Metallica - Death Magnetic


sure I'm not a fan of Metallica. I know not very well, I only have 3 albums (The Black Album, St. Anger and the last album mentioned here) and I listened to the album called "first time" many times and not so long ago (I speak of "Kill 'em all "and especially" Master of Puppets ").

From this start by saying that the condition precedent "St. Anger" was considered by all metalheads a hard unlistenable while I liked it, even if I think a bit 'too broad. It was not a metal album, no solos, sounds very indie. Brave, in fact. I think that Metallica fans hate him, or so ...

why I bought the new, which was released after 5 years earlier. is an album pigeonholed in the concept of "throwback" I generally much less impressed than "St. Anger" Metallica wanted to go back to Metallica. The point is that I have noticed that the disk has been accepted in a truly mixed, some say because they are boiled in an hour of music put everything they have done in 25-year career (and I would say that in this context are essentially agree with them) and there Some say that the songs must listen without prejudice and that the riffs are the best tours currently in the field of hard (and I agree with this statement).

are in midstream, they are not able to figure out where they want to get these four gentlemen vintage men millionaires ... probably only do what they want, not having to prove anything to anyone. The only certainty is that the hard work in the long run, and only if you have big claims. They should put in the car with the volume always very high, listen and listen again.

The square and devastating riffs push ... you realize that they are monstrous in terms of inventiveness, that the arrangements are sensational, there are cuts and changes that do not know how many would be able to invent / make. In some ways really impresses our "Death Magnetic"

automatically but you also realize that metal bands have never been able to write a ballad worthy of the name and Metallica are one example: pathetic attempts to give sense to a sequence of agreements which by their nature can never become distilled beauty (in "Death Magnetic" to get even the ridiculous "The Unforgiven III" as if they had enough of the failed attempts of the two previous chapters).

The final impression is that of a group returned to base as having realized that they are capable of playing music only significantly Metal.

And what if they pleased, they are happy to do this. The steps of "Load" "Re-Load" "St.Anger" and "Black Album" - to quote the most controversial episodes but also the most challenging in light of the growth of a group - did not lead to anything. am only interim steps, moments of madness if you will.

Ultimately should stop writing album, have made the history of heavy music and their "Death Magnetic" will end in my back burner fast enough, just the echo of their magnificent riff ends to let me go up and down her head.

What a strange group Metallica ... who understands them more ...

Sonic Youth - Live at Milan Alcatraz


no denying it ... the wait for this concert is huge. Sonic Youth missing for some 'time in Italy and outside Alcatraz proves it in full: very bulky tail a couple of hours before the concert, ticket touts, stalls crammed with magiette ... In short, the air is one of the best opportunities.

The opening group (called Golden Age Jooklo, I went looking for the name on the internet just to warn you) are a disaster as music not heard for some time. One piece 33 minutes with tiny variations, different type shit clarinet, synths, congas, cymbals from kitchen to throw up. Our ears beg for mercy and our brain is astonished by the many pseudo crap ringed by greenhorn presumptuous and arrogant. Others go fuck off ... I finally overwhelmed by boos and a lot of people (including myself) are very eloquent gestures: "Get the fuck out, you have stolen 33 minutes of our lives."
More or less the gist was this.

Thurston Moore takes the stage with a strange grin. It seems to me drunk. No, not ... energy is immediately palpable. The explosion comes early as the third piece for a second when I think of the worst: the Alcatraz held the force of impact? "'Cross The Breeze" is a bomb, really impressive, the sound is perfect and there are no musicians on stage but carrion. Fans below unleash the mayhem on stage, apart from the pogo that routs all the threads (goodbye ... see you guys in the car ...).

Following Ranaldo see astride his guitar lying on the ground with two strikes while the iron bars on several occasions, while Moore practically disgraced a guitar by putting a piece of iron inside the ropes dragged by a 'the other end of the handle (capitasti goodbye, I would say ...). Also great "Schizophrenia" with that going Scazzi pop-top that turns into pure indie-noise by spontaneous applause.

Eventually the disc will be sacked as "Daydream Nation" 5 pieces, but I also remember a great piece at last "Rather Ripped" ("Jams Run Free") that the next day brought me to listen to reapeat on my home stereo for 5-6 times. Beautiful, beautiful ... are in great shape ...

Huge two guitars (special mention for Thurston), crazy battery (with dick in Bologna a few years ago he sounded so ...) I think only subdued Kim Gordon, very secluded for the presence second stage of a low (it is rumored the former Pavement bassist) much more on the ball. There were no hits ... is true (like Kool Thing, Death Valley 69, Youth Against Fascism ...) but in the end is not very important.

What matters is that after nearly 30 years of music the SY are still able to prove so alive and bastards. All the lessons from them, without exception.

Late Of The Pier - Fantasy Black Channel


Their music is a mix of synthesizers, guitars, vocals and solid rhythmic base which seem eclectic. I recently came up with the latest album "Fantasy Black Channel" schizophrenic, surprising and compelling.
This is a review of the album through the videos that accompany the disc.

Bathroom Gurgle
half-naked with strange symbols drawn on the whole body and surrounded by broken mirrors. A dark figure dressed in black and masked moves between the players. The music is haunting and insistent. But then everything changes: it becomes a falsetto vocals and the ending is a crescendo of synths, beats and vocals to rave pink floyd.

Bears are coming
Where are we? Who are those strange people that walk in the woods? It 's a new American TV series? A parallel world? What is this strange tribal music? Why the song takes an unexpected turn at the end? It 'scary! The answer is a marshmallow?

Space and woods
What year is it? It looks like a video of 1982. White and black eyes giant floating in the sky, the prospects Escher, surrealist imagery. The music is synth pop a bullet fired at full speed.

Focker
Keyboards saturated and sounds from earaches. The 4 sound like crazy links between green walls. Then the irreparable happens: here comes the monster that spits tape hi-fi music like Simian Mobile Disco and takes them to blows with the drumstick. What is the point? None.

Heartbeat
The epic of Late of The Pier at its greatest. The music is the usual intersection of guitars, keyboards and tempo changes. In the video our time-traveling (I'm not sure which one), are half-naked, strange esoteric symbols here and there. Low and drums pumping rhythm. Heartbeat!
