Exactly my thoughts, together with 3 and Coheed and Cambria.


which is odd because I like those 2 bands and PTH's vocalist grates at me to no end

weird

I cringe when they whine. Really. It's a shame coz I really like the music. I personally think they will sound better without those type of singing.Cry

If you planned on reviewing it you should have WAITED.I don't care if you slam the album or the band,but giving it a rating without a review looks bad if you clearly stated you planned on reviewing it in the future.
 
It looks like ratings manipulation,and I am going to discuss this with Bob and Guigo.

    I gave it one star because I really disliked it. review coming soon
     
    Why would you rate it without a review if you are planning on reviewing it in the first place?
     
    It looks like an attempt to lower the rating,and if that makes you mad I am sorry,but I call them as I see them.

    For the record, I'd give the album 2.5-3 stars.

    If he can beat my ass by making a good argument in favor of his rating, then more power to him.

    people need to get around the PA mentality that "prog= good" automatically



    The problem is not that people think prog = good, it's that people think good = prog, and are suggesting completely non-prog bands for PA, on the basis that they're intelligent or good bands. It's rediculous.


    this is true as well
    PA is backwards land

    He didn't wrote anything at all, unless it's been deleted. In any I also wouldn't give it a five. Maybe a 3. MAYBE.

    To the people questioning their progginess.....do you feel Between the Buried and Me deserved inclusion here?Because both bands are pretty similar stylistically.


    As I mentioned in my first post. Why don't you just stick Job for a Cowboy, Bring me the horizon and yes, Between the buried and me on here too.

    That should give you a clear idea of what I think anyway.

    Between the buried and Me are on here and dislike the vocals if you will but I think you've heard maybe 3 minutes of one of their songs to lump them in with those two
     
    Agreed
     
    But I'd also point out again that I don't think they naysayers are giving Protest the Hero a fair shot. It takes more than one listen to really understand this group.
