5.0 classic |
Antonio Vivaldi The Four Seasons |
Four moving concertos for violin and orchestra from a still natural baroque, in touch with the perception of the composer and incredible in composition and feeling. From the cheerful and sober excitement of both equinoxes to the dark and moody solstices, there is not a single banal piece to be found here. Anyway I'm just to tired of Spring, truth to be told, but due solely to overexposure. |

Probably the best compilation album ever. Pungent and melodic, it showcases all the virtues of this influential band, which is quite orgasmic. |

Diablo Swing Orchestra Pandora's Pinata |
Well, after 3 years listening to this band my opinion of them changed dramatically: first, they seemed like an overindulgent neoprog/latin/metal fusion: now they're a brilliant image of what wonderful, funny, inspiring music this global and strange age is capable to bring. And after a year listening to this album, their best I must say, it has grown on me from a marginal classic to become one of the best metal albums I've heard in my entire life. Cleverly arranged, adventurous, psychedelic, festive and dramatic, Pandora's Piata doesn't present no weak spots. Avant-garde guerrilla the way it must be done today. |

This album tries so hard to seem boring, failing so miserably. A work of genius, a moving piece of beauty. What else can I say? |

Manu Chao Clandestino |
The true Manu Chao album. Creative and experimental from the booklet to the very last song, travelling musical collages which deals with actual issues and not the "high-on-marijuana-and-loving-you-despite-all-world's-unfairness" that will occupy the very core of Chao's song writing on the rest of his albums. |

Good, if only a little bit bombastic to fit with mi mood. Anyway, worth buying. |

Born.Music.Die: the most solid release of their career before the 4 years hiatus that followed. Polished production, great team work and amazing melodies mixed with some hardness here and there, all wrapped in a neat black package and 12 fast paced songs. Anyway, its straightforwardness make it lesser to Haria in my eyes, but for the average post-hardcore/melodic hardcore listener, this is definitely the place to start. Lyrically, it's a combative and youthful record, but not their best.

The RHCP, now an aged combine, delight us with their old hound rhymes and their funky savoir faire. The presence of weak material in this album can be easily excused because it contains a lot of honest, heartfelt and open minded declarations. Not their best album, but it surely contains some of their best material, threading closely (and masterfully) to the pop-rock territory. They also mend some of the weaknesses showcased by their previous effort, By the Way, though they don't manage to beat Californication. |
