I like most sounds. Only thing I really don't care for is country. Everything else I listen too and judge whether or not I think it sucks.

fair call, it's not for everybody. Once you grasp the altering rhythms and can predict the dynamics i find it to be enjoyable.

If you enjoy, than I'm all for it. Keep listening to it.



Also, I got review in mind for a moderately good deathcore band. Probably get it up tomorrow or the next day.

Agree with the sentiment but still review needs work. Also there's nothing to understand musically about this band. If someone doesn't like them tough shit.

The problem with this review is that you use quite a few words to say absolutely nothing meaningful. Check this out, for example: "Song goes nowhere" what exactly are the grounds for a song "going somewhere"? I'm not trying to be overly pedantic here, but all you're really saying here is just that it isn't your thing.



Trying to justify it with eye-rollers like this: "He doesn’t do many different things through the song." and the above just make it look like you're talking out of your ass.



Also, I'm not one to really pull the "you don't get it" card, because the music either speaks to you or it doesn't, but when referencing one's technique and talking about songs on a songwriting level, one would expect you to have at least a rudimentary understanding of what's actually going on here. Your writing in this review doesn't hint at a lick of that.

Shin: Fair enough, I guess. I'm still fairly new to the reviewing, so I'm trying to get better as I go along. I'll try and take you're advice for the next one I do.

very poor review my friend, I suggest you learn about a little thing called flow cuz this writing has none of it. I prolly wouldn't like this though so i agree there.

It's still there, but my opinion change from that. It did get better. Might as well delete it for real.

Controversial opinion! The review is okay - you articulated your concerns in an understandable

manner (though you could have done better for reasons others have mentioned). Personally, I found the

songwriting here to be very creative because, as you mentioned, the piece goes off into so many

unexpected directions. I did not,

however, feel that it was "boring."

I'm not going to read it because I'll give biased feedback if I do, but just glancing and skimming over it, it does look awkward

Like I said, I'm pretty new to reviewing music (this is only my second review) and I'm trying to get better at it. This is, personally, a bit of a step-up from my first review.

When you said they do the same thing in every song, for instance, that's not something you should say

without providing convincing evidence that that is indeed the case. I know you said that in the

comments later, but regardless, I hope that doesn't pop up into your reviews without some proof.



If you listen to Chaosphere and then listen to Nothing, you should be able to recognize that those are

two totally different albums with radically different approaches.

Advice!: Re-read the whole damn thing. It's full of typos and awkward sentences. Don't complain that people don't give you feedback when you couldn't even be arsed to proofread your own review.



"The moment where is something different is where he does this kinda whisper-yell voice, if that makes since."

"The second ambient section I want to pay special attention too."

"It doesn’t help that the riffs are mostly comprise of riffs [...]."



Really?

Fixed the first and third one. I have no idea what's wrong with that second sentence.
