The challenge is the balancing act of reviewing my back catalog and reviewing new releases (which I don't do enough of)... and keeping it fun, which is the only reason I do it.

Had a look at your web page and its a good looking site, I was even more intrigued by the diversity of your reviews!!! The last thing I expected to see was a band like Symphony X.

Also you need to put some of your Pearl Jam reviews up here (unless you have and I've missed them) this is a band that loads on here like to trash, whilst I think they're one of the best rock bands ever and will defend them till the last

...and man you've not any power metal albums on your site!

See!!! The perfect example of an MB member that dislikes Pearl Jam.

I'll post my Pearl Jam Ten review.

You're right, Power Metal needs some representation. I'm a huge Fates Warning fan, and I've been procrastinating on writing "Awaken the Guardian" for some time (it's one of my favorite metal albums, but I guess it's kind of power-prog metal, and not pure power-metal), but I'll work on that. I'll also work on a Rhapsody of Fire review... see what kind of reaction that gets... they are my ultimate guilty pleasure.

I'd classify Fates Warning as more prog metal, but yeah the John Arch era did have some heavy power metal input as well.
