The guys put a lot of effort into making their blend of Oneida-like tribalisms, kraut keyboards, and freak reminiscences believable.

 The artwork remains crap.

However, it heavily criticizes the album’s artwork for being amateurish, poorly designed, and visually confusing. Despite the graphic flaws, the music’s energy and style hold strong, making the album worth a listen. Discover the intriguing sounds of Cave’s Psychic Psummer despite its flawed artwork—listen now and experience its unique vibe!

 This album sucks.

 They used to be a Melodic death metal band with a punch, now instead they seem like a poor imitation of Dark Tranquillity.

The reviewer, a long-time fan of Scar Symmetry, expresses deep disappointment with the album Dark Matter Dimensions following the departure of original vocalist Christian Alvestam.

 An interesting noir, rather well-written, with some keen psychological insights and others embarrassingly banal.

 Only, gigantic doubt: but why the hell are they all, I mean all, teddy bears?

Amberville is a readable noir novel by Tim Davys with some keen psychological observations but some banal moments. It does not grip obsessively but remains interesting.

 It is not a low-grade show where adult men fight for the sole purpose of proving who is the strongest, because this is only the mask of a discipline based on the mythological-ritualistic representation of Pain and Suffering.
