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.

7/20/2017 - Review by: Greg Watson
Another DM release that barely sets itsellf apart from the masses
Repulsive Vision is another band that loses itself in the dearth of groups saturating the death metal market. While they stand out a little by utilizing punk and hardcore elements, essentially what they are playing is run-of-the-mill death metal. Think a little Napalm Death with a little early Nasum & there you go. The lyrics are a mix of politically charged anti-censorship and pure silliness. The production really hurts the album by leaving the guitar sounding flat and puny, all but swallows the bass to the point of near non-existence all while focusing on the vocals and drums. The end result is just your typical death meal; nothing new here.
Recommended for fans of: Napalm Death, Nasum
