5 Excellent - Masterpiece. A classic.
4.5-4 Great - Almost perfect records but there's probably a lacking.

3 Average - Some good songs, some bad ones at about a half/half ratio.
2.5-2 Fair - Worth a listen, but best obtained by collectors.
1.5-1 Bad - Major problems with music, lyrics, production, etc.
0 Terrible - Waste of your life and time.
Note: Reviews are graded from 0-5, anything higher or not showing is from our old style.
Scores, however, do not reveal the important features. The written review that accompanies the ratings
is the best source of information regarding the music on our site. Reviewing is opinionated, not a
qualitative science, so scores are personal to the reviewer and could reflect anything from being
technically brilliant to gloriously cheesy fun. The best way to determine how much you may like certain music is to listen to it yourself.

Woeful production really makes this one hard to get through
I don't understand why bands want to make their albums sound as though you are listening to them through water and mud. There is just no logic in having everything sound like a swirling mess and having no ability to distinctly point out vocals, guitars, drums, or bass. This is exactly what happened on this album and while there are moments where things sound promising, they sink right back into the mire again. If I could have heard more of this album I might have been able to actually enjoy it.
