ITT: List of Reviewers no longer active!

So this stumbled across my mind, as I modded through Sputnik today: When I came across a review by 'hybridofsound' I remembered that there are quite a few reviewers (and real good ones too) that are no longer active. So, in order to bring the reviews 'up-to-date' (Add track listing, cover etc if not present) I would like to ask for your help.

If you know of any reviewer that is no longer active, and has left behind quite a few reviews that deserve attention, let me and Med know in this thread. I keep a list in this first post with the reviewers and their status.

Please give a possible link to one of the reviews or the reviewers profile!

Reviewers List
  • hybridofsound (done)
  • Bartender (done)
  • brycey (done)
  • Death to Pop-Punk (done)
  • Zappa (done)
  • The Joz (done)
  • NachoChez (done)
  • RollerQueen (done)
  • manuscriptreplica (done)
  • Per Ardua Ad Astra (done)
  • Orbdragon (done)

Bands List
All bands done, providing their name begins with a symbol, A, or B.
All bands beginning with T done, up to Testament.
Britpop done.
Post-punk done.
Black metal done.

I'm no longer active in so far as I'm not reviewing any more, and none of the 40-something (all but my William Shatner one transferred from the CD Reviews forum) reviews I have on there are properly formatted.

I'd edit them myself, but my moderator controls have disappeared. Feel free to contact me for help on any of them.

Thanks guys. Like I say, I would've done them myself, but death to my moderator controls has occurred. Here's some links for artwork that (I assume) you couldn't find ;

[url=http://www.the-blueprint.net/images/ecliptic-booklet-front.jpg]The Blueprint - Ecliptic[/url] ([url=http://www.w-fenec.org/rock/photo/the_blueprint_ecliptic.jpg]here[/url]'s a smaller one, if that other is too big)

[url=http://www.the-blueprint.net/images/001coverbig.jpg]The Blueprint - zero*zero*one[/url] ([url=http://www.the-blueprint.net/images/Blueprint-EP-front.gif]smaller[/url])

[url=http://www.metalpesado.com.br/GRAFICOS/wallpapers/wallpapersyahoo/images/blasphemymadeflesh.jpg]Cryptopsy - Blasphemy Made Flesh[/url] ([url=http://www.displeasedrecords.com/images/bandimages/cryptopsy_blasphemy.jpg]smaller[/url])

[url=http://www.the-blueprint.net/images/phenomenlogy-front-smal.jpg]The Blueprint - Phenomenology[/url]

[url=http://www.my-multi-media.de/catalog/images/big/dhr_empire_inteligence.jpg]Alec Empire - Intelligence and Sacrifice[/url]

The Alec Empire and Cryptopsy ones already have artwork in the reviews, but these are different in some way; the Cryptopsy one I've linked to here is the original cover art, whereas the review has the re-release from about eight years later. The Alec Empire review has a bit of the artwork from inside the booklet, rather than what is seen from the outside. I hope these images are okay for linking; I'm not sure what the size restrictions or anything on sputnik are.

Yeah, it didn't carry over the Shatner review. I don't think I'll bother reposting it though.

For a number of people (like The JoZ, for instance), I planned on writing reviews on top of theirs, while incorporating the tracklists, album covers, etc.

Would this be okay or no? I have four reviews in queue, I just need to add finishing touches and other personal quirks

If you feel like reviewing the albums, feel free to do so. But if you want to do it just for adding the cover and track list, I would rather prefer it if you name the reviewers and we rework it.

But of course. My intention wasn't trying to step on your guys's toes here

I should have clarified my question: for albums that have already been reviewed but are lacking album art, tracklist, etc., may I write a review while also incorporating the album art, tracklist, etc.?

That's just what I wanted to know, really. Again, I wasn't trying to undermine either you or Med's authorities here.

If you feel like it, sure. mx programmed the system so that there can be multiple reviews of a single album.

And, after all: Your reviews have always been a great addition to the site. Looking forward to 'em.

BTW, have not recognised you at first, I connected your name with the dog avatar...

Okay, I tried going back, but I couldn't do a album picture upload or a tracklist for my new review... if you guys could do that, I'd greatly appreciate it.

EDIT: Never mind, I figured it out, sorry. Feel free to read the review though and give feedback

/shameless whoring

You know, my dog avatar is going to have to make a return, because everyone isn't very pleased that I changed it... oh well.

Actually, you know what...

[url=http://www.sputnikmusic.com/profile.php?memberid=64660]The JoZ[/url]

No longer active, so if you could add ratings/cover art, that would be great... considering I thought I was going to write additional reviews to his own, but none of the others seem to grab my interest.

Have fun adding and such

I don't understand what you guys are doing. Are you doing what I already did to my reviews (adding tracklists, and album art as well as reformatting the review and adding stars)?

You're 100% correct

A lot of the reviews by those guys are good, real good. And to spoil it by the lack of tracklisting and artwork is not necessary

themightyquinn23. Banned, I believe. He reviewed a few of the RS albums. I see to remember him having another account, too. Maybe without the 23?
