Written by corrupt on 09.02.2010 at 09:06 Indeed, crap is everywhere nowadays. It's very hard to find new albums that worth listening to. Quality is really a problem with metal music in general these days. You have to listen to albums in advance, even if it's from a band you really like, because you never know when the band will start to suck. (my opinion is every band starts to suck at some point)

Written by Lord_Regnier on 10.02.2010 at 15:25 Indeed. I'm not against an artist changing their style of music a bit to keep things creative and fresh... but based off of what Tobi has done and is doing to Edguy and Avantasia... I'd be concerned about his intentions as a musician and a businessman. :/ In other words, I'm SORTA agreeing with you, Regnier. Which has never happened before. XD

). The fact that many people download today is mostly the the artist's and maybe to some extend the record companies fault. If they were more careful about what to actually release (quality-wise), one could more easily buy something just for having heard about it (or for liking the cover, which I admit I did once or twice). But this project reeks of being a money-well and I blame nobody who's suspicious of that.
