It is now.  It wasn't then.  Tongue

Ah. Anyways I assumed it was The Weirding even though I know nothing at all about Astra.


Great album with fantastic compositions.

Knocking poor TGM: Orb off the list (again- poor Rob!).  LOL

Well, maybe if his reviews were 9000 words long each... Confused LOL
Oh thanks i was wondering about that - Nice to be a part of the team. I may even review your album next to celebrate....ShockedShockedShockedLOL


Couldn't you just...have a cigar or something?  Embarrassed
OK just for you. LOL Just reviewed the debut from Astra - a gushing loving review. I adored it.


Which Astra?

Oh I understand what you are saying believe me. I dont call that spamming, I was genuine in my approach to discovering what people think are the best albums of each year.  It took me a lot of research over a few days before I actually posted any and then I just posted them one after another. No harm done and getting a good response overall.
 
Cheers for your comments too. From now on I will do as you suggest as I agree that you need to space them out on the polls or it clogs them up a bit. Of course I wont be doing that again as its way too time consuming and I want to focus on actual reviews.

Thank you very much for the replies. If I become a PR I wont have time for spamming - altho its only in the fun section and we all do it.

If you slip me a 50, plus another 50 for my contact, I know someone who might be able to help you out.  That's Euro btw.  Wink
 
Seriously, PM one of those admin-type dudes.  And ask. 
I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

A. Stop spamming topics for post count, that increases your chance of getting past the 3 star mark. B. You apply. C. Good job! 246 reviews is a lot, and someone like you is probably more than needed!

Do you get asked to be a prog reviewer or do you request and be evaluated for reviewing...
 
Just wondering as prog reviewing is becoming a part time thing for me on this website and I would not mind becoming an official reviewer one day.
 
I am a teacher of English at College but I have the time to write a lot of reviews outside of work. It would be a pleasure to be a prog reviewer on my favourite website. I have written about 240 reviews and will write a lot more as I get hold of more music.
 
thx for a great website anyway.
