You can just have a note ready to copy paste that goes:

"Sucks ass. Didn't listen."

It metal. Me like metal sometimes.

The current verdict overall is 5.83 out 10. I'll update this number if there are any stragglers who review this after today.

Anything I give over a 5 is basically "I like it" territory. Anything I give an 8 or above is usually something I really dig for one reason or another.

Eh, it's fine. I didn't think this would be a winner, but I thought it was worth a shot.

I guess I think of the scores 7-10 as "worth having on my CD shelves" material, which means most album club albums will probably get 6 or below, since I rarely hear anything here, that I actually want to add to my collection and actively listen to after the review is written. 4-6 still means I got something out of it, so they aren't entirely bad scores on my scale. I don't see the point in having half the scale being subdivisions of "this sucks", so it's only 1-3 that I think of as "not worth my time at all" territory.

Maybe it's my fault to expect Dillinger-esque music with that mathcore tag but it's just way too glitzy in sections for my taste. Reminds me a bit of Avatarium in the sense that they seem stuck in between contrasting attitudes (super melodic, commercial quasi-gothic **** and genuine dynamic metal).
