Bloody hell, a review that not only reviews the songs but is written in clear and concise English that is not ruined with huge words that I have to get my Thesaurus out to understand. Excellent stuff.

Very promising reviews  :)

Looking forward to seeing which gigs the live tracks were selected from. Sure it will be a cross section of the European dates as well as U.K. ones.

Blimey what's going on here then? 2 solid good reviews in one day, no snidey caricaturing but actually writing sensible stuff about the music. All sounding rather good isn't it  8)

The outline online review is horrible. All the rest good but it's hard to believe that this is an actual music writer.  I must censor myself and not comment on the actual review.

Not quite sure what you mean Amanda? Seemed fine to me.

(Disclaimer: I don't know the reviewer but Outline is a local mag that I often flick through in the chip shop queue)

I must have read it wrong to because it sounded  to be full of praise to me. 8/10 is a high score for a quick review also  :-\

I'm guessing we should start getting these tomorrow. Can't wait to hear 'Angry Planet'. Sounds reminiscent of 'Brutal Planet'. And what a cracking track that is!

More strong praise.  8)

Dunno what the Band would think of "Green Tinged Humanism" but that's a brilliant phrase and I love it. In fact I'm gonna steal it because Green Tinged Humanist pretty much describes me.  :)

I just don't think i's detailed enough. Plus the writer labeled them as post-punk. Yes, it praised it but it said hardly anything about the music or songs. I thought that was the point of a review.

When i did leisurely music reviews on a website devoted to reviews, reviews like this would be picked-apart by the readers who suggested on how to improve. More content is needed even if it is short and sweet.

Declaimer: This is just the opinions of one person and is not meant to offend anyone.If it comes,off as arrogant or insulting that is not the intention.
