Errrrh, this review whilst written well (besides the many grammatical errors/over use of the word 'bland') is so off the mark, you clearly didn't grasp the creativity and intelligence of this album.

Opinions are a bitch, eh?

What is wrong with you people? This isn't the single worst review I've ever read... but it's pretty damn far from being well-written. Check out some contrib. reviews for well-written.

It seems like a lot of people are just trying to stick up for the little man here.
|

just because his opinion is outspoken and differing and you don't wanna look like a d-bag doesn't mean you have to say "... but good review and pos" when it's actually really shitty.

It's not so shitty that it should be negged. If this was written in exactly the same way but about Nickleback or Aiden he would be getting pos'd and all kinds of agreement. The issue is that he shit on a band that everyone seems to like and they're all finding any little reason (or no reason at all) to neg and talk shit.

This honestly isn't even marginally well-written. Look at the fucking wall of text that is the second paragraph.

Opinions aren't the issue, he's allowed to dislike the album. But if he dislikes a certain style of music, regardless of quality, then he has no qualification to be reviewing it. His subjective opinion holds no weight if he can't appreciate the music's objective components.

He has a single idea that he repeats over and over and simply applies to each song (blandness). The same thing could have been said in a succinct manner and not been so wieldy. Also, he's missing so many key aspects of this music it's not even funny. I know I come of as a dbag typing this, but the guy himself basically admitted he has no ear for subtlety, nor indie music for that manner... + typos + grammar issues + redundancy + contradictions, etc.

This arguement has been brought up before, and nowhere does it state that someone can't voice their opinion of a whole genre through a representing album. I'm not even trying to defend the guy as much as just... well, fanboy responses bother me and there are plenty here.

That's shit. If someone can write a quality review of something that doesn't necessary jive with them, good on them.

^That makes sense

yeah my response is better :p

The whole thing is just average written-wise and misinformed content-wise.

ha ha, I missed that somehow:
He has a single idea that he repeats over and over and simply applies to each song (blandness). The same thing could have been said in a succinct manner and not been so wieldy. Also, he's missing so many key aspects of this music it's not even funny.

I agree that the issues that he has with the album are repeated for just about every song and he could have been a little less redundant about stating those issues, but it wouldn't normally cause people to neg the review. He may very well be missing key elements of the album and that would explain his dislike of it, wouldn't it? There are a lot of people with no ear for subtlety, etc, and I guess this review is for them. My main point is the reaction based on his writing skills wouldn't have been like this had he written about something that no one gave a shit about.

As much as I love this album I can totally see where he is coming from even with a bunch of minor details.
|

haha thanks ; )
and of course the reaction would've been different. 1- he made a list telling everyone one he was going to do exactly this 2- it's honestly not like there's a big backlash, negs- yes, but who cares about those? I'd be willing to bet there's more comments that say "good review" than "bad"
I'm just saying that people who neg'd had good reason, even if they only ended up negging cuz of the rating anyway... if that makes sense. and as for the negative attention, lol, I gaurantee you that was the main pt of the review.
