is useless to me again exaggerated in value judgments about the bands of the historical epoch that suddenly rise up like the phoenix from the ashes, often legitimized only by the fact that they were present in a certain period. Many of them are pathetic, and some other passable phenomenal. The AOF is phenomenal. Their leader, Vic Bondi, undaunted, went through all the decades that separated the onset with this same band (we speak of 1982) until today. He never stopped, and that more importantly, he always kept in every project a very high standard. Especially with sottovalutatissimi JONES VERY, which I urge you to rediscover! Moreover Bondi always been one of the most enlightened and intelligent interpreters of the whole epic hc, a character of great resources.
This return, then? Five pieces of Articles Of Faith, just as they did 30 years ago. But the class is not water, and this class there is for sale! The structures of the songs follow exactly the archetypes that have rightly made it popular (but not popular), the band over the years, but we must bear in mind that these "archetypes" were and are made up of songs never dull, energetic, melodic with nice changes time and always politically engaged texts. Fortunately, listening to the record you do not feel those feelings of determination, "effort" that often are imposed resurrected zombies trying to emulate a freshness unnecessarily long extinct and buried. Here, the disk runs out natural sound "new" in every respect!
Now listen, we should ... do not do a favor to them, but yourself!
