We are warned before using 5 stars - shouldn't the same apply to one star ratings. I reserve 1 star ratings for discs that I use as coffee cup coasters.


I love DT, but the new album IS a coffee cup coaster. I happen to really like coffee, so I got the three disc edition, see?

In general yes, but not when somebody comes along and sends up the rating process.  He was not questioning the review's quality, he seemed to be suggesting DT cannot be given a 1 star rating in general...and regardless of likes or dislikes that's wrong, it's quite possible for someone to not like the best music album in the world, whatever that might be and he should be allowed to post his review.

Yeah... I'm not defending DaveTheSlave... I'm defending DT... so, if he wants to change the form of the rating, well, it's his problem... I'm here to argue about music... not ratings...

Good for him, I took in all of 15 seconds and the effect isn't the composure or the lighting or the focus (all of which I am well versed in), it's the comedic effect

I didn't made this thread, and if you notice it, this thread is about your reviews Pablo... you should open up a thread  before you make a review... surely it will be a succesful one... and we should change the name of the thread... should be "Mariah vs Tarja"... I think is better to argue about that topic... Big smile

I like the symbolism of a Pink Floyd coffee mug on top of Black Clouds.

I never liked DT , perhaps never will so I will never review it. I feel the same about country, rap and various other genres I cannot get into. Its like asking a vegetarian to critique a steakhouse, basically non sensical!
On the other hand, if there is an album that hurts your ears from a band that has in the past made ace albums, well.....Mind you a one star rating is pretty dismal (I think I have 2 in all = the Magic Pie debut and Zyclope ) . One shoud not feel  supremely guilty for 5 star or 1 star ratings if they are justified and explained, there are enough prog denigrators out there
I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

Huh?! I should open a thread before writing a review? Confused Dude, what is in your mind?!
 
BTW: it's not about my reviews is about one single review that some couldn't accept it.

My opinion: it's not totally bad but nothing great either...don't make it your first DT album, that's for sure.
