not even trying to be a complete dick but seriously what is there to defend here?
there's little to no description of the actual music and the review is full of stupid opinions, unbased statements treated as fact, and unfunny half-assed attempts at humor from start to finish

WOW shitstorm of butthurt. my whole point was to make my review at least more entertaining than this EP (because it's boring af). if i failed woops. and yes i included plenty of valid criticism? this isn't a troll review.
"One flaw with the EP is the flagrant use of autotune on Carter's voice. While used in moderation, it is unnoticable; however, used as it is on a few of the songs here is certainly obtrusive."
if i wrote a review like that it would be BORING. that's my point. plus i was already bored from listening to the music on this EP so i wrote like this to entertain myself. seriously did most of you even listen to the EP???
thanks for the pos btw user

first off, no one's 'butthurt' about your review
"my whole point was to make my review at least more entertaining than this EP"
that's where you fucked up. it didn't come off as more entertaining, it came off as even more obnoxious than the EP.
"yes i included plenty of valid criticism?"
no, you didn't.

If you think this kind of "writing" makes reviews more entertaining well....you're just fucking wrong. Your job is to review the album so review it. Don't attempt failed humor constantly all the while basically slandering the band because you hate it. A review isn't entertainment, it's informative. Inform.

"A review isn't entertainment, it's informative. Inform."
... not necessarily. I mean, yeah, inform, but don't tell the guy that being entertaining is a bad thing. I mean, he doesn't succeed in that aspect, but being entertaining means more people are likely to read your reviews. you could be the most informative writer on the site, but if no one enjoys reading your stuff then it kinda defeats the purpose of it.

here's what you could gather reading linearly through my review. a guide to my points through the obnoxious unfunny humor:
1. the song choices on the ep are horrible
2. the songs are all in this boring r&b style
3. this is a tyler carter ep, not an issues ep
4. nothing interesting musically happens on any of the songs
5. "disappear" features the best vocal performance by tyler carter
6. the guest on "tears" has a great voice and is well placed
7. "diamond dreams" is listenable - mixing "princeton ave" and "her monologue"
8. "never lose your flames" is ruined because of neck deep's singer guesting on it
9. neck deep's singer has an awful voice
10. too much autotune
11. tyler carter's rapping is hilariously bad
12. songs like "king of amarillo" and "hooligans" are ruined and turned into generic sugary top 40 pop with no intensity at all
13. some of tyler's lyrics are cringeworthy
14. at least it didn't include michael bohn, probably would have made this EP worse

Christ, if I wanted to choose between masturbating to a crucifix or skimming through this review day and night, I'd pick the former. How stiff and humorless.

yeah I do think you can entertain through a review but when he utterly fails at it and spends more time trying to be funny than actually informing, there becomes a problem. Informing is still the number one pursuit of reviewing imo at least.

I know, just be careful when you give criticisms like that. It can be pretty misleading. It's like when people say "avoiding being too personal in your reviews" yet guys like Alex Robertson and Channing Freeman are 2 of the most popular reviewers on the site.

"Informing is still the number one pursuit of reviewing imo at least."
see, that's your opinion. personally i'd rather read a review like mine than some boring informative one highlighting the points i mentioned. clearly im in the minority though. shit at least i got people to feel something (even if it's hatred/aggravation) and care enough to comment tbh

that is a bit of a weird double standard in hindsight

i'm not gonna sit here and argue with you over your review being bad.
defend it as you may,
1 of 14 thought this review was well written

13 people have opinions that my review is bad, and 1 person has the opinion that my review is good. you're right, you're not going to convince me that my review is bad, nor was i trying to convince anyone that my review is good; all i was doing was addressing the unjustified (imo) criticism of it. sorry but the majority doesn't dictate what is good or bad or right or wrong.

You might want to take it into consideration though.
Please do not continue writing like this just to spite people, it will end badly for everyone.
|

the thing is I looked over your other reviews which received similar criticisms that you refuse to acknowledge and work on.
"the majority doesn't dictate what is good or bad or right or wrong"
maybe not but
You might want to take it into consideration though. [2]
