After all, you just caught my attention with your hatred towards Frameshift, you wrote a lot for an album you despise. Normally you could have written just "crap, really!!!" and call that a review. LOL

Well one day, I'll probably have to rent those albums again to actually rewrite the reviews.

As you can see, I'm not exactly enthusiastic of spending a few € for them.

But if I remeber well, I gave positive remarks for the first three.

Figures, since the two studio albums are excellent. Cool

But about Nomzamo and Are Thou Sitting Comfortably?, couldn't care less.

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Yes, but 50 are simple ratings. Wink

And two hundred more are one liners or "50-necesarry-words". LOL

Rats Rico, you're becoming too smart for your own good.

I've rewritten a good deal of my Argent and Anekdoten reviews this week, and will finish them soon, so those "50 words necessary" reviews are becoming rarer unless they are from stinky albums.

At this moment I have only a few albums left to review (Twelfth Night and Ange) and not very much time, I am even tired of reviewing. I have been busy a bit too much with reviewing for Progwalhalla and Prog Archives this week

So go ahead Sean, stop teasing us by waiting to review # 1999 and # 2000

, nobody can beat you (also not with drinking

) and I think ZowieZiggy and Sinkadotentree will turn out to be a more serious threat for you, they are very, very prolific

Perhaps from early July I will try to chase you again Sean!

Obrigado Atkingani,

My 16 days holiday on Aruba did me very well, I returned to Holland fresh and inspired and there are many reasons to make reviews at this moment, lots of strong and exciting new releases (Anekdoten, La Torre Dell'Alchimista, The Gourishankar, Ange CD/DVD, After Crying DVD) my review # 1000 will be written very soon

Blablablablabla!!

All vacation

and talking makes my Dutch friend a lazy boy!!

Erik, will you PLEASE hurry the

up and pass that 1000 mark in second place, so I can do the same!!!!

You're holding me up!!

I got some 20 reviews waiting and some of them are of actuality (including the new Anekdoten album)

I'll second that!

I'd better get a move on, because I only take another Belgian as a serious threat to the top step of the podium.
