GTR — GTR
Review by yendor35
nice story, but it tells nothing about the album, or even if he likes it or not.

Art Rock (Studio Album, 1998) Avg: 4.10/5 from 5 ratings BIGELF — Closer to Doom (10 track version) Review by sinkadotentree (john davie) This is a good record,but there something about vocals that sound like the BEATLES,fronting a band that sounds like a BLACK SABBATH,DEEP PURPLE hybrid that just doesn't work for me.Some tracks like "crazy","closer to doom"and "theme one"do sound great though.On the first song "change",the vocalist sounds just like LENNY KRAVITZ,i swear if i didn't know it was BIGELF i would say i was listening to a LENNY KRAVITZ record! .On the plus side,i love the hammond organ,mellotron,and guitar riffs.I can see why this band would be a favourite of a lot of people,they have a hard edged sound with good vocals.Just doesn't do it for me.

This reviewer admits he's only heard the single Supermassive Blackhole and is judging the rest of the album (which I find very different to that song) on it:

I agree with the declaration of love here, but I don't think it's really a review.

Wishborne Ash - Just Testing
review by lajos http://www.progarchives.com/Review.asp?id=89423 1. 49 words. 2. tad inclined towards a focus on relations (the last good album; the awful next to come etc.) 3. of course, un-substantial at all. |

I have deleted a few posts from this thread, per the original guidelines for it. Please, no discussion in this thread.
Fitz, I have deleted some of your reports for Andrea/Mandy reviews. As you'll have gathered, these are being dealt with on at a profile level, i.e. all those not by Mandy are being removed. Thanks for reporting though.

I was the one who deleted the reviews under the oms.salvador name, and am doing the same with those under AndreaSalvador. Mandy is perfectly aware of that, in fact he was the first to agree - so, no problem at all about that! The only thing is, it will take time, because there is a sort of bug in the DB which only allows few reviews to be deleted at the time - and there are about 8 pages of AndreaSalvador reviews!

Fitz,
All reviews signed oms.salvador are now deleted. All other reviews done by our friend, except those linked with Mandrakeroot will be deleted asap too.
BTW, Mandy is aware about these manoeuvers.
Grande abraço!

The good thing in the middle of this duplicate reviews is that Andrea is not trying to create a distortion in the ratings, because he doesn't even repeat the ratings in some cases.

Only God knows how many more he has done. I can't be bothered to look through any more of the pages Google returns. Suggestion: Why don't you get M@X to do an SQL query and delete all reviews posted by "oms.salvador", "AndreaSalvador" and all the other pseudonyms that this chap goes by, excepting "MANDRAKEROOT". M@X can delete the lot in one fell swoop, rather than you Admin chaps deleting them one by one as they're reported. It would save everyone time and effort, and get rid of the distortion to the ratings that all these duplicate/triplicate reviews are having.

So I saw Genesis in 1973 and was blown away. My good buddy had tickets for them at the Warner Theatre in Washington, D.C., and I had never heard any of their music. On the first song when Gabriel come onstage in his costume for "Watcher of the Skies", I knew this was a kick-ass band. So when GTR came around some many years later, and also many years after Hackett left Genesis, I was eager. I lost that CD when my home burned down and the only CD available when I went to replace it was the King Biscuit Flour Hour, which sucks compared to the studio album (plus "The Hunter" isn't on that Flour Hour CD). Anyway, I'll will always admire Steve Hackett for his contributions to Genesis, for it was his fantastic guitar work that was the basis of my love of their music. 
I've heard of people listening to something called "Muse" a long time ago, along with bands
such as HOOBASTANK and NIGHTWISH...I knew nothing of music outside some progrock
(Pink Floyd and IQ, mostly) and, gasp, Michael Jackson.

Angra is a band of Speed- Symphonic- Epic- Power- Prog- Metal (!) that regarding many other similar ones more is canted in favor of Symphonic- Speed- Progressive and for more (to the age...) with a singer outside from the common one! And this live confirmation all this. Part with "Crossing", little more than a intro when storm 6' 26" of "Nothing To Say", fantastic in the uneven rhytm of the intro part and then developed skillfully, with one great voice. "Z.I.T.O." not me power of attorney the same emotions, but it turns out equally winning. Here "Carolina IV" more Power- Speed in many parts, but at the same time Progressive (big Progressive)! "Unfinished Allegro" is an allegro interval with synthetized orchestra. Therefore here "Carry On" an Epic- Speed- Seeds Progressive that but ago to come the shivers! Andre Matos possesses one voice outside from the common one and according to me the other strong man are Confessori and Loureiro. In order to end... I consider this live truly good, not perfect (it is too much premature), but arrived in the best moment of ours. And therefore worthy to be in the best collections. Those of the conoisseurs.
