Because they like them, simple and straightforward, I don't buy them because they are not my style and I imagine you will do the same. However, we don't have any truth in hand, and I certainly don't understand (I’m not including you in this reasoning because I don’t know your tastes and your background) more about musical art than those who rushed to buy the Paramore album as soon as it came out in the store. That's all, I didn't want to make any personal criticism against you, it’s just my way of seeing things. Hi and good afternoon.

In my opinion, the problem is not about when or how they became famous (the equation famous = crap, let me say it, is one of the biggest load of rubbish, sorry for the term, to come out of the brilliant mind of our country; in fact, I’ve listened to underground bands that are truly terrible!), but rather the discussion should shift to another level, that is, we should abandon so many clichés and stop somehow standing up (I say this in general; I don’t want to offend anyone) as critics "who teach good music to poor, ignorant teenagers swayed by fashion," since, in the end, no music is better than another and no literary genre ("Twilight" I avoided because I don't like love stories) is better than another. In conclusion, I wanted to say that many discussions often stem from presumptuous attitudes (in which I often fall as well, mind you, I’m not perfect!) that generate equally presumptuous and uneducated responses. So, do Paramore make trendy music? Sure! Do they do it better than others? In my opinion, yes; then it’s just my idea... Hello everyone and have a good evening.

Nice review, a bit repetitive but clear! The last of the Slayer? Strange, sonic violence and rage, man I was expecting those beautiful prog virtuosos and the ethereal melodies they had accustomed us to for so many years. When will the sweetness of "Reign In Blood" or the softness of "South Of Heaven" return, with those poetic lyrics full of good feelings? I’ll vote for it when it comes out, but from what I’ve been able to hear, it’s a great bone-crushing thrash album as usual! Hello everyone and have a good day.

The review is nice, but expect a lot of one-star ratings since this group (I'm listening to something from their official site) has had the misfortune/fortune (they've gained popularity but lost credibility; something I don't understand, though...) of having done the soundtrack for "Twilight," so they will inevitably attract all the criticism in the world, at least here in our country. To be honest, if listened to without prejudice, their proposal is pleasant and not so cloying (a feeling that I got from the latest Green Day single). Maybe over time we'll see their true worth, but this is just my opinion and I don't know how much it counts, since I'm someone who jumps from Morbid Angel, to Velvet Underground, to Duran Duran, committing an immense sacrilege :-) Hi everyone and have a good evening.

The review is a bit short, but overall it's well written; I find the album stunning, regardless of whether it's rock or not. There are feelings, and behind that curtain of commerciality and cheerfulness, there's still the tormented soul of a man who wants to sing about the pain and loneliness of normal people (read the lyrics of "Downbound Train" and you'll understand what I mean), those who have to put their emotions aside every single day because the rest of the world doesn't care what you feel, only what you have to do at that moment; emotions that ultimately come back when you’re in bed, in your room, and sometimes you feel terribly alone. Hi everyone and have a good evening.

Great album, fun and raw just enough. The review is pleasant, well done!

The review is nothing special, but it's also not that scandalous. As I always say, if you consider a piece of writing unnecessary, just ignore it; I found one merit in it: for a long time I had focused on other Zeppelin albums, forgetting (my fault) this one, but reading this page made me rectify that. In my opinion, sometimes we should be a little less sensitive, but I could be wrong. Bye and have a good day.

Great review, well packaged and pleasant to read. I don’t have much to say about this, I like it a lot; it may be commercial, calculated, and might have sold too much (a serious fault, that last one!), but it knows how to strike a chord. Songs like "Where The Streets Have No Name" still touch the hearts of many people, perhaps those who don’t care about labels, self-serving snobbery, and easy criticism, letting emotions and feelings flow; then again, de gustibus is always ever-present and sacred, for goodness' sake. For me, it's an excellent record, too bad about their last work—I really didn’t like the singles... Bye and have a good evening.

The review is well-written, but my rating is motivated by something else: the courage to have criticized (indeed, brutalized) very important and highly praised bands (I exclude U2 from this because everyone hates them; however, I like them, but I don't understand anything about music, so my opinion doesn't count). Even though I don't agree with what you say about the aforementioned groups, I respect your opinion since bands like Led Zeppelin, The Who, and Zappa might not appeal to everyone! Hi and have a good evening.

What a beautiful review! I love the band. Special mention for "Luna Nera," a gorgeous, evocative, and moving semi-ballad!
