Fantastic review, very nice, I must admit. I've listened to some tracks from the album, and I think it deserves at least a 3.5 (in fact, it would be much easier to rate it 10/10 than 5/5, right??), and in general, Art's criticism, as an artist, "the second is universally recognized as 'the nice little voice,' author of not very successful songs and co-author of stadium reunions": it's true that his solo works have had little public success, but I wouldn't just define him as "the nice little voice." But above all, you fall short on the COUPLE, the quintessential one, in music over the last 50 years: "I've always loved, with subdued and admiring moderation, the famous duo Simon & Garfunkel... Some things I've always found excellent... Others have always seemed overly sentimental and baroque to me. Still others frankly quite useless." On these last statements, of course, I completely disagree, but I believe it's more a matter of taste: as far as I'm concerned, the pieces produced by the duo Simon & Garfunkel are more beautiful than the others, and ALL potentially capable of setting a standard: it's not just "the sound of silence."

Avril + years go by and + she becomes more beautiful... and anyway, I don't like her much musically, but you can't really say she's tacky or corny; she's the usual pop singer, with a bit more punk style, but she's not even Gigi D'Agostino or the Las Ketchup! O_O
I, in general, would give her a 2.5, I think that's the right score.

Nothing more to add... a rating that summarizes it all a bit.

"...with sounds that range from heavy metal to hard rock, but considered Glam Metal..." I would define it more as a street rock-hard rock band, pretty much in the same genre as Guns 'n' Roses, that is, a rougher, heavier, and more direct sound than glam metal, but not quite Heavy Metal either...
Moving on to the band, I think Skid Row have been among the top 3 best hard rock bands of the last 25 years, and that Sebastian Bach is the most virtuosic and talented singer in hard rock (he has a powerful, high, technical voice, and an incredibly wide range); in fact, after their early works, Skid Row declined a bit especially with the departure of the blonde singer (the current one isn’t even half as good vocally). "18 and Life" I believe is the most beautiful and touching piece they have ever made; it gives you chills.

PS: I can't understand who this GUGLIELMO EPIFANI is, he's clearly a friend of DaveJohnGilmour, but he's making me laugh so much with these "theatrical performances". A perfect score.

Absolutely the most beautiful album by DT, and therefore the only one that reaches a 4. This record would be worth buying just for "Another Day," a piece so beautiful that it alone elevates the quality and beauty of the entire album.
From a general point of view, I quite like DT; in particular, I cannot deny their enormous technical skill. However, (and I believe the issue lies entirely here), music is NOT ONLY TECHNIQUE. It is also Harmony, (much more important than technique). It is also simplicity, which at times is more appreciable than academic technicality. DT is at least 50% technique and for the remaining 50% everything else (except simplicity). For me, technique should account for 5% to a maximum of 35%. Bob Dylan learned to play classical guitar at home and composed many of his pieces in home environments, among friends. He put together 4 very simple chords and made Music. He did not study at the Berklee School (Petrucci, Portnoy, Myung), he does not perform and would not even be remotely capable of executing super fast shredding and supersonic solos full of absurd technicalities (Petrucci, Malmsteen, Steve Vai). Yet I tell you that in its striking simplicity, the music of Bob Dylan (but also THE BEATLES, JOAN BAEZ, JOHNNY CASH, NEIL YOUNG, up to NIRVANA) is vastly superior to that of DT, in beauty and in the ease of touching the heart and evoking emotions.

I had forgotten about the vote for a moment...

I would like to know exactly HOW OLD this guy is: 14? 15? I think a maximum of 16. When I read this review, I didn’t know what to say; I was about to write a comment in which I would have torn him apart, musically speaking, but maybe also with some “f*** you”, “you don’t understand a thing” and “you’re a real idiot”. But then, I read in the comments before mine that this is supposed to be an April Fool's joke. I breathe a sigh of relief; however, I still find that this review is as funny as a kick in the nuts.
That said, I also say UP THE IRONS: "Dance of the Death" is the best album since "Fear of the Dark" and beyond. The album deserves a 4, but I’ll give it a 5 to raise its overall average.
