Disagree with a review on NoLifeTilMetal or MetalMetropolis?

What, is nobody commenting on reviews or reporting typos/errors on Ult's and/or Kmorg's sites anymore? It took me forever to find this frickin' thread. Laughing

Anyway, Ult, I was just looking thru the newest additions to N.L.T.M. and in your review of the new Metallica disc you refer to it as "Death Magnet" several times, rather than "Magnetic."

Just thought you might wanna fix that.

A lukewarm album for ZZ Top. This one came five years after the release of "Afterburner", yet it sounds like a tired follow-up to that album. There are some strong points on this disc, like the smokin' boogie of "My Head's in Mississippi" and the synth-pop-rock of "Doubleback," but otherwise, not one the band's best discs. An attempt at "Eliminator" that didn't quite capture that same energy and excitement. Ironic album title, don't ya think?

I thought it was much better than the two that preceded it. Much more blues influence and less of the dance beats and synthesizers.

3 things:
-on the Speed and Spikes Vol. IV review you spelled "music" wrong, you spelled it "myusic"

- On the Stricken page, the link to Stryken is Styken

- How come you didn't review Pulse by Pink Floyd?

Oh, and sick Amboy Dukes logo.

I forget which review it was written in, but you mentioned something about grunge, saying something like "who wants to listen to boring modern rock played by kids dressed like they just got out of bed?". I realise it was only meant to be a joke, but it seems like a bit of a silly, empty criticism on a page of well-written, intelligent reviews.

By the way Ult, I liked the re write of the Seven Churches review alot.

Your review of Ted Nugent's ' Nugent" , you liked that album alot more than I did. I was very disappointed with the album.

Ted Nugent had his best line up in years but the production was a huge let down, it was like he wimped out his sound for radio play. 'Tailgunner' is the only song that comes close to being a Nugent classic. I felt this album along with Penetrator and Little Miss Dangerous were the worst Ted Nugent albums, like he was having a musicial identity crisis.

Not a bad album but by Ted Nugent standards and considering what he accomplished before, it was a huge disappointment. It was beginning of a creative downward slide til he redeemed himself with " If you Can't Lick 'Em" album.

Well, being a bit of a Ted Nugent fanatic, I guess I can be a bit biased. I like all those albums to different degrees. I personally think Nugent is a great album. Sure, production is thin, but it was the 80's.

I will pull this album out and give it another spin. It has been along time since I listened to it, I can listen to this album with fresh pair of ears.

I disagree with the Anthrax P.O.T. review on Metal Metropolis. It's not a mediocre album, it's one of their best and definately a darker more serious record. I guess i just don't like it being referred to as mediocre since it's my second favorite 'thrax record.

I completely disagree with your Sevendust review of "Home" - Especially your praise on the title-track - That song is just boring....really boring!

I tend to agree with most of your reviews, but not that one.

I do completely agree with your Disturbed reviews

Hey ult, ever plan on Getting "Melissa" by Mercyful Fate? It's a great album, one of my favorites. No MF collection is complete without it!

The other MF album that you don't have, "Into the Unknown", is great as well!

Kmorg's review of Megadeth's The World Needs a Hero was kind of a shock. No cool songs? What about Moto Psycho or Disconnect?

Hey ult, your link to "Cross" is linked to "The Cross".
