 Attack on Memory is objectively an excellent and yet baffling record for those who have heard the previous ones.

 An album in which the direct and unfiltered speed of punk sits in an armchair to reflect.

Cloud Nothings' album Attack On Memory marks a significant shift from their fresh, raw indie-punk roots to a more mature, reflective sound under Steve Albini's production. The band experiments with longer, noisier tracks, blending punk speed with post-rock elements. While some moments recall their earlier style, the overall tone is more thoughtful and ambitious. Recommended for fans of post-hardcore and alternative rock who appreciate growth in sound. Discover Cloud Nothings’ bold evolution—listen to Attack On Memory now!

 This album has a purely technical, electronic brain, but at the same time a warm and pulsating soul.

 Tracks like Black Water or Escape simply reach the pinnacle of these sensations, in an almost cathartic listening.

The Devil's Walk by Apparat is a minimal electronic album that combines delayed synths, hypnotic reverbs, and sparse rhythms to create a warm and expressive sound. Influenced by recent electronic trends, it balances technical precision with emotional warmth across 10 tracks. Highlights include the cathartic 'Song of Los,' 'Black Water,' and 'Escape,' though some songs like 'A Bang in the Void' feel slightly repetitive on multiple listens. Overall, a strong, thoughtful effort from Apparat. Listen to Apparat's The Devil's Walk now and experience a masterful blend of emotion and minimal electronic soundscapes.

 Orcrist is an Italian musical project created by Grav, a drummer with very limited technical and compositional skills.

 "We Come in War" is probably the best album in Orcrist's entire discography, with a concluding track that is undeniably beautiful.

Orcrist’s 2009 album We Come In War is a raw, stylistically pure black metal record made by a purist who rejects any evolution of the genre. The technical skill is limited, resulting in sloppy performances and amateurish drum parts. Despite this, the album features notable guest musicians and the final track, "The Silence," stands out as a rare positive moment. The album is recommended only for die-hard true black metal fans familiar with the genre’s underground aesthetics. Dive into the raw world of true black metal with Orcrist’s We Come In War—listen now if you crave pure underground metal intensity.

 Shake Your Money Maker is one of the few albums that enter not just my brain but also my heart.

 The Black Crowes offer an essential rock, raw, hard, yet easy to listen to for everyone.

This review praises The Black Crowes' 1990 debut album, Shake Your Money Maker, as a powerful revival of southern rock during a transitional time in the rock scene. Blending raw rock with blues influences, the album stands out through memorable tracks like Hard to Handle and She Talks To Angels.

 "Rossofuoco have returned more spirited compared to their last work and with higher quality production."

 "The album creates a middle ground between the early Rossofuoco, those angry rockers with strong punk influences, and the latter, more intimate and melodic."

Rojo marks a strong return for Giorgio Canali & Rossofuoco after a writer's block and production delays. The album balances angry punk roots with more melodic ballads and features notable collaborations, especially with Angela Baraldi.

 Warp has outdone everyone by snagging one of the few commendable and capable artists in a scene not exactly made up of stars.

 A decidedly good album, which completely deconstructs current rhythmic and melodic themes by infusing them with old-school UK breakbeats.

Rustie’s debut album Glass Swords is a high-quality production blending UK hip-hop, rave, and dubstep influences. It showcases intelligent use of breakbeats and modern techniques, drawing from iconic artists like Liam Howlett. Warp Records continues to champion innovative and trend-aware music with this standout release. Listen to Rustie’s Glass Swords and experience a fresh fusion of UK hip-hop, rave, and cutting-edge electronic sounds today!

 Music, more than unburdened, which unburdens and puts at ease, fascinating is the voice of the lovely Yukimi Nagano.

 The first track, which gives the album its name, 'The Ritual Union,' outlines the best of Little Dragon, electronic-tinged pop sinuously carried by the marvelous voice of an indispensable Yukimi Nagano.

The review discusses Little Dragon's 2011 album Ritual Union, highlighting its electro-pop style led by Yukimi Nagano’s mesmerizing voice. Though the album is enjoyable and worth multiple listens, it is somewhat overshadowed by their previous masterpiece, Machine Dreams. The reviewer critiques the album’s shift towards dub influences and the unappealing cover art, but acknowledges moments of originality and charm throughout the tracks. Discover Little Dragon’s Ritual Union—listen now to experience their unique electro-pop fusion!

 A feeling between a foggy, melancholic dream and a splash of ice-cold water in the face, resulting from new sounds.

 Capolinea is an important testimony of a group I consider the most significant in Italy in the Progressive Rock scene.

Banco Del Mutuo Soccorso's live album Capolinea captures the band’s transitional moment as it bridges the late 1970s progressive rock with new 1980s sounds. Featuring exceptional musicianship and unique live reinterpretations, the album divides fans due to its stylistic changes and production polish. Nonetheless, it stands as an important testament to the band's musical journey and enduring creativity.

 "It's enough to report the show’s setlist... and you can find it at the end."

 The figure of Edgar was played by Leonardo Di Caprio, who performs a colossal acting task, portraying Edgar across nearly 50 years.

 Despite an underlining immobility that makes J. Edgar at times extremely heavy, nothing can be said about the final product.

Clint Eastwood’s J. Edgar is a carefully crafted biopic about the controversial FBI chief, featuring an outstanding performance by Leonardo DiCaprio. The film navigates Hoover’s political conservatism and complex personal life with depth and subtlety. Though the pacing is slow and dialogue-heavy, the emotional crescendo and strong character development make it compelling. Eastwood’s classic direction supports a detailed and nuanced portrayal, addressing ideological themes and historical context. Discover the nuanced portrait of J. Edgar Hoover through DiCaprio’s powerful performance and Eastwood’s masterful direction. Watch or read more now!

 "Live In London captures a confident band, agile and compact that casts a glance back at the early LPs."

 "The album is very smooth and powerful, and deserves a listen, at least for the supporters of Testament."

The review praises Testament's Live In London for capturing the band's classic thrash metal sound with precision and energy. It highlights the quality of the lineup and sound production while noting the omission of tracks from The Gathering. Despite a few setlist criticisms, the album is deemed powerful and worthy, especially for Testament fans. Dive into Testament's Live In London and experience classic thrash metal energy with this powerful, well-produced performance!

 Lake Of Tears is a "wish I could but can’t": a band that always seems to have the handbrake on.

 "Moons and Mushrooms" stands out for more marked power but suffers from a formula that is well-oiled but at times too stale.

Lake Of Tears' Moons And Mushrooms is a well-produced and quality gothic rock album that lacks compositional freshness and standout hits. The band has demonstrated persistence and experimentation throughout their career without achieving significant mainstream success. The album offers dark atmospheres and melodic nuances but feels somewhat stuck in musical patterns. Despite its merits, it doesn't fully capitalize on the band's potential and seems to mark a plateau in their creative output. Discover the dark melodic sounds of Lake Of Tears’ Moons And Mushrooms and explore a unique gothic rock journey.

 An honest album. Not a heartless grunge revival like Bush or Silverchair.

 If your copy of Nevermind is so worn out it doesn’t even spin in a subatomic particle accelerator anymore, give Comfort a listen.

Failure's 1992 album Comfort blends hard rock, pop melodies, and grunge influences, capturing the early '90s alternative scene sound. Produced by Steve Albini, the album offers catchy songs reminiscent of Nirvana and Pixies, delivering a heartfelt and enjoyable listening experience. While derivative, it remains an honest and solid record deserving attention. A recommended listen for fans missing a well-crafted grunge-era album. Listen now to Failure's Comfort for a solid dose of ’90s grunge-influenced rock!

Eugenio Bennato's 1986 album Eughenes continues his exploration of Neapolitan folk music with vibrant and nostalgic songs. Despite excellent compositions and meaningful themes, poor recording quality detracts from the overall experience. Notable tracks include 'Sole sole' and 'Basilicata,' blending cheerful choirs and melancholic ballads. Recommended for fans and newcomers eager to explore Bennato's musical world. Discover the heartfelt folk tales and vibrant melodies of Eugenio Bennato's Eughenes—listen now and explore the roots of Italian folk music!

 Throne of Molok has created a devastating mix that is hard to get tired of!

 Their music is a perfect blend of a blasphemous Black Metal attitude and typically Death-like sonic violence.

The band avoids flashy production and excessive speed, focusing instead on impactful riffs and a raw, uncompromising sound.

 The jewel of All Music Show was without any doubt the fake soap Intralci, a true mockery of the classic intrigues of love, death, and little sweeteners from 1000 or more episodes.

 All Music Show was a decent/good container of parodies, trash, hyperuranic absurdity and verbal libertinism, yet proposed by outstanding characters, never boring or predictable.
