And most of it's not even bm, lots to get from it. I'm sure it caused a total backlash with fans with how different it was. I'm sure Kyle Ward's review had some effect too.

Yeah it's no secret that staff/top reviews can polarize averages. Just look at the discrepancies for Children of Bodom between here and RYM.

Marrow was a huge grower for me. I don't think it's on the same level of the first 3 but it's still a great album

Yeah Kyle's given some pretty buns-ass scores, but he's definitely not on the same level as the Mike guy who 1'd The Blackening.

Blackening is overrated though

I know Stagno mostly from his power metal reviews (Gamma Ray etc) so I'm kinda not surprised he hated that album. It's Somebody (Mike?) Green or Greer, who appears to have changed his first name, that irks me with his 2.0s of Crack the Skye and From Mars to Sirius.

It is. You don't have to 4+ it, but 1'ing it is stupid.

2'ing Crack The Skye and Gojira is also pretty dumb as well.

RYM isn’t crap at all. In terms of community it’s not the best but that’s not what it’s about.

As a database it works better than this



But I'd use discog if that was its only purpose



Sputnik is better on everything else

I use RYM more than this site these days as RYM’s strengths are more useful to me now and less time consuming than Sput’s.

Totally subjective





But I find RYM to be such a soulless site

I find Sputnik's ratings line up better with the overall reception of albums. There's some really squashed and skewed album numbers on RYM due to whatever snobby forces govern that place.

“RYM is a joke.”

Like how is it? If you don’t think RYM is ten times better than Sput for finding music and as a database for cataloguing and/or rating you must have basic as fuck taste.

They currently have a Fleetwood Mac review under the new releases on their homepage. That's pretty damn cutting edge.
