I came across this review which is not a review but a forum subject.

 BTW: the same review is ppsted in both album reviews,

HÖYRY-KONE — Hyönteisiä voi Rakastaa

Review by tja_to_eller_tre

4 stars — I've had contact with Jarno Surkula (memb. of the great Höyry- Kone and (now) Alamaillman Vasarat (great aswell, of course)) , and the long sold out two records from Höyry- Kone is in the planning of getting a rerelease on the small label; Wolfgang Records.

I suggested that I could help him put preasure on the label and encourage them to actually do so. This is a great chance for everyone who missed out on them last time.

So I wondered if you guys could help me with having people send NICE emails to Hannu Leiden, head of Wolfgang Records : [email protected]

and make 'em confident in putting it out.

Please state this on your site, please spread the word, I know this is good news.

(if other questions on this campaign please contact me: [email protected] ).

thanks

Simen

(Hi sorry progarchive this is not a real review- but I really hope you respect it's content anyway, this is the little man against commerce)

1. This guy [his first review I see] only uses caps to emphasise a point on a couple of lines - in my opinion, such poor grammar reflects badly on the site - I realise many people are not writing in their native language and we should therefore be tolerant but I feel this is quite fundamental.

2. a little more than halfway down there is an offensive phrase [ there may be others - I didn't read the whole thing] -

this is the kind of track that's a lot of fun to watch somebody do live but isn't so much fun to sit at home and listen to......until about the 3 and a half minute mark, anyways. we are at this point treated to about 7.5 minutes of purely instrumental jammage, which is butchered only by the editing incompetence of rick rubin, that slimy b*****d. nonetheless, if i could get an hour of underwater guitar effects in place of an hour of screaming blixler......man.....that'd be sweet....

KANSAS — Leftoverture
Review by Enserune_Sparks

5 stars mon tout premier 33 tour,je m'en souviens comme si c'etait hier. j'avais bosser tout un ete,pour pouvoir m'offrir cet album. à mon avis ,le meilleur album rock progressif de tout les temps. j'adore tout l'album,mais une petite perference pour 3 morceau,que j'ecoutes en boucle. _miracles out of nowhere _cheyenne anthem _carry on wayward my son. mon seul regret,c'est de ne pas avoir pu voir kansas ,sur scene..je ne pense pas qu'il soit passer du coter de la france.. si je me retrouve sur une ile deserte c'est certainement cet album,que j'emporterait. ;)

Just look at all these reviews posted by seamusdog21, freedomfire5, infandous:

http://www.progarchives.com/Review.asp?id=96184

http://www.progarchives.com/Review.asp?id=95966

http://www.progarchives.com/Review.asp?id=95870

http://www.progarchives.com/Review.asp?id=96114

http://www.progarchives.com/Review.asp?id=96016

http://www.progarchives.com/Review.asp?id=96112

http://www.progarchives.com/Review.asp?id=95872

All of them are posted almost the same dates. And what about the same “boring, boring, boring” by “different” reviewers? Somebody realy hates the group.

Don’t you think that sometimes ratings with reviews make much harm than that without reviews?

One more reviewer: superfloyd2 . Obviously he likes one particular band, but really hates other greats.

@ Guigo


you always say handling on, a better English phrase would be "dealing with"

handling on is awkward phrasing


Don't hate me just trying to help. Embarrassed
back from the dead, i will begin posting reviews again and musing through the forums

Translation:
 
Hi!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm Chilean and my name is Carlos C, in first place I want to share my opinion of the band and how I knew them: It was in the night and was sleeping then it was 3:30 am, I look around and find my father in my room with some DVD's, one by Stratovarious and another by Dream Theater, I woke happilly and plugged on the TV and DVD and placed the DT first, it was Live and Tokyo/5 years in a live Time, and from then I couldn't stop listening the best music I ever listened. the dvd is excellent really Dream Theater for my is my life, each song is like the feelings I express...................for that reason............................."LONG LIVE FOR DREAM THEATER"
 
Sorry, I couldn't do any better with the translation because it's poorly written even in Spanish, the punctuation is placed randomly and the use of capital leters is not existing.
 
Not a review at all, a fanboy scream of love.

I'm reporting two reviews by member jalas (jose alas), regarding Fripp & Eno's Equatorial Stars and It's A Beautiful Day's self titled album. lousy two phrases, both situations.

(not to believe that I hold grundge against him for saying Tangerine Dream are boring over at one topic)  LOL
