Decided to get rid of my ratings so i could re-rate more appropriately. Now when i rate, I'll include a sound-off with each rating. Here's my first 8 new ratings | | 1 |  | Abandon All Ships!
Abandon All Ships!
Rating: 2.5//Much like contemporaries Attack Attack! and This Romantic Tragedy, Abandon All Ships! often fall victim to the pitfalls that oft make their fellow bands near unlistenable; repetitive breakdowns, a lack of originality and a sever lack of musicianship among many other things. Although this short EP does feature a few bright moments, most of your time spent listening to this will make you wish you weren't. | | 2 |  | Addaura
Addaura
Rating: 4.5//Another band coming from the Cascadian black metal scene, Addaura's debut demo is a masterful exercise is slightly folk tinged black metal. Featuring the excellent shriek of female vocalist Chantal, amazing atmospheres and non-traditional black metal lyrical fare, this is a release that is not only worth your time but leaving you hungry for more. | | 3 |  | Agatus
Dawn of Martyrdom
Rating: 4//Much like the other bands in Hellenic black metal's first wave Agatus does not carry the rawness that was common in most 90's black metal; instead the band concentrates on a mid-tempo pace and elegant keyboard arrangements. Not as fierce as their Norwegian counterparts yet still a great album and worth checking out, especially if new to the genre. | | 4 |  | Aguynguerran
Perverting The Nazarene Cult
Rating: 4//Aguynguerran's first full-length is not one to be underestimated; combining black metal with elements of melodic death metal, Perverting the Nazarene Cult features awesome riffs, great solos and some surprisingly catchy moments. Great record for both hardcore and newer fans of the black metal. | | 5 |  | Aguynguerran
Horde Of The Antichrist
Rating: 3.5//Delving much further into the roots of black metal then their 2009 full-length, Hordes of the Antichrist is still an above average black metal demo | | 6 |  | Ahulabrum
The Transitivity Of Strangeness
Rating: 3//The Transitivity of Strangeness isn't really an album you get on the first listen; a dark, murky production mixed with fast tremolo picked chords and strange (even for black metal) vocals, the first experience with this album may be enough for some. However, upon repeated listens one begins to strangely appreciate the how intense and fucked up the album really is. Musically nothing revolutionary, but an entertaining listen for those who truly enjoy raw black metal. | | 7 |  | Profanatica
Disgusting Blasphemies Against God
Rating: 3//Profanatica is all about the blasphemy; decrying religion at almost every chance they get, if any devout Catholic heard a minute of their 2010 opus Disgusting Blasphemies Against God (or even just heard the title) they would probably declare some sort of Armageddon warning. Musically, the band plays a pretty raw form of black metal, yet nothing really new. Definintely more enjoyable when in a certain mood, yet for the most part this is just another average black metal release with above average lyrics of blasphemy. | |

08.24.10 | Also figured I'd do Sputnik a solid by adding every band on my ipod/that i come across that is not already in the database, to the database | Counterfeit
08.24.10 | thx spirit. ilu | East Hastings

i've been formulating a review for them for awhile now, just gotta force myself out of this reviewing slump and it should be up soon | coneren
08.24.10 | Can't remember if I've heard3 or not..I think it was on my to listen list | East Hastings
08.24.10 | maybe one day if you go through with this the whole way, ill bump every one of your soundoffs | BigHans
08.24.10 | Needs moar Clutch - Blast Tyrant | jingledeath
08.24.10 | thought about getting 7 but i have too much on my hands so i passed. get on rym man, the database on their is so much better. | TheSpirit
08.24.10 | 7 was pretty good and seems like it could possibly be a grower. I plan on listening to it at least once or twice more in the future. And yeah I've been considering getting RYM for awhile now, may take the plunge soon. | Relinquished
08.24.10 | I'm in RYM | TheSpirit
08.24.10 | def gotta go there then | ButcheredChildren
08.24.10 | funning thing, Abandon All Ships used to go to my school -.- | TheSpirit
08.24.10 | Despite the fact they are total electronicore (or whatever the kids call it these days) they have some cool parts in their songs. Most of it is really average and boring though. | 8bit
08.24.10 | Awesome idea man. Abandon All Ships ugh... | ButcheredChildren
08.24.10 | why couldn't Threat Signal fucking go to my school, I think even Justin Beiber would be better, even though he lives like 40 minutes away from me | Maniac!
08.24.10 | East Hastings

08.24.10 | you guise | Zion
09.08.10 | Somewhere I have a text file with the code to delete ratings (you could paste it in the address bar)... I really hope I can find that damn file. It was helpful. | TRMshadow
09.08.10 | Good idea with the longer soundoffs on each new listen. It really helps getting into an album by giving it even a tiny review. I'll do it too. | parksungjoon
