ScreamingsteelUS is a fucking moron perfect 10 really ?????

You've been here less than a week and have already managed to directly insult one of our reviewers. Good job!

Mmm, he registered on Christmas day 2011 Not 2013

Ha. Thanks. I never expected to incur this much wrath, though as long as I haven't permanently damaged my credibility as a reviewer I don't mind that much.

Considering some of the reviews I've published and that some people apparently still care about what I have to say about new music, it'll take a lot more than a somewhat fanboyish review of a nu metal band to discredit you.

I think "somewhat fanboyish" is a bit of an understatement, but that's good to hear.

Next time omit the rating for such a review and you're in the clear.

I.

Ivor brings up a good point. Drop the rating altogether or give this less than a 9 and people will likely bitch much less about it.

Or quit reviewing. Or kill yourself.

But I'd probably just keep doing what you're doing.

Not a bad idea.

Dropping the rating, not the other things.

I've felt writing comes more naturally when you don't have to justify the number going along with it. I have to say one thing, though. This kind of review and bitching gets people to check out the album. Look at poor little Rod, went in head and heels into the stuff he now hates passionately.

I.

I just have listened to this album, and different musical tastes aside, this is surely the most biased review I had ever read on MS, and I'm here quiet a long time. Next time, especially if you're planning to review another hard rock/nu metal album, just omit the scores, and post a big warning sign: "nu metal ahead!"
All that put aside, this is well written, although biased review, and I'm glad you like russian bands (this one especially, as I can see). Russia has more than a few good bands which sings in russian, like Arkona, Comatose Vigil, or in finnish, like Kauan, or even in some extinct sumerian language (Ea, you can see now what are my musical preferences), and russian as a metal lyrics language is quite fit for that role.
All that said, I must exclaim that this is first and a last time that I have listened to this band. There's no much difference between Слот and their american nu-metal counterparts, like Slipknot, Korn, Limp Bizkit, or even Marylin Manson, so, next time, just put that warning banner ahead your nu-metal album review, and all shall be just fine...

ALL reviews ARE biased learn to live with it.

Wow, did you even bother to listen to the album? Because anyone could tell that their style is waaaaaay different than all the bands you mentioned, no matter if you like it or not (and I hate this album).

My comment must not have posted but I remember quoting this post saying pretty much the same thing. Slipknot, Korn, Limp Bizkit, and Marylin Manson already sound different enough from each other, but these guys are far from being the same as them, regardless of quality.

I don't think that it's really about credibility ... I for my part are grateful for every review .. I usually hit the high ones and give them a spin and thus often stumble upon gems that I wouldn't have found without metalstorm reviewers .. so even when I completely disagree with a review it has helped me deal with the music ... and I am a lazy ass who has got neither the patience nor the musical expertise to write a proper review so I should not have complained about any review in the first place

Love this album!
I've translated lyrics at google and got wondered!
