Death In Venice - LUCHINO VISCONTI

Advantages: Great music is always an advantage...
Disadvantages: Great music don't have it

...the world fame, despite his complete devotion to the debatable one "cultural politics" of the then U.R.S.S., it is Shostakovic which, for his same admission, owes a lot to Mahler. The Fourth Symphony of the Russian would not be thinkable before without the Fourth or the Bohemian's Fifth, with that sense "panic" and at the same time "magic" of the nature that permeates and it unites so the three Symphonies. In the title I told from Vienna to Venice (implicitly remembering "You death in Venice " in the cinema version, in which the Adagietto of the Fifth Symphony of Mahler is used), but I could also have been telling for the century of the romanticism that of the more disenchanted and, together, deperate vision of the life that has been the whole century that we have been having for little time greeted .

...Finnish band Norther, friends and contemporaries of Death Metal luminaries such as Children of Bodom and Ensiferum, are still something of an unknown quantity in the Death Metal world, despite producing some of the finest, and heaviest, albums in the last few years. The first time I heard Norther was when my girlfriend played them for me, and I was blown away by the power, the speed, the enthusiasm, and the talent displayed by this group of young men. The highlight of Norther's career thus far is undoubtedly their 2004 release Death Unlimited, in which they stake their claim for Death Metal kings with an album that simply blows away the competition. I believe this can be attributed to their using less keyboards than bands like Children of Bodom, which lends the tunes on the album an increased brutality and directness - a refreshing...
