Watch out for Bacamarte - Depois do Fim new reviews. There are 7 new reviews (out of the 50 new reviews) giving five star to it and the users reviewed only Bacamarte (but one that reviewed bacamarte and one pf album).  Probably review spamming.

^ I was also about to say something. The five star reviews keep coming in. The album has climbed up to #29 on the top 100 list because of them.

And, that review of WYWH that was so short is also the same guy. Just look at the "location" and "forum joined date", they're all pretty fishy. And the language is the same on them all.

This could be a good review, if the ranting about other reviewers was removed. Haven't checked what would remain of it after such reduction, though.

I think you gave a link to the Snakes And Arrows album page.
Now what would be the review in question? Wink

There's two 5 star reviews already out for the new DT. I thought it didn't come out for another month or two.

Well it appears that it's leaked, unfortunately.... (sigh)

Hmm.... looking at the track lengths of the leak (I will not listen to it), the times are off from the given lengths.

Yes, it has leaked.
 
The problem is how do we distinguish between reviews made in good faith by people who have advanced copies  and those derived from leaked copies.
 
Of course, if the reviewer mentions that they have reviewed based on a leaked copy we should delete but obviously the reviewer would have to be stupid...Wink

SYMPHONY X — Paradise Lost

Review by robbob (robert sargent)

2%20stars They have passed five years sincethe last studio album o SX.

I had the privilege to own one of the promotional copies¿Do I?

That`s what I realize at first,but when I listen to it....mmm..

There are songs in the great quality of the short songs of the last best SX albums.

¿But what did happen with those epic long symph power prog metal songs of before?

¿Did Russel Allen had surgery in his throat? His voice sounds devastated .

It seems that in their lasts concerts they like too much the applauses,cries and screams of the audience when they sang the most power metal songs and they said " ...ah thats the way".....

This album is too comercial and it seems that SX nowadays is looking foward popularity in the great metal masses.

2*

 
 
Is this album out yet? Are there leaks? What's this????ConfusedConfusedConfused
 
And about the DT reviews, it was obvious that this was going to happen. We shouldn't allow reviews so early before a release date... (and I'm saying that even though both reviews are 5-star).... It damages the credibility of all the reviews in general to have reviews based on "leaks", even if the reviewers don't acknowledge it. CryCry

But the reviews sounds too vague, the album is still more than a MONTH away... And we don't know who the reviewer is, or do we? EmbarrassedConfused... We don't know if he's telling the truth... Anybody could write a review and say "I have a promo copy"....I don't know...
 
Anyway, I must hold the record for most amount of times saying "early reviews shouldn't be allowed"....Tongue.... and of course also the record for most times ignored...CryCryBig%20smile
