The Wombats Proudly Present... A Guide To Love, Loss And Desperation - Wombats
Brilliant Debut album
Has a few songs that let the album down
The Final Experiment - Ayreon
Ambitious and enthusiastic rock opera for sci-fi/fantasy fans.
Confusing moral message, some really bad lyrics and some boring songs.
Suffer - Bad Religion
great songs, bad religion at their best
some of the guitar needs sorting out
Revelation - Armored Saint
Solid modern heavy metal with good vocals.
Doesn't recapture the old spirit.
No Control - Bad Religion
some amazing songs
none
Minutes To Midnight - Linkin Park
Great CD, lots of great songs on it
not exactly what linkin park fans are used to
How Could Hell Be Any Worse - Bad Religion
Classic Californian punk, with a nicely raw sound.
Few songs distinguish themselves.
Evil Is Forever - Astral Doors
An improvement with further power metal influence and epic songs done properly.
Hammond organ and other hard rock throwbacks.
Actual Fantasy - Ayreon
Approachable Ayreon without the flamboyance.
Less distinctive and exciting as a result.
01011001 - Ayreon
Interesting concept and some enjoyable prog metal for Ayreon fans.
Feels like a derivative step backwards, and constrained by concept.
