I have accumulated many personal reviews while listening to albums. My reviewing style is non-conventional and was only intended for myself. Sometimes I will only use one sentence to describe an album if I feel that is all that's required. Other times I will review an album while I'm still listening to it, leading to a song-by-song review of the album (bringing the size of the review to nearly dissertation-level). There are times when I will even come back to a review to add information that I didn't know when originally writing the review. The point is that I won't edit my reviews to make them more readable or conventional. My reviews are always a direct result of what I was feeling when I wrote them and I want to let that feeling come through.

Soulfly - The Dark Ages [2005]

More of what I'd expect from Soulfly. It feels like a return to Max's thrash roots, but it doesn't sacrifice too much of the unique ethnic instruments and tribal feel. That said, it's definitely not as creative as previous efforts. However, it's really cool to hear Max go back to a thrashier style.

Rating: 8.5
