.

Harry Betts' soundtrack for The Fantastic Plastic Machine offers a sunny, thematic surf sound mixed with funk, jazz, and psychedelia.

 Ian Watson indeed attempts the impossible, deploying a novel certainly challenging for its philosophical and speculative content.

 A certain slowness in the narration that, to the detriment of curiosity itself, ends up discouraging the reader.

Ian Watson’s novel Mockymen attempts a complex fusion of sci-fi, espionage, and deep philosophical themes, set in a dystopian future involving alien species and Nazi revivalism. The story follows secret agent Anna Sherman as she uncovers unsettling truths about the alien Mockymen and their manipulative plans. While ambitious and thought-provoking, the novel suffers from a heavy and slow narrative that may discourage readers. Despite its challenges, Watson’s work retains intellectual merit, though this particular title falls short of his best. Dive into Ian Watson's Mockymen for a thought-provoking sci-fi journey—explore its complex mysteries today!

 Saul Williams' call was indeed heard by a giant of African-American music, saxophonist David Murray.

 The blending with slam poetry, Gil Scott-Heron’s attitude, gospel, and an underlying Sly And The Family Stone soul makes it at least original and worthy of, how to say, lending an ear.

Blues For Memo is a tribute album by saxophonist David Murray and rapper/poet Saul Williams, inspired by the legacy of Amiri Baraka. The album blends jazz, slam poetry, gospel, and soul to address social and political realities. Recorded in Istanbul with prominent collaborators, it honors both Baraka and Turkish jazz pioneer Memo Ulug.

 "The Real People remains a brilliant and underappreciated album that... ultimately anticipates sounds that would become beloved in Britpop."

 In 1993 a young guitarist, Noel Gallagher, sought their help to record the demo needed for his band to secure their first record deal.

The Real People's 1991 self-titled debut album is a standout yet underrated part of early Britpop history. Drawing inspiration from 60s Merseyside sound and the Madchester scene, it combines melodic guitar pop with funk and dance elements. Produced by Stephen Street, it remains timeless and influential despite modest chart success. The band also played a crucial role in supporting early Oasis demos, linking them permanently to Britpop's rise. Explore The Real People's debut album and discover the roots of Britpop’s iconic sound!

 These tracks are almost reminiscent of their debut; they are pop-rock gems that tell of melancholy and nostalgia.

 The themes of abandonment and the eternal battle between old and new, stasis and determination in advancing their own revenges seem to dominate.

The Sundays' second album 'Blind' continues the melancholic and nostalgic pop-rock style that made their debut successful. Despite label challenges, the band self-managed and produced a well-received follow-up.

 Jon DuPree saw in Marc Bolan’s style, more than Bowie’s, a matchless model of pop composition between outrage and catchiness.

 A band that could have really broken through by continuing on this path but dissipated far too soon despite the potential and ideas all present in this single proof of their career.

Earth Eighteen's Butterfly marked a brief yet striking foray into glam rock influenced by Marc Bolan and sci-fi imagery. Released and ended in 1995, the album blends catchy pop and theatrical rock, showing great potential despite the band's short lifespan. Highlights include the love ballad 'The Fall Divine' and space-themed 'Blood Revival 99.'

 Listening to it is a bit like racing in a car without sparing the handbrake around the corners.

 'Double Negative' is a schizophrenic melodrama of explosive emotions, a true sonic stone-throwing that doesn’t envy too much Unsane, Cherubs, Helmet, Cows, and company.

Hammerhead's 1994 album 'Into the Vortex' delivers a raw, rhythmic, and chaotic noise rock experience reminiscent of seminal bands like Unsane and Helmet. The 2018 re-release preserves its frayed production and powerful sonic textures. Highlights include the emotive track 'Double Negative,' showcasing explosive transitions and guttural lyrics. This album is highly recommended for fans of compressed distortion and intense alternative rock sounds. Dive into Hammerhead’s 'Into the Vortex' now and experience raw noise rock energy redefined!

 The idea of presenting a failed hero, Luke Skywalker, grappling with his voluntary exile, reminds us of a significant factor in this tormented and critical present: the lack of trust in mentors.

 This epic... no longer belongs to the youth of the ’70s/’80s but is of these timid and new kids who today move in a difficult and insecure world.
