Angelic Warlord update

Hello,

I just completed the promised update to Angelic Warlord. It is a fairly extensive update, including new links, reviews, news and release dates.

Specifically, you will find a review of the new Testify CD, 24:27: http://www.angelicwarlord.com/reviews/t/testify09.html

Also, I conducted an interview with Chaz Bond of Jacobs Dream & Biogenesis: http://www.angelicwarlord.com/interviews/chazbond09.html

In the immediate future I plan to begin work on reviews of new albums from Impellitteri and Hero.

Thanks,

Andy

Cool Andy.
I'll come over to read all your have written for us.

Glad to see you feeling well enough to update the site. Looks like I have my reading cut out for me.

Enjoyed the Testify review. I would agree with your review. I might give them a few more percentage points just based on my overall enjoyment. But, that's why I don't do reviews. I'm glad that there are people out there who do this well and that enjoy doing this. Me--I just want to hear the tunes.

Me too I love to read reviews.
But love it more how they sound.

I know it's not possible, but how cool it would be when we can listen at Angelic Warlord how the bands sound you have written reviews of Andy.

Cool to see you are feeling well enough to work on Angelic Warlord.

That's why I don't do them either. Everything would either be 90% to 100%, or 10%

Good question about sound samples. To be honest, I would not know where to start in that I only have very basic web design skills. I learned just enough about web design to get Angelic Warlord off the ground and nothing more. But I do have a book called "Dreamweaver 8 for Dummies" so looks like I need to do some reading. But would like to add that I cannot think of any other record review sites out there that include samples with their reviews.

Feeling much better and pretty much back on two feet. Have made a good start on the new Impellitteri review and hope to have it online next weekend.

Thanks,

Andy

I started to read "Dreamweaver for dummies too"
I gave it up.
Hope you have more succes.
How great it would be to listen to some samples of the reviews you talked about.

For the most part I think you are correct. I do know that "JesusFreak Hideout does sound samples, but if I remember correctly their "reviews" seem more promotional than actual critiques.

When they first started out, I would agree. But, they are getting a bit more nitpicky with their reviews. I have seen them completely dog some releases that I thought were amazing and praise some rather crappy stuff. I don't know how objective they are, but I guess there is always some bias with any reviewer.

Well I'm not a good judge of anything at JFH. I have probably only read 4 or 5 reviews at that site. By contrast I have read nearly all of Andy's reviews at Angelic Warlord.

Like Decyfer Down. They gave them a 2.5/5 while I thought it was a great album.

Well maybe that argues my point.
Maybe Decyfer Down didn't give JFH enough free merch, so they got a less than stellar review.

(just kidding don't go starting any rumours because of little ole me).
