This guy admits he has heard only 2 songs of a double album and decided to give it only 1 star, pretty unfair for the band i think.

Only one real paragraph, the rest is one liners where he tries to be funny. Even the paragraph doesn't really talk about the band, it just says that Led Zeppelin makes "bad" albums better than this.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with that review.

A short review (though a little over 50) in addition to being another early review for Rapid Eye Movement....

I thought reviews before the release date (September 24th in Poland) weren't allowed to be posted (without proof that it's a promo copy), but there are still around 4 other reviews and several ratings. Confused

PINK FLOYD — Dark Side Of The Moon
Review by paloz (Michele)

5%20stars Millions of people all over the world talked and wrote about this album, loved it or simply know it. It is one of the most popular works ever written in music. So I really don't know what to add about the "Dark side of the moon", where the word MASTERPIECE is not abused. I add my votes to the tracks, even if I know this is finally ONE track.

Speak to me/Breathe: 8,5
On the run: 8
Time: 10
The Great Gig in the Sky: 10
Money: 9
Us and them: 9,5
Any colour you like: 10
Brain damage: 9
Eclipse: 9,5

In the end, there's no doubt this is a full-5-stars album, simply because it changed the whole rock genre, and influenced thousands of prog groups.

"The" must.

Not the most musical review ever, but he's giving an opinion. I don't think it should be changed, even less deleted.

The latest two reviews on the home page leave a bit to be desired IMHO.. .That's one for Chilean band Exsimio:

http://www.progarchives.com/Review.asp?id=139799

Really doesn't say anything about the album... The second one is for Anglagard's "Hybris", and makes use of the dreaded "o" word:

In the Djam Karet section, there is a person who has given 1 star to about 15 of the 21 titles.  He posted most of them in a very short time span, and he gives not one of their albums more than one star.  Isn't it reasonable to assume that if the guy actually listened to 15 albums, just one might get at least 2 stars? 

Taste aside, seems pretty obvious the guy just has a vendetta against DK.  If he hated his first couple albums I'm sure he wouldn't have went through the trouble to get the others some of which are likely hard to find. 

I'm sorry if this was the wrong section for this info.   I just wanted to call this to attention because DK deserves better than someone whose intent is just to pull down the scores of their titles, with no real consideration to the music.   Here is the gents tagline from one of his ratings.

agreed, though I guess if one eviscerates an album they should explain in somewhat further detail.  No grounds for deletion, though, IMO

Perhaps the reviewer should be asked to remove the derogatory genitalia reference in the last sentence. Shocked
