About Me:
Delusions of Adequacy/Sea of Tranquility - USA- January 2011
"Taken as a whole conceptual statement, it's a masterpiece. It's as if David Lynch produced Italian opera. It's an experience you'll never forget."
Jordan Blum
DPRP -- U.K.- April 2011
"Claudio Milano is one of the best male vocalists I have ever heard...an avant garde art rock album that oozes class from beginning to end...imagine David Lynch married with the excellence of Diamanda Galas."
John O'Boyle
Terrascope - U.K. - January 2011
"A truly multitalented guys...with more than 2½ hours of music for eyes and ears you'll have to add some energy of your own into it, but, it's well worth it !"
Simon Lewis
Prognaut -- U.S.A.-- November 2010
" "Il Gioco del Silenzio" is one of the most brilliant CD's I have listened to in the last 10 years. There are just a few dozen singers in the entire world, that I have heard that command the art of vocals this way."
Lee Henderson
Progarchives - U.S.A. - November/January 2010
"A cornerstone of Italy's experimental musical scene in the years to come"
César Inca Mendoza Loyola
"With a warm and precise tone, Claudio Milano masters the change of registers and within a second is able to go from a deep whispering to a high falsetto shouting, all this effortless! And like a vocal spider, he then threads his musical web around this voice... his vocal chords function like a yo-yo!"
Pierre Tassone
"A sound which is powerful, arresting and truly unique. Highly recommended."
David Edwards
"Imagine Paolo Conte gone berserk after being locked up in isolation for 2 weeks with nothing to listen to but Alban Berg's "Wozzeck". Insanity guaranteed. Close to a masterpiece."
Karl Bonne
Exclaim! - Canada - November 2010
"There is more than a touch of Fellini's carnival sensibility throughout the varied tunes, but where Federico's work was humorous and nostalgic, Nichelodeon are hallucinatory and dark, in very, very interesting ways. If you like your music big, deep, philosophical and passionate, Nichelodeon definitely offer something to sink your teeth into."
Glen Hall
Rocktologist -- Slovenia -- March 2011
"Milano has proven himself to be a fine composer, singer and lyricist. Three great talents all rolled into one. He created a true work of art, which will be hard to surpass in the future."
Rok Podgrajšek
Onda Rock -- Italy- December 2010
"An album of unique beauty ... Echoes of Art Bears and Henry Cow, Central European perfumes. Free jazz for free minds. "Cantare la voce/Singing the voice," someone said, a noble time ... One of the best records in recent years."
Massimo Marchini
Il Mucchio Selvaggio/Fuori dal Mucchio - Italy- November 2010
"A band from Milan composed of seven elements that moves into an area so vast as to include experimentation and free jazz, ethnic influences and prog, post-punk deconstructions and noisy, new wave and even, the Italian songwriters. .. the twelve tracks collected here ask a lot of attention, but if they are approached with an open mind and desire to get involved can give a lot of satisfaction."
Aurelio Pasini
Rumore - Italy - December 2010
"This is an attractive invitation card from a concrete reality of the Italian avant-garde ... worthy of mention for posterity."
Emanuele Sacchi
Buscadero - Italy - December 2010
"Their music evokes the charm and the mysterious beauty of an abstract painting ... composed of classical elegance, breathtaking rock hits and obscure and avant-garde dissonance ... barely simmering find points of reference if not in HP Lovercraft's most dreamy pages. A phantasmagoric multi-media performance."
Luca Salmini
Rockerilla -- Italy - December 2010
"A mixture of Rock in Opposition, avant-prog and jazz caught twelve-tone (with references to Demetrio Stratos and Opus Avantra but also to Giovanni Lindo Ferretti) geared to the provocation ... a show dedicated to the irreverence and desecration, covered with the colors of a sensational soundpainting psychedelic. Satisfaction guaranteed."
Enrico Ramunni
Il Manifesto/Alias -- Italy - December 2010
"A very complex and fascinating subject ... a swirl of sound situations ... a dizzly game of joints, embracing avant-garde and European art rock, desecration and weighted, accurate melodic profiles ... Area and Van Der Graaf Generator in the secret book of the heart. On top of the hill, the exciting voice of Claudio Milano."
Guido Festinese
Caleidoscoop -- The Netherlands -- October 2010
"A mix of Elijah's Mantle, King Crimson, Zappa, Angelo Badalamenti, Tuxedomoon, Debussy, Christian Wolz, Mike Patton, Naked City, Supersilent, Virgin Prunes and Mikhail would not suffice to define "The game of silence. " This is art with a capital A! A giant has passed through Italy. Phenomenal!"
Jan Willem Broek
Babyblaue -- Germany -- November 2010
"The Italian version of the Music Theatre of Brecht and Weill, reported to the 21st century."
Sal Pichireddu
"Great!"
