YES — Close to the Edge
Review by greg lake (bruno chiappino)

3 stars Mira, la primera vez que yo escuche el close to the edge yo ya habia escuchado el fragile y ya no era lo mismo porque en ese momento yo consideraba el fragile el mejor disco de rock progressivo. El tema close to the edge es muy progressivo pero los otros dos yo los encuentro muy cursis y con muy poca instrumnetacion y pocos arreglos de guitarra, pero lo que es indiscutible es que todo el disco tiene espetaculares frases de bajo que alguien jamas alla escuchado. Para mi el disco no es el mejor del rock progressivo pero sin duda es indispensable en la coleccion de un fanatico de yes y del rock progressivo. por eso mi puntacion no le va a ser muy favorable ,,pero va segun mi opinion a respecto del disco.

(or simply erase it because it's a 3 star rating. Clown)

RADIOHEAD — Kid A
Review by Guardian

1 stars A total crap, like most of alternative rock, either! I cannot understand how someone can give it 4 or 5 stars and at once give IQ or Pendragon such rating - must be an absolute musical ignorant! I've never heard such boring and stereotype music before. There's absolutely no melody or harmony at all! Crap, crap, crap, one must say who has at least a little sense of melody and harmony.

So for the next time stop bothering with such comments as "it's a piece of art" or even "progressive masterpiece", otherwise I'd have to laugh at your poor brain! It's a garbage I'd create in a while just by mixing a simple bass line with drums and a few synthetic sounds. If you like REAL music, get your valuable hands far away off this crap!!!


this is not criticism or reviewing of any kind, this is just arrogance.

Guardian review deleted. Angry
 
Psychospaces reviews under observation... apparently he enjoys giving only 1-star rating (is he a masochist that buys only albums he doesn't like?).
 
 
EDIT: some repeated posts here will be deleted, ok fellows? Embarrassed

YES — Fragile
Review by Paco (Francisco Diaz)

5 stars This is a masterpiece too, because inside you can find Roundabout, South side of the Sky, Long distance runaround, Heart of the Sunrise, and The Fish, Mood for a Day, Cans and Brahms, We have heaven and Five percent for nothing. It is not enough? You can hear it every day, and avery day. Is a well compensated album. Perfect performance, good lyrics, and a very large etc.



--------------------------------------------



Um, good job, you can read a tracklist.

Is this one really appropriate? Too much bad language, and not that constructive in my opinion. The reviewer also encourages people to download the album.

DREAM THEATER — Scenes From A Memory Metropolis Part II
Review by Deepslumber (Rafal)

1 stars It was the first DT album I heard. And I got to say this - if this is prog than prog is dead, if this is metal than it's not so good either. I don't like prog metal bands (beside just few), and for me Dream Theater is just terrible. The songs are long, but who cares? No feelling in this, no emotions, only playing. Perfectly playing, even too perfectly. One of the song titles of this album describes it well. Fatal Tragedy. Album like this are killing prog. Don't buy this album!

Is there an actual REVIEW anywhere? Just ramblings about how this is the end of prog and his dislike for the album, but where's the opinion? I think this is too low on content;

DREAM THEATER — Images And Words
Review by rushingmusika

4 stars hhhhhmmmm....

im quite sure that James LaBrie's voice might be a mixture of Robert Plant (Led Zepellin) Bruce Dickinson (Iron Maiden) Peter Cetera (Chicago) and Glenn Russell (Air Supply)

while Charlie Dominici is a mixture of Geddy Lee (Rush) John Arch (Fates Warning) and Def Snider (Twisted Sister)

Reading the text it seems he's bashing DT but the 4 stars surprised me. Anyway, it's gone!

IRRGARTEN — Home and Sanctuary
Review by ferock (felipe)
yo no sé, pero se parece haber una fuente sin fin del prog de la alta calidad que ha salido . Resistente para descubrir cualquier cosa sobre esta venda a excepción del refrán del Walker de Greg que suenan como los muchos de Marillion y de IQ.Like de las vendas de Quebec tienen muchos de músicos de la huésped, y además de los instrumentos generalmente hay un poco de violoncelo, sax y flauta. La “mirada en este mundo” tiene cierta guitarra y órgano y muchos traviesos de cambios del humor. Los vocals son en inglés y son grandes. El “sitio reservado” se abre con el órgano y ofrece un riff fabuloso de la guitarra. Este individuo sabe tocar una guitarra melódica. “En el laberinto” está mi favorito. Las líricas no pueden ser cualquier cosa escribir a casa sobre pero la música vale el escribir de un libro alrededor y el enviar del hogar. Comprobar hacia fuera el bajo y el violoncelo en esta canción también. La “tarde del verano” tiene el muestreo de los niños que juegan en todas partes, y flauta, y consigue más intensa hacia el extremo. La “melodía rota” tiene porciones de cambios del humor y es a, una canción más oscura que las anteriores. Hay una cierta interacción asombrosa de la guitarra y del tambor seguida por un solo impresionante de la guitarra. La consonancia final “cerró el jardín” hace una introducción del piano seguir por los vocals, agregados a éstos es el un poco de teclear fabuloso, guitarra acústica y un sax a solas que es fenomenal. Recomendado altamente a los ventiladores del marillion y a los ventiladores del prog en general.

DREAM THEATER — Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence
Review by Kill Fede (Federico Cataldo)
This Cd is my Dream of a Dream Theater Album..really..the first cd is incredible,mixing trash metal,crossover,industrial,rap scratches and police sirens :-)..the glass prison probably will become my favorite track of DT.Instead the highlight of the album,the six degrees of inner turbulence suite (the 2 cd),is surely the apotheosis of dream's prog metal..Old Skool Prog metal ,Kids..Learn and try...

----------------------------------------------------

This doesn't seem to have a lot to say why it deserves 5 stars. Also there is no real sentence structure.

PINK FLOYD — Dark Side Of The Moon
Review by JethrieD

5 stars Incredible piece od progressive rock!!! Every song is great (overplayed though). The music is so original. They were pioneers of music at the time of this recording. You arent a Floyd fan if you dont have this album.
