For some reason I had thought you already did that XINR review.
Oh well, off to check them out now.

I think our synopsis of Pastor Brad is pretty similar...

Loved the review of Dead Moon's Gray. Sometimes I don't agree with your rating, but I think you nailed this one. Of course, reviews are just well worded opinions, and your's are going to be better than anything I could do.

Keep up the amazing work, bro.!

Good reviews Andy. All very informative and interesting. It's interesting to read your Stairway review as I'm pretty much opposite to how you rate the albums. I'd say No Rest No Mercy and Interregnum were Stairways best 2 albums, you'd say that On Hallowed Ground and The Other Side Of Midnight are. And you thought "Fear And Lies" wasn't a great track, but I like that track the best.

Different strokes I guess

Thanks for all your hard work.

Andy's reviews are always honest, and it's fun to see how he rates stuff compared to my personal tastes. You take the reviews at Jesus Freak Hideout. Typically, if it is a band I think I'll love, they will hate it. They are that predictable. With Angelic Warlord, however, he may love the same albums I do, or he might score them lower. You never know. I like the fact that Andy is thorough and fair, and that he is unpredictable. To me, this shows that he really does listen to each album in depth before throwing together a review. With JFH, I don't think they do much more than put in the disc and skip through it sometimes.

I'll split the difference. So far, I thought "No Rest:No Mercy" and "The Other Side of Midnight" were their best albums.

I just want to thank everyone for their support and kind words- it makes all the time and hard work I put into the site worthwhile.

I guess you could say that a review is one persons opinion of one album. With that in mind, it is interesting how the opinions here vary regarding the best album from Stairway.

Yes, that is correct in that I usually spend more time listening to a CD I plan to review than the writing process of the review itself. So I feel it is important to become acquainted as possible with a CD before putting "pen to paper".

Since everyone else has weighed in on the Stairway album, I might as well do so. I think that "Interregnum" has some good to great songs on it held back by a very thin mix and a weak mastering job. To me, this sounds more demo-ish than a professionally done CD.

That's one of the things that I find quite easy to ignore - the quality of the production. Probably my ears just don't pick up if it's muddy or thin. I almost always just go by 3 ingredients....

1 - The vocals
2 - The lyrics
3 - The music

Production isn't really on the list for me (unlike most people). I'm mean, I'm even a fan of Omega Highway!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have some albums where the production isn't as high and I love them. While I do pay more attention to production since I started recording, it usually isn't the only part of a CD that ruins it for me. With the new Stairway, though, it is a big hinderance. Also, the songs just did not grab me.
