Sorry for the self-vote, I didn't notice... (p.s. the question I asked might seem contradictory when reading the review, but while reviewing, it's obvious that I don't lay out my tastes; I was trying to be a bit more objective. Otherwise, if I were to use my preferences, you'd see very different words there. As for Korn, I would have tones of praise for certain tracks, while for others, total mockery, because some are truly terrible. But albums like Follow The Leader and Korn, for example, I would review differently if I were to be subjective as opposed to writing an objective review. I think this doesn't only apply to me... doing a review based on one's personal tastes is not fair...)

A little note READ EVERYONE CAREFULLY, I haven’t submitted reviews to the site for 8 days. But unfortunately, HUGE MISTAKE, I sent 16 all at once, 8 days ago... and the site obviously doesn't release them all at once to give space and visibility to everyone, so it breaks them up. If my reviews continue to come in over the next few days, it’s enough to offend me because I’ll throw them out in bulk; I sent them a while ago, after all the flak I’ve taken would I be so foolish as to send so many again? Come on, please don’t be trivial... anyway, what do you think of Coming Undone? Don’t you find it too repetitive and predictable?

Well Killgod, it's not like I'm crazy about Iron Maiden, but you have to admit that albums like The Number Of The Beast and Killers are few that had the guts to make... don't tell me that other bands like Judas Priest or Diamond Head, no matter what they've contributed to music, are better because I don't believe it...

Yes, Cool, you are 100% right about the fact that thousands of copycat albums are released; I've noticed it too, and maybe I've been too lenient with Caliban because, after all, what have they brought new to metalcore with this album? What do you think Demon Hunter is doing? Sorry, if you tell me Death Metal, okay, but nothing else... even though the two genres don’t coincide, I would say they lean more towards metalcore, right?

Ahahah I agree about that shitty band.

Ok Kill, I can call it a piece of shit since it annoys me, can I? Cool, I reviewed Tearjerker trying to be quite objective because it doesn't have anything special in itself, and it doesn't offer anything positive to an album that doesn't have much positive about it. In the end, I gladly listen to almost everything, including the songs I speak poorly of, but from a less subjective point of view, what I could say, I said it.

Thank you, but soon someone will come along to say something negative with some loophole like: this review was already here, you’re too young, etc., reasons used by superficial and, if I may say, ignorant people because knowing about music and just knowing the names just because you’re older is quite different... and I bet there are many 25-year-olds on this site who don’t know shit, and some minors who know more than they do... and if it’s not me, you’ll see there’s someone else, it’s pointless to prejudge by age.

Shine, I want to start by thanking you for not being one of the many who immediately resorts to insults when they disagree, which clearly shows you to be more intelligent than many others. I understand that the structure—initial melody, sung part, distorted section, sung part, chorus, and then at some point it pauses, returning to the melody, then restarts, solo, maybe a second solo—totally connects with Fear Of The Dark and No More Lies, which are also quite similar in duration. While they may find melodies that are absolutely original, the fact remains that they always use the same scales, and I can say this after consulting with musicians who know a lot about this, especially since they play in a heavy metal band inspired by Iron Maiden that is gaining a certain importance in my city.
Axl666, you're right, maybe I spoke too negatively for a score of 3, but if you notice the reviews, despite the negative words, it doesn’t say that the album is terrible; the album isn’t bad at all. All the criticism I made is about how repetitive they are, but not that the album isn't listenable; in fact, it is more than decent. Three stars mean six because there are no half scores. But a 6+ is definitely warranted.

Maybe I was misunderstood Matteo. What I meant to say is that the P.O.D.s, if you notice, started to break into a major label when Nu Metal had already fully entered the collection of mainstream genres that now involves an increasingly wide range of artists. They jumped in with Alive and Youth Of The Nation, two purely commercial singles, praised on MTV and mass magazines like Rock Sound, Rolling Stone, etc., at a time when nu metal with Korn, Papa Roach, etc. was already in fashion. I know very well that they existed before, but don’t come telling me that everyone knew them before Satellite. Now it can be said that their name is on the lips of even the trendy kids used to MTV music.

And the fact that I can't review is another thing; I can take your outbursts, but coming to tell me things you DON'T KNOW, like how long I've been listening to this stuff, what I listen to, how many reviews I send, whether I copy them or not, you can't know that and you shouldn't allow yourselves to say it. If you then think only about your own issues without making sure of the truth, fine, but that's your problem, not mine.
