If these guys are doing impromptu jams they're still not very cohesive. Phish did impromptu jams and were dead-on every time. Precise, fluid, and very cohesive as a unit. I simply said that I think this band's musicianship is flawed, there are mistakes in the timing and in their playing. They may be amazing musicians, but in the samples I hear flawed, pretentious music. It's an opinion on the music, it has nothing to do with you.
I think you're a bit too sensitive when it comes to what you review. You want only praise, anything that is not you get snotty about it and imply that somehow that person is a simpleton for not getting it. I don't criticize what you like 24/7. In fact, the last time I wrote anything in a review thread of your was back in August and oddly enough I wrote this:

What stupidity is this, bud? I dare say the only thing stupid in this thread so far was that comment you just made. Yes, some people dislike and do not agree with what Misha reviews, myself included (most of the time), simply because it is very far outside the realm of metal, but I respect the fact that his words are honest and I would never disrespect someone who tries to open people to a different style of music. I do that all the damn time here!
But Misha is a reviewer here and this is not my website, nor is it yours or any other forumite's, so it's not our decision. Disagree with it and move on, but to call the reviews, or possibly the fact that he's reviewing it in the first place, whichever it is, "blatant stupidity" is in fact blatantly stupid.
Funny, huh? I didn't ask you to try and insult me by saying I listen to pop-metal—which is a ridiculously inaccurate statement. I simply commented on the music of your review. Again, it has nothing to do with you.
