These two reviews by the same member in fact are the same. Albums reviewed are realted- CD and DVD of the same (or very similar) content. But (I think originally CD is reviewed) CD's review could not be used for related DVD as well. On DVD review there is no word about picture,etc, so possibly just a misunderstanding.

As # 5 of the Guidelines clearly states, reviews are not the place to discuss genre classification and such - and most of this review seems instead to revolve around criticizing the band's placement in Eclectic Prog:

Calling Ritchie Blackmore an ***hat and *****-whipped may not be appropriate reviewing behavior.Stern Smile
 
 
where he calls Blackmore a pr***.

In case others notice: The review on the frontpage concerning Cazuela de Condor points out a few issues that now has been dealt with. Track listing for their 2009 album is now correct, and the live album actually reviewed has been added to the discography of the band.

This guy rated 19 Gnaw albums with 5 star rating (nothing else) and while they are just ratings, it's not correct I think.

There's a point where "avant-garde" and "experimental" becomes "terrible" and "pointless,"

I really find it hard to accept this as a legitmate review.

http://www.progarchives.com/Review.asp?id=286170

1. It says very little about the album itself, just simply opposing the views of those who rated the album higher.
2. He has a disturbingly similar view to that of his 'father', who also rated the album lowly.
3. It is very short, not sure of the word count - but contains almost no actual substance.

Essentially, poor, lazy and reeks of chart manipulation.

I hate that review so much ... thanks for the report, consider it gone.

Is it OK to be this five star happy? His reviews don't really shed much light on the albums either, Thrak in particular.

This review doesn't describe the album at all, it talks about drugs, and rambles on about nothing. I'm surprised no one reported this yet...

That's the kind of stuff I'd love to clean up for this site if I ever have the chance.  This site needs a quality control  terminator or two, with nuke power and discretion to delete terrible reviews.

Hmm, I just hope that now someone sees the reviews I reported days ago. LOL
