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.

6/25/2014 8:03:08 AM - Review by: Eric Compton
I had lost track of former Scanner/Gallow's Pole vocalist John A.B.C. Smith for the longest time. It's good that he has re-appeared, this time fronting German melodic band God's Army A.D. Smith's vocals are similar to Andi Deris (Helloween) and fit this group's faster hard rock approach. Often this debut record is quick paced with dirty blues licks but the addictive nature of the songwriting reels it in through well-built chorus parts. 'Gods Must Be Crazy' reminds me why I adore German hard rock while 'God's Army' serves more power metal flavors. This is a quality debut and one of the better Massacre releases of the year.
