Is this Malevolent Creation? Well done recording, regardless.

I just read that Dave Culross has left Malevolent Creation. No reason was given. This sucks.
Its funny to look at the scored this album got compared to The Will To Kill. The only difference is that Doomsday X got an extra .5 in the songwriting. Honestly, the production on Doomsday is kinda crappy compared to The Will to Kill. This new album is predictable and disapointed me, cause I had high expectations. I enjoy The Will to Kill and Warkult more than this new one.

I think this is a great review, short and sweet. Gotta agree with Stalker down there. I don't own any Malevolent Creation albums but they seem like the kind of band that if you're a fan you're gonna buy the album anyway so why whine about it? Sounds like if a long time fan of the band you'll like it so if you're not this review seems about enough to make me want to check them out.

This is no bullshit metal that doesn't need to be over analyzed. The review was fun and it doesn't need to be any more informative than it is. If it was overly informative, then I am sure people would bitch about that too. Those of you who did not find this review amusing probably got up on the wrong side of the crib in the morning (no offense) If you don't know much about M.C. and you don't like this review, then listen to the album, gather up your own personal impressions and write a reader review..Different outlooks are appreciated by even the reviewers themselves.

Wow, this review is really pointless and silly. How about a real review, where you point out why you gave it those scores.
I really was expecting so much more from MC. The guitars seem a little too much in the background; the album actually reminds me of the production on The Fine Art of Murder. Not sure why people didnt care ofr Warkult; I enjoyed that album a lot.
Doomsday X is a good album, but because I had such high expectations, I was a little disapointed. Deliver My Enemy is actually kinda boring to me. Culture of Doubt, on the other hand, kicks ass.
