Yeah you are, but I doubt anyone will review it (no offense).

I really need some more reviews for my stuff. (http://www.metal-archives.com/band.php?id=7223)

Here's the link for the split again that already has three reviews:

http://mp3.de/musik/genre/band/080100/200702/32_87329

I also uploaded two older releases of which I'd very much enjoy any reviews at all:

"War" (Demo 1999): http://rapidshare.de/files/9503721/War.1999.rar.html
"Inferno" (Full-length 2002): http://rapidshare.de/files/9504794/Infe ... 2.rar.html

Love to hear the work, but I can't grab those files since they're .rar and becaue of how they're uploaded (I'm assuming those files are quite large by my 56k standards).

I might review it. You may not agree with me though.

I can live with anything. Personally I wouldn't exactly give my old stuff 100% either. And as for the split, I've received several beatings for it and my self-esteem didn't go down in a ferocious implosion, so... That thought shouldn't stand in the way of things.

Oh don't worry, since you are a human being as a self-respecting Black Metaller I of course hate you already. ;)

Well Inferno is near 60mb, but the War demo is only 9 point something megabytes large. Not that I'd recommend downloading it, since its one demo that deserves an honorary mention in any "Worst sound possible"-thread. :)

Adramelech - Pure Blood Doom and Asphyx - The Rack need to be reviewed!

I'd do it myself but I'm lazy.

Now that we got "Anthems..." done though, there isn't a single negative review for former-fun-Death-Metal-band and later-fun-Black-Metal-band Immortal's supposedly "Black Metal" album "Pure Holocaust" either...

That's largely because Pure Holocaust is a fucking awesome album. And this is coming from someone who's not much of an Immortal fan (really, PH and Blizzard Beasts are the only ones that live up to the hype).

You really are influenced by Prozak nonsense...

I fail to see how Pure Holocaust could possibly be classified as a "fun black metal" album, with the possible exception of "Storming Through Red Clouds and Holocaustwinds" (with that utterly terrible chorus). The songs aren't particularly catchy, nor are they particularly bouncy, upbeat, or saccharine (unlike the two laughably over-rated albums that it's sandwiched between).

Take the argument to either the reviews page or some thread in Metal (or both).

Not even for the seven minute 1999 demo?

I have just submitted a review for the 1999 demo, where I give it a 74%.

I'd like to see either Gutterscream or OSS do a review of an Iron Savior album. Preferably Condition Red but any album of theirs will do.

Don't have any of their work. If you could upload the record onto a host somewhere where my 56k connection can take its sweet time downloading it track by track I'd do it, but if not the earliest I could get to it would be September when I go to uni. :(

As far as I heard broadband is cheaper in Canada than in Germany, and here you can get 1mbit DSL for 10 bucks per month total.

Sure, provided you live in a broadband accessible area, which I don't.

I request a few 0% reviews for possibly the most awful death/grind recordings in history. Here is the link to the release in question:

http://www.metal-archives.com/release.php?id=96609

And here is the link to the mp3s:

My band is on metal-archives, and i was wondering if someone would write a review on my latest demo, "A Night of Primitive Black Metal", i can email all the tracks, so if you are interested, contact me by emailing me at [email protected].

track listing..

Our sacriligious spiritualism
Crushing winds from the cold moon
Passing down the sword of darkness
I am the darkness that christians blame on satan
A beast of endless names
Where the black sacrifices are performed
Towards majestic woods
Von (Von cover)

I have, for a long time, wanted to write a review of Falkenbach's Laeknishendr demo but can't even get started on it. As such, it would be very appreciated if someone writes a review of it.

I'm listening to it now... Making a review would be nearly impossible. How do you review such a demo?!

I have aimed to review it completely on its own with no considerations as to Falkenbach's subsequent output or something... but it is really strange how it despite neither being unusually long or complex just won't let itself be reviewed somehow.
