"The third chapter of the stoner novel written by Stoned Jesus struggles to take off."

 "A weak album that is saved by the skin of its teeth."

Stoned Jesus' third album 'The Harvest' fails to live up to the high expectations set by their previous releases. The album lacks the raw, psychedelic depth that made earlier works stand out, instead presenting a more restrained and less inspired sound. Highlights are rare, with some tracks reverting to classic doom but overall, the songwriting feels tired. This release marks a disappointing pause in the band's otherwise notable stoner/doom trajectory. Dive into the review and listen to 'The Harvest' to judge if you agree with the band's shift in style.

 You can easily copy someone, but then you must carry out your project in an original way without being a slavish imitator.

 I found myself in this rectangular place where people spoke Japanese, but the English subtitles at the bottom helped me understand.

 I had to meticulously follow all the details of the events, the latter sometimes becoming rivers that flowed into an ocean of dense and fleshy crap, Cronenbergian, the experts say.

 "The departure from the tropicalista aesthetic is evident right from the gloomy cover, which could be that of any post-punk or gothic rock record."

 "With the collaboration of Rogerio Duprat... Os Mutantes probably reached their artistic peak."

 The more thrash moments raise the level of the CD: akin to Anthrax at certain points or even Pantera as in "Join In Me In The Desert."

 What really didn’t sit well with me is the female vocals: they retained the voice from their gothic beginnings, although at times it becomes almost raspy.

Amantyde's 2011 album Madchen blends gothic metal vocals with thrash and alternative riffs. The album runs 34 minutes across nine tracks, mixing slower and more intense moments. While the thrash style portions are praised, the contrasting gothic female vocals divided the reviewer. The album is noted as simple, well-made, and featuring a solid cover of the Cranberries' "Zombie." Explore Amantyde's Madchen for a unique blend of gothic vocals and thrash metal energy today!

 Ian’s voice is as splendid as ever and the melody that accompanies it is in pure Bunnymen ballad style.

 'Lovers On The Run'... One of the most beautiful Bunnymen songs, surely from the last 20 years.

The review explores whether 'Meteorites' feels like a true Echo And The Bunnymen album or more of Ian McCulloch's solo work. Despite some filler tracks early on, the album grows stronger with standout songs like 'Lovers On The Run' and 'New Horizons.' Ian’s voice and the melodies deliver a nostalgic yet refreshing experience, making the purchase worthwhile. Listen to Meteorites and rediscover Echo And The Bunnymen's timeless sound today!

 The much-touted turning point was only partial, but everything else remains unchanged and therefore predictable.

 "Ti amo inutilmente" is the parody of a parody of a song, a horrifying track that seriously makes one reflect on the mechanisms of our music.

Antonello Venditti's 'Tortuga' follows three years after 'Unica,' showing only partial change with new collaborators and a more classical feel. The album remains predictable, featuring recurring themes of Rome and love. Short song lengths limit musical breathing space, and one track notably disappoints with weak lyrics and style. Despite some strong moments, including heartfelt tributes and energetic songs, the album overall falls short of expectations. Discover the highs and lows of Antonello Venditti's Tortuga—listen and judge if it meets your expectations!

 The cult blossoms between the grooves of "It's About Time."

 Moon unfolds to the viewer through a striking simplicity relative to the wealth of elements it contains.

 The mission is nearing its end and what remains to be told, once more, is man, in his loneliness, in his naivety, in his solidarity, in his cruelty.

Duncan Jones' debut film Moon impresses with its minimalist yet richly detailed approach to science fiction. The story centers on Sam Rockwell as a solitary astronaut nearing the end of a three-year lunar mission.
