5 Excellent - Masterpiece. A classic.

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.

8/12/2017 - Review by: David Loveless
Some of the strongest, rawest music of their entire catalog
Oranssi Pazuzu are the kings of psychedelic black metal and have consistently released some of the strangest, yet mesmerizing black metal on the planet since 2009. The music on Farmakologinen is a remastered, re-release version of the material they put together for the 2010 split album with Candy Cane. Although these songs aren't new, I'm so glad they decided to release this material, as it is some of the strongest, rawest music of their entire catalog. These songs were strong back in 2010 but with the enhanced production efforts, sound light years better now. If you're a fan of weird yet aggressive metal, this album is for you.
