You used `mix`two times in the same sentence. And Fridge, would you tone down your urge to correct? You've been doing it for a while, it's getting quite annoying. PM people instead.

Just my two cents, no offense :)

My pedantry is to be taken with a sense of humour. Even my correction was supposed to be funny.

Anyway, that said, this album is brutally awesome.

Shouldn't it be "the band mixes"?

Not necessarily. The "band" can be used as "they", in which case "mix" is appropriate; or "it", in which case "mixes".

Criticising my reviews for that sort of thing above others'? You guys suck. Listen to Mumakil, they're good.

I think this band is really cool, but I just can't bear to listen to them anymore ever since I realised Zad had repeated the word "mix" in a sentence.

Oh, well, I'm sorry if I think published reviews on a site of this calibre should have a certain standard of linguistic correctness.

Dude, choose your targets better. Me putting 'mix' deliberately into a sentence twice is not a good target.

:lol: for rio.

I'm all for a deliberate bending of the rules of grammar, but only if it has some sort of ulterior purpose. To me, it just read like a mistake, and if I were in Mumakil, I'd take this site all the less seriously for that.
