The school counselor review: You barely passed for your report on the fieldtrip to the ancient glories of Hellas, Sakis Tolis. We know you could do much better. Just try a little harder next time, mmkay.
Mr. Mackey! yeah the album is just average. |

Haha, this review can be called something really Special and entertaining. Nice job  |
|
|
|
| Ah, that picture of Tankard has just reminded me that I REALLY want one of those Peavey's. Off I go to remember the name of the damn model now... |

| Ha, good read. The album was pretty disappointing and I literally struggled through multiple listens. |

| Oh crap! this is nice, especially the guest review paragraph. Thumbs up! |

LOL...MS should have a new category in the next awards, for best review...And here we have the first winner, hahaha... But honestly, you have to admit Alexi mothafuckin' Laiho is kinda right... My thoughts exactly on the 300 OST too...AND, I feel obliged to mention that half of the album consist of Bulgarian folklore music...which was ALSO used in 300...see the pattern in here??  |

Actually this made a lot of sense to me because I actually read the reviews people put online and saw almost all those reactions.
And in the end I still feel disappointed and feel the album is seriously lacking potential, or anything. One of the weakest RT albums for me. It's sad one of my favourite bands decided to release an album like this, but more will come in the future. Now let me listen to their other albums please. |

| If I could write reviews like this one, I'd make my own metal magazine (hint, hint, Thryce) |

Omg, this review was brilliant.  |
|
|
|
| Unconventional brilliant reviewing style. Good job man, I really enjoyed this review. |
|
|

I Hope all the bands could have the journey and strength of Rotting Christ.
How many bands with a so big discography of 12 albums, they have just 1-2 weak moments, in this case, albums? Extremely few, so i will still hail for the name of creators of the Non Serviam Cult!
31/7/10!! HAIL IN CYPRUS! |

| Very good review(laughed my as off) very bland album |
|
|
|
Liked the review a lot. As for the album: I don't understand why so many people are so negative about it.
Ok, my first reaction was that it was not so good, then it grew on me and now I like most part of the album.
I don't say that you may not or can't dislike it, but I think the hype before the release killed its chances. |

| Funny review, but it says absolutely nothing useful for an eventual listener... But you do know that, since you seem to think you know everything about everyone. Anyway, boring and repetitive album with annoying female chants (and I usually love that kind of chants). The rare good parts are the ones that sound VERY similar to Theogonia. That's my dull guest review. |

I would say that this review explains more than enough. I guess that almost everyone who post here know how Rotting Christ sound like... This review explains that this album is so meh that everyone could make a review of this stuff because it's full of clichés and every bad thing is easy to point out.
...Another reason might be that this album doesn't need a "normal" review because almost everyone I've seen in this website agree that this album doesn't deserve one. |

i dont think that this album is what is st anger for metallica, risk for megadeth etc. it may not be as magnificent as theogonia is but you can find some good moments on it. |

|
| I liked this album as much as i liked theogonia...lyrics are good...also great review |

Yeah, it's not THAT bad indeed, butit's average and it needed a review fulll of average comments  |
|
|
|
Excellent and very amusing review  |
|
|

I sort of agree with Metalomorphis, the whole review is based on saying it's average/bad, very little of it describes the actual music. Still pretty funny, though.
About the album.... well, Rotting Christ had to slip sooner or later... It's immposible to constantly make albums like Theogonia.The thing is, the album isn't bad, but when you compare it to the previous release it sounds like crap. If it were a debut of some other band, I belive it would have been recieved better. |

| An offbeat but enjoyable review..! What I've heard from the album so far seems promising to me though. When I went into the local shop it was priced at 20 quid, which is ridiculously expensive (presumably it was some kind of special edition). |
|
|
|
One of the best reviews I've ever read! This made my night. I personally can't stop listening to it myself  |

This must be the worst review i 've read for quite some time now.
If you think that having Diamanda Galas in a metal album is easy thing to do, obviously you have no idea.
The cover is amazing. To see her posting the news to her site is a triumph for a black metal band.
Secondly, since you have no idea for what this song is talking about, at least show some respect.
Rotting Christ are pioneers, not followers. Always have been.
AEALO is masterpiece and i am not the only one who thinks this.
RC can do whatever they want. They haven't got to prove anything to anyone. When they played black metal, the scene didn't even exist.
They are completely unpredictable and that's why we love them.
Oh..and nerds are the ones who think that they can insult other people with their 'humor'.
In the end of the day they are the ones that get humiliated. |

Im agree, I really enjoyed this album I loved this album cant find a bad song on it and Im agree that its a Masterpiece and I think it will be a classic album. I have to add that I have no idea about ex works because I havent listened to them.
"Review of the people having the same IQ as a jar of raisins*: Wooooooooooooooow!
* this also applies to the hardcore fanboys who already labeled the album as a masterpiece before the whole thing was recorded."
so it seems that the reviewer has more IQ than me because as I said it was almost first album of Rotting Christ which I listened to! and its a masterpiece yes. |

Not my favourite album of theirs (and they are one of my favourite bands and have been since I first heard "Leprosy of Death" all those long years ago...)
I'd skip it and go straight for the one before and the one after. Catch up with this one before "Triarchy of the Lost Lovers" but after everything else.
That's all. |
