Using bad translator, run an excerpt from one of your prog reviews through using 8 or more translations. For added effect, use the "Random Order" selection. Post your original and bad translation.  (program limits to 250 characters).  USE ONLY YOUR OWN REVIEWS, DO NOT PLAGIARIZE!



From my Ved Buens Ende review.

original:
The undercurrent of the album is steeped in melancholy. The overall sound is echoing and distant, at times difficult to grab the context from the murk. Not in an unpleasant, annoying to listen too way, but in much the same way a reader is riveted to a mystery in which the conclusion may ultimately deeply disturb, but equally entertain. At times the sound conjures images of the Manson family, flower children twisted and wilted by headstrong madness. Indeed the strongest influence one can capture outside of the death metal undercurrent is that of Syd Barrett era Pink Floyd.

Bad Translation:
"Album blue Halo. Total sound is a reflection and remote control, and sometimes it is difficult to obtain context clues. Not cranky, unpleasant, however, can be a Jedi, a compelling mystery reader, finally, very worrying conclusions, but it's also interesting in the same way. In some cases, so crazy and stubborn flower-child have a distorted picture of the information, the. Strong foreign influence death metal, a prisoner in the light of Syd Barrett was Freud."




From my Nova Express review:
When comparing sounds to find a frame of reference for Nova Express, it is not hard to think of King Crimson when considering its textures. Nebelnest does not display the individual technicality of King Crimson, nor do they venture far into KC's improv territory on Nova Express. The musicians are very composition and texture driven.

Bad Translation (35 times):
"In this paper we consider the new plan. Important information and knowledge Nibelnis, IDATE, large quantities of drugs, the Sun, or the Crimson King Crimson Sun ba Chi (e) ku Baltor and learn new lines, the structure of the group."

Bad Translation (8 times):"Ark-search, audio, a comparison of the new red light, when you get to Saint-imagine the texture of Wang. We do not need a new red Wang Nebelnest KC offers risk, locate iron men or the Holy technical problems. Music creators are also very texture and composition."

this is awesome.

Took a chunk from my review of Geddy Lee's "My Favorite Headache"...

Then, hey, heavy guitars! Not letting up in the tradition of Rush's coda tracks being some of the best off every one of their albums, Grace To Grace is an excellent, powerful rocker in the same style as the opener.

Original text:

"After a few weeks of putting it off, I listened to Third, my first Soft Machine album. These guys have taken jazz fusion and canterbury, fused them together, and contorted, twisted, and bent them into this wild hot pot of psychedellic jazz (I'm getting very creative on the adjetives this time). The 80 minutes that I spent with the album were very exciting and interesting. My only grief with the album is the third track, "Moon in June", the onlyalbum with vocals, which are delivered by the band's drummer, Robert Wyatt. Now, he has a fine voice, and I enjoyed his preformance, however, it completely threw me off. It just seemed out of place. But, anyway, great album. If you like jazz fusion and/or psychedellic rock, I'd give it a listen. 3.5/5"

They then made thier first album together, "Larks' Tounges in Aspic", named after the epic piece that was started on this album. King Crimson had a very new sound. More avant, more jazzy, and a little harder."

Original text:

"This is the first album to come out while I'm a "real fan", and boy was I pumped. However, I knew that it probobly woulden't be mind blowing. Rush has, in my opinion, lost a little of it's appeal. But I still love this album. It's a concept album about a young man in a steampunk(ish) world who just dosen't fit in. He goes on adven- tures, and then recollects, not regreting what he did, even though his life was kind of sh*tty. The lyrics are really good, as always, but some songs, such as Halo Effect, seem out of place, and a few of the songs seem to right out contradict each other. The music is great. It's complex, varried, well composed and well played. And it's Rush, so it's plenty heavy."

...35 translations later, Bing gives us:

"The first Album, even hardcore, but something like that idea, but the magic lost on Wouldent punk life: the United States cancelled album Saint tail gas and oil and the world (bosheth). This is good and some of the songs were gay. This is because it is too difficult to have very good music endommag music."

Hahaha. This is brilliant.
 
Heres my original review for Maurizio Bianchi's Symphony for A Genocide.
 
"The sounds of the industry. This album is what I always envision when I people talk about Industrial music. Not Ministry, KMFDM, NIN, or Front Line Assembly, but something like this. This is a harsh album, but not in the same way as a Merzbow album. It isn't that it's extremely loud, but that it's just abrasive and very off-putting, much in the same as you'd rather not be around heavy equipment at a construction site. I'm really uncertain as to exactly what is going on that makes these sounds, and the best word I can come up with to describe the sounds, is machines. Theres all sorts of scratches and scrapes, and similar noise. These sounds also work very well with the concept behind this album, which is mainly about the atrocities committed on the Jews by the Nazis during WWII. This concept really changes how you listen to the "music" on this album, it really does reflect the horror of what happened in German concentration camps. This album truly captures what it set out to accomplish, a Symphony For A Genocide. I see this as an indispenseble piece of Prog Electronic/Industrial music. "
 
And after transalating 8 times.
 

"The voice of the industry. This album is always imagine that when people are when it comes to industrial music. The Ministry, KMFDM, permanent or if an attacker, but the meeting, such as this one. This album is aggressive but not the Merzbow album in the same way. Do not say that it is very powerful, but it is the only Inn, abrasives, there are two other same is built around heavy equipment on the site soon. Really, I know how it sounds, such as audio, you can describe the arrival of this machine is the best Word Is all kinds of scratches, sanding and other similar sounds. These voices are good to use for this album, the main atrocities of the Jews by the Nazis during the second world war the concept. This concept really change how you listen to this album, really reflects the terror of Germany, what happened in the concentration camps. This album cover was actually chosen as genocide the Symphony. It is indispenseble/Prog electronic music."

My review of BTBAM's The Great Misdirect Before.
 
""Everythings a novelty..." This is the first whole album I have listened to from BTBAM, the only other contact I have had with this band is the song Alaska and More Of Myself To Kill. With this being said I will know procede to blabber about this album like a good new fanboy would. This is very far from your average Metalcore band like As The Blood Runs Black or similar, BTBAM manage to pack an absolute ton of musical ideas into this release without it ever losing focus. All of the transitions into other styles of music are also done extremely expertly and smoothly. I still have no clue how BTBAM manages to make all the transitions so natural sounding, because they never ever sound out of place. The muscianship is above top notch, everything from blast-beating to soft jazz is played with amazing precision and expertise. I will refrain from saying anything much about the music specifically so as not to ruin your musical adventure contained within this album. Hopefully you will be as amazed with this album (and band) as I was. "
 
 
After.
 

"All new ... ... This is the first time I heard the entire album, BTBAM, just another link and this group in Alaska and more of their own killed this song. It will know, this album returns to hum as it very well by fans. This is your average blood runs black metal band or similar procedure, BTBAM, loss of focus in this version does not apply in a ton of the idea of absolute music. All other styles of music transitions to a fully qualified and seamless. I do not yet know how to make all natural voices, because the transition, BTBAM will never always inappropriate. Muscianship above the maximum level, all of the soft jazz playing with impressive precision and expertise. Everything to prevent the music is determined not to destroy you in this album contains musical adventure. I hope that this album will be used (and the band), was amazed."

My review of Black Sabbath's s/t Before.

"This album is downright evil, in all the best ways possible. This little group from Birmingham, England are the undisputed Gods of the 70's metal bands, and this record and the following are prof of this. When one thinks of the word "metal" gritty and raw and dirty come to mind, not highly polished glossy or "glam". Blues is a very raw sounding type of music generally, and Black Sabbath took the that sound and absolutely dropped it into hell. All the members play with a passion that is hard to get across in studio recordings. Tony's guitar playing is stellar, with A Bit of Finger / Sleeping Village / Warning featuring ome outstanding guitar soloing. Geezer Butler is also playing top notch, with even a little bass solo wedged in between The Wall Of Sleep and N.I.B.. This album is bassically a masterpiece of music, let alone metal. There was really only a little hint of what kind of sound was possible, Edgar Broughton Band' debut is a masterpiece with moments to rival this, and Led Zeppelin's Dazed And Confused being really the only two doom metal sounding songs before this was unleashed upon the world. "

 

After
 

"This album is the error on the best way. The United Kingdom Birmingham, 70 of the last century a small group, God, this element and then have the Shaw. If people don't believe that the rough and raw and dirty thoughts, bright polished or South of metal. It sounds very cool blues music, and usually Black Sabbath is perfectly healthy and combat. All forward, it is difficult to obtain the passion in the studio recordings. Guitar Tony Dragon. LAR, including warning pinky/sleeping OME, famous guitar solo, the village of shortcuts. Lijiabatele also played the highest channel, small bass solo, sleep and even N.i.b. wall ... ... Bassically this album music, of course, actually now a metal masterpiece. What sounds can easily debut aidejia ˇ bulaodun band master works, their competitors and the feeling of the Vertigo Zeppelin and leadership in a time of confusion really only two songs he played doom before the world."

Guitar Tony Dragon!
 
 
My review of Black Sabbath's Paranoid Before.
 
"People think I'm insane.... Two masterpiece albums within a year? Yes, it is possible and Black sabbath are proof of this. The follow up to their self titled debut is just as much a masterpiece in every way to the debut, except the dumb cover, but that does not make this album bad at all. This album is the one that really got everyones attention to this crazy new heavy blues band with a taste for the occult. This album features probably the three most reckognized Sabbath songs ever, and they all deserve the recognition they get. From the almost radio friendly Paranoid, to the devasting beginning of Iron Man, to the rumbling behemoth crawl of Luke's Wall/War Pigs, this is, I dare say, the most influential metal album ever created. Almost every metal band in existence owes something to this band, and this album. From the drum solo on Rat Salad to the rather creepy Electric Funeral, this album is indispensable for any music collection. "
 
 
After.
 

"People think I'm crazy ... Two masterpiece albums per year? It is possible to prove that Black Sabbath. And supervision, such as the name of the debut debut the album cover, but a masterpiece, but not so stupid was bad. This album is really attention to each new crazy hidden taste of Blues. The album contains three songs, all of which are probably never expect recognition reckognized Saturday. ˇ Friendly niyaluka the Radio was almost paranoid, eat-man rumbling giant wall/civil war pigs begin to crawl, dare I say, the most influential heavy metal album previously created. Almost all of the existing metal bands, such as the band and the album. A solo album more comfortable rat salad to the funeral, it is necessary for the collection of electronic music."

My review of Boredoms Seadrum/House of The Sun before.
 
"Oh my. This is a perfect record for all you krautrockers out there. I have to say I still have a hard time getting over just how good this album is. Boredoms have created their finest record to date with this album, and one that is also much more accessible than their early noise rock experimentations and general chaos. While this album has its fair share of chaos, the first of two tracks, Seadrum is an amazing quick tempoed track with fast and unrelenting drumming courtesy of three drummers/percussionists, some almost operatic like singing, and some keyboards that almost sound like windchimes. If you have ever wanted to be blown away be a song then this 20 minute long monster of drumming awesome is for you. The kraut influence is felt pretty well on this with the drums becoming reptetive after about the first 5 minutes, but they never get old. Once this song gets going, it also doesn't calm down till the ending part. The second song is a much tamer affair than the first song, and possibly a little more accessible, if you love long raga drones, which I do. This is one of the better raga drones out and like other reviewers have mentioned, similar to Popol Vuh. Some people will probably find this song extremely boring, but for people who love Psychedelic drones and meanderings this will please you a lot. It is sufficient to say that this is know one of my favorite records period. What with the great juxtaposition of heavy intense and calm and relaxing, this record is a magnificent release by Boredoms, and to anyone put off by their early releases
 
After.
 

"Oh my. This is a perfect, where all of the aforementioned krautrockers. Of course, still need to confirm exactly how this album is long. Drilling the album so far, judgment, took it's worse than his early experimental noise rock and the general chaos, which is more convenient. Although this album is a fair share of confusing two numbers, and fast, fast tempoed almost insensitive sang some Opera percussionists Seadrum three batteries/battery number information and some keyboard sounds almost as the first Windchimes. If you have never to begin with, and then gives you 20 minutes of a wild animal is a big drum songs. 5 minutes later, he felt pickled effects drum large, open reptetive, but never old. The use of this song and its compounds are not comfortable until the end. The second number is that a lot of things on the river Tamar, the first number, would be a bit more accessible if you don't use long Raga buzz. This exciting, as well as other reviewers mentioned, such as persecution. Vuh, some people find it boring, but this song love psychedelic drone aircraft, winding number. During her enough to know that one of my favorite records. Large, heavy and intense, quiet, relax, this element is omitted from the judgment drilling and who was suspended from his early version of the test, because it is an important step forward."

Boredoms Super Roots 3 review before.
 
"Super Roots 3 is one of an ongoing series of "roots" E.P. by Boredoms. They have nothing that ties them together except for the name roots, so it's not like some ongoing concept or anything, which I thought at first. Anyway on to the great krautrockin' jam we have here that goes on for an incredible 30-31 minutes. While this isn't exactly true Krautrock, it borrows heavily from it, as it is highly repetitive, with drums rarely changing beat. However this album is also much different from any krautrock I've heard, because the guitar is rather Sabbath-y sounding, with this really great riff on going and very rarely ever changing it up, save for a couple of moments around the middle where the beat is changed a little, but this really does not last for too long, as it quickly reverts to the original riff again. In some ways this is reminiscent of their song Seadrum, from their newest studio album, but this is much, much heavier than that song. If you have ever wanted some really heavy krautrockin' then you will be much pleased with this. This record is much deserving of a five star, and is a indispensible record for the krautrockers out there. "
 
After.
 

"One of the Super roots EP Series 3 is the current root of judgment drilling. The name can be anything other than legacies, so this concept or something else, the first thing I did., however, you have an amazing paper jam-krautrockin to 30 minutes walk. Although it is not entirely true, he worked strongly, Krautrock, because there are many repetitions, a bucket, a little change. However, this album is very different from the guitar, I've heard about it, because all Saturday and play really begins a little Reef and krautrock, change, except for a few moments, where the rate is changed a few things, but it really doesn't need to be longbecause for a quick return to the original riff. To some extent, it reminds us of the song is his last studio album, Seadrum, but it is a very, very serious for this song. If you want some really heavy, and then krautrockin, it was very satisfactory. This item is very good, five star and the type there is competition. Krautrockers"

Capt. Beefheart's Safe as milk review before.
 
"The Captain's first album is a very exciting mix of blues, rock, and experimental touches. I am a big fan of blues music, and this album is one that I have always loved because of its Prog tendencies and great bluesy guitar playing, coupled with Beefheart's one of a kind vocals and lyrics. Of all the songs here, the closing song, Autmun's Child, sounds to me like a true Prog song. Another stand out song is the opening song, Sure Nuff N Yes I Do, which has a amazing opening with the slide guitar. Another standout song for me is the song Electricity, which has a very creepy sounding vocal delivery by Beefheart here. It also has some very cool theremin playing curtesy of Sam Hoffman. This album also features two blues legends on this album. Ry Cooder plays guuitar and bass here, and Taj Mahal is here as well doing some percussion. Captain Beefheart actually asked Ry Cooder if he wanted to join The Magic Band full time but he declined the invitation. Overall this album is a prime example of early Avant Garde Prog, that is up there with such early Avant Prog albums like Zappa's Absolutely Free album. One that must not be missed by anyone interested in Prog. "
 
After.
 

"The master is a very exciting mix of Blues, rock and experimental accents in the first album. My wind blues music, fans, this album is my forever love big trend of the development agenda and plays blues guitar and voice and text Beefheart character in the slot. All numbers are gold, select the sound like the real song song Autmun Prog. The next station, this song is the opening track to do, of course, very open. Another otkroil number for me, it is also frightening-sounding here has many Beefheart vocal delivery of the song. There are some very nice: Unfortunately play regulated Sam Hoffman. The album also contains two legends of Blues in this album. Ry Cooder play guuitar here, here and here, and the Taj Mahal is to do some percussion sounds. Captain Beefheart Ry Cooder, asks whether you want to connect with the group, but fell to full-time members of the magic. This album as a whole is a very good example of this, the principle of ' avant-prog, ' avant-prog album to understand these principles for the album absolutely free. Don't miss all the Prog."

Capt. Beefheart's Trout Mask Replica review before.
 
"A highly controversial and ultimately absolutely love it or hate albums. I am one of the people who think this is an album that should not be missed in the world of Prog. It is provocative and shocking, and to make things "worse" it is also a double album, filled to the brim with crazy avant garde songs. None of the songs here really have melody at all, they all sound quite haphazard at first listen, but after awhile you start to notice some structure to the madness here. The guitar is dissonant, the drums pound away, the bass thumps along and then some brass comes just to make everything all the more wierd and crazy. Beefheart's lyrics are in top shape here, favorites here being the two "poetic" acapella songs here, The Dust Blows Forward 'N The Dust Blows Back, and Orange Claw Hammer. there are also some Free Jazz moments here with the Hair Pie songs. China Pig is another strange and almost out of place sounding song here, but I think it just heightens this already amazing album higher. This song sounds like some early blues song from the 30's or 20's, with the bad sounding production that in this case just makes the song much better than a clean production. This is an album that is not to be missed by anyone. "
 
After.
 

"Very controversial, and in the end, love or hate the album completely. I am a man, who is the album Miss World Prog. Provocative and alarming is, and even worse the edge of madness album ' avant-garde full song. The numbers here were almost all numbers in informal voice is heard for the first time, some began to notice some crazy structures. The guitar is a root and then crowns drums, some bass coups d ' état, the only thing to brass even stranger, insane. Beefheart is preferred on texts, poems of two songs, acapella mind blowing dust, powder, Orange hammer here as an attacker. Free time Maoist numbers, Mr. President. This next song is a Chinese pork here, it sounds very strange, almost from the scene, but I believe that only an increase of this fantastic album, this song is quite high. Blue 30 early polyphonic song or 20, so bad, so in this case it is more than the net production of numbers. This is the album and let each."

Don Caballero's 2 review before.
 
"This album is downright astounding. I have a soft spot for Math Rock/Metal, and out of all the bands operating in those genres Don Caballero is on the top tier. Damon Che is a maniac on the drums, with crazy time signatures that change within a heartbeat, with mellow-ish sections, followed by chaotic Avant Garde-ish style of playing, with the two guitars layering riffs over the other, the drums going crazy, and the bass thundering along. For me this is the pinnacle of Don Cab, artistically, and musically. Every track on here is amazing, from the three long epics here, too the shorter songs. There is also even a kind of dark droning song ( sorta.. ), which is Repeat Defender, with it's guitar droning on and on with some muffled noise in the background. If you are looking for exciting, instrumental, music, with tons of great muscianship, then this is for you. Nothing short of a masterpiece here. "

"This album is just amazing. Weakness in my math rock/metal, the functioning of all groups, is the highest level of Ep schools. Damon Che signature time changes and chaotic style of drum playing mad mad mellow-ish sections, there are two ski pioneer, jiaerdejita and Thunder drum and bass accompaniment, crazy other layers. This is the highlight for me, Don, art and music in the driver's cab. All three songs are very cruel epos here in a long time too short song. In addition, dark and even all day number (... ...), it seems repeatedly, and a defender, with a specific campaign, all guitars and some disable the sound in the background. If you're looking for excitement, fun, music, tons of great muscianship, and then the u. a masterpiece."

And finally, Lustmord's Zoetrope review before.
 
""Let go of the tangible mass of your mind, it is only an illusion." This is easily one of the most terrifying albums I have ever listened to in my life. It sounds like your walking in some dark, subterannean place or in some abandoned city after a apocalypse happened that made the sun shine no more and caused all sorts of wierd strange creatures to lurk everywhere, and theres you, with nothing but a pistol and a flashlight as your friend. If you don't like dark ambient you'll probably absolutely hate this album. Me? I can't get enough of it. It is a really "fun" album to listen to at night. Brian Williams use of samples in this cd is incredibly spot on and fitting, with the dripping water at just the right moments, the heavy breathing and whispering, the sound of something moving heavy equpiment around or something bumping a stack of pipes you might find at a construction site and them come clanging to the floor. This album really is a trip to another time where there is very few people left alive and things have gone terribly wrong. Did I mention this is a film soundtrack to a movie called Zoetrope? I have not seen this movie but if the music is anything to go by, it out to be insanely creepy. The only song here that does make one scared or frightened is the song End Titles, which is almost light-hearted sounding comparativly speaking. It has an almost eic feel to it with violins, and droning synths. The song Zoetrope Trailer also mixes things up somewhat with what I assume is spoken words from the movie, with someone saying things like "Humanity is dust". Amazing album. "
 
After.
 
 

"It is released of the ideas are also physical, and alone. references. It is very simple, that it is that most have never heard in my life. It seems that you went into the darkness left or lighting in a subterannean occurs certain parts of the city, there is nothing more sunlight and cause all kinds of strange strange creatures lurking everywhere and nothing else than weapons and Flash as your friends, you are forgotten. You are not completely dark may not vote if this album. I have not enough. the sea is this an interesting album to listen to at night. For example, Weiliansi, Bulaien used in this album is incredible and the annex on the Earth, you can use the construction site is full time, heavy breathing and whisper things further, the sound of the pipes for water or similar institution, and they came to the boil, Ding dong on the floor. This album is a journey to another time in my life, different people and the things they are seriously confused life. It is a film film film duo light? I've never seen the film, but if the music can be very uncomfortable. This song is only with anxiety or fear, the name of the poor, a song nearly a happy ending in Kosovo have said comparativly. He stuck with the violin and synthesizer, almost instant feeling. Creation universum film mixed nature of the point, which I think is a matter of human movie trailer songs dusty. Fantastic album."

Original text:

"This is an album of contradictions. There's tension, yet calmness. The focus is on not focusing. The very things that would be ruining every other album enhance the experience. It's all so crazy, how the album revels in its flaws and its quirkiness, "

...35 translations later, Bing gives us:

"Remember, the album is very simple, but there is no disagreement, contraception is not very rich album upside down. The album is not enough if the error and imagination."

By the way, it's really hilarious to watch all the stages of the process. At one point, I believe a part of the text read something along the lines of "Not memorable but high blood pressure. No birth control." I just about died from laughing when I read that.

Using the same text, but different translators.....

Original text:

""This is an album of contradictions. There's tension, yet calmness. The focus is on not focusing. The very things that would be ruining every other album enhance the experience. It's all so crazy, how the album revels in its flaws and its quirkiness,"

...6 translations later, SDL gives us:

"This is an album of contradiction. There is the tension, in spite of the silence. The house will not converge. The same things, that both the destrói of album would come to be, they would improve the experience. The sum is deflated then as the album pleases its errors and its eccentricity"

A surprisingly accurate review, actually. Still pretty funny, though. I love how the line "The house will not converge" seems to be so random.

...9 translations later, TransPerfect gives us:

"Ste lbum Ste napicie Rodek Mmes-Sahen lbum j dfauts excentricit "

Uhh, what?

Ran "Contort yourself" through Bing, and 35 translations later it came out as "Parameter name."
