PROG REVIEWER
This album is not exactly an anthology. Here you can find two new tracks "Quelli come noi"and "Hey, lassù!": both are just weak commercial pop songs (with the first one the bandtook part to the San Remo festival, a popular happening in Italy bound to commercial popmusic). All the other tracks are more or less successful songs coming from pop past of theband, completely rerecorded with new arrangements. In my opinion here there'sabsolutely nothing interesting for a prog lover. Anyway, if you like this band and youwant to explore their pop efforts, I think that it would be better look for an anthology withthe original versions.
This is not a bad pop album but it is definitely an useless one, released by a band runningout of new ideas, though with a great musicianship. In my opinion it is just forcompletionists!

At this time of their career, there are little chances to hear such a great album as "Ut" of course.Especially when one has to acknowledge that this album holds almost exclusively very oldsongs from the band, but played with new arrangements and sounds.
"Signore, Io Sono Irish" for instance was featured on their first album "Senza Orario, SenzaBandiera". Other ones are "Visioni" and "Una Mineira" from their sophom*ore work. Etc.
The objective being to offer a new angle to these old pieces. Was it useful? I guess not. Thetrack selection skips totally their most prog songs in favour of the commercial aspect. So, progis again alien here.
Average Italian pop as they ought to produce for the last fifteen years or so. Some goodmelodies though but most of this album is just too mellow and quite unbearable. "Poster" ismaybe one of the weakest (but there are several that could deserve the crown, like "Aldebaran"for instance).
The couple of new songs is on par, don't worry: nothing to write home about. The best adviseis of course to stay far, far away from this "Quelli Come Noi". Totally useless IMO.
One star. What else?

This is not the New Trolls as I want to remember them. From what Andrea has told me (us), thisalbum is two original tracks plus some additional tracks. I really does not know those two originaltracks from those additional tracks.The music on this album is a mix of Italian pop and the 1980... (read more)

What about this album? One should try to understand what prompted such a band to recordan album of this kind. POP, too POP. Commercial, too commercial. Without magic, feelingand... Since these are New Trolls it makes me very badly. The cover is very sad! Interestingidea of the puzzle ... On... (read more)
