 Applying rational criteria to something like this is an improper operation, perhaps even senseless.

 Simply out-of-category album... to the uninitiated, I highly recommend handling the product with extreme caution: it is not a terrestrial object.

 "Rather than remixing an actual track, they recycle the synths and style from the original, generating completely new pieces."

 "It is one of the most 'song-like', most melodic, and human tracks Autechre have ever composed."

Keynell Remixes by Gescom, featuring Autechre under their own name, reimagine the original Key Nell with innovative synth recycling.

 The dull and anonymous sound marks the fate of this LP for the most part, and the highly questionable performance of the frontman.

 This 'Live At Last' depicts an off-form band that seems like a pale cover band of the creators of 'Black Sabbath' and 'Sabbath Bloody Sabbath.'

Black Sabbath's 'Live At Last' is a live album filled with classic tracks but marred by poor sound quality and weak performances, especially from Ozzy Osbourne. The recording, originally a semi-bootleg from 1972, was only officially released in 1980 and has been overlooked since. Despite some moments of decent playing, the album feels dull and lacks the energy and passion fans expect. Overall, it serves only as a cultural artifact rather than a must-have live recording. Discover why 'Live At Last' is a rare glimpse into Black Sabbath's live history—read the full review and decide for yourself!

 "TONIGHT IS GONNA BE THE NIGHT...WHEN THE MOON AND STARS AND THE STAGE ARE SHINING BRIIIIIIGHT!!!"

 "Danny Byrd's sonic signature is there but there’s a vague aura of seriousness that somewhat clashes with the previous tracks; luckily 'Planet Earth' quickly arrives to satisfy my hunger for musical silliness."

Danny Byrd's Rave Digger is a lively and carefree drum'n'bass album that brings high-energy beats and party vibes. The tracks blend playful synths with catchy rhythms perfect for a fun night out. While some songs carry more serious tones, the overall feel is entertaining and youthful. Recommended for those who enjoy electronic dance music and rave culture. Listen to Danny Byrd's Rave Digger and experience the ultimate drum'n'bass party energy!

 This little group has a singer who offers a lyricism that truly stirs something, with a unique voice that is not always 'suitable' for the proposed genre.

 Not exactly the album of the year but truly sad and disconsolate. Suitable for the summer.

This review reflects a cautious but ultimately positive appreciation for Repeater's album 'We Walk From Safety.' The reviewer highlights unique vocal lyricism and emotional guitar work that sets the band apart from similar acts. Though not deemed the album of the year, its melancholy and sonic depth make it a notable and fulfilling indie rock experience. Listen to Repeater's 'We Walk From Safety' and explore their emotional indie rock sound today!

 If Rock 'N' Roll doesn't scare your parents, you're not listening to the right stuff.

 Their music is made not to make you think, that is, amoral (and not immoral) music, which makes puritans and moralists cringe, highlighting that in this world there is also sex, horror, and violence.

The review praises The Cramps' 1983 live album Smell of Female as a powerful and raw psychobilly performance. Highlighting the band's unique sound without electric bass and their nihilistic, amoral themes revolving around sex, horror, and violence, the album captures a vital moment in their career. The explosive stage presence of Lux Interior and Poison Ivy is emphasized, making the album a must-listen for fans of underground and provocative rock. Their music is compared to the literary grit of Charles Bukowski. Dive into the wild world of The Cramps' live psychobilly classic Smell of Female and experience raw rock 'n' roll intensity now!

 The Shadow Line immediately breaks the rules with their daring compositional maturity and fascinating, never predictable arrangements.

 Songs like Settembre and L’estate in un Giorno combine social criticism and everyday life with romanticism and disillusionment, grabbing the listener intimately.

Blending new wave and alternative pop, the album features empathetic and socially conscious lyrics in Italian, marking a bold step for the band.

Overall, it is praised for its daring structure and intimate poetic depth. Discover The Shadow Line’s evocative indie pop journey—listen now and feel the blend of dream and reality!

 After the first 10 minutes, any thinking human will start to get seriously bored.

 I don’t understand what pleasure, fun, satisfaction, and so on can possibly arise from looking at a background with the intent of finding a ballpoint pen, a bowling pin, a lollipop...

Escape Whisper Valley by SpinTop Games is a dull and repetitive Seek & Find game with no meaningful story or challenge. It recycles mechanics and designs from past titles, offering little to no enjoyment beyond the first 10 minutes. Despite attractive backgrounds, the gameplay becomes tedious quickly and lacks longevity. The reviewer advises against purchasing it or similar escape games due to their monotonous and uninspired nature. Avoid Escape Whisper Valley and explore better puzzle games with engaging stories and challenges.

 Assuming that banality is a word unknown to Chasny’s repertoire, his latest work might seem banal.

 It appears somewhat devoid of substance and less effective than usual.

Ben Chasny's 'Asleep On The Floodpain' offers a simpler, more straightforward folk sound compared to his past atmospheric works. While some songs shine and showcase his intricate guitar and voice, others come across as sparse and less emotionally charged. The album is a mixed bag, lacking some of the mystery and depth that characterize Six Organs Of Admittance's earlier releases. Overall, it remains a curious step in Chasny’s evolving musical journey. Discover the evolving folk sounds of Six Organs Of Admittance with 'Asleep On The Floodpain'—listen and explore its unique atmosphere today.

 Dark and hypnotic atmospheres, experimentation, and a wide range of influences... perfectly evoke the atmosphere of a small club in a big city.

 An excellent introduction to ‘intelligent/alternative’ (almost) contemporary electronic music for those who want to get closer to these sounds.

The reviewer, initially skeptical about electronic music, describes discovering DFA Compilation #2 as a compelling introduction to NYC's underground electropunk scene. The 3-CD set blends new-wave, punk, and electronic styles into dark, hypnotic moods evocative of a big city club environment. The compilation provides both newcomers and enthusiasts an exciting listen with its experimental and atmospheric sounds. Dive into DFA Compilation #2 and experience the dark, experimental beats of NYC's underground electropunk scene today!

 The album title and cover could paradoxically contain the message the band might want to leave, namely that of a death represented by an album that is indeed a blank shot towards music.

 It’s undeniable that today it’s really difficult to hope for a metal album that can stand the test of time.

Black Tide's sophomore album 'Post Mortem' fails to replicate the raw energy of their debut 'Lights From Above.' The band’s shift from classic heavy metal to a more commercial emo-metalcore style disappoints long-time fans. Industry pressures and a change in image and sound dilute the band's original identity. Despite some well-produced tracks, overall the album lacks the grit and authenticity that once defined them. The reviewer expresses skepticism about the future of metal given current market trends. Explore Black Tide's 'Post Mortem' to hear the controversial shift and decide if this metalcore change works for you.

 Simply analyzing the last work of the late Dissection, one immediately notices that the new path taken was very different from the '90s career.

 When the songwriting is inspired, there’s little to complain about.

Dissection's Reinkaos marks a significant departure from their earlier black metal style, incorporating melodic death metal and 70s rock influences. Despite mixed reactions from fans and the shadow of Jon Nödtveidt's controversial life, the album demonstrates artistic maturity with inspired songwriting and memorable guitar work. Some tracks fall short, but overall, it's a strong and unique metal album that challenges genre boundaries. The lyrics reflect deep philosophical concepts, adding further depth to the work. Discover the unique sound of Dissection's Reinkaos—stream the album now and dive into a new era of melodic metal mastery.

 Cherry Five has a stern, 'gothic' sound, full of virtuosity and amazing instrumental acrobatics.

Cherry Five is a rare and complex Italian progressive rock album from 1976, notable for featuring future Goblin members before their rise to fame. The album blends English symphonic prog influences with virtuoso musicianship, and despite its limited originality, it has gained deserved re-evaluation. High-quality recordings and compelling compositions make it a valuable find for Italian prog enthusiasts. The review awards the album four stars, praising its musicianship and historic significance. Explore Cherry Five's vintage prog gem and dive into the roots of Italian symphonic rock today!

 Live At Syria Mosque, taking place on a carefree day in April, shows us that the band can do without Peter Gabriel and probably, in a certain sense, manages to capture the audience’s attention more effectively as a band and not as a single member.

 The second part... gives rise to one of the numerous duets between Collins and Bruford, making the piece a genuine crescendo of drumstick and cymbal hits.

This review highlights the 1976 live Genesis bootleg recorded at Syria Mosque, praising the band’s musicianship during the post-Peter Gabriel era. Phil Collins’ vocals and drumming shine alongside Steve Hackett and Bill Bruford’s instrumental mastery. Despite some absence of classic songs, the performance captures a pivotal moment in Genesis’ prog rock evolution and offers impressive audio quality. The reviewer appreciates the band's ability to engage audiences as a cohesive unit. Listen to Genesis' electrifying 1976 live performance and experience a turning point in progressive rock history.

 I must admit that I was pleasantly surprised by this film.

 Remember: never sign a verbal check if you can’t cover it with your ass!

 "With his impeccable metrics and musicality, Grido shares his ideas and stories with rhymes both simple and sophisticated."

 "THG shows us that, when it comes to beats, he has nothing to envy from sacred monsters of the Italian scene like Dj Jad or Don Joe."

Grido's solo debut 'Io, Grido' impresses by showcasing his superior rhyme skills and personality beyond his work with Gemelli DiVersi. The album features sophisticated, personal, and socially aware lyrics produced by THG, who delivers outstanding beats. Tracks range from autobiographical stories to social critiques, revealing a diverse and mature hip hop experience.

 The imagined 'interiors' sway as if they too were lifted onto the train, effectively suggesting the sensation of a 'moving of memories' about to take over reality.

 The Maestro has left us, leaving an indelible and unmistakable mark on the Imaginary of the 20th century, constructing nonexistent worlds yet so similar to our own.

The review reflects on a rewatch of Fellini's early film I Vitelloni, praising its poetic depiction of memory and provincial youth. The film’s dreamy, nostalgic atmosphere deviates from strict neorealism, blending fantasy and recollection. The critic highlights Fellini's connection to Rimini and the recurring symbolism of the sea. The review appreciates the movie’s timeless impact on 20th-century cinema and its imaginative world-building. Discover Fellini's poetic masterpiece I Vitelloni—immerse yourself in nostalgic memories and cinematic fantasy!

 Curran’s fourth work ends up falling into a reflection on the truthfulness of God, which shares little to nothing with the film.

 Stone drags on slowly among dialogues born from a really poor screenplay and real filmic voids.

Stone brings together Robert De Niro and Edward Norton in a prison drama with psychological depth. However, its slow pace and weak screenplay hinder the film's impact. The director relies heavily on the actors' charisma, but their performances are uneven. The spiritual and romantic subplots feel superficial, contributing to a somewhat dull cinematic experience. Discover why Stone's strong cast couldn't save this slow prison drama—read the full review now!
