Thanks, it's history toast. Re the new In the Court, it has a lot of different material on it, seems like it deserves it's own album entry. I know we have similar entries in the Miles discog. |

^ The official PA policy is very strict - no duplicates. Any new entry must be based on the release of new, original music. The guy should have asked for the re-release info to be added at the original ITCOTCK page, but he most likely doesn't know the policy.

I posted pretty much this exactly in the Duplicated Entries thread earlier today. |

It's not really an abusive reviews issue as such.
Re the addition, i tend to go along with Easy (no relation) Money's view. The new release has something like 5 CDs and a DVD. I therefore see it as a new package bearing the same name, rather than an expanded re-master. On the other had, on checking the track list there's very little in the way of new material as such, so I'm open to persuasion....

I thought the policy was carved in stone, not at all flexible... I was too lazy to make a propert report (for duplication), so I reported here because it was easy to spot the review on the top of the homepage (at that time). |

Problem is, as soon as something is cast in stone, something else comes along which negates it!
There are instances of albums by the same band having the same title but justifying separate listings, The Beatles have at least one. I guess the question is, is this one simply an expanded re-master, or a new compliation with the same name?

There are some songs on there that may be important to the KC fanatic (me) let me look at it further and see how much material on there has never been released before and we will make a decison. |

For what it's worth, I think they should be separate entries. They are both by a long shot two distinct products, really. Just my two cents. |

The person seems quite enthusiastic. I´m sure it´s just someone who misunderstood the guidelines.

Yep, 5 Transatlantic reviews one after another, all 5 stars, and all reviews are not too much different. All symptomes of fanboyism?

Thanks guys I'll check it out.
P.S. there's something bogus going on here, but I can't prove it yet. So far the reviews are barely within our guidelines, but common sense tells you there is something wrong with this picture. Maybe we will get lucky and some unwitting fanboy will drop off the source of this nonsense, it's happened before. Edited by Easy Money - January 15 2010 at 21:49 |

This review seems to spend more time talking about "Nine Feet Underground" than the album(Third) that they are reviewing.

Unfortunately, not bad enough. So even it's very stupid reasoning, the one we all are trying to avoid in our review, this review will probably stay, as it's not offensive, provides some info (very little, but it does) and so. Don't take me bad, I don't like it, if I should be free to say my opinion. |

This is the thing I always avoid doing in my negative reviews... Demolishing an album, and telling people to 'save their money'. This is not professional at all, and reflects very badly on the author of the review (even if they are professional journalists). The thing is, you can rip an album to shreds without treating it as a sort of weapon of mass destruction, though it's not easy to do. Easier to destroy than to build...
