I just thought the tone and this line in particular didn’t justify a 4 star review “ . The album never recovers from there, trying to be eclectic but gets a bit boring and mundane, in the process. By the time I reach the closer "All Things Will Pass", not much enthusiasm is left.”

This review is basically worthless as it says almost nothing about the album.

I think it odd how many new five star reviews for this album are being posted by new members that just joined in December or who joined only to review this one album by this one band. Feels suspicious!

I was just looking at that. All of the reviews except one in the right column are five star reviews, and they all did written reviews on the band (Numen - "Cyclothymia" http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=61678), and then all of their other reviews are "rating only". Seems very suspicious especially since most of the reviews from the more seasoned members give mostly all give it a 3 star review. It wasn't that great of an album, only average.

You are right. All he does is talk about how much he hates Radiohead. Most of his ratings are either 5 stars or 1 star.

Cleaned up some of the lower quality ones, and detected some duplicate IPs among Numen reviews. Thanks for spotting it, everyone.

Good work here! I was wondering myself why so many people though NUMEN made such a brilliant album.. whereas I heard some obvious flaws and mediocrities |

Double (or more) entries for manipulating this album.

Here reviewer clearly hasn't listened to the entire album and only talks about the opening track with broken english In fact, almost every review on the side bar for this album is hot garbage Same person has this "review" where he says really nothing about the music other than really general statements Edited by dougmcauliffe - January 05 2020 at 14:49 |

Review # 2306487 is obviously posted under the wrong album.
Sounds like he was trying to review an album for "Izz" but it was posted under "Magic Pie"

Rush's eponymous debut by hugo1995. Is this review worthy of PA?

If a review doesn’t mention a single song, or only mentions the first song, I’m just gonna assume you haven’t heard the album.

Review 2307102R has still not been deleted. No mention of songs or criticism of the music any detail. Only that the reviewer hates it.

Review doesn't actually say anything about the album, just talks about how he doesn't like dream theater or... their band name? He says "I can't really review this album because I can't listen to it for more than a few minutes at a time. In a word, lousy." Edited by dougmcauliffe - January 26 2020 at 13:58 |

I see what you mean. It's hard to believe anyone could give Dream Theater's classic "Images and Words" a totally negative 1-star "review" when it happens to be my favourite Dream Theater album.
