Because it makes little sense, homey. You gave it an honest score? How?

Homey? What

Do you want me to raise the score I gave it, or something? I gave it what it deserved -- a score according to what it was; a good, albeit generic melodeath record that is sure to please those who wish for such.

Though I may be not as crazed as others, I still respect the album what it is.

Makes sense now?

I don't think 95 is too high seeing as how Chris gave it "album of the year"....

You're still confused as to what we're trying to say. You quoted an entire album off of samples... that is impossible. Most people listen to the album before giving an opinion about the WHOLE album. If you listened to a few samples and decided "hmm... this isn't my thing," fine, but don't say the rating Chris gave it is to high b/c you haven't heard the entire album. This isn't Blabbermouth where they judge an entire album based on their latest single.

We're discussing something subjective here because it's all a matter of personal taste. Some will agree, some will complain. Well, I've been listening this album for a while and was anxiously expecting its review. All I can say is that I almost agree with Chris... I just don't agree 100% because my score is even higher!

In my opinion: 98/100! :dio:

TheOctavarius · **Posted:** Wed Aug 29, 2007 5:11 pm

I'm not confused. At all. I just don't want to buy this.

I gave it a nice score. It doesn't deserve any higher because it _sounds_ like nothing new, which in turn, means I don't wish for it to be apart of my collection.

I heard the samples, so I know what the songs sound like. I don't need the full versions if I know what to expect.

Can't we leave it at that?

VinnieVincentInvaded · **Posted:** Wed Aug 29, 2007 7:13 pm

Let's leave it at this: samples work great as a buying guide indeed, but next time do not vote until you've heard the whole album. I shouldn't even need to explain the reason.

TheOctavarius · **Posted:** Wed Aug 29, 2007 8:43 pm

*slaps head* Christ...

VinnieVincentInvaded · **Posted:** Wed Aug 29, 2007 9:42 pm

Wait maybe you didn't vote, in that case I take it back. *blames it on lack of sleep*

I think with Ken gone this forum is getting pretty desperate for arguments

TheOctavarius · **Posted:** Wed Aug 29, 2007 10:21 pm

I did give it my own little vote based on samples and a full song. The quote will remain the same until I decide to bother with the album.

Please do not confuse me with one of the reviewers on this site, as anything I do or say is completely trivial. I'm just some guy that posts here...

Ness · **Posted:** Thu Aug 30, 2007 12:42 am

Are you serious?

TheOctavarius · **Posted:** Thu Aug 30, 2007 12:49 am

Well, yes. I'm not going to waste my money just because you're not pleased with my quote.

No. You didn't hear the whole album, thus you can't give it a score! You can't judge an album based on clips. And it's not generic melodeath, not even close; it's much more dynamic than that. Again, your opinion is worthless because you're basing it on nothing, basically.

I am Octavarius, and Octavarius means me! I've been lurking on this board since 2006. That means I know of Eyesore and his... whatever it was.

Don't believe me? That's coor.

Why do you remind me of a blabermouth poster who doen't give a band a chance b/c they base their opinions on samples.... oh wait that's right b/c that's exactly what you're doing.

I thought the whole idea of samples was so you could form an opinion on a band.
