My Mission
My aim is to review the 3000 greatest albums of all time! I am using a list taken from the Acclaimed Music Website (www.acclaimedmu.... Do I have the stamina to review them all? Only time will tell. I also do a few "off list" reviews: some new releases, some albums I like that are not on the list, and some *request reviews*. If you want to request a review of an album (I'm not making any promises) leave a comment on any video on the channel. More details in this intro video: • [Request Reviews] Intr...
My Ethos
These reviews are intended for a "general audience", I try not to assume specialist or genre-specific knowledge, and I try to make these reviews accessible rather than elitist. I am more interested in what an album is like as a standalone listening experience than the importance or contribution of an album to the art of music. I give context, description and opinion, and try to keep it short and snappy. Want to know more about why I am doing this, and what my process is? Check out this video: • 3000 Best Albums Revie...

I have a soft spot for that one because I had a nu metal "phase" as a teen, the front half holds up pretty well which is not the case of much of the other stuff from that scene.

I was personally more taken with System of a Down, but also bizarrely discovered Cradle of Filth about this time too.

[@GenteelCretin]

hey, you pronounced "des moines" correctly.
a sizable chunk of americans can't manage that.
congrats.

Thanks :) Having been brought up with the BBC, I like to get pronunciation right when I can. There's plenty of stuff in this list that I'm having to guess at.
