Comments: Very Informative and up to date. There is a great message board which is used by
many fans and the band members. Site is easy to navigate with the option to make your own
bookmarks. There is an update section that tells you the date of when pages had new
material added. Background is changed to correspond with the current release from the

Comments: This one's pretty easy on the eyes with a basic table format. Tone color is
consistent 'esp for the backgrounds and the white on red is easy to read. Individual
images are basicaly dropped on pages like a newspaper though with little done to them
creativly. A lot of up-to-date info is availible about this band and I can get pretty much
anywhere with one click. --Frank Hill

Comments: This new site looks very crisp and clean. The black and white colors enhance a
nice metallic layout, almost medieval in theme which fits this band perfectly. This one is
very easy to navigate, with plenty of detail put into the biography and discography. The
audio samples are very informative as well, taking the band through all eras. --EC
Paragon (www.paragon-legions.com)

Overall - 16/5 = 3.2
Comments: This site is very basic, with some decent graphics that help seperate the text
from the layout. The navigation is good, with all links in working condition. The content
is very informative as well, with plenty of info on the band's albums, complete with
covers and tracklistings.
Crystal Eyes (www.crystaleyes.net)
General Design - 3

Layout - 2

Content - 5
Overall - 3.4
Comments: Crystal Eyes has a pretty decent site here, but I don't really care for the
layout that much. There is tons of useful info here, with a lot of details on the band and
their biography. The links all work, but the main problem is they are very hard to click
on due to location.
