My only question is how they can like schizoid and find the REST of the album depressing!
But I don't want to give them the dignity of that response

Quote I love Schizoid man but I was never more disappointed by an album in my life . Not what I expected. The most overrated album in history. I love Crimson but cant listen to the first two albums . Why couldnt there be more tracks like Schizoid man? How am I supposed to like Schizoid man and the other tracks? Dont get it . The other tracks are so depressing. How could anyone come up with music like this? Are they mentally ill? Why would anyone want to listen to this depressing crap? How am i supposed to fell after this and the rest of the day? With this sad crap going thru my head?

They were so low on material they took 12 minutes for Moonchild with 10 minutes of fuсking around? Epitaph and the title track are a few minutes too long. What is this shіt?


Well he is jogrant76. I could say that his "Are they mentally ill?" is a nearing almost marginally clever call back to the "Schizoid Man", schizoid personality disorder being a mental health condition, but I would doubt that. It's a horrible review, crude, abrasive, and insensitive. I'm about to delete it from the reviews DB, but it lives on here. Deleted now.

From the Reviews reporting thread:

I am just a little unsure about the most recent review of Mike Oldfield's 'Ommadawn', it comes up on top of the PA page as of now... It is very strange, let's put it this way. Confused

"I tuned out to talk to
my wife for a few minutes then I remembered I was rating an album." is a quote from that same review.




"Part 2 however was a major step down". At this point I heartily agree with Porky. And I can confirm that Ommadawn part 2 offers more than a few minutes of opportunity to tune out and have a chat with your wife without affecting a two star rating. There is little wrong with the review, though it is neither class nor quality.
