This review is indeed better than the Black Sabbath review you wrote

The Black Sabbath one was a. my first review, b. intentionally offensive at parts in order to provoke discussion and thought (i was harangued for being "psuedo-intellectual" for that not-very-intellectual statement in that thread) and c. made good points about the strength of the album by using the title song as an example. I agree this one is better but that one wasn't the crap some people have made it out to be; they couldn't see anything past the "metal sucks" rhetoric, which you find in reviews all the time.

crysis- im working on a postive review for an album, hopefully it will be posted by tonight.

I'm a really big metal fan, but not a Black Sabbath fan at all. I'm just offended when someone comes out and says that the music I enjoy is complete garbage, so it's a good idea not to include things like that in future reviews.

that was included to do exactly what it did. it was hyperbole (note the screenname).

So were you simply trying to spark controversy?

i was trying to make a point by exagerating a point. when you make a big mistake and say "grr i could kill myself" do you mean it? not really. but you're demonstrating the gravity of a point by exagerating it. you feel extremely stupid and bad for making the mistake. killing yourself is obviously a serious thing. so you are quite serious in saying you are extremely upset about it, though you're not actually suicidal. hopefully that illuminates why i do what i do.

Ya it makes it more clear.

Revolver closed with a psychedelic freak-out? So does Sgt. Pepper, which closes with "A Day in the Life."

When commenting about these reviews by hyperboleking, I am trying to only comment about the review itself, trying to be completely biased to how I personally feel about the album. This review was 10X better than the "Nevermind" review and I have yet to read the "Black Sabbath" review. But when you mention that Sgt. Pepper's lacks originality, the point you provide is referencing how they used "Revolver" as a stencil for the line-up of songs on this album. What about the the composition, production, mixing, lyrical content, etc? Aren't those the qualities that determine if something is original or not?

This album is fairly overrated, but should be given a 3 for A Day in the Life alone

thats not the only point i made to support that sgt pepper lacks originality. i also said it a. was not the first concept album (this needed to be stated because it's conventional wisdom that it is) b. its drug references weren't revolutionary at all (contrary to conventional wisdom again) and c. one of the most often cited things about it its original cover art; i agreed that that is original, but not in a way that matters at all because having 10000 pictures on your cover and some cutouts doesn't have anything to do with the music its self.

First off this was a huge improvement from your Nirvana review.

You made some interesting points in this review but I think this album is very original for its time. Sure, this might not be the first concept album ever released but that doesn't mean that the musical content wasn't original.

This one was actually posted before the Nirvana review. And I think it was unoriginal because the lyrical content and ideas were basically everything everyone else was doing. Of course, everyone else was doing it because they were copying Revolver from the year before. But the sitars, the psychedelic sound effects, the drug references etc. were nothing knew. The Beatles had already built that skyscraper. Why did they feel the need to pull out old tricks and even worse, old tricks everyone else was copying? It's also worth noting that the "flower power" imagery was not the Beatles idea; this was of course a copy off of other psychedelic of the time.

ahhh the controversy took place as i expected, thie review was well written and we seem to all agree that revolver is the better album, so why the agruments guys?
