Brother that picture for Dino you posted is of a compilation album made long after his death, what I was referring to was his 1962 original album of the same name. Here's the wiki link for the legitimate album.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dino:_Italian_Love_Songs

Also not sure how your listen to these albums but if you're having trouble finding it the album is on spotify under it's name "Italian Love Songs" along with the real album art. I just want to make sure you don't listen to a knockoff "best of" comp haha. Also I'll recommend again The Pharcyde's album "Bizarre Ride II"

Hmm just did a forum search and never found any post where "Trollheart" and "Cocteau Twins" are featured together, and if that's the case holy crap switch my rec to Heaven or Las Vegas. However if you really have heard that album just keep it Sea When Absent

Track 1(Love) The orchestration is lovely, his voice is great, really dark and sombre, obviously classically trained (opera?); percussion comes in just at the right time. Really like this. Actually, scratch that: I LOVE this!
Track 2(Hate) This is a bit more abrasive. Big disappointment after the epic opener. FTR, his voice was still fantastic.
Track 3(Love) This has an odd kind of sepulchral feel to it; the dark booming percussion is great. The switch to the orchestral halfway through is lovely.
Track 4(Love) This is like progressive rock! Love this!
Track 5(Love) This one is brilliant also. Man has this guy got a voice!
Track 6(Love) This is dark and moody with a certain Cave touch to it. Gets pretty intense. Superb guitar.
Track 7(Love) More powerful orchestration which perfectly complements his strident voice
Track 8(Love) Country-style feel to this; powerful drumming and a wailing guitar like a ghost howling over the prairie
Track 9(Love) And a perfect closer.

End result: If someone had said to me, you'll like Scott Walker, I would not have believed it, and given that Grindy was sure I'd hate this, I'm delighted to say I don't. I enjoyed every single track bar that second one. After that it was all smooth sailing.

So, Love or Hate? Oh, a sure Love.

Chances of a full review: 6/10

Yeah, sure. You're just trying to prove me wrong.

But seriously, glad you liked it, it's a great album. Shows what I know.

Tell you what, TH. Listen to half of it (the best tracks are at the beginning), and if you hate it, you can stop.

Before this whole thing gets shut down again I'm throwing in...

Death - Symbolic

Aztec Camera - High Land, Hard Rain

If you want, just do the regular tracks, and not the bonus stuff.
