Everybody (including our very own Eyesore) seems to hate Keith Bergman's reviews. I think he's hilarious. I might not always agree with him (time will tell if I agree with him on the new Priest, as I haven't heard it yet) but his reviews are always a hell of a funny read. |
I never go to Blabbermouth for reviews (because I didn't even know they did any), just for news. I go to AllMusic.com first and then usually just google and click links for reviews. So where are the reviews at on Blabbermouth? Mixed in with the news? I clicked on "Releases" but it just took me to Roadrunner bands. |
in the top right it says cd reviews or along the left side you will see cd covers. I usually go to amazon for reviews as i like peoples input that likes those certain bands...

Thanks, I just looked and saw it as you were posting. For some reason, I must've been blocking out that side of the site for all this time.

| When listening to this CD I couldn't help but think, "Saucy Jack, you're a naughty one, Saucy Jack, you're a haughty one, Saucy Jack."

It's been there all along. I can't remember the last time blabbermouth gave an album a good review! I put way more stock in Ult's reviews on NLTM! |

My review will not echo that review, that's for sure.

i agree 100% ULT's reviews are how i like the reviews. He doesnt bash bands and he gets right to the point. I have seen some good reviews on Blabber and i have also seen some horrible bands get excellent reviews but to each there own i guess...

| I have listened to about 4 times now and I have to say it is a good cd - but not great. I think if you take it for what it is intended to be the cd works. If you were looking for the galloping anthemic priest this is not that. I still think all the musical connectors between songs are a bit much but as a whole I like the album after it is finished.

| | I'm still skeptical. Downloading now and will purchase it if it's worth a smurf poo. I seriously have my doubts though. Concept albums are so tough to get right.... |

i hope you'll post a review in your next update. it will be interesting to read your views on it, since you are pretty good with turning your thoughts into words.

| Listening to "War" right now. Pretty sure I won't be picking this up.
Priest shouldn't do concept albums..... |

| | I like this one quite a bit. There is maybe a few too many interludes and couple songs that I didn't like ("War" and "Pestilence And Plague"), but otherwise it's a good album. |

| I just completed listening to "Nostradamus" all the way through for the first time. Initially I was afraid I wouldn't like it because I had read so many negative reviews, but I must say, I like it. I can honestly say, I'm NOT disappointed (and I really thought I might be). "Nostradamus" turned out to be what I was expecting. As a whole, from beginning to end, it works.
I'd give it (after only one listen, mind you) a 3.5 out of 5. |

| After many listens, I am truly convinced that Death is the best track on here (not a knock on the rest of the album mind you).

Turbo and Ram It Down was bad? Are you serious? I think their worst was Point Of Entry. |
I like Turbo and Ram It Down and agree that Point of Entry is lame. |
I love PoE, that was the tour I first saw them on, great lp!  |
That was the only album I couldnt get into. Its only got like 3 good songs. Heading out to the highway, Desert Plains and Turning Circles. |
What, no Solar Angels? They opened w/that track on the tour, don't remember much else from that show!  |

| I took a little nappy a while ago, dreamt that I went to Walmart to pick up the new Priest lp, they were sold out but made me one there! I shall go there now to see how prophetic this dream, and lp, really is!  |

| | Well Walmart didn't have any, they didn't make me one either! Picked one up at Best Buy, no free ticket per say, just that coupon for a chance at one. |

| I bought it and listened to it. I was afraid it would get boring after 3 or 4 songs. But it was pretty good all the way through.

Mine did, but like Candlemass said, it is just a code for a chance to get a ticket. It actually states that a ticket to a particular show is not guaranteed.

Listening to this one again this morning. Still can't get the, "...you're a naughty one, Saucy Jack, you're a haughty one, Saucy Jack." thoughts out of my head.

| | I don't have it yet but I'll get it soon. There's so many mixed opinions about it I'm really not sure what to expect. |
