This is one of those bands I want to see break up just so that we can make a stop to this silly deathcore trend!

Couple quick fixes:

Wormood II: Breakdown Boogaloo

Missed a "w" there, fella.
All together = altogether in the context you used it (there is a difference between the phrase and the word)
There are a couple sentences which are a little wonky in agreement, but they're not a huge issue. Just something I'd say you should consider for next time.

Overall, this is probably your best review of all the ones I've read and I actually thought it was pretty good, so I'm gonna throw you a pause. The only other thing I'd mention is the following:

Ha, now the band’s actually getting somewhe- oh, never mind, another breakdown.


I get that you usually go for a more informal style, and while it generally works here, this part, in particular, is just a little too snarky, sarcastic, and unnecessary. I just feel like there's a better way you could have written it in. That's not to say you can't do it without style - just that this was a little too over the top.

But so are lyrics like “You spread disease when you spread your legs, time to suck today’s dick. I hope you choke on it,” so there's that. (period at the end of that sentence should go inside the quotes, btw)

Agree with Calc about the summary, too.

I also wrote a song called "Our Lady of Perpetual Sorrow" when I was angsty and 13. This is not a
joke.

I've got a lot of friends who go absolutely nuts for this band and I just don't see it. I'm gunna check out "The Dead Walk" again since it's the only album I have by them atm, but maybe I'll check this out too. Vincent loves playing the Worcester Palladium though so I guess that's pretty cool. (I'm from Worcester.)

This is a good review man. POS'd.

The Acacia Strain have always been terrible, in my opinion.

Thanks, Atomic, I'll fix those couple of little errors. And I agree that my summary reads a little awkwardly, I'll try and find a better way to rephrase it.
