I concur, pretty rock solid argument here.

The strangest thing about it is, why writing such a, erm, review, for Dethklok now? To me the show, and the band behind, were typically things from the 2000s which died with them. Just checked their page on the main site out of curiosity, and except a 2017 review from hells_unicorn the most recent ones are from... 2014. Almost ten years.

I mean, I love Metalocalypse and Dethklok, but even I can agree that they're a product for their time, though I'm kind of crossing my fingers for a nostalgia boom of the show.

Both peculiar reasons for a criticism, considering the song itself is two minutes long...

Eh, honestly can't remember, but it was a pretty obscure release for sure.

They submitted another one that was about as much of a mess formatting-wise but I forgot to save it.

I read ALL CAPS as shouting so this just stresses me out a bit.

Haha, I think I stumbled upon it some time ago. What was that again?

Disregarding The Satire of The Art - 65%
Kratopsis, May 19th, 2023

Disregarding The Satire of The Art and lyrics this album overall is a rather okay listen, it definitely holds up as a one man black metal project. This album has really basic, yet good instrumentation, and this has a very relaxing atmospheric feel to it and that makes this album more unique but lyrical content I can't relate to but that is just a minor complaint.

The albums instrumentation is a basic, yet nice composition it has a relaxing tone to it. People give this to much crap for this being ''Reddit user black metal'' I find that rather ignorant because yes a black metal project about anime and um well fetishism
which is ridiculous indeed but that is not what they should focus on, but I digress back to talking about the instrumentation it has a basic simple black metal sound which something some people just want to jam because that's what it meant for.

Now lyrically this has no mean than to me that this a joke album, and which I find lyrics very important to describe a important event per-say but all this tells me maybe the artist needs to have a better relation with his parents ,but disregarding me dumping on the lyrics just for being degenerative is just a joke on me, but on lyrics I don't care for i will admit that they do add a nice disturbing tone to the album, well if you didn't understand them it would.

This album overall is a great listen to if you disregard the themes of it, and to be honest it is rather hilarious to read the lyrics. I high recommend this album for mainly friends who like anime and some heavy metal to get them more into it.

That's... kinda painful to read.

Also, a timeless comedy classic:

Somewhat of a weird album choice, to say the least.

It's 2023, I thought we were done with the "Ligma Balls" meme :scratch:

One question, do people who send that kind of stuff as a review get any kind of punishment? Just to be clear, I'm not asking because I'm thinking of doing it :lol:

As far as I've seen, a rejection with a warning is enough to deter them. But if the offense persists, then by all means the user is bannable, I guess.

Yea. Once is a 'haha okay, write an actual review', two times is 'alright stop this' and a third time I'd definitely flag the user for a warning or ban or something. I've never had someone send shit in a second time though.

Speaking of shit...

The first reviewer must've confused MA reviews for Youtube comments, and the second one felt like it came from the 2000s era of MA reviews.

Yeah something that's become abundantly clear is that whatever you want to say about MA's current standards for reviews, my god they've come a long way from the earlier days of the site. Granted, that review seems like it would only have flown in the 2002 to 2005 era but still.
