You might ask, what happens when a band gets a bad review and responds ? Well. This...
First read the review- http://www.yourband.info/index.php?q=node/134 Then read the response http://www.yourband.info/index.php?q=node/137 |

ooff. bummer. it's hard for bands when they leave the basement.
so here are the points: 1 the chick can sing, which seems important to the band. band wins. (+1) 2 the reply wasn't anywhere near as humorous as the non-review. band loses. (-1) 3 they are totally tasteless and cheesy and it's hard to be as funny as a critic when you're totally tasteless and cheesy. band loses. (-1) 4 Seven Years Past is 508 metal. can't blame the reviewers for that. band loses. (-1) final score below: reviewers 0. band -2. game over. |

Seems your scoring system hasa flaw.  |

Humans are flawed, therefore, Music is flawed because it is created by humans. Therefore any system used to measure it is flawed. However, since this statement was created by a human it is flawed so it must be untrue; So therefore your system of measurement is perfect as is all music.    |

found sound is not created by humans, sounds from nature......
but then again, if a tree fell in the woods would it make a sound if there was nothing there to record it? |

To be fair, their response was about a thousand times more lucid than I expected. And they're right - people LOVE bad music. I don't question in any way that they outdrew all the other bands combined.
