Here I'm gonna write some album reviews. Just to tell you guys what album I like and what album I hate.
**********************
Killswitch Engage - Alive or Just Breathing
The Good Stuffs
==> Killswitch Engage is good metal band. They combined every metal elements.
From the heavy Trash Metal sound to the dark Black Metal sound. This band is
also very creative at creating good guitar riffs. Especially for the starting
of the song.
The Bad Stuffs
==> Some songs are too heavy and the vocalist sometimes ruin the song with
his witch-like screaming.
Conclusion
==> A nice heavy album. A favourite to all heavy music listeners.
Rating
==> 8.4
***************************
From Autumn To Ashes - The Fiction We Live
The Good Stuffs
==> From Autumn To Ashes is one of the few good Indie Metal band. Their first
single, "The After Dinner Payback" is featured in "Freddy vs
Jason" soundtrack. Their hardcore screaming mixed with the slow high tuned
vocal make From Autumn To Ashes a unique band. Their abrupt changes of vocal
from screaming to singing however, didn't affect the quality of the songs.
The Bad Stuffs
==> Some songs are too slow and repitative. They use the same singing style
(from screaming to singing then scream then sing again) too many times.
Conclusion
==> A good album overall and acceptable to all metal or rock listeners.
Rating
==> 9.2
***************************
Metallica - St. Anger
The Good Stuffs
==> Finally, an album from Metallica. Superb standout songs like "Frantic",
"St. Anger" and "The Unnamed Feeling" really made this album
worth buying. Their drum beats and guitar riffs are pretty different but still
nice to listen.
The Bad Stuffs
==> Some of the song takes way too long to start the song. Some of the song
are more of anger than music. Since Metallica had changed their bassist, their
guitar riffs are pretty bad.
Conclusion
==> Upsets a lot of Metallica's fan but still a good album.
Rating
==> 7.9
****************************
Korn - Take A Look In The Mirror
The Good Stuffs
==> Korn's sixth album. A less heavier and much better album than "Untouchables".
Korn created a new different sound. Not like Korn's past album, the vocalist
used his vocal talent more than in any other albums. The screams mixed very
well with the heavy guitar riffs.
The Bad Stuffs
==> Some of the songs sounds alike. Not as heavy as some of Korn's fan expected.
The singing and makes some of the song in this album sound too happy.
Conclusion
==> A great follow-up and probably the best album from this band. Definitely
worth listening.
Rating
==> 9.4
****************************
Mudvayne - L.D. 50
The Good Stuffs
==> The album that introduce Mudvayne to the world of music. Great vocals.
The vocalist actually can scream and sing the second after. Mudvayne probably
has the best bassist ever. They have a very nice heavy Gothic sound.
The Bad Stuffs
==> Some of the songs have very bad and pointless ending or starting.
Conclusion
==> A very raw album. Dark and Gothic and will probably be a favourite to
all metal listeners.
Rating
==> 8.6
***************************
Evanescence - Fallen
The Good Stuffs
==> Evanescence has a very good and powerful vocalist. One of the few good
bands and probably the best band with a female vocalist. Superb standout tracks
like "Bring Me To Life", "Going Under", "Haunted"
and "Tourniquet". A good mixture of Gothic Rock and the Orchestra-like
sound.
The Bad Stuffs
==> Some of the songs are boring and repitative.
Conclusion
==> This album is overall a very good album. Very origanal and genuine.
Rating
==> 9.5
****************************
Slipknot - Slipknot
The Good Stuffs
==> Very loud vocalist and heavy guitar riffs. This album is a mixture of
heavy guitar riffs, good vocals plus fast and nice percussions. This band actually
has everything a band needs. Some of the song mix singing with screaming and
some of them are pure rage.
The Bad Stuffs
==> Some songs has very bad lyrics.
Conclusion
==> Superb album and an absolute favourite to heavy metal listeners.
Rating
==> 9.1
****************************
Ill Nino - Confession
The Good Stuffs
==> Ill Nino is the best Latin band ever. Their lyrics are much better than
their first album. They have a very origanal sound. The percussions mixed well
with the drum beats and guitar riffs.
The Bad Stuffs
==> Most of the song sounds the same. The album eventually gets boring after
listening to the fifth track.
Conclusion
==> Good album but won't last long in your disc player.
Rating
==> 7.9
*****************************
Slipknot - Iowa
The Good Stuffs
==> This album is packed with rage. Very heavy and suitable to heavy metal
listeners. Every song in this album expresses the anger that's been kept in
one's heart. Really good to listen when you're angry or something.
The Bad Stuffs
==> Some of the song are too noisy and has bad lyrics.
Conclusion
==> Very nice and heavy album. Definitely will be in your disc player for
at least one month.
Rating
==> 9.0
******************************
Adema - Unstable
The Good Stuffs
==> A superb follow up to their self-titled album. Lyrics overall improved.
Most of the songs are less heavier and much more meaningful. This album is actually
something Adema's fan all over the world expected as their second album.
The Bad Stuffs
==> Too many slow songs. Plus some of the lyrics are still too straight forward.
Conclusion
==> An excellent album for rock and metal listeners.
Rating
==> 8.8
******************************
Korn - Untouchables
The Good Stuffs
==> Something that most of Korn's fans looking forward to. The heaviest album
so far. The vocals and guitar riffs are superb. Every song in this album is
different. There are haunted songs, scary songs, heavy songs and fast songs.
Everything in one platinum album.
The Bad Stuffs
==> Sometimes the vocalist ruins the song by singing through his nose.
Conclusion
==> This album is something for those who like the heavier part of Korn than
the slower part of Korn.
Rating
==> 9.5
*******************************
Linkin Park - Meteora
The Good Stuffs
==> A new album from Linkin Park, finally... Heavier and much more meaningful
than Hybrid Theory. There are more lyrical songs in this album. The best thing
is, the album still maintain the quality of Hybrid Theory.
The Bad Stuffs
==> The album is only around 30 minutes. I think Linkin Park could make it
longer.
Conclusion
==> This album kick ass!
Rating
==> 9.7
*******************************
System of A Down - Steal This Album
The Good Stuffs
==> The best B-Side album ever. The songs are much more softer than the last
album, Toxicity. Really nice :D:D:D
The Bad Stuffs
==> Some of the songs repeat the same thing over and over again...
Conclusion
==> Some System of A Down's fans might be a little pissed off. But hey! It's
still a good album!!!!!!!!
Rating
==> 8.5
