That's funny re: Rose Coil, because I remember it getting a lot of good press when people started discovering it. I hope MA doesn't become the YouTube comment section of metal reviews.
ReplyDeleteI don't that will happen, they take the reviews quite seriously. But the 0% rating is ridiculous of course, and the review read more like the writer wants to make a point about modern metal.
