Yes. When I get a chance I'll remove his album from the list and hold it in trust for him, and when he comes back I'll ask whether he still wants to do it, and then decide where it will go after that. Possibly the same for Exo. Anyone else who thinks they might not be here when their turn comes up, please let me know and I'll take the necessary steps.

You know, I'm not sure how many people have got their "reviews" (let's use the air quotes; it was basically a slaughter, wasn't it?) in for the MSI album by now, and I kind of don't care as I don't see any great revelations coming down the line. So anyone who hasn't given their opinion by midnight tonight, please forget about it and let's move on to Museum Mouth, yeah?

I have no particular desire to give the album another chance, so just assume my post was my review and write it down as a hate.

Mindless Self Indulgence - Frankenstein Girls Are Sexy

Starts off kind of fun and interesting. Quickly becomes very irritating, especially the singer. If they had a better singer who had never heard of Korn, I probably would have gotten to the end of the album without dying for it to end. I can hear potential in this sound but this was a failed effort. 3/10

Count my review as a love. I might jot a few words down on it later on.

The general consensus is that you're not missing anything.

Mindless Self Indulgence - Frankenstein Girls Are Sexy

Has some good moments, but not quite as keen on this as the past couple in this club. The thing that lets it down is the production maybe, since 'Golden I" and a few others actually make for listenable pseudo-hip hop but the industrial-tinged beats don't do the rest any favors. 4 out of 10.
