I like Ricochet review very much - it's interesting to read, although not very easy, it's deep and profound, and I agree with the rating given and what he's saying to support his rating. I consider removing of the reviews of this kind to be a mistake.
From other hand, as long as we have "report inappropriate review" in "abuse" section of forums, where everyone can inform on anything he or she finds inappropriate or abusive or too hard to comprehend, it's Mystic Fred's right to call nonsense any review which does not make sense for him, notwithstanding whether it's been written by Collaborator or anyone else.
Being totally against any humiliation, I must admit that it is difficult to draw the line where critisism stops and humiliation starts.

This one has fanboy written all over it. Says nothing at all about the record.

I'd like the conflict over my review here to be...kinda...stopped,if it's possible.I myself have already passed over it,it's no big deal,things should go on,not stagnated on the issue.
Still,if I can ask for something,its not respect or insult-protection,but to have in mind (for next times) that neither casual read,nor "losing interest" is really something unappropriate.  peace. |

And this is our old friend.... Besides the usual language problems, it really does not say a lot about the album to people who've never heard the songs in question.

Speaking merely as a casual-reader at this site (my opinion carries no weight even with myself), I truly enjoyed this review. |

Plenty of posts are hidden by the moderators Cert.The reason you don't see them is because they have been "hidden".

When this album is ending you want listen it again, the better things an artist would. Only today I've listen the first time this work and I would like to play with them. I find this album fantastic, better than very many others celebrated bends. Really. 
I remember seeing one of Tom Cruise's early film called Risky Business and remember wanting to see it for the soundtrack full of TD . Well the film was apt enough (I was twenty or so and those kind of movies spoke to me at the time as my parents were leaving us the house as they went globe-trotting for three or four weeks periods) , but I remember being slightly deceived by the soundtrack. Well the music seemed to come out of this album , I am probably mistaken for the actual facts but not in the spirit of the statement.

Thumbs down on York and the bunch. I've heard this album over and over in the last six years, in many
different states of mind, emotions, attitutes, etc., and I don't even own the damn thing, so take me
seriously as someone who has acutally given this album a chance and hasn't come to a dramatic
conclusion after 3 or 4 listens. When I go over to someone's house, one of the first things I'm drawn to
is their album collection. More often than not, this hauntingly produced, oversold "masterpiece" always
rears its sneaky head out of the middle of a rack of albums, and is usually their favorite of the bunch.
Truth be told, this is prog for dummies. It breaks barriers, yes, but those barriers were set by awful
bands, CEO's, meaningless ratings, and most other forms of bull[&*!#] that keep really good music off the
shelves. If mainstream got any tamer, Pooh Goes on a Picnic would end up being labeled prog by the
robots shopping at Sam Goody. I just don't want to hear this album again and am sick of hearing
"amazing" and Radiohead in the same sentence. If droning, uninteresting banter is now labeled
amazing then get me out. I give OK Computer one star because it's the best radiohead album out there.
Amnesiac is horrible, by the way. In any case, get it outta here!!!
