5 Excellent - Masterpiece. A classic.
4.5-4 Great - Almost perfect records but there's probably a lacking.
3.5 Good - Most of the record is good, but there may be some filler.
3 Average - Some good songs, some bad ones at about a half/half ratio.
2.5-2 Fair - Worth a listen, but best obtained by collectors.
1.5-1 Bad - Major problems with music, lyrics, production, etc.
0 Terrible - Waste of your life and time.

Note: Reviews are graded from 0-5, anything higher or not showing is from our old style. Scores, however, do not reveal the important features. The written review that accompanies the ratings is the best source of information regarding the music on our site. Reviewing is opinionated, not a qualitative science, so scores are personal to the reviewer and could reflect anything from being technically brilliant to gloriously cheesy fun.

Demos and independent releases get some slack since the bands are often spent broke supporting themselves and trying to improve. Major releases usually have big financial backing, so they may be judged by a heavier hand. All scores can be eventually adjusted up or down by comparison of subsequent releases by the same band. We attempt to keep biases out of reviews and be advocates of the consumer without the undo influence of any band, label, management, promoter, etc.

The best way to determine how much you may like certain music is to listen to it yourself.

When you are dealing with Polish death metal you immediately think of groups like Decapitated and Vader. Hell-Born are indeed born from the Polish death scene, a mad bunch of crazed deathheads providing a rather generic form of metal with their newest release "Legacy Of The Nephilim". In terms of precision and accuracy I hear nothing that faults the bands efforts or talent. However, in this day and age you really need production to stand out from the hordes and hordes of death metal fanatics and bands lining every street corner in every city in every country. The band play straight up mid-tempo death metal, complete with quick, stomping guitar riffs that recall early Amon Amarth. Vocalist Baal has a deep register, sounding a bit like Massi of an early version of Hypocrisy. I am a bit of a snob when it comes to this form of aggressive music. I need things shiny, polished, and spruced up with the lastest production wonders. I'll stick to Vader, Cannibal Corpse, and Unleashed for my death tunings. Fans of the wider realm should appreciate Hell-Born.
