actually.

I do prefer other stuff by him, but I reckon it's a grower. Not bad at all.

Great show in Benicassim last year.
You should come back this year.

It's a shame you got such a bad review here, as I know many people that like your record a lot.

sorry... it's late.

...but I haven't been on DiS for a few days.
And what do I come back to?
This awful review.

See bother and pizz101 for shades of my argument for why this is crap.

From almost calling them racist to making a joke that nobody seems to understand about Kid 606 (?), this is, without doubt, the worst review I've read on this site.

I was fairly disappointed at first with this album, after seeing a really promising set in Benicassim last year. I like 'Thou Shalt...', unlike the majority of people reading this, it seems. Thought it was pretty funny actually, a list song but had some charm, etc etc.
That, tagged with the great little set in Benicassim last year made me possibly too excited about the album.

Now that I've given it a couple of listens, there are definite stand-out tracks, some great ideas, good and unique lyrics, alongside the odd dip in quality.

1/10?
You should have got your fix elsewhere. Satisfying your high-horse self-status is not what reviews are for.

I'm not an idiot and understand that reviews are for opinions but this particular review was just utter pish.

i've always loved so so much, because they always just sound like them, and like no-one else out there.
the way they say things is so different to the way anyone else seems to put things.
i love it
and it really, really does grow on you.
i LOVE this album.

fully deserved 10/10 and possible album of the year status.
so far the only contender that comes to mind would be Mirrored, but to be honest i think they're destined for 2nd place after this masterpiece.

and it's also pretty much just not to your taste apparently.
it's just the way they wanted it, or they'd have done it differently.
if you have any problems with it, that's just the way it goes - they've played, recorded and engineered it to their taste and this is what has been made.
simple.
'shame you don't see eye to eye with their sound (woah...sense-making...no...), but a lot of other people really do.
maybe the sound they love so much will grow on you over the coming weeks...

so this theory stands up well to the facts...

will age be an issue etc?

tell tell tell more more?

please?

thanks

a LOT. :)

is magnificent.
i like the review too, good work :)

i'd only heard of this artist before reading your review... and now... well i'm listeing to this album
