Why review an album that came out TWO YEARS AGO?????


Dude, he can review whatever the fuck he wants

Just...no.

Dude this is the 00's, everyone steals music.




Your whole comment was made invalid with your pathetic final statement. In the 1930's, lots and lots of Germans killed Jews. Did that make that ok back then???????

STFU and GTFO. I did say the guy was entertaining. He should review again but on bands hes more open minded about

It's the truth, the majority of this website is a big fan of the 'try before you buy' policy, and I

don't see how it made my comments invalid. After all, anyone can review any album they want, if it

came out 2 years ago or 40 years ago it doesn't matter. And Halo, Wolves and A Farewell to Arms, while

good songs, are nowhere near "better than the 98% of the metal ever made".



STFU and GTFO.

Invalid because you support the theft of good music. Your other comments were fine o/

The comparison was more for the "well everyone else is doing it" mentality that I was questioning, rather than the acts themselves. As you must have worked out yourself surely??

If I'm unsure whether I'm going to like a band/artist then I will download an album of theirs. If I

like it I download more, and if I really like the band then I will buy the albums. If they deserve the

money I have no problem with buying the CD.



I'm not gonna buy Brokencyde's album for example, because thanks to music 'theft' I know it's a shit

album, and they don't deserve my money. However I have no problem with buying dredg's El Cielo, seeing

as how it's in my top 5 all-time albums.

I reviewed a two year old album because I didn't actually listen to the whole thing until before I wrote this review. I was completely honest when I said I got the album because of Aesthetics of Hate and just listened to that song.



Also, if you had looked at my profile, you'd know I don't listen to pop punk. Death's Human Album is regarded as the band's finest work and none of the songs are over 5 minutes. Slayer's Reign in Blood is considered a defining Thrash album, and most of the songs are around 2.5 minutes.



I'm trying to offer a different style of review than an overview of each song, which is why you probably thought it wasn't "professional." I'm not getting paid for this. I'm just writing to express my opinion of this album, and my opinion is that most of the longer songs on "The Blackening" shouldn't have been as long. Like I said, there's a difference between making a song long with progressive elements and just padding the length of a song to extend it on purpose.

Metal-Archives has this as post-thrash/groove. Post-thrash is basically groove.

Lol Machinehead isn't that bad, the vocals for me are just a bit off putting, you either hate the vocals or you love them.

I listened to this again for some reason. Now I lay Thee Down and Aesthetics of Hate were pretty good. The rest of the album sucks monkey balls.
