I have it and I still need to listen to it. I didn't like the review, too many ellipses in the middle of the sentences make it definitely too fragmented.

I imagine you save the ulver too, the same ulver who at the beginning of their career perfectly fit the description of those you are "condemning." Mhà. Judging like this based on genres is always wrong, regardless of what genres they are. Broader: making generalizations is always wrong (even though this is a generalization). Even if you meet a million white swans, there could be 3 million black ones well hidden.

Moreover, the same Martin Lopez, before playing in Opeth, who did he play with?
Some say Amon Amarth? Axe, who did he play with? Bloodbath and Witchery? Akesson? With Arch Enemy? Nordin, with whom? Eruption? Akerfeldt, with whom did he do a side project of just one song, of which he then reused the chorus (word for word) in "To Rid the Disease" (since you always reference Damnation)? Dan Swano? ... how ignorant these metalheads are, they only know how to make noise.

Stoney, you don't even deserve a response. Just reread what you wrote: "a record like this COULD never have been birthed from the mind of a metal musician, no matter how good they are" and take a look at where our musicians come from (Mikael Akerfeldt above all). Try to see if you can find out what the first album they bought was and what genre they played before. Then we can talk about it again.

But explain to me, you spend 3/4 of the review saying that they should be taken as they are, updated, contextualized, and so on, that Ramones or others will no longer be there, that in the end this is an album made specifically for the mainstream audience, and then you give it 5 stars?
Well, at this point, everyone deserves 5 stars, duly contextualized and taken in their context. It's listenable, but 5 stars are too many, especially considering that, as you yourself say, at most the influences are found on Avril Lavigne or something else.
