That's the singer of the band copying the review from some blog. Here's my tip: If you submit a 95% review for your own album, at least write the damn thing yourself!

That album wasn't half bad, I wonder if the singer could have just contacted the original writer and asked him to open an account here and post the review, it wouldn't have taken that much effort and even if that didn't happen, there was enough fan boy reviews of the demo that that album would have a mega ton of praise in the next few weeks. Just going a little too hard on the promotional side of things. |

I get that one-song reviews get leniency for brevity, but this is literally the only descriptive content in the review: Quote: While “Nosferatu” has had a slew of pasty facelifts over the years, this version is the barest. Disappearing over time is its eerie, twilight-lurked intro, meanwhile appearing over time are more of the wildly chaotic solos that only sparingly see light of day here. It’s also the only time you’ll hear long lost drummer Harry Tyler curdle the song’s lyrics. Rhythmically all is intact, albeit more inexpertly executed, and the whole thing’s nestled behind one great pencil drawing that gives the song a pointy-eared face. It reads more like a comparison to later versions of the song than a review, and honestly I have no idea how this version would even sound based on this description. |

| I like how he consistently puts "progressive" in quotes, like he doesn't believe that progression in the musical sense is an actual thing. But yes, it has the word "haters" in the review title; it must go. |

There are two negative reviews for that album and about 11 positive ones, so I'm not sure where the super defensive stance comes from...and yeah anyone who says "haters" needs to be shot. |

The title "Go eat a bag of dick" is actually a reverence to the song "a ziltoidian rapture" by Devin Townsend. Bad review though. |

This review only covers the Helloween side of the Helloween/Running Wild/Hellhammer/Dark Avenger split: http://www.metal-archives.com/reviews/Helloween...enger/Death_Metal/45188/Wra1th1s And to make matters worse, it just trashes the Helloween side, with barely any musical description, just comparisons to the same tracks on the Walls of Jericho. |

This one by Gutterscream doesn't exactly say anything about the music. He also wrote it in a weird way... and what's with that period at the very end? http://www.metal-archives.com/reviews/R ... ower/4717/ This Cattle Decapitation review by the abysmal Shadow0fDeath is short and without the necessary information to keep such a review around. Just comparisons to the debut album, but not a real way that'd let listeners know the differences besides "overpower". Also, "vokills" are  .

http://www.metal-archives.com/reviews/T ... sag_Asakku It seems well-written enough, but there doesn't really seem to be any real discussion of the music itself beyond that it bares strong similarities to Dissection. If I hadn't already been familiar with Dissection, I'd have absolutely no idea what this band sounded like going solely off of the review. |

| Post subject: | Re: Oven Fodder (Provide LINKS, please) |
It could minimally describe the Dissection sound a bit more to make the comparison more understandable, but as it is I don't think it will be nuked as it's the only less than positive review on the album. And it's well written actually. |
