This review has a few layers worth unpacking. While it provides some potentially useful opinions about the music, the language and tone detract significantly from its credibility and impact. Here's a breakdown:

Positives:

1. Passion for the Music: The reviewer is clearly enthusiastic about the album and offers specific praise for songs like Magic Power, Allied Forces, Fight the Good Fight, and Ordinary Man. They also provide some perspective by comparing it to other bands and albums.
2. Useful Insights: The mention of certain songs being straightforward rock (Fool For Your Love, Hot Time, Say Goodbye) and perhaps skippable is helpful to potential listeners.
3. Comparisons: The reviewer contrasts this album with works by other bands, which might help readers contextualize the music.

Negatives:

1. Offensive Language: The use of slurs and derogatory terms like "fa****s" and "sissy bitch clowns" is not only offensive but completely inappropriate. It alienates readers and undermines the review's credibility.
2. Overly Aggressive Tone: While passion can be a good thing, the excessive hostility and name-calling directed at other reviewers and bands create a toxic atmosphere.
3. Unnecessary Dismissiveness: The dismissal of entire bands (like Dream Theater or Big Big Train) without substantial reasoning comes across as petty and unconstructive.
4. Hyperbolic Language: Words like "cowardly," "spineless," and "soft" are dramatic and unhelpful in a music review.

How to Improve:

• Remove all offensive and aggressive language.
• Focus more on the album's merits and shortcomings without insulting others.
• Provide more specific examples or reasons when criticizing other bands or reviewers to make the critique more constructive.

Revised Example:

"If you're a fan of albums like Moving Pictures or Worlds Apart, this one might be worth adding to your collection. While songs like Fool For Your Love and Say Goodbye lean more toward straightforward rock, tracks such as Magic Power and Fight the Good Fight showcase varied structure, tempo, and memorable melodies. While opinions on what qualifies as 'prog' differ, this album has its place among its contemporaries."

Dissapointing. Cozy Powell clearly needed money and Emmerson and Lake clearly needed to get an album out - maybe for contractual reasons. So whats wrong with it? The musicianship? No. Keith Emmerson is unlikely to play like a baboon! Cozy Powell drums like a gorilla banging a wheelybin with mallets as usual, but you have to expect that. Its the collage of crap ideas, and comical pomposity that makes this album almost unlisternable. 'The score' starts positive enough. It sounds exciting then all of a sudden Emmerson breaks into the most awful and innapropriate fake trumpet riff. It ceases to be 'rock music' at that point, IMO, at least until Greg Lake rescues the day with the first verse, about two days into the song. In all fairness 'The score' is probably the best tune on the album, followed by 'The Miracle' and 'Touch and go' the latter which was a single, which went rather unfairly, I felt, ignored by the British record buying public. Pompous though it was it was dead catchy! The good news stops there. 'Learning how to fly' sounds like Dido at half speed. You can almost hear how bored Greg Lake is as he yawns his way through this mundane, characterless piece of muzak. The rest of the album is plain boring. Then you get 'Mars the bringer of War' Gustav Holst starts to breakdance in his grave as this ponderous trio tear his classic music to bits with synthetic pings, and fake orchestral boings! Then the crowing sh*t on the dung heap has to be 'Loco-motion' Yes, thats right it is THE 'Loco-motion' Done ELP style. Imagine it. Painful. This is for ELP fans only, and I would imagine plenty of them must have felt somewhere between heartbroken and greatly amused at it.
