Album Rating: 2.0
This album comes out tomorrow so i thought i'd post this.
I'm trying something new with this review. I've never written a short review and i'm pretty nervous about how this will be received. I'm not asking you not to neg if you think it's poorly written, I just hope you guys realize this is a new venture for me and could maybe give me some pointers on how to write 'short' reviews

Awesome review. Short, to the point, and has a good flow.
But dawg, the summary has an obvious, glaring error.

Wait. There was an error? Damn. I thought it was just a bad summary
|

Yeah you said "Where you expecting anything else?"
Still not big on the summary, but eh, it's just a summary and it does indeed summarize your review. Still, great job.

Thanks for the pos though. Which one was do you like better? I hate doing summaries

I'm not sure how I feel about this review.
First off, your claims about metalcore are pretty abrasive and unrealistic. That first sentence in particular is frustrating, because a) ANY metalcore review these days begins with something identical, and b) there's good metalcore out there. Sure, the genre's littered with shit like this, but that doesn't mean you can just say "Why even bother?"
Also, you harp on its monotony for most of the review. Brief reviews should do more than pinpoint a single flaw. I think you'd be better off at least switching the angle at some point, looking at it from a different perspective. Admittedly, you have promising lines like
"Fit For A King have crafted an album that takes itself entirely too seriously"
but then it goes back into making points you've already emphasized.
This isn't an awful review by any means, but you're certainly capable of better. This reads like it was a little haphazardly written as a whole.

summaries are honestly my favorite part of doing a review lol.
|
| |
"Fit For A King create a record we have heard before."
Fit For A King created a record that we have all heard before
Just as an example. The verb tense on is improper.
|

Sorry, I should have been a bit clearer - the summary was fine but there was a "where" instead of a "were"
