Well, what the Hell do you expect? I'm not going to be nice about an album I disliked so strongly. Why do I have to be "nice" to the band in any way?

Also, just finished the Viraemia review, got up early in the Morning to finish a project and was in a workin' mood. I'll put it up here when it gets accepted.

The only thing on that album that didn't make me think "wow, this sounds like shit" was the 2-minute intro, and that went in one ear and out the other, so it's neither good nor bad. There was not a single second on that album where the music was enjoyable, so, it got a zero. Zero percent of the music was enjoyable.

Even if there, say a song that was okay (there wasn't, mind you), why is it a necessity to be objective? An album with minor flaws can still get a 100% in my books if the rest of the album manages to satisfy me enough, and an album with 1 or 2 good parts can still get a Zero if the rest of the album is Horrid enough.

Either way, the real review is in the words, not the numbers, and the rating's pretty meaningless no matter what way you slice it.

I knew it wouldn't last.

Anyways, my Viraemia review's been up for a while if you wanted to give it a read.
