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.

Stroked to the point of anti-climactic
Man you want to talk about a middle of the road album? Look no further than this sterile white version of thrash metal act Anthrax. One part metal minded, one part progressively stroked to the point of anti-climactic. I haven't quite put my finger on what is making this one just relish in the delete bin. At some point in the future (I'm 40, when?) I may look at this album as an important piece of the Anthrax structure. Until then ... pass me Game Over or Havok.
