So much hate over a decent release. The album is just as war-like and hateful as previous releases, they're still comrades, why write such a harsh review on a band that still keeps to its roots? I'm guessing whoever wrote the review was in a pissy mood
You're advocating Communism.
In your world, "decent" counts just as much as "good" or "excellent."
You want us to judge albums based on being "just as war-like and hateful" as the past, not whether they're as good as the past.
What does "still keeps to its roots" mean? I'd rather a band makes nu-metal, and does it well (

), than hamster out with something true but vapid.
We stand by our reviews. I don't remember this particular one, but the album was fail. I'm sure the band members aren't bad people and mean well. But where I'm from, lying is a great form of disrespect, and lying to them about the quality of their output wouldn't help them at all. In fact, it would hurt them by making them delusional, and thus, they would never have a chance at the success they might achieve.
