Cool.  I presume you mentioned PA and the reasons for your message, re: possible future interview?

They should be grateful, it's free publicity!

Oh and by the way, this Present album rocks.  It's much better than Univers Zero's debut so far.  The guitar playing is just great!

I hope so too.  If not, well, we'll have to find some other way!

Thanks Assaf hopefully you have a little more luck than me, I must have scared them off

No, I understand what you were trying to say. Present is a lot more refined with their musical compositions. Though I would not say an improvement. It swaps between days who I like more. I find UZ a lot darker and brooding and doesn't suit for every mood. Overall I find Present are a lot more lively, though they can sometimes get caugh out with their repeatative structures. But a very good band. I still need to listen to their lastest album (a live one I think) I have had it for a few months now but have not gotten around to listening to it, might put it the player sometime after work. Has anybody else heard their lastest offering?

Yeah, I noticed that right about know when I opened the page. Thanks Assaf. A few more listen and I'll write the review... or maybe I'll wait a little more longer to give it some time to sink in and then write it.

Are you not allowed to review an album without having an "official" copy of it?

I think the warning must be issued: "By giving this album less than 4 stars rating, you will only demonstrate your low level of thinking, music comprehension and general education. Abstain!"   I personally think this is 4.5 stars album, so my level probably is OK.   You forgot to add "Also I gave it 4 stars because Avestin warned me or else...  please help me.  "

Well that rules me out then!

None of the above for me, oh well, I cannot review it then!

avestin wrote: eugene wrote: Are you not allowed to review an album without having an "official" copy of it?   Well, according to PA regulations Article 42.3 / 5a a registered member may review an album without haveing an official hard copy version of the album in question given the following conditions: The member has heard the album in an approved method, such as through mass media channels (radio etc),  a concert, the member has heard the album at a friends who has the original copy, the member has heard it at a record shop the member has downloaded the album legally through approved website selling it, the member just happen to cross by the album laying in the middle of the street unclaimed for, the member knows a member of the band and received a free copy from him (sleeping with a member of the band would make this constitute as prostitution, an act not indorsed by PA). Other occurences will be dealt with specifically.

^^^^

Looks like Zaar is going to be getting some fan boy reviews coming up sometime soon, I think I myself would rate it about 4 but their music is just a little too absurd for my tastes

Definately good to see the them now offically on the site. Also I would say the other one Joren want to add was Smegma, which I am also looking forward to.
