Europe - Dreamer

I like it. It's not the best track I've heard, but it's enough to get me excited for the full release.

Yeah I don't mind his vocals but it doesn't keep me really liking this disc as the songs are generally great! I'm still holding out for WOA and Electric Boys, which I'll probably enjoy more than anyone here.

Actually, look for Hawaiian shirts to make a slight comeback this year.

genuine question, cos i dont know............ who are u by the way - linked to the band or just fan?? Yeah I'm not linked to the band at all just a fan, that was just the first name that came to mind when signing up here. I'll admit not the best choice, especially when posting in a thread about De La Cruz But yeah no connections to the band don't even live on the same continent haha Perhaps you might consider giving a formal "hello" in the introduction section. Unless you already have.

Beautiful Eulogy - Covet

Yep. I not a fan of his vocals either. And, agreeing with Glen again, I do think he's more bearable on this release. Still, it, along with some boring tracks, is what keeps me from loving this.

Breakbot - Break of Dawn

Still? Haha! Once I find some time, I'll give my impressions. In short, it was incredible. Hopefully I can do it again next year.

Ha. You ain't never lie.

Campbell the Band - Through Your Veins

Corny Lyrics On Wanking Naked Sluts ;-)) This might just be my favorite post of 2013. Just some more quantity quality from Jezzer.

Who are you, and what did you do with Cody? Just a brilliant album, what more can be said? one of those albums I truly appreciate, wish there was more of them. That's generally how I feel, but then you find a few more paragraphs to add. ;}

Edguy - Mandrake Avantasia - The Metal Opera Pt I Avantasia - The Metal Opera Pt II

I really like 7 Days & 7Nights! Me, too. And "Too Much of Everything." I honestly love that album front-to-back. Every track. I've spun it to death, and it still gives me life.

KIX - KIX KIX - Midnite Dynamite KIX - Show Business

Donkeyboy - Silver Moon

Dallas - Open Your Heart

Was it a Metalcore-type scream? More an exorcism scream. She meant it. Oh. Well, then, no, it doesn't count. ;}

Preach. You know it would help if you quit being a smart ass and jump in and help me make my point so I dont have to preach, smart ass! Nah, I'm good. ;} At What? All things.

For me they have their equal share of gems and fillers. I could easily compile 15 killer cuts across their releases tho. Good band and I have a feeling this could be pretty damned nice. looking forward to it. Fair enough mate, I just can't stand any of their songs, but I know I'll be in the minority here. Each to his own, of course. I imagine you'd be less than impressed if I played you some Bolt Thrower... Actually I need to know your hate in the first place of The Poodles because they're basically a very nice melodic metal/hard rock mix of a band. Is it because only 1-2 songs and you tend to ignore the last 2 albums ? No, just that I've heard two of their albums (probably the first two) and didn't find a single song I liked! I like the sound that the band makes, but for me the songs are just incredibly uninteresting. Try "Clash of the Elements." Easily their best. I've never been able to pin down your taste, James, but there has to be one track on that album you'd appreciate.

Phil Wickham - Because of Your Love

Yeah. I liked Performocracy, but it didn't live up to the brilliance that is Clash of the Elements. This one has some promising song titles, if that's anything to go by.
