So real I can't even process what I just heard.
As an italian, this feels great.

I'm an Italian fellow too, and the answer is no, they have never read a book.
this is cringe asf to read lol

@@diegopetracca9639 il punto è proprio quello, nessuno ti ha detto di togliere l'auricolare sinistro... poi il titolo del video dice 2007!! lyrics video è ironicamente destinato a essere inteso come quei lyrics video amatoriali fatti da ragazzini annoiati su canzoni d'amore alquanto deprecabili, ma che li facevano emozionare e volevo onorare quei ragazzi ormai maturati e cresciuti con quei miei errori sgrammaticati... ma qui siamo sotto il commento di un uomo che è onorato che l'Italia rappresentata da un gruppo rock sia stata valutata da un ragazzo senza capelli, quindi non devo spiegare il senso dei miei mixini scrausi, ma rendere onore ai maneskin che hanno saputo arrivare fino a qui, fino a questo video che è sempre un'opinione di fantano, che è sempre divertente, che non ci toglie i peccati mondani che ogni giorno commettiamo... siamo qui per non pensare... quindi ti perdono se non ti piace quello che ho fatto, spero tu possa perdonare me per la lunghezza di questa risposta, sei un grande! un abbraccio

Nah man Imagine Dragon are much better 🙅♂️🧢
Imagine dragons is a great pop band and maneskin is an amazing rock band
I think they were given a lot of pressure to appeal to the American market. I can’t explain how I feel about this album, it’s definitely not something I would go back to. I still have three of their Italian language tracks on my replay.
As if the italian market was more exciting somehow.
@@joaquin5929 you might be surprised
If you listen to this album and aren’t sure how to feel about it, I worry for you. It’s so painfully lame and embarrassing. I would feel shame if this was playing in my car and my windows were down at a stop light.

“Are you a munch?”
It makes me so happy seeing him so much again
I think he did the same thing at the start of last year. Used cal for a few weeks then nearly stopped completely for the rest of the year. Love cal

@@aggonzalez8096 Real reason I watch his music reviews.
The ONE time someone from Italy becomes famous doing something kinda cool (even if not revolutionary) they immediately change and turn into the funhouse version of themselves
Nah, they always sucked.
They were never revolutionary in the first place
@Vuoto Pneumatico Non Non they had a few nice italian tracks, now all of it sucks
They were embarassing also at the beginning.
Listen to Ad Nauseam, an interesting italian band reviewed positively also by Anthony Fantano
@@bobajanfettsolo9143 agree
I can't believe something born out of Eurovision ended up so bad. Truly one of the moments of all time.
Such a moment fr
Abba came out of Eurovision and they were incredible. These jamooks deserved to win that year for sure. They haven’t exactly proved themselves to be that interesting outside of that win though.
@@KnivingDispodia the lone exception since eurovision has been a thing
😂
@@KnivingDispodia abba was already famous I think
All of their songs in english sound like their pandering to some group that I don't even know exists. It's a shame because some of their original material in Italian sounded decent.
lyrically and vocally, their material is better in italian. their previous album (teatro d'ira vol 1) was all in italian and those songs are what got me into the band. as a huge fan, this album disappointed me a bit. i didn't hate it, but i wished they retained more of their original sound.
the same group that AJR panders to is my guess
The group they're pandering to is middle-aged Italian women who want to be "down with the youth" but also ~are too squeamish to listen to actual rap~ wanna "rock".
Oh and who are also lusting after Damiano
their English songs were written by American producers, so…
I really liked what they were doing when they came onto the scene. Damiano has a nice, raspy voice. The lyrics were playful and tongue-in-cheek. I don't know what the hell happened. The lyrics are either cringey or out of touch. Damiano's voice is drowned in autotune, which makes no sense because he can actually sing. This album took everything likeable about them and tossed it in the trash, which is really unfortunate. Hopefully it's just a bump in the road :/
Voice is terrible and grating
That's what happen when a passionate band becomes all of a sudden a product for the whole globe market
It's just them trying to, unfortunately, take the American market. But also, don't think there's a lot of autotune on his voice. I haven't seen the album performed live, but I have seen the singles and previous music live and that's how he sounds. Could be different for the rest of the album though
Autotune?! 🤣I think you have it in your ears. Or maybe in the brain.
Wait wait wait ur telling me they had likeable qualifies before? I thought they were just popular because they faked sniffing Charlie for attention
I feel like Fantano's Italian pride makes this red flannel slightly harder
As someone who really enjoyed their Eurovision winning track (Zitti E Buoni), their nosedive since then has been kinda sad to see. I never had them down as the next Foo Fighters or something, like absolute rock megastars, but they sounded like a fun and anarchic garage rock throwback band, campy and catchy kinda like The Darkness or something. I mean, the mere fact they entered Eurovision, the most campy and cheesy music contest on the planet, and won? That should tell you what their appeal is.
Whoever decided they should be pushed as the next breakthrough mainstream rock act has utterly failed them. Lame covers, Tom Morello features, and goddamn MAX MARTIN on songwriting and production credits? It's not just that the attempt for crossover success was ill-judged to begin with, but it was done badly to boot. Can you imagine Lordi winning Eurovision in 2006 with a ridiculously over the top hard rock/heavy metal banger, then immediately trying to shoot for crossover mainstream appeal by taking away what made them interesting to begin with? Yeah, good luck with that.
Shame. I kinda hope once the hype and fallout from this record has died down and they've faded from public consciousness, they realise the shot at the big time is over and just go back to writing fun garage rock jams again. At least they were having fun with that, and were more fun to listen to.
Zitti e buoni was a banger but the music after took a weird turn indeed. Wasted potential after mainstream success, many such cases!
@@knottedtwig3289 it's not wasted, it was actually rushed as the title suggests
Yes this. Lordi just kept doing what they did and they're still soaring. Got their mf eigteenth album coming up in march
I knew they were gonna take a nosedive when they spent months living in LA. I don't know who told them they needed to make mediocre songs in English to appeal to an American audience, since plenty of Americans were already loving their first two albums. Major glow down.
@@saraennis1402 if anything it sounds surprisingly more bri'ish than murrican, it's like Måneskin picked on every surface-level feature of the bands they personally enjoy from IDLES to Franz Ferdinand, from The Vines (I know they're Australian) and The Hives (I know they're Swedish) to Palaye Royale and The Struts.
Just a note on the fact that you mentioned about them coming out of X-Factor: unfortunately, if you want to blow up in Italy, that is practically the only way to do it. Also because you can only go to the Eurovision if you win the Sanremo Festival, to which you can't participate unless you're already pretty established. There are other ways but it's always via contests.. Basically the music industry/ music scene in Italy goes forward through contests and competitions, so I really wouldn't criticise them for that
@@antonioamati_ and thats why they're "indie" and will never blow up internationally, which was more what Maneskin were striving for
@@antonioamati_ also they went on xfactor in 2017, which really is mid 2010s as you mentioned
May depend by what do you intend with "to blow up in Italy" with music. If you mean to be famous without real talent or long life career, ok tv is the solution to be aired at the city mall cableradio and idolatred for nothing. But this is not a music career, this is a fake dream. This is not music, is a empty product. Music business is not Fk*n sanremo or f*kn xfuc*tor.
@@ikkizof5865 lol
Bah, gli artisti italiani più ascoltati negli ultimi 10 anni sono: sfera ebbasta, Guè, salmo, tha sup, Marracash, Gemitaiz, Lazza, capo plaza, ultimo e rkomi. Se contiamo Sanremo come un contest ne sono passati 3 su 10, anche se Lazza e rkomi erano già ascoltati prima di Sanremo, di quei 10 solo Ultimo è uscito da un talent. Sei rimasta indietro a una ventina di anni fa insomma
måneskin's music before being signed was so authentic and organic. they were kids that happened to be from italy that just so happened to love writing music and they did it well. their italian songs were poetic but didn't feel melodramatic, and even to a non-italian speaker you could tell there was a story being told. their english songs were great; the band knew how to have fun without compromising their distinct style. their music was rich with layers of instruments and vocals and a production style that was truly their own. you could hear a few seconds of a song and say "yep, that's måneskin."
they got signed to a major label (an american one, i might add) and now all these hollywood people write and produce their music, chose the themes, and manufacture their brand. and it shows. the stylistic changes between albums like chosen and teatro d'ira and what we have now with rush can't just be attributed to their "growth as a band" or "change in taste." it reeks of a label cashing in on the "edgy" crowd they know makes them money without getting to know måneskin as people and as artists. their instruments and vocals are now flat, their rhythm quantized, and their lyrical content cliche, predictable, and transparent. you know these songs were made by people sitting in a boardroom, not by a group of young ones with something to say. not anymore. not to mention, teatro d'ira was a volume 1. now we may never know how the series continues because the label made them put out rush.
måneskin is great when they are allowed to do what they want, not when they are pigeon-holed into what the industry thinks sells.
they lost me after i heard mammamia for the first time. it was obvious that the label wanted another IWBYS and i knew that the music wouldn't be the same afterwards. then i was proven right when i heard supermodel, the loneliest, and whatever came out before and after that. i fell in love with måneskin for the stories they told, the causes they believed in, and their incredible knack for creating a mood that was uniquely theirs. now their music sounds like everything else the industry synthesizes to generate revenue.
i hope in the long term they realize this and move forward with their creative visions, uninterrupted by the demands of a label that mishandles their art and their name. i was so excited to see how they would use the resources they'd be granted by a record contract, but i'm sad to see how their label now sees *them* as a resource, as a means to an end; not artists, not people, but a cheap image of "rebellion" that only a corporate structure could think is relatable.
hashtag free mäneskin
No Sorry. They have always been like that honestly
@LUMINEI i know them since their first album. At the beginning they had some decent ballads but nothing new or original. A lot of marketing, and covers, and basic ideas. But yeah, they became even worse when they tried to do some fake punk-rock tracks. But honestly there was nothing really special in them since the very beginning, just too much adv.
Their music wasn't authentic nor organic. The just made standard italian storytelling-ballads with some rock in it.
A song like "Torna a casa", a single from their first album, has nothing new if put in the italian musical panorama: listen to people like Ultimo, Fabrizio Moro or Ermal Meta, they evoke the same, imo shallow, feelings. Even their audiences overlap. No funky guitars though, thats so different and fresh!
The true, different, impactful change was the aesthetic of it all: good dressing choices, a sexy frontman with an interesting voice and, again, the revolution of playing a guitar.
They're pretty young. I hope that with time and experience they eventually end up somewhere stylistically meaningful or interesting. They're making bank now, that's for sure.
I like how I automatically knew the rating just by the title
Glad Cal is back and you are letting him out of that closet in a very tasteful amount of time. It works.
Still waiting on that second album
He's been quiet because The New CALassic was so perfect and brilliant that nothing else he could release would ever come close to its greatness. It was truly the gold standard of modern music. Nevermind? Garbage. The Chronic? Terrible. TPAB? Are you crazy? Kendrick wishes he could come out with a record as stellar as The New CALassic.
Is Anthony an evil head of a record label? Is that the lore?
It's kinda sad how Anthony can say how we're all depressed and it not be a hyperbole.
You could say it’s depressing
I can't describe it, but I always had a feeling Cal could speak fluent Italian. I don't know, it just makes sense to me.
Lmao. R u serious right neow

me too, i absolutely loved their last album but i feel like they completely scrapped what made them interesting on rush
They are literally Rome's own Greta Van Fleet, this score was to be expected. Still, Melon, you should reeeally check out other Italian acts (Iosonouncane, as others suggested is a good starting point)
La macarena su Roma is a golden record
ottima recensione signor Melone, tuttavia non capisco come mai hai proseguito per 5 minuti buoni a spiegare perché la Meloni (che, guarda caso, ha il tuo stesso nome) sia idonea per salire al governo. vabbè, dai nonostante tutto complimenti e continua così il tuo lavoro!

Gen Z usually avoids classic rock like the plague and they have a multitude of reasons to do so, but as a consequence they now think Maneskin, Greta Van Fleet and MGK are groundbreaking.
GFV kinda are compared to the other two
@@turboshazed7370 Greta Van Fleet are great musicians, no doubt. It’s the songwriting that’s kinda meh. Also, for some of their first recordings it was very questionable that they were copying every little nuance about Led Zeppelin’s playing and writing style. It was uncanny, and that comes from someone who liked Jet and Airborne when they first started.
@@luistijerina im with you on that
Given how classic rock has been an overexploited formula for a long time, perhaps other ways of making rock such as indie, alternative or fusion are the best way for the scene to conquer Gen Z. For example, Haim, Florence + The Machine and Brittany Howard.
I agree that their lyrics are not the best, but I still find their songs to be pretty catchy and enjoyable. Personally i wanted more high energy songs in italian like "zitti e buoni" but overall I would say I'm satisfied with their work.

Grazie Antonio per questa bellissima recensione
Maneskin is the new Nickelback.
In Italy everyone agrees with you

Why are Maneskin fans so sensitive regarding the review and comments section?! Fantano has slaughtered albums I like, and that’s cool with me it’s just his opinion at the end of the day.

Niente fessa, solo dolore
Every review is shitting on this. I just finally listened to the album and enjoyed it LOL.
Yes…I heard The Loneliest on the radio in America heheh
The singer of this band came to my birthday party when we were both 12 lol. Haven't spoken to him since tho
This is the most spot on review of this album I've ever heard.
Cheers from Italy
Måneskin fan here. Honestly I thought this album was pretty mid. Their previous album was fantastic, and I feel like they're at their best when they're making songs in Italian. My favorite songs off their new album are the ones in Italian. Il dono della vita is my favorite, and like you said la fine is good.
La Fine felt like a return to form for them. I hope the next album is better than this.
bro explain that album art
@@cyanpunch6140 Idk man. It was certainly a choice. That's all I can say.
Seriously, Im suprised of their success post-Eurovision. It’s something to be studied.
Hard work, this Is the reason! you're used to singers who make a hit every year or two and then enjoy their holidays around the world, full of money doing nothing with autotuned singing and songwriters available.
@@jeanrenault9865 psst! Can I tell you a secret?
On this record you'll find autotune and songwriters on almost every track.
@@arielpagliero9619 of course its a registered album, i talked about concerts.
Pssst, go to see a concert!
@@jeanrenault9865 a maneskin concert? They'd have to pay me to do such thing.
Psst, concerts don't change the fact that they don't even write their own songs anymore (and when they do those are the worst ones).
@@arielpagliero9619 The front man Is a
great songwriter and most of the songs are written by him including italian songs. Pssst If you dont like them i dont care, If you dont go to a concert its Not my problem Goodbye
As much as I enjoyed their previous stuff, especially Damiano's singing, this album just didn't do it for me. It feels like they switched from mostly Italian songs plus some English to mainly English songs to pander to the American market and something got lost in that transition...
I did NOT expect Cal Chuchesta to speak fluent Italian
They were one of the only bands from Eurovision that I actually took seriously and would be huge outside of their home country and they did which is cool to see and I loved their Italian songs more but I don't like their english songs as much.Of course they aren't going anywhere anytime soon due to their worldwide popularity and huge fanbase but it seems their crossover music into the States doesn't appeal to me.
From the same creators of “Machine Gun Kelly is gonna save rock”, here it comes “Maneskin is gonna save rock”
Wait people thought mgk was gonna save rock???😭
It's kinda sad because I like their aesthetic and stage presence. And although the songs on teatro d'ira weren't revolutionary by any standards I actually really enjoy the album, it's a fun listen. Now it just feels like they're trying to remake I Wanna Be Your slave over and over again
That’s the problem with mainstream music. You have to have a pretty face and aesthetic. I wish people would focus on the music
@@veryfinan5187 music and genres have always had associated looks to it, this is nothing new. maybe you think it is exaggerated because of social media but really, looks have been integral to mainstream music since forever
@@tehlion7430 I mean yeah but in the past it wasn’t JUST looks that garnered your success. This band is a good example of how it’s not that way anymore. Horrible songs, beginner-level musicianship but the members were blessed with the genetic lottery so they get to be famous and rich, while mountains of underground bands who are better in every way go unnoticed because they weren’t god’s beautiful gift to the earth.
Now check out 9mm's album "On the edge" and enjoy an actual good (and criminally underrated) band from Italy.
I can see these guys touring with Greta Van Fleet at some point and then Boomers proclaiming that "rock music has been saved".
Look Anthony, I know Rush isnt the same without the late Neil Peart, but giving them a 2 is a little harsh,no?

No
The nice thing about Maneskin is that sometimes you want to listen to a band where you’d definitely rail 75% of them

@@tenson95 24 febbraio ci stanno Stormø e Riviera al Covo qui a Bologna dajeee
Italian here. Thought I'd share my perspective on this band.
When it won Sanremo, I had liked Zitti e Buoni, for the most part.
Lyrics were trite and cringe, which is sadly the standard for mainstream Italian music, but the music and vocals were pretty good. It was definitely nice to see these guys win Sanremo, rather than the interchangeable pop crap that usually wins.
No masterpiece, but it was a fun change of pace for Italian music. Not a giant step, but something.
After that, everything else they released I found annoying and disappointing. Lyrics never improved and the music got worse and worse. Beggin', especially, was such shit.
Coraline was probably the only exception. It kind of kept my hopes up a little. Probably their best lyrics (though nothing amazing) and musically it was alright.
But, boy, did they jump DEEP into the whole "we're selling ourselves and not our music" spyral. As their popularity has increased, the effort put into their music has steadily declined.
MAMMAMIA is truly awful and such a transparent effort to 1) appeal to English markets who romanticize my country to a pathetic degree, without knowing much about it and 2) make Italians proud of their baby prodigies.
Bottom line, I think the band has potential but they're squandering it more and more. And they don't seem INTENTIONED to make poignant music, they're just being stereotypical rockstars.
Which might seem fine to some, but it depressed the fuck out of me because I though music had gone beyond that and because, once again, Italy is acting proud about doing something that the US literally did thousands of times before in the past 50 years.
We are so behind on everything, when it comes to mainstream art production. It's embarassing.
I thin the more simpler explanation is that you are not their target audience. They have had such success with this album, their concerts had 6 hour queues here, heck the song you said is "truly awful" is the favorite of a lot of people I know. Just because you "dont get it" and are not into it is not always the fault of the artist
@@karlhans8304exactly lol. I'm not a big fan of that song either but I can see it having a large audience.
As an italian i can say that Cal Chuchesta at 2:57 completely nailed it.
While Maneskin don't...

Thanks Anthony for the honest review. Here in Italy every critique and reviewer is a kiss asser for the band (with the excpetion of Enrico Silvestrin, to be fair. The man eventually got all the hate sadly).
I really needed this
Quantocecapisco
No but in all seriousness, I really don’t understand the praise for something already done thirty years ago, but I guess we’re always goin to be late in everything
It's either that or that incredibly dumb critique they're getting because someone somewhat relevant in the music world is saying that "screaming isn't music", as if they were a powerviolence band.
Stuff like this is why I don't listen to Italian records outside of the underground.
As an italian I personally cannot understand all the hype that this band has outside my country,I always thought they were pretty lame.
Outside italy people love rondo da sosa, that says it all
You have to review sleep tokens new album when it comes out, hell, review their first couple albums if you want.
I'm surprised he listened to this one enough times to be able to review it. This was a once and done for me.
a real doubt: how does fatano choose the LPs on the shelf? matching with the vibe of the album reviewed?
Oh thanks from Italy for this review!! I quote everything you said
Anthony looks comprehensibly exhausted by the multiple listenings to this album. 😂
Beggin’ (that I didn’t have to hear this album.)
I would love to see you review more internationally recognized italian artists, but the more experimental and interesting like IOSONOUNCANE whose last album was crazy (IRA) and where the language barrier is non existent
IRA amazes me every time I listen to it. It's a truly special album.
DIE for classic week
Honestly as someone who doesn’t normally listen to Rock music, I really got into it with their “Teatro d’ira”album (which is amazing btw) but this one felt a little boring and lackluster
i was so eager and hopeful for this album but it did indeed fall flat for me as well.
Their last album was nice, but this one was torture
I'm not Italian myself, just a fan of Italian rock music asking: what would be the opinion of Fantano for other Italian bands?
I think he actually reviewed an Italian metal band some time ago, but I can't remember their name...

Holy shit. Pitchfork and needle derp gave an album the same score. Am I in a parallel universe?
Really like Foreskin real Italian rock \m/
I liked a lot of their early singles, even if it wasn’t anything out of the ordinary, I thought they still brought a lot of grit, rawness and energy to their music. I was happy to see a band from Italy finally make it in the states, and when I saw them live, they crushed it. But yeah, all that said, this album is not it. They didn’t have to rush into the English-speaking market like this. I still think they have potential, though. They just have to chill out and put a lot more thought into the next album.
Well, in a way "Rush!" ended up being a wittier album title than any reviewer thinks.
I didn't hate it as much as you, Melon, but yeah, this album should've been better.
Hey! Since this is probably the first italian band featured on this channel, I'd recommend all of you to listen to Verdena (maybe start from "Requiem"), heavy psychedelic rock from northern italy.
yess! verdena is the best of the best italian rock has to offer to me
This album is very forgettable. I preferred the songs in Italian because they seemed to break the monotonous dance formula with a 2000s rock aesthetic. I felt like “If Not For You” was more of an emo ballad than a grunge one.
What Fantano calls a “tight” rhythm section I would call a flavorless and zombie-like Pro Tools one.
I would’ve given it a 3/5 because I’m not feeling mean, but chances are that time will see it slide to more of a 2/5 score.
Very funny how Lil Yachty made a better rock album than the band who people kept saying would bring rock back to the mainstream.
Which album?
I hate their cover of Beggin
If Måneskin has a million haters, I'm one of them
If Måneskin has a hundred haters, I'm one of them
If Måneskin has one hater, it's me
If the world is for Måneskin, I'm against the world
If Måneskin has no haters, I'm no longer alive
That much of hate for a silly band, what a sad life dude...
Say what you will, they’re really good performers live. I saw some glimpses at Lolapallozza and they were pretty cool in my opinion…
Edit: I should clarify that I am not biggest fans of them, I tried listening to them lol. I am simply stating that they’re better live than recorded imo.
Che palle
@@MidnightTales rosse e gialle
I agree, watched them live at the Coca Cola Music Experience festival in Madrid and the crowd loved them, the group's energy was great and you could tell everyone had a good time
I wish this whole album was better than it actually was. Maneskin's a lot more interesting than this and I wouldn't be that upset if it underperformed. Especially if it means we get better songs from them going forward. I wish they would give up on the US and go back to Italy because at least they're more interesting in Italian than English.
we need review of teatro d'ira vol.1 and il ballo della vita
I'm italian and I don't like them, so I'm not disagreeing on the video as a whole, but I'd just like to point out that I think that you kind of missed the point on the whole "mamma mia" thing: NOBODY in Italy seriously uses it as an expression, I think it was chosen as a title for a track mainly as a joke, and not because "they're italian" like you seem to point out.
Hadn’t seen Cal in a while what a pleasant surprise
Abysmal band. Luckily we also have Ad Nauseam in Italy.
I love their previous album. Can you review Teatro d’ira Vol. 1?
Mama Mia isn't even a new song. It's like two years old. I don't know why it was on this album
OK, I have to say I love their first two albums, but I'm not in a Rush! to hear that one...I'm on my way back in time hearing old KISS albums...and there is much to do! 😉
oh my lord, Cal speaking Italian then the, What? I about fell out of my chair.
Maneskin is indie rock music for Gen Zs who paint their nails and think they’re genderfluid
Very pleased with the Calzone Chuchesta appearance.
Still don't understand why they're so successful
I don't know why I keep watching your videos. All of them are so infuriating to me.
This is so funny to read.
ok so. I enjoy Maneskin, like I don't mind them. I like seeing them around and they look like great fun live, but I don't listen to their music. Do I sing along and bob my head if their song comes up on the radio? Yes. Do I thing they are good musicians? Yeah, sure. Do I think they're worth my time and money and they offer something unique? Hell to the no. I'm sure their passion for music and what they do is one hundred percent genuine, hell I even used to hype them up when they were on the X Factor, at the time they felt like a breath of fresh air. Now that same air has been recycled in a 30 years old ac unit and it stinks. We need to open the windows. I don't know that becoming so famous so young was good for them. Fortunately they don't seem to be burned out just yet, an amazing feat for the two years they just had, but they are so devoid of meaning and content. They are beautiful rocking shells but everything they do is so derivative and unoriginal, they are to rock music what tik tok aesthetics are to 20th century subcultures. But I don't think it's worth it to actively hate on them either. They are a bunch of twenty years olds having the time of their lives, there's no harm in that. It's actually a pity their music isn't that good, otherwise they would truly be unstoppable.
Also the "don't act like you don't know" at the end of Gossip's chorus is straight up ripped from Rihanna.
True words
Might get lost in the comments but I wanna have your opinions on the new HARDY album, a double album that’s half rock and half country
While the lyrics are extremely off putting if you pay attention to them, im kinda fucking with the instrumentation and production a lot, some of the hooks are kinda catchy, and the melody/rhythm of them gets stuck in my head, but god they sound super pretentious with some of these lyrics like goddamn 😭 there are elements on this album that i love, but some that just bring the whole thing down by a lot, not sure how to feel about this one
As an Italian, I can't stand Maneskin and all the people who are excusing their success because "at least it's not trap!, lol" or "you're just envious of their success!"... no. No, God, no.
It's a terrible, childish, gimmicky band that makes look Machine Gun Kelly pop punk sound like Ligeti ffs... okay, I exaggerated here, but you get the point. It's nice to see someone criticizing them.
