I thought I would take a bit of time before voting here, but still - I just can't. The band that is the closest to being my #1 is Cervello, but Museo Rosenbach, Area, Osanna, Arti e Mestieri, and Balletto are really close behind. Still can't vote.

Have you ever thought about wearing pant suits Mick? Just saw the array of colored pant suits worn by your next President at the bottom of your page. Not sure if you'd wear them to work but they'd certainly work for lounging around the house or even raking leaves. Versatile is the word.


versatile?  nah...  I am a man not woman. As cool as that might be I suppose. Typical man in I have 10 tools in my tool box that all can do the same thing.

comfort is the word man!!!  those things look damn comfortable..

not to mention sexier than all hell.... god I want Hillary so badlyEmbarrassedLOL

First vote for Latte e Miele! Their debut album is one of my all time favorites, and the new version is just as good! And they have several other excellent albums as well, classic and modern.

But so many essential bands on this list!

Just beat out Osanna, QVL, BdB, and Alphataurus, Museo Rosenbach, and Procession.

I threw a vote to Semiramis.
Their heavy parts are intense with guitar and keyboards and their mellower parts are nice.

I know every band except Procession and Festa Mobile. Since it's impossible to vote for the best, I voted for QVL because I heard their debut last night Wink

Brilliant selection though.

So much options! I vote for Alphataurus, because along with their classic stuff, I really like the 2012 album AttosecondO.
Outside the list I have to mention: Raccomandata Ricevuta Ritorno, Campo di Marte and Biglietto per l'Inferno.

Looking down the list, pretty much every single one of these artists has put out a top-notch album that could easily make it into a collection of essential Italian discs....
 
Totally agree with you.
