Trigger Warning: Death / Sexual Coercion
This is a personal one. When I was 10 years old, I got exposed to one of my favourite movies ever; a movie so special I always wanted to revisit, but a movie that gradually became so haunting and agonizing I want to forget. The concept of a 10y me getting exposed to Threads sounds dangerous, and jesus ... read more

This is the weird bullshit your drunk father would cite as the "death of rock" as we know it. You know what? He may be right. While I am an avid sucker of anything that sounds cool and hypnotic, I'm not a fucking drone to suck every album in the existence and give it a ... read more

Mr. Brian Motherfucking Eno. One of a kind. I was always an Alan Parsons guy to be honest. Considered by everybody as the ultimate inventor of genres, Eno is seen by any human being as a wizard of music, the creator of music 2 and other impressive and big as fuck tags; while I ... read more

What the fuck? Lets put all the pieces together. When you think about the cities, there is a sense of modernity, quiet but dynamic and colorful places, and the most important aspect of a modern metropolis: cool citizens. The civils can come across different presentations; either ... read more

Have you looked at my ratings graphic? Well, it's a bit odd, so let's fix that. This is a personal challenge where I explore 110 albums and talk about them in smaller and more simple ways. Also, 1 review per day to not fry myself.

"A hieroglyphic album for the lost."
Distance is a hell of a feeling. Turmoil to see what it was hidden from you can invade the body when you are curious enough to explore the parts of your own distorted mind. And when I go back to the city where I was born, I can't help but notice it's a labyrinth of bad and good choices to take and change your life.
Wire's masterpiece, 154, is a puzzling album. A truly complicated one to see. Each direction it takes is a mental ... read more
My favourite game is to take a shot each time the Duffer brothers play this track in Stranger Things' final season. It accelerates my death.
I had a bigger and wilder review of 154 by Wire in my plans, but as of this moment my computer needs corrective fix due to a heavy problem in the keyboard, so I am taking a little Christmas nap. (I'm also going under medication again lol)
On other stuff, I just need to say there is little to no music that matches the chaotic and erratic beautiness of By Storm. Some of the most hypnotic, gorgeous and impressive Experimental Hip Hop out there, and a truly impactful blend of Rap and ... read more
TL;DR: this jit cracks totalism
In and out, contact and despondence.
Nothing can be grotesque without a glimpse of beautiness at their core appeal. The dissonance can be discomforting if yo never got exposed to the sheer density of the masses screaming and rambling like manic idiots around a stage. When the celebrations and riots hit your sweet ears to the anxiety, collapse and bleeding point, all of a sudden, the no-human atonality can be something different.
In my case the feedbacks of ... read more
Some of the worst years of my life summarized into a epic 3-minute outro.
As someone whose favourite habit is to constantly be delusional about music my mother would consider as a cause of my autism while the tremolos scratch her ears as a gunshot bla bla bla, I tend to feel melancholic when I discover bands that were at their prime when I was not even something in this cosmic void called earth. As some people may know, I am truly lonely, and I use this music as a escape to my internal ... read more

QUICK RE-REVIEW:
Silent Alarm is one of those albums I have a complicated story with. I began to listen to BP hating this one, while I prefered their following artistic evolutions as a band (I still do tho), but each time I re-check some tracks like Positive Tension and Price of Gasoline, the greatest virtue this band had at its peak shows in: their capacity to be a lot of shit and sounding clean. There is a lot of things going on, overall when they do this strange blend of frenzy guitars with ... read more
If I had to choose an album to call it as the End of Music, the closest thing we have to that might be Variations. But the only thing that stops me to give it that label is one main thing. It's way closer to be the End of humanity. It's the sprawling death whispering to you to end everything when you are as distracted as possible to drain your control over yourself.
It's not pleasant nor calm. It's threatening, harrowing and the supposed peace it should bring just attracts ... read more
