Not that I think this band is talented, but the writing is the worst thing about this album.<br /><br /> "Saying that they are generic is really just kind of saying that Victory Records signs generic bands"<br /><br />That's called a blanket statement and it's also presuming a lot. I have given good reviews to bands on Victory records. Fortunately this band is not totally typical of the label.<br /><br />"Try and play along with it, if you play an instrument. I'm going to take a good guess and say that you cannot."<br /><br />I do play an instrument. So obviously you cannot figure out the difference between and good and bad music and you are not much of a good guesser either.<br /><br />I am all for hearing differing views. Instead of telling me why you liked this band you tried to call me names and make false assumptions to ease the pain you feel because you can't accept the fact that someone disagrees with your opinion. Grow up.<br />Thanks for stopping by and adding to my hit count though.

I bet he can't <i>play</i> as well as these guys (though I have yet to hear them). However, his inability to play the music isn't even remotely relevant to his ability to discern things like originality, creativity, etc. How many great rock writers have also been stellar musicians? I can't think of a single great guitar solo played by Lester Bangs or Robert Christgau, but those guys knew/know music and they often hear things that elude everyone else.bob_vinylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08414008312753058491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13852175.post-53387263708276337392010-03-08T11:36:20.064-08:002010-03-08T11:36:20.064-08:00Hmmm.

I think that you should appreciate the TALENT for what it is, despite the fact that you dislike what the CD sounds like. Try and play along with it, if you play an instrument. I'm going to take a good guess and say that you cannot. You probably think that Into The Moat are generic too...

I never said the band was awful, just that one of the points made previously was often a euphemism. Hmmm.<br /><br />You're correct that Metal Mark knows a lot about metal, but, despite knowing him for years, I never knew his knowledge was fed exclusively the metal plate background image. Thanks for making that clear. I love to read smart comments like that, especially from people who stand by their words with a name. Every time I see a bitter anonymous comment, I wonder if it's really someone from the band. Why else would someone get so worked up <i>and</i> refuse to show their identity?bob_vinylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08414008312753058491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13852175.post-68352421693619201782009-08-27T03:54:54.011-07:002009-08-27T03:54:54.011-07:00anonymous (first one)-They have a talent for putti...anonymous (first one)-They have a talent for putting out the worst album I have heard in 2009 so far.<br /><br />anonymous (second one)-Oh my goodness I have been told that I am of the wrong opinion by someone who judges how my blog looks.

I have just recently come across them, and am so happy that I did. Secondly, bob_vinyl, if you haven't even listened to the band...go fuck yourself.

Grow up. You obviously get all red in the face when you read something that disagrees with what you think. Different opinions are fine, but you throw a fit and use name calling to make yourself feel better. You throwing a tantrum and trying to attack me still doesn't make this a good album.
