I think that's a really fair position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony R Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 (edited) If fans sign up and review it (ie not just "rate it") its standing will increase in terms of "best album of 2012" It is of course totally free to join and writing reviews can be very rewarding. Why not give it a go? Sign up: http://www.progarchives.com/forum/registration_rules.asp? Then review Clockwork Angels: http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=37527#postAReview You can just rate it (ie assign it a score out of 5) but that won't really affect its overall standing that much as written reviews carry more weight. - Rating only: Weight = 1 - Review by members : Weight = 10 - Review by PA Collaborators : Weight = 20 Edited July 24, 2012 by Tony R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tombstone Mountain Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I enjoyed reading your review tony. You gave it a fantastic mark, and deservedly so. In my mind Seven Cities of Gold deserves more love than you give it, but hey, it's your review!!! I posted it on my review thread, please don't be angry. Thanks for a well written and concise review!

Thanks. I've just tickled up some of the formatting and the odd dropped sentence, so the review might have changed slightly since you reproduced it.

It's a Prog site so people have varying opinions of what is and isn't Prog and rate accordingly whereas if they were reviewing them as purely "rock" albums they might give them a different score.

I don't give 2 shits if people agree with me or not , that is not the point. The fact that S&A is that high on that list makes me cringe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
