Reception
La Repubblica's music critic Ernesto Assante praised the album, describing it as "Gianna Nannini's best work in recent years" and noting: "Ethnic and popular music, hard and essential rock, melody and tradition, research and technology, come together in this work in a simple and straightforward manner, in a series of songs that, while maintaining a strong and rough approach, are at the same time the result of a careful work of mixing, of fusion, of comparison between different cultures and sounds".[2]
Marinella Venegoni from La Stampa wrote: "It is a cohesive album, built on a convincing blend of melodrama, energetic rock, and ethnic inspiration—three elements that might hardly coexist were it not for her [Nannini] presence at the center of it all".[3]
