LA RECENSIONE

Sometimes they return. Sometimes they return with two more breasts, two million fewer hairs, two hundred more wrinkles, two millimeters less class.
Genesis P-Orridge has become a woman, which, from being a father of two, is a leap that would make one pale who goes from Lotta Continua to Forza Italia...

Sometimes they return, for too many reasons. The important thing is that they return with something to say and to give. It may not be the most beautiful album of TG's career, but "TG NOW" has class to spare, you can feel it in your bones. The last two tracks are amazing, especially the second to last, a sort of symphony for a foot forced to step on a puddle of foul-smelling oil. A nice window into the noise-industrial of this era, certainly not a window on an amusement park but on a metropolis avenue without rain for three months.
Recommended: for those who look at reality with boxing gloves a millimeter from their nose. Not recommended: for those who do everything to stay afloat as if staying afloat were a salvation and not a condemnation.

The final tracks, especially the penultimate one, stand out as profound expressions of modern industrial music. Recommended for listeners seeking raw and challenging sound.
