And um, Bron-Yr-Aur, I don't know you, but I know that you're respected and whatnot, but seriously, shut the **** up.
You amuse me. Eh, fine. I'll let you kids go at it.
Edit: And metallicaman, shut up. You're even more biased for Metallica than he is against it. It's fine if you don't like the review, but quit leaning on bias as an excuse.This Message Edited On 08.31.06

...or maybe he just doesn't like Metallica?
Goddamn, you guys look way too much into this stuff.

Thanks Bronny. I don't like aruging with you. you're smarter than I. Not to mention my fondness for you makes arguing no fun.

Exactly my point. How can you really consider this a review? A reviewer's job is to give a detailed, non biased report on the album in question, not just bash a band they dislike, and have all their little buddies jump in for the fun. Seriously, you guys are pathetic.
And honestly, just the fact that you need to have a warning at the top of your review to warn readers that they shouldn't take your review seriously should hint at the fact that this review is more than unnecessary.
Bron, you're not witty.

The warning was put in place because of some of the jokes, not the entire review.
Learn to read.
[QUOTE=]I read it. I also chose to ignore it. it's fine to have jokes in your reviews,
but I found most of them lame, so I felt like saying something. Furthermore, after
reading what that guy said about your album ratings I went and checked them out.
You SNABK by Atreyu a 3 (or 3.5, can't remember now). Atreyu have just as bad of
vocals as metallica, the musicianship is bland. Pretty much everything is mediocre.
the only that it has that beats this album is preduction. I'm aware that, that's your
personal opinion and there's nothing I can do about it, but it also leads me to
believe you are extremely bias, more bias than I perviously thought. [/QUOTE]
If you're going to ignore that then don't blame me for the jokes. Also, Atreyu were
really my very first metal band I listened to ever, before I knew really anything about
anything in music. It's kinda hard for me to give it an extremely low score because
I'm still partial to it, but I'll sit down and listen to it later then possibly change my
rating, but the lowest is probably 2.5. And also, may I just say fuck
you also :p. It is my opinion, if you don't like them fine but don't blame me for
saying I like them even if the majority of people don't, then use that against me as
if it means something.This Message Edited On 08.31.06

Who said I was making an attempt at witticism? You're an angry fellow, you know.

So that explains why you like A7X so much :lol:
(SARCASM DUH)
This one is better than your first, so I'll vote. But I still think you need to calm down on the whole Metallica bashing thing. Saying 'this sucks' or 'he sucks' in a review (I might've done it in my 'Far Beyond Driven' review too, so dont worry) isn't the most professional thing, and professionalism is what us amateurs want the most on this site I feel.
K...I've got 5 minutes left before I gotta go...I'm going on a commenting spree...see ya all on Sunday I think...

..and to think I just left a complimentary comment for you. I don't think I'm really that biased. I've given a lot their early albums fives, true. I actually tried to change this to 4.5 earlier today, not sure why it didn't work. Anywho, but Load and ReLoad only got 3.5's and St. Anger got 2.5. Those ratings are pertty much in sinc with most Metallica fans.

Nah, I'm actually quite the happy camper. This review just frustrates me. I mean, how can people actually give this a positive vote? It is blatantly just a bashing of Metallica. He obviously had no desire to intelligently inform people about the album (an album which he shouldn't be reviewing in the first place, considering the amount of reviews it already has, the absurd popularity it already has, and his apparent strong bias), so what purpose does it serve?
It baffles me how so many truly well written reviews go completely unnoticed, yet this gets instant praise from so many.
| | | Album Rating: 2.5
It also gets instant and far more fierce criticism.
And Metallicaman, nothing personal. Frustration, perhaps woth everyone using bias as if it's a legitimate excuse. And yes, you are biased for Metallica, in the same way I am for the Beatles. But you can't say bias is a bad thing in a review. If it had been biased in favor for it no one would have a problem.This Message Edited On 08.31.06

Oh, so people saying their is positively nothing wrong with this can say that, but the opposite view is wrong. And I did put in info on the album, if you don't believe me, READ THE FUCKING REVIEW.

5 or 6 votes isn't really instant praise. So, that comment is void, or something.
| | | Album Rating: 4.0
Um no, because I have many negative comments about this album as well. I feel it totally falls apart after Phantom Lord. The point is that you are clearly biased against Metallica, so you have absolutely no right to review them. Just as I, who is clearly a Metallica fan, will never review a Metallica album.
And regardless of exactly how much praise it may have, the fact remains the same. There are so many great reviews on here that are only even looked at 30 times.This Message Edited On 08.31.06

hey does anyone remember how Damrod got pissed off at everyone when that Viking wrote the MOP review cause there was so much stupid argueing. I dont think this is bad so far, but don't cross the line.
| | | Album Rating: 4.0
I didn't say anything about the Norma Jean album because I've never heard it, nor know anything about it.
The point is, I really am not a huge Metallica fan. Replace Metallica with any other band in the world (that I have at least a small amount of knowledge about) and I would still have the same problem. This is not a review, it is just him bashing Metallica, and that fact is clear in the fact that he's given countless albums ratings of no less than 4 (save for one), and then there's his two Metallica reviews, both of which he's given 1's on. I mean, is that not glaringly obvious?

Yeah, but as long as it's on topic there's really nothing wrong with an arguement.

This is a review. No matter how much DV is biased against Metallica, he backs up his points well. And not that it matters, but DV rated a good bit of albums below a 4.
Prepares for my Norma Jean review to be bashed to hell in 3... 2... 1...

All right, Mr. Drunken Viking, you've already smoked these guys once. Isn't that enough? You really bewilder me when you say all the riffs sound the same, because that just simply isn't true. The riffs sound a lot less alike than those of most other bands, and it almost seems like you're just trying to get attention.
| | | Album Rating: 4.0
I wasn't singling out anyone, I was questioning how anyone could consider this review well written, when it is clearly biased, and holds no true merit.
This album already has more than enough reviews, some with low scores, so there was never even a need for this in the first place. It's just senseless bashing, and I think it's ridiculous.

I\'m just gonna end the convo now (unless of course you reply with something
dumb :p)by saying this, I clearly hate Metallica, you don\'t. I have my points, you
have
yours. Lets stop arguing and crapping up the thread. k?

Oh jesus no :lol: I still have to do RTL and AJFA. :lol:
I'm not doing it for attention, I'm doing it because all these albums have no reviews
below a 3.5 or so, and that's bs. If someone else would like to help me with this
whole review '80s Metallica thing that'd be nice though.This Message Edited On 08.31.06
