 | elephantREVOLUTION no problem man. i'm just glad to give it to someone that will actually use it. you don't have to upload stuff but it really helps out your ratio if you do. they have a whole section of rules and how everything works
|
| elephantREVOLUTION from the dark depths that is what.cd. would you care for an invite? i have a few lying around but u gotta be able to seed.
|
 | JokineAugustus Its seems like Doomsday's come early this year!!!!!!! m/
|
 | Atari you should be on the facebook group now
|
| Atari sup i sent you a request on facebook but i can't tell if I invited you to the group or if it went through as a normal friend request lol
|
| Atari kk just be patient might not have time to add you 'til my lunch break this afternoon ;)
|
| Atari lol what's your facebook name?
|
| Atari it's cool. yes there is a melting album facebook staff group : P
|
| Atari one small thing your post is under uncategorized but it should be under news, streams. U also want to tag the link so people can find it on google, etc. ;) U have the option to do so when u edit your post
|
| Atari Lmao not the most convincing vote but I'll take it!
|
| Atari Lol you're the one who doesn't want to use Facebook :P everybody else is voting thru there so I'm collecting votes from the non Facebook staff. I guess I could email u but that seems like even more work lol. So vote please :3
|
| Atari Lol looks like u got it figured out ;) hey we're doing a site vote old layout or new? ( I'm assuming u saw what the layout looked like before yesterday) so yeah cast ur vote! Also don't be shy to add input for site suggestions.
|
| Atari lol it's just a learning experience man. i think there's a site tutorial somewhere on your dashboard. but how about you just ask me specific questions for now? ;)
|
| Atari will do. you'll notice you have your own blog but make sure you're signed into the actual site when you post something. ecnalzen accidentally posted his first review on his blog lol
|
| Atari well do you mind just sending me shouts if you have questions for now cause i don't want to email back and forth lol. i'll get you added under the staff page do you want me to use your real name or just the username you have on the site (or both?) let me know your preference.
|
| Atari check your email also
|
| Atari deleted. are you gonna get your facebook set up through the site too or do you want us to just contact you through email/shoutbox if you need something?
|
| Atari have you got an invite to be an author yet? what's your email address?
|
| Atari Lol only the cool people ;)
|
| Atari no i'm saying you didn't even need to submit an application. you should have just said to him or me " yes i want to be staff" :P
|
| Atari lol if you filled out an application. pretty sure we were gonna just put you straight through if you wanted to be staff
|
| Atari lol um i didn't think you wanted in? i'll let him know!
|
 | Shimana Peace'd Out is a RX sideproject? know any other similar ones?
|
| Atari also, i recently complimented your new review so i don't know why you think i'm just saying that lol you know you're a good writer don't be modest
|
| Atari no i'm not lol i should have asked you a long time ago i completey spaced it. anyways it's entierely up to you but we're working hard to get promos from bands so you'll be getting at least some free music at the very least. we also need more writers that don't just review metal and you fit the bill perfectly.
|
| Atari I second ipod's offer. You'd make an excellent staff writer!
|
 | IpodMastery http://meltingalbumreviews.wordpress.com/join-our-team/
|
| Atari Dude your last review was crazy good man
|
 | RinaKettysamour well if you put my name on it i'll pos regardless of content because im narcissistic like that[2]
|
| Atari yeah i like sacrifice even better and that one's like satanic jethro tull lol. i think progressive is becoming my new favorite genre
|
| Atari **** yeah hope you like it. i'm kinda obsessed with them ever since i heard them lol. also like jethro tull, horslips, fuzzy duck, sweet smoke hehe been proggin
|
| Atari and please listen to black widow - black widow. prog 70's rock with sax, flutes, organs and just a classic rock feel soooo amazing
|
| Atari whatever lol i like you more than lakes anyways think what you want
|
| Atari one more thing: lakes isn't getting special treatment. if you made an album, i would be just as open-minded and creative about reviewing it ;)
|
| Atari or i was honest AND considerate :P . honestly though you said it's terrible and i disagree. the second half of the album is better and like i mentioned in the review it's for the patient listener. on another note, that perhaps band rules gonna listen again. you should check out black widow's self titled album
|
| Atari and what's that? lol my score is what i actually think i mean MAYBE it'd be a 3 if i didn't know it was a user made album :P
|
| Atari be nice to lakes he's special ;) lol
|
 | Scoot you deserve a mojito
|
| Shimana what a way to hijack a show with one song lol
|
| Shimana yea i've heard of them, they're great. listened to a bit of that song but haven't had time to listen to the whole thing.
|
| Shimana strawberry girls LP is out btw
|
 | TheDarkestNight I'm not returning to sputnik, I'm only on here to post articles about my friend's band *ZT* - Snide
|
 | MuhNamesTyler Yeah I haven't, I will definitely give them a listen. I tried Take One Car but couldn't really get into them much. (My b on the late reply, thought I already had)
|
| Atari thanks again buddy i appreciate the support as i'm sure there will be some backlash too lol
|
| Atari thanks man :) yeah i asked jom if there was anything i could do to help me become a contributor and apparentely all i had to do was ask lol
|
| Shimana Well, i found them on their fb page @ /treebeard. They initially released a 'demo' EP, but their most recent EP is supposedly those same songs that they chose to sell this time. So you should be able to find the demo for free somewhere, or even the EP. They sound exactly the same to me.
|
| Shimana I would say that they are like ALLB and Hail the sun. Their instrumentation and lyrics stronly resemble HTS, but their songs can be stretched out like ALLB does. It also adds a post-rock element to their music. Definitely one of those more elaborate post-hardcore bands.
|
| Shimana glad you like it. stumbled upon them and other unknown gems on bcamp, great site for fresh music.
|
| MuhNamesTyler Twinkly emo or post hardcore, preferably new bands but it doesn't really matter. Or whatever really
|
| Shimana have a look at the band Sunrise and Ammunition, you might like them.
|
| MuhNamesTyler Haha that's cool. Hey you got any recs for me?? I haven't found a "new" band worth listenin to in a while
|
 | Cygnatti Yeah, I saw the vid a while ago. I had mixed feelings the first few times I heard it tbh. I usually dig the hell outta everything they do though.
|
| Atari Cool yeah I was actually listening to act 2 earlier and I liked it better than their new one
|
| Atari Why? Lol I'm open minded I like almost everything what's their best album
|
| Atari what's your favorite dear hunter then? migrant just sounded kinda boring to me sorry : (
|
 | talesfromthevagina http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRmQyN8CU8Qdon't know if its your kinda stuff but it always get me in a good mood
|
 | AtomicWaste I think it's just a little too heavy for me right now, but yeah, I can see its merits haha.
|
 | WhereSleepIsRest hey man, you werent kidding... Sleepytime Gorilla Museum is some whacked out stuff haha, pretty interesting for sure.. thanks for the rec
|
| Atari I have to wait until there's a stream I don't download leaks lol
|
| Atari Well technically I've heard 2 of the songs? Is there a stream then or did it just leak? I'll definitely be down to review it
|
| Atari Dude I haven't even heard it yet fool lol
|
| AtomicWaste Thanks man. I gotta check some more of your tastes (unless you have some specific recs) since you always seem to like the same stuff I'm really into.
|
| Atari well **** don't you just have me all figured out!
|
| Atari well as tacky as it may sound this site means a lot to me it's a big part of my life now. there's nothing i'm more passionate about then music so if i'm gonna be an active part of the site i might as well try to get along with everybody that's the way I see it.
|
| Atari well as long as you don't think i'm an attention whore :P
|
| Atari haha fair enough. i think i'm just too nice sometimes on a site full of assholes lol
|
| Atari dude i don't want to argue either lol. i was just trying to be honest. would you rather me not tell you if i thought your comments were coming across as dickish?
|
| Atari you seemed a little defensive on that list. I'm on sputnik way more than you so believe it or not I see most of your comments. : P
|
 | FourthReich yo what game is your avatar? I played it in elementary school and I can't remember the name.
|
| elephantREVOLUTION i'm actually really digging that stolas album. those first 2 tracks they released are like the weakest on the album
|
| Atari i'll check out your dig later tho
|
| Atari i don't want skeletor getting all butthurt about me talking about him behind his back so id them lol
|
| Atari i know man lol jut saying
|
| Atari oh haha i just saw you making fun of skeletor's review earlier and it's not beneath him to use his army of alts to neg your reviews to hell lol
|
| Atari lol you better be careful or skeletor is gonna make you his next victim.
|
| Cygnatti I knew I could count on your blackness! :D
|
| Cygnatti hey, calc. :3 I know that you and your obviously black self would love this! :D http://fitzandthetantrums.bandcamp.com/album/pickin-up-the-pieces
|
| MuhNamesTyler Hey have you heard Pentimento's self titled?? If so you should definitely give it a rev
|
| Atari so apparantely you liked what i added? lol you are a man of few words.
|
| Atari k cool i'm about to play some devil may cry myself.
|
| Atari SUP CALC this is the last time i'll bug you lol. but i added something to the second paragraph and added a 3rd paragraph to the senses fail review to talk more about the music. let me know what you think sir
|
| Atari "It?s going to take more than the mere spark of a match to burn the wreckage of Buddy?s past , and what better to fuel the flame than the most furious guitar work and drumming the band has ever spawned?" ;)
|
| Atari If u check my new review and tell me if it has more personality than my last one I will be eternally grateful ;)
|
| Atari no worries man just making sure it wasn't me but thanks again for your feedback and s***
|
| Atari are you sure overkill has a new album that leaked? a new album hasn't even been added to the database
|
| Atari Ok thanks for getting back to me. My latest review was actually part of a review a random album game so that could be part of it. Anyways i'm glad you told me you think some of my reviews lack personality hopefully it will help me grow as a writer.
|
| Atari thanks man here's a review i did for cannibal corpse. i'm hoping it might have a little more personality than my other reviews but if not please be honest lol. any other criticsm or suggestions would be appreciated as well...http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/52921/Cannibal-Corpse-Butchered-at-Birth/
|
| Atari it's cool just been looking for ideas for improvement. do you mind if i link you one of my reviews and you can tell me if you think it has more personality than my others?
|
| Atari lol i'm just wondering why you waited so long to tell me my reviews lack personality or whatever. if i remember correctly you even commented on my very first review so you could have told me sooner why didn't you?!
|
| Atari i was being sarcastic.
|
| Atari thanks for the response
|
 | atrink Thanks for telling me about K Sera. You're sure you don't want to review it first or anything? lol
|
| Atari so you wait until i write 65 reviews to tell me that they lack personality? lol could've used that information sooner bro
|
 | apert yeah, not really experienced with indie at all, will give it a fair go though
|
 | CK We are supposed to inform the person who got the album someone submitted that they are going to be reviewing that album, so I am just letting you know that you were selected for my submission, Ghost of a Chance by Turboweekend. I am excited to see your review, as you have a pretty sexy looking pie chart :D
|
| Cygnatti you like zelliack, bad rabbits, and venetia fair? impressive :o
|
 | andcas sounds like head automatica, mcr, and motion city soundtrack had a kid.
|
 | Willie The number one thing that you can do is try to be consistent in your review quality, include new releases and stay out of trouble. For most of you, it wasn't a question of quality... it was maybe a question of quantity or site presence compared to some others and there were only a limited number of slots.
|
| Atari yeah i knew that staff and contribs had a lot of say in who got promoted but i didn't realize to what extent. i'm done bitching about it though whatever. hope you plan to keep on reviewing :)
|
| Atari more like bulls*** lol i thought his application was a joke!!!
|
| Atari yeah i'm happy for trebor and necrotica and a few others but the whole thing is pretty much fixed. super grover(romulus) has written 3 reviews since 01/01/2012. i mean lol how does that make sense?
|
| Atari Sorry u didn't get contrib man u honestly deserved it more than several of the people that were promoted. there are seriously like 2 people that were promoted I've never even heard of
|
 | MetalMan97 Intolerance is like an allergy, so im allergic to idiots.
|
| MetalMan97 Dude, I don't get offended by idiots online, thats like flipping out whenever someone passes by you, I can't stand stupidity like the people who say swag
|
| Atari oh and DON'T forget to check out those 2 ataris songs on my last review i posted the links in the first comment. If you don't like them no worries but it will take 10 minutes of your time you should at least check them out!
|
| Atari In fact IMO you're a better writer than me but i'm pretty critical of my own writing.
|
| Atari Don't be so modest you've had several reviews featured you're a good writer. and i'm not sure who's saying you have s*** taste but if it's silentpotato or alchlahol or intothes*** they're all elitist morons anyways.
|
| Atari No problem man. It logs you out automatically after submitted the application for some reason. good luck buddy
|
| Atari Lol no i haven't heard. That kinda sucks but atari hasn't been developing that many great games these days. my name is also Atari because i like The Ataris but i do have an old atari system
|
| Atari Oh damn haha well even so when I was 24 I wasn't that into metal it just happened
|
| Atari maybe some day you will. if i remember correctly you're 22? when i was 22 i wasn't listening to anything but pop punk and post hardcore lol
|
| Atari i think i've heard like one song by them but that's it. will do man. people forget how much music there is out there hard to hear everything!
|
| Atari I've never heard he is legened either lol
|
 | SadAndHolyGlow Great taste, my friend. I have to check some of your faves out.
|
| Atari heh got any reviews coming up?
|
| Atari lol you're such a smartass. All i meant was fight club is an awesome movie and i wasn't expecting the book to top it. I was like junior high when that s*** came out
|
 | 8bit That would be pretty interesting. I've only heard TCS and Act 2, a bit of 3, so I'm sure I'll end up being a fan-boy eventually, it's all just so damn good.
|
| 8bit That would be unreal if they released some new stuff, too bad they're done. When I wrote "they", I was thinking of putting just "he" since it makes way more sense lol wonder if he'll keep going with the Act:1,2,3 theme.
|
| 8bit Hey man, I saw that you like The Dear Hunter, what do you think of Receiving End of Sirens? I'm stoked for the new album this year, not sure how they can follow up Color Spectrum.
|
 | sailSAway yes very! how come sputnik hasn't started the hype train yet?
|
| sailSAway Calc! how did you kno i dig the technical s***!
|
 | tread311 If you never found it I have Day to Live by Chronic Future right here. Enjoy. http://www.mediafire.com/?z2e6cjt49pm1lk9
|
 | DixieNormous Do you and you're wife share an mp3 player or does she have her own?Also, do you think David Gilmour is a better musician than Roger Waters?
|
| DixieNormous I have that as well, but I dont use it anymore. Where did you get yours at and how much did you pay for it, broseph?
|
| Atari lol i'm working on a bing crosby review. do you like christmas music?
|
| Atari It's alright is that their best song?
|
| Atari Hey resend me that link I accidentallyd it
|
 | Calc yeah its the internet i don't believe anything most anyone says
|
| Atari he is man from what he's told me before
|
| Atari ha i've never had a problem with him i've always been nice to him i just don't get it lol
|
 | Exhorder ok fair enough haha. and im not a freako, im just baiting her-shes an obvious troll lets face it. but out of kindness i also have to embrace that perhaps she might be legit and therefore stick up for her. so yeah im white knighting to an extent but im uner no illusions-i think its a troll aswel
|
| Exhorder Reporting me for baiting an OBVIOUS TROLL haha. i thought we was buddies
|
 | DABS UNWRITTEN LAW LOOOOOOLLLLLL BBBAAAHAHHAHA
|
| Exhorder true haha! arguing with snoxall already tbh
|
| Exhorder im chill as anything i just think Joms a bitch atm haha :P having fun getting all my comments and ratings back off souleater acc
|
| Exhorder lol fair enough haha i dont even know how people know its me by now lol.
|
| Exhorder how does my perosonality show in my comments haha (got banned on souleater again)
|
 | ViralOblivion Check out my movies list if you think everyone's movies lists suck lol
|
| Cygnatti basically, I just like them enough for dat 4/5 :3
|
| Cygnatti well they deserve it from me so why not?
|
| Cygnatti listen to this band, Calc. these guys rule and you'd probably really like them, except that they get compared to La Dispute a lot but these guys don't suck like La Dispute does so yeah. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8PpcsmyM7U
|
| ViralOblivion Good good so you liking halo 4? I've played a bit online but no campaign yet
|
 | sixdegrees thx for the tune, that was pretty good. Love me some skramz, as you can probably tell.
|
| sixdegrees yeah I'm a sadomasochist, but even I have my limits.
|
| Atari yeah that's pretty much all i've been checking out is death metal and thrash from the 80's and 90's but did you notice i got my ratings wiped for fun? haha my taste has changed a little so i'm curious if my pie chart will turn out different i had like 1600 ratings before.
|
| Atari I hear you that's cool. I've just been catching up on so much old stuff it's hard to keep up with new releases too lol
|
| Atari you mean the flagged review? well i've reviewed several albums that already had reviews but mine was flagged so it's still the one that shows up when people click on that album. no pressure :P just letting you know if there's a review for an album and you can write one better you can always ask the mods to flag it
|
| Atari Is it because you don't think you'll get as many readers? I've actually gotten more comments on albums that already had several reviews than my reviews that didn't have a review :P
|
| Atari cock and ball torture? lmao
|
| Atari yeah i'll try to review something that doesn't have any reviews from time to time (did it with several thrash albums) but i just like to review what i love. i don't care if an album has 50 reviews lol if i want to review it i'm gonna
|
| Atari yeah it's cool you review so much obscure stuff, but if there's an album you really love that's more well known that would be cool too :P
|
| Atari haha thanks you too man I really do like your reviews keep them coming.
|
| Atari yeah figured might as well edit my comment no need to start s*** there's enough drama going around lol
|
| Atari Did you like my save? lol
|
 | bach Your recent 1s remind that i have more pornogrind bands to 1.
|
 | OmairSh The song isn't bad, might check their stuff. Btw the rpoland channel has some pretty good musicians, I heard Van Larkins' Honey and a few other good songs and had to subscribe.
|
 | ASnideRemark Calc, I'm talking to skele on facebook, I can assure you that skele isn't souleater.
|
| Atari Oh lol whatever he annoyed the s*** out of me last night wouldn't stop posting in my shoutbox.
|
| Atari yeah i see that now so darth is myrthmfoxxxy or whoever? lol who else is he?
|
| Atari Darthmann thinks i'm skeletor lol either that or he's trolling me
|
 | twlichty dude. that review is so awesome, everyone in the band is really stoked and happy about it. thanks for your help man!
|
| twlichty Thanks a ton bro, you write great reviews and Sputnik is such a good place for exposure. were stoked to see what you think of it!
