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

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

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. |

Guardian review deleted.
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?  Edited by Atkingani - December 19 2006 at 20:31 |

RADIOHEAD — Kid A
Review by Guardian
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. Edited by andu - December 19 2006 at 19:50 |

Too short. He only bashes the album and doesn't explain anything. |

This reviewer admits to have downloaded the album, and currently it's the most recent review on the home page. He makes some good points and I personaly don't mind that he downloaded, since he claimed he'd buy it later, but that's not good advertisement for the first review on the home page.

hhhhhmmmm....
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! 
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.
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. 
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.
