I enjoy SFAM more than any other album of theirs and almost start to finish (a rarity), save the woeful Great Gig In The Sky rip-off before 'Through Her Eyes'. Makes me cringe every time. Good, detailed and impassioned review though- I must admit my cup never runneth over THIS much when it comes to review lengths, but I SOMETIMES make an exception for Genesis...

Your SFAM review made me decide to pull out the album and listen to it
for the second time ever since I bought it (several months ago
 ...).
Great review indeed, even if mine tend to be much shorter (or better,
tendED... I seem to have run out of ideas when it comes to reviewing
albums, though I have list as long as both my arms). However, I'm
sorry to say I don't find the album equally great. I might even try my
hand at reviewing it, but to be perfectly honest bashing albums I can't
get into is not my way.

same here... it was overly long and had to take a cigarette break in the process of reading it. It was well written and actually made me want to listen to it again... |

My longest review is my review for Sieges Even's Steps album, at 416 words.
 I think that's a perfect review lenght though, I rarely read those over that unless im really interested in the album.

Hell....Now how would I do it, if this one was my favorite album?
I doubt I will be able to top those reviews you mentioned unless I review it again. So let's erase it!
... (just kidding, I wasn't really trying anything). |

OH MY GOD, IT'S FULL OF WORDS!
I like that you acknowledged not having referred to the music contained on the disc before your seventh paragraph. or should I say chapter? ;) why did you invite me in particular, because I write such short reviews? |
