Best review ever (its for Burzum's "Dauði Baldrs"):


Burzum is good - 35%
Written by helldark on August 6th, 2008

Hello, it is an excellent group BURZUM pity that this Varg Vikernes in jail.

what they most admire of BURZUM is the style of Varg Vikernes, is that the plays all the instruments, or the program on the computer, but the same does not fall easily, as others because they are soloists will not fall and continues with its projects.

And not had the opportunity to hear this album, Dauði Baldrs but I suppose that will do just as good as are all of BURZUM.

for me the best album for my BURZUM filosofem is therefore not being the most leave, goodbye and long life to the metal

Well I personally loved the review. I'll have to review that one soon and express what a big monument to nothing it is. Although that would entail listening the thing again... So. Much. Filler.

I agree with the filler part, but there was some stuff on the album I enjoyed At most, personally, I'd probably give it a 70 or 65. What do you plan on giving it?

40-50, I think. It's awkward and generally doesn't work. A smattering of great stuff but generally way overblown.

One for Death SS's Pain.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
review of - 80%
Written by NadsokoR on August 21st, 2008


It's hard to put review of a single, other thing is, that album wich that single comes from is the worse album Death SS made Ever, time they lost somewhere between inspirations of Marylin Manson and total drug addict ... Single Version of Pain is Ok but nothoing special, too much electronic, not enough guitars, nice voice and singing (as usuall), second, Remix of title track is completly CRAP! Some bloody Psyhodelic techno shit, thing that every metalman trying to stay away from similar things during whole life. Only good thing that comes from that Cd is the last track, "Crazy Horses". That nearly 3 minutes nice song could be a track even from Do What Thou Wilt, or Pain, It's Fast and a bit Heavy, with nice keyboard work, and really good guitars... It gave me hope that they are not completly fucked up as a writers, and there's a chance they gonna make something good, and they Did "7 Seals" but that's a story for another review...
For single rate is 0, for cover art 80 and same for "Crazy Horses"

Funniest thing is that those lyrics fit exactly with the verse of 'Love Bites' by Judas Priest.

For Magnanimus's Storms Of Chaotic Revelations:

Quote:
Chaotic Death Metal - 93%
Written by Mutilate_the_emo on September 1st, 2008

I first stumbled upon this album in August 2008 borrowing it from a friend. I was amazed to believe that this was recorded in 2006. This album has that old-school death metal style that kind of reminds me of Morbid Angel. But it is Brutal and dark as fuck. The first thing that astounded me with this album was the extremely fast drumming. Pablo Clares definitely knows what he’s doing in this album with 250 bpm blasts and technicality. The guitars riffs are fast and remind me a little bit of stuff like Hate Eternal or Nile. I really enjoy the vocals, they are heavy but are a little bit raspy and old-school sounding. The Bass pretty much follows the guitar in most places, Which isn’t too bad considering the bass player also is the vocalist.

Libation Of The Din-Gir Xul 9/10

This song is fast and dark with some cool short solo’s.

Storm of Abomination 8.5/10

This song is Extremely heavy and it has a bit of double vocals in it.

The Wrath Of Absu Storm Lords 8.5/10

Good Song

Enfamous Race 10/10

My favorite song on the album. Impossible drumming.

Unchaining The FeverSand Plagues 9.5/10

This Song starts out with a slower pace and intensifies as the so goes on. Also has a chaotic Morbid Angel like solo in it.

The Eternal Flame Of Ekur 8.5/10

This Song is about Ekur the king of Assyria in 1064 bc. Another Awesome song.

In War Against Yahur 9/10

This Song has my favorite solo on the album.

Aeonic Implosion 10/10

Crazy solo. Sweet Drums. Brutal riffs.

74/80 = 93%

Beautiful Array of Chaotic Drumming and and a Barrage of Brutal riffs. I enjoyed this album quite a lot.

The Best Produced Album They Have Done All Around Everything Comes In Clear And Does Not Sound There Older Stuff Where It Is The Same Rift Over And Over Really If You Can't Say It Is Not A God Like Album Then Don't Listen To Metal Really Cause You Have No Idea What Your Talking About And The Whole Thing That Orchestra Is Lame Or Overrated Then You Really Don't Know Your Roots The Is Great On All Aspects And It Tops There Musical Capablities.

"Rift" is probably the single worst piece of metal-related Engrish ever. Hundreds of times worse than "trash" or "solows."

For Epiclore's Into Demise and Victory

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Damn, it impress me two times! - 100%
Written by jej on September 5th, 2008

This album sound very well, the best album for me. I like long songs as expedition! I recognize this work, and I think: to produce symphonic metal is very difficult, mainly when are real symphonic instruments and independent records! The lyrical themes is very good! These music's retract a happiness, not the dark like common band, backing vocal is good, and the timber of main vocal is impress me! The visual of band is bad, only the man as left is appropriate, and the logo of band need to be better, not much, not as bal-sagoth or rhapsody of fire, but to need... I'll listen more about the 2008 album and will write new review.

the music’s
1. the back vocal working with main vocal has impress me; with class, happiness and lot of symphony
2. the effect slow-fast with long notes in vocal is a good technique
3. this is a WONDERFUL, great symphony as very long songs, I like it, is unique in my collection of long songs
4. the snare is a signature of this band, and this music represent this

I unknown about the art work says
And the change of name from edevaour to epiclore is a good change!
...huge favor: never split-up the band! If possible, maintain your official page updated, bye everybody of greatest BAND!

Why do I get the sneaking suspicion that this fellow has never actually listened to this album and is doing this just to piss people off? Well, regardless, this little troll dropping gave me a good laugh, almost as good as the album it's praising did.

For Enthroned's Tetra Karcist.

Quote:
Maybe even their best album - 95%
Written by Milos on September 7th, 2008


After the departure from Sabathan I didn't know what to expect from Enthroned, because he was always one of my favorite vocalists, but once again Enthroned proved that they are an elite black metal band. With Sabathan out of band there are no more original members left in Enthroned, but Nornagest is the main composer since Towards The Skullthrone Of Satan, so there are no big changes in their sound. Probably many people will not agree with me, but I think Tetra Karcist is maybe even the best Enthroned album up to date.

Without a question Tetra Karcist is the most mature release from Enthroned ever. Everything sounds just perfect. In the biginning I didn't like Nornagests' vocals, but after some period of adaptation I realised that he has done excellent job. Guitars are great as always. All riffs are good, guitar solos are better than ever and everything is perfetly put together, I can't complain about anything. Production is the best this band ever had. It's clear, but not overpolished. The whole album is great and it's hard to pick a favorite song, but when I want to listen just a few songs instead of the whole album I usually play The Burning Dawn, Through The Cortex or Vermin. On limited digi-pack edition there are two bonus tracks. I don't know why they are not on all versions of the album, because they are also as good as the rest of the songs.

If you liked this band before you will also like Tetra Karcist very much. Maybe some people will miss Sabathan, but as I said it only takes a few listens and you will probably like Nornagests' vocals. At least I did. All in all, Tetra Karcist is one of the best releases in 2007, so if you like this band or black metal in general you should not miss this release.


Not even that bad. Except...

He CLEARLY meant to say "in the big inning," which would be a perfectly acceptable baseball analogy.
