While it is weird I did love the new album made me miss Wayne even more. It's hard for me not to love at least the music despite the controversy it still has to some people.

It’s super fucked up that the new Static X vocalist is trying everything in his power to look exactly like Wayne Static.

The overall average rating has been going down over the last few years, although there has been several albums I thought would of been in the green by the end of the year.

It's not about any given person thinking an album deserves that rating, more about generating a consensus of many people thinking so for the same given album.

Given how statistically difficult it is to acquire such a rating, I can't say it's all that surprising. Takes a lot of concentrated appeal for an album to get a green rating.

Just noticed 2021 is the first year ever not to have a single album with green rating (over 8.5) .. I'm surprised, I felt 2021 was an amazing year for metal.
