CHEAP ADVERTISEMENT:
I advice all of those who accuse me of DT-fanboyism to read my rather extensive review of Scenes from a memory. Now let's see if you still think I like the band!
It was a labor of love.

please remove the T's review for not rating DT's SFAM the right amount of 2 stars
i kid, i kid nice review, even if it's not my bag, but when i was younger, i actually did enjoy this album to be honest, especially the Spirit Carries On, mostly because i can play the solo, ahha |

this isn't a complaint but just a bored observation
Average amount of occurrences of the phrases "Gentle Giant" or "GG" in the reviews of Advent's "Cantus Firmus" album: 2.5 N'BAD. Do reviewers read what each of the others write? |

I find that most don't read mine, anyway. & at best, I usually pick through one or two posts in a thread before setting my wisdom down for others to overlook. But yeah, sometimes a lot of us just write for our own entertainment. Kinda like most bloggers, Facebook & Myspace users; the diahrrea - like explosion of the "hey look at me" movement P.S. There are 2 or 3 "veterans" that I can always grab if I respond "appropriately" to their sermons Feel free to private message me if this sounds like the sort of fun you'd like to get out of this site. I don't want to needlessly attract their venom, eh. Edited by pantacruelgruel - April 05 2007 at 13:26 |

My english is poor. So, I don't know if you understand my reviews. Please, read my reviews and tell me what do you say about them...
THANKS!

Your english is not perfect but it's good enough so that you make your points clear in your three reviews, which may need some gramatical correction but just that, they are coherent and informational, good reviews for someone trying to find some references about what Argentinian's prog sounds like. People may not now who Spinetta or Garcia are, (as we Southamericans do) but you explain very clearly the varied influences from jazz to tango. So it's just a matter of improving the not-so-bad-as-you-said english and voila, a great reviewer to join the ranks of un-employed and un-appointed reviewers in PA!

I don't know really where exactly this report should appear, so, my apologies if this is the wrong place.
I just found, by chance, that there are two Porcupine Tree Signify reviews by the same reviewer:
I know that those reviews deal with different issues (one is the original album, the second is the 2 CD re-issue), but still, something should be done here, in my opinion. I don't know what exactly -- unite the review texts, or create a new entry for the different issue...

Right place, Fass... and very intriguing too. As long as I know it shouldn't happen.

I think the re-issue was originally listed separately. The reviews for it will have been moved to the original album when the duplicate album was deleted.

As every anti-Dt review, the fans get some bashing, too. But I think he actually speaks about the music. if using someone else's word (a fact he clearly explains), so i don't see any problem with it. (Besides the weird inconfruence between rating and comments, of course).

The rating is strange given the text.

No Bob, the rating IS ABSOLUTELLY CONTRADICTORY.
The art of copy and paste is not reviewing and when the rating says the opposite to the review, both should be deleted IMHO.

I think I was very clear ...... I thought the album was painful to listen to... yet recognize that it is considered a masterpiece of prog ... err... prog metal. Thus essential... much like TFTO... hate it or love it.... you have to hear it/own it. Essential.... 5 stars...
I'm not a prog album reviewer and never protended to be one. Delete as you wish. Take note that the 'T' who is the standard bearer of DT understood exactly what I getting at. I have done that in ALL of my reviews... two ratings.. one for the site... and one for my personal impressions of it. Having understood there are people who share my tastes in music and have based their ... choices on some suggestions I have made. I loved the Yes Remixes album... and gave it one star for the site (for fans only) . I have been consistant. And fair... do as what you think needs to be done.... it was a valid review in my eyes...

Guigo.. as I said.. I trust your decision either way. Anyone who reads my reviews knows to actually read them... not go on some stars that I have to give the album. Granted I don't have a large fan club that eagerly awaits my album reviews... a sad lot they would be hahahha.... but they know how I review them.
