Album Rating: 2.0

No problem, I know that my first review is not very good and the writing may be strange, but I think it will improve in my next reviews.

Not saying the Pikes albums are bad (hell, Look Up There is one of Bucket's all-time greatest works), but I doubt any of them warrant full-length reviews. They all mostly follow the same format and appeal almost entirely to his loyal fans. A sound-off here and there is fine, but I don't think you're supposed to think too deep or pick apart these things like each one is an attempt at a magnum opus.

I mainly review one if it rubs me the wrong way enough for me to bother to bring up Word and write up my thoughts. Also, I stopped checking them out lately. They either bore me or piss me off.

I love how my Slug Cartilage review is picking up ghost negs lately.

I find it funny that by the rationale displayed in your first two reviews, it's fairly evident you know exactly what you're in for when you listen to the Pikes albums, argo "same old riffs, same old shit". Yet you review this nonetheless. And end on the same notes.

This really isn't necessary, and ultimately just comes across as you wanting to vent at Bucket again for the sake of venting. Anything you feel you gain from this is mere fiction, unless that gain involves clogging up space on the front page reviews.

^I'd have to disagree with you, I actually enjoy/find use in reading people's opinions on the pikes albums so I know where to look for his more quality material. Just because there is a high quantity of music doesn't mean he's not allowed to write his opinion about it.

^ Agreed

Some of the albums are good, some aren't. Interestingly, it seems like the poor ones are the ones people have decided to review on here. The FREE Twisterland that just came out is pretty sweet.
